DEPRECIATION

DEPRECIATION OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENTProperty , Plant and Equipment are long lived tangible assets such as land, building, furniture, machinery and equipment used in the operation of the business. All plant assets but land decline in value in usefulness as they age. This decline in value because of usage is an expense of the business. This is called Depreciation expense. To compute for depreciation, the accountants systematically spread the cost of the plant asset over the years of its useful life.

Depreciation means the systematic allocation of the cost of a depreciable asset to expense over assets useful life.

HOW TO COMPUTE FOR DEPRECIATION:

There are several methods of determining the amount of depreciation to be charged as an expense of each accounting period. The most widely used means of estimating depreciation is the STRAIGHT LINE METHOD OF DEPRECIATION.

Under the straight line approach, an equal portion of the assets cost is allocated to depreciation expense in every period of the assets estimated useful life.

The formula for computing depreciation expense by straight line method is as follows:

Depreciation Expense/year = Cost of the PPE Salvage Value Estimated Useful lifePro-forma Adjusting Journal Entry:
