Plant, property and equipment make up a large part of an entity’s non-current assets and so it is important to be able to account for them correctly to ensure that the true value of the entity is reported.

More formally defined a non-current asset is expected to provide an entity future economic benefit from its use, lasting an entity more than 12 months for the purpose of earning revenue during day to day business activities. http://www.weallstartsomewhere.com/images/entryac.gif [hide][/hide] |

Depreciation Buildings, computers, vehicles and machinery can only last so long before they need to be knocked down, traded in or simply disposed of. Depreciation is an expense that is distributed over each period of an assets estimated useful life and makes up a large portion of an entity’s annual expenses. The following depreciation methods are covered in this tutorial:Straight line method: The straight line depreciation method is the most basic and thus the most commonly used depreciation method. It allocates an equal amount of depreciation expense over the assets estimated useful life. Declining balance method: The declining balance depreciation method allocates a certain percentage of depreciation expense over the assets estimated useful life. Therefore, as time progresses, less and less depreciation is recorded in each period. This is a reasonable approach to take. Sum of digits method: the sum of digits method allocates a greater amount of depreciation in the earlier years of the assets life. Depreciation is calculated as the book value multiplied by years remaining in the assets estimated life divided by the sum of digits. Units of production method: The units of production depreciation method depreciates an asset on the bases of how much it is used, or rather, how many units of output the asset produces. The most common asset that is depreciated this way would be manufacturing machinery http://www.weallstartsomewhere.com/images/entrydep.gif حمل من هنـــــــــــــــــــــــا [hide][/hide] |

Entities may chose to trade in their old asset for a new one, in which case, the journal entries will change. The tutorial also covers the closing off of the accumulated depreciation account and the transfer of gains and losses to the profit and loss summary account. http://www.weallstartsomewhere.com/images/entrydis.gif حمل من هنـــــــــــــــــــــــــا [hide]http://a7lashare.com//./extension/pdf.gif[/hide] |
