This guide provides an overview of depreciation, focusing on its calculation and the importance of understanding it for non-current assets. It covers the basic formula for depreciation—cost of the asset minus the expected sale value divided by useful life. For example, a copier purchased for $6,000 expected to sell for $300 after four years results in an annual depreciation expense of $1,425. Learn about reporting depreciation and accumulated depreciation to gauge asset wear over time, essential for accounting and financial reporting.

Let’s go over Depreciation before the test on
Depreciation • The cost of the non current asset less how much we think we will sell it ÷ how long we will have it. Cost less Sale Value Useful life
Restoration Doors purchased a new photocopier $6000 to be sold for $300 in 4 year Cost less Sales value Useful life 6000 – 300 4 = $1425 Depreciation Expense per year
Accumulated Depreciation • Every year that a business owns a Non Current Asset, the Depreciation Expense is added together (or Accumulated). • This is to estimate how much the Non Current Asset has worn out over its useful life.
