Hi leedo

From your description, I think you can do the following:
1) for Prorate (1-15) same month (16-30) following month, you define the prorate like this 16-Jan till 15-Feb period Feb-08 & continue each period like this.

2) For depreciation, you must define the rates in the depreciation method for this asset category then define the asset for 1st year [@] 40%, after the year are finished you can update the rate for this asset to be 30%.

Hope I can help you
Thanks
Hisham
