The straight-line depreciation method and the double-declining-balance depreciation method:

A) Produce the same total depreciation over an asset's useful life.
B) Produce the same depreciation expense each year.
C) Produce the same book value each year.
D) Are acceptable for tax purposes only.
E) Are the only acceptable methods of depreciation for financial reporting.

The straight-line depreciation method and the double-declining-balance depreciation method do not produce the same depreciation expense each year, but they both result in the same total depreciation expense over an asset's useful life. Therefore, option A is the correct choice. The other options are incorrect as both methods are acceptable for financial reporting and tax purposes, they do not produce the same depreciation expense each year or the same book value each year.
