Depreciation is the amount charged off to the Profit & Loss
Account of a financial period over the life of a long-term
asset (Fixed or Capital Asset). The purpose is to spread the
cost of investment in an asset over the period of it's
useful life. Depreciation is charged at the rates and as per
the method specified in the applicable Statutory Law/s in
any country. It recognises the reduction in the value of an
asset due to passage of time, use, obsolescence, etc.
