Answer Posted / h.r. sreepada bhagi
The rate & method of depreciation to be taken for any asset
depends up on for what purpose it's used (This's India
specific answer)
- Whether for accounting under the Companies Act, 1956.
- Whether for Computation of taxable Income under the
Income Tax Act, 1961.
- Whether for the purpose of product Costing.
* For accounting purpose the rates & guidelines are given in
the Schedule to the Companies Act, 1956. It may be WDV or
SLM of depreciation.
* For computation of Taxable Income, rates & method is given
in the Income Tax Act, 1961 (Refer latest edition of IT Act
or Ready Reckoner - You will find rates under both IT Act &
the Companies Act. - The rates under the Companies Act may
be higher than it's mentioned in the Schedule with
justification note to the Financial Statements)
* For Costing purpose, the best method is to divide the Cost
of the Asset/Machinery (As reduced by residual value, if
any) by the estimated life of the asset to arrive at the
annual depreciation or divided it by the estimated qty. of
output over its estimated life to arrive at depreciation per
unit.
Of course there are other methods of calculating
depreciation for the purpose of costing.
