What to Focus On

  • Depreciation is a non-cash expense.
  • It arises due to wear and tear, passage of time, or obsolescence.
  • It is charged to match the cost of the asset with the revenue it generates.
  • Wear and tear due to usage reduces efficiency.
  • Passage of time causes physical deterioration.
  • Obsolescence occurs due to technological advances or changes in market demand.
  • Ensures true profit is shown in the Profit and Loss Account.
  • Prevents overstatement of asset values in the Balance Sheet.
  • Helps in building a fund for asset replacement.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Scrap value is subtracted only if the asset is actually sold at the end.

Depreciation is charged on the original cost every year under Diminishing Balance Method.

Installation and transportation costs are not part of asset cost.
