Content Revision: What are Fixed Assets? What is Depreciation ? Causes of Depreciation 2 Methods of Calculating Depreciation Charge per year Example 1 Example 2 Straight line Method Reducing Balance Method More Examples Exercise 1 Exercise 2
Revision: What are Fixed Assets ? Content • Long life; Used in the business; Not bought for resale; Here are some examples:
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation is an expense resulting in a loss of value of the cost of a fixed assets during a period of time.
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation is an expense resulting in a loss of value of the cost of a fixed assets lost during a period of time. I bought a computer on 1.1.98 at $10,000 but now its value is only $6,000. Depreciation = ? One year later COST = $10,000 VALUE = $6,000
What is Depreciation ? Content • Depreciation is an expense resulting in a loss of value of the cost of a fixed assets lost during a period of time. I bought a computer in 1.1.98 at $10,000 but now its value is only $6,000. Depreciation = $10,000 - $6,000 = $4,000 One year later COST = $10,000 VALUE = $6,000
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value Example 1: Cost of buying Machine is $1,000 in 1-1-96. 1-1-96 Cost = $1,000 Machine 31-12-96 Disposal value = $800 Machine
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value Example 1: Cost of buying Machine is $1,000 in 1-1-96. 1-1-96 Cost = $1,000 Find depreciation in 1996. Machine Depreciation = Cost - Disposal value = ? 31-12-96 Disposal value = $800 Machine
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value Example 1: Cost of buying Machine is $1,000 in 1-1-96. 1-1-96 Cost = $1,000 Find depreciation in 1996. Machine Depreciation = Cost - Disposal value = $1,000 - $800 = $200 31-12-96 Disposal value = $800 Machine
What is Depreciation? Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value Example 2: Cost of buying Machine is $1,000 in 1-1-96. 1-1-96 Cost = $1,000 Machine 31-12-98 Disposal value = $100 Machine
What is Depreciation? (continued) Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value Example 2: Cost of buying Machine is $1,000 in 1-1-96. 1-1-96 Cost = $1,000 Machine Find the amount of depreciation for 3 years. Depreciation = Cost - Disposal value = ? 31-12-98 Disposal value = $100 Machine
What is Depreciation? (continued) Content • Depreciation = Cost - Disposal Value Example 2: Cost of buying Machine is $1,000 in 1-1-96. 1-1-96 Cost = $1,000 Machine Find the amount of depreciation for 3 years. Depreciation = Disposal value - Cost = $1,000 - $100 = $900 31-12-98 Disposal value = $100 Machine
Causes of Depreciation Content • Physical Depreciation • Economic Factors • Obsolescence • Inadequacy • The Time Factor • Depletion
2 Methods of Calculating Depreciation Charges. Content Straight line Method Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Reducing Balance Method Example 1 Example 2 Example 3
Straight Line Method Content • Depreciation each year =
Straight Line Method (Continued) Content • Depreciation each year = Example 1: Cost of machine in 1.1.1996 = $2,000; Disposal Value in 1.1.1999 = $500; Useful Year (1.1.96 - 1.1.99) = 3 Years. Depreciation charge each year = ?
Straight Line Method (Continued) Content • Depreciation each year = Example 1: Cost of machine in 1.1.1996 = $2,000; Disposal Value in 1.1.1999 = $500; Useful Year = 3 Years. Depreciation charge each year = = $500/year
Straight Line Method (Continued) Content • Depreciation each year = • Example 1 Cost of machine in 1.1.1996 = $2,000; Disposal Value in 1.1.1999 = $500; Useful Year = 3 Years. Depreciation each year = = $500/year 1.1.96 $2,000 (COST) 31.12.96 $2,000 - $500 = $1,500 (NET BOOK VALUE) 31.12.97 $2,000 - $500 - $500 = $1,000 (NET BOOK VALUE) 31.12.98 $2,000 - $500 - $500 - $500 = $500 (DISPOSAL VALUE)
Straight Line Method (Continued) Content • Example 2 A firm bought a machine for $50,000. It is expected to be used for six years then sold for $5,000. What is the annual amount of depreciation if the straight line method is used? A. $7,000 B. $8,000 C. $7,500 D. $6,500 How ?
