Financial Modeling Case Study

Hi all, 

I'm working on a typical 3 statement modeling case study where I'm given an IS with 3 years of historical (annual) and a projection period of 10 years (annual) but is missing depreciation expense. I'm also given a BS with the most recent 2 years of historicals (annual). For new PP&E, there's 48 months of depreciation and I've prepared a schedule for this but my question is surrounding what to do with the pre-existing depreciation. Let's say it's 15m, is it okay to make an assumption that it declines by some amount, say the 48 months and add that to the new calculated depreciation?
