Amount of depreciation is fixed. Useful to assets whose service remain uniform throughout the year. For eg: Furniture & fixtures 2) WRITTEN DOWN VALUE METHOD
Depreciation calculated on the distance run by the transportation means. 8) LABOUR HOUR RATE METHOD
Mostly used in mines to calculate the depreciation on production. 11) STATUATORY METHOD
13. STRAIGHT LINE METHOD It is a very popular method because its simplicity & consistency. A fixed amount of original cost is charged as a depreciation every year. . Annual depreciation =cost of the assets- residual value Estimated economic life 14. STRAIGHT LINE METHOD DISADVANTAGES It ignores the fact that the service yielding ability of the asset fall while the repairs & maintenance cost increase with the passage of time. If an additional asset is acquired, the amount to be charged as depreciation needs to be calculated. ADVANTAGES It is simple to calculate & easy to understand. It can reduce the book value of the asset to zero. The valuation of the asset each year in the balance sheet is reasonably fair. 15. WRITTEN DOWN VALUE METHOD Amount of depreciation goes on declining every year and is recognized by income tax law. LIFE OF ASSETS 16. ESTIMATION OF WRITTEN DOWN VALUE METHOD ADVANTAGES

Easy calculation. Balanced effect on profit or loss account of different years. Approved method by income . . tax authorities. Logical method. Suitable for assets having long . . life. DISADVANTAGES
o o o o o
The value of asset can not be reduced to zero. No funds for replacement. Loss of interest. Higher rate of depreciation. Inequal burden on profit and loss account.

Disclosure in the F.S The depreciation methods used The total depreciation for the period for each class of assets The gross amount of class of assets and related accumulated depreciation Other accounting policies ( relevant to depreciation) The depreciation rates or useful lives of assets if they are different from principal rates A change in the method of depreciation is considered as a change in accounting policy 19. Disposal of Depreciation Assets Important clarification u/s 350 of Companies Act 1956
o o o o
Depreciation should be charged even if assets remain idle Depreciation should be provided on immovable assets The number of shifts (double or multiple) for which the assets has been used should be considered for depreciation For depreciation charge , Written Down Value(WDV)-is suggested though straight line method can also be adopted
