Straight line method means charging depreciation on the
original cost of goods and written down method means
charging depreciation on balance amount every year.

Answer / suresh
SLM - under SLM an equal amount of charge(Dep)is reduced
from the original value of the asset every year based on a
certain %.
WDV - under WDV the charge(Dep)is calculated and reduced
every year on the reduced amount from the previous year
again based on certain %
Expl:
Original Cost of Car 100,000
Rate of Dep 10% every year
Depreciation calculation:
SLM
1 year 10,000(10% of 100,000)
2 year 10,000(10% of 100,000)
3 year 10,000(10% of 100,000) and so on....
WDV
1 year 10,000(10% of 100,000)
2 year 9,000(10% of 100,000-10,000=90,000)
3 year 8,100(10% of 100,000-10,000-9,000=81,000)
and so on....

Normally the amount written off every year is the same in
Straight line depreciation method and it differs in Written
down method as the depreciated amount is calculated on the
written down value.
