Written Down Value Method

I know to find out WDV for depreciation (1-n [scrap /cost], through calculator (12 times square root ), but I don't know the logic behind that, could you please explain that or can I do it manually.

If we deduct dep from cost of asset during its useful life the remaining value will be scrap value, which can be calculated from following equation:

cost x (1-dep rate/100)^useful life = scrap value

from above equation, formula for calculating dep under wdv method derived.
