Depreciation and CapEx Converging in Terminal Year

I know that depreciation and CapEx need to converge in the terminal year...say I forecast out 5 years and my depreciation is as follows:

Depreciation:
Year 1: 200
Year 2: 210
Year 3: 220
Year 4: 230
Year 5: 245

Suppose the forecasts from Management have CapEx as follows

CapEx:
Year 1: 150
Year 2: 160
Year 3: 170
Year 4: 180
Year 5: 200

How should they converge in the terminal year - should I set CapEx equal to depreciation, set depreciation equal to CapEx, some up with a number in the middle, or re-do the forecasts so they start converging over the forecasted period.

Thanks!
