l.4 ACCOUNTING FOR DEPRECIATION

[CMA FOUNDATION D01, 4 Marks] Question 1: Write short notes on Depreciation. Answer: Depreciation is a loss in value of an Asset. It is measure of wearing out, consumption, or other loss in value of Depreciable Asset arising from use and passage of time. As per IAS4 - ‚Depreciation is the allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its estimated useful life.‛ Depreciation Accounting: Depreciation Accounting is the process of allocation and not valuation.

[CMA INTER SY08, D12, 3 Marks] Question 2: State the criteria which should be fulfilled by a depreciable asset as per AS6 Answer: Depreciable Assets are assets which are: used during more than one year having a limited useful life held by an enterprise for use in : o

the production or supply of goods and services

o

for renting to others

o

for administrative purposes

o

not for the purpose of sale in the ordinary course of business.

Question 3: What is depreciable amount? Answer: Depreciable amount = historical cost – scarp value Depreciable amount of a depreciable asset should be allocated on a systematic basis to each accounting period during its useful life.

[CMA INTER J09, 5 Marks] Question 4: What are the objectives of charging depreciation and problems of measurement of depreciation? Explain. Answer: Prime objectives for providing Depreciation are: 1.

Correct income measurement: Depreciation should be charged for proper estimation of periodic profit or loss.

2.

True position statement: Value of the fixed assets should be adjusted for depreciation charged in order to depict the actual financial position.

Financial Accounting

4.1

3.

Funds for replacement: Generation of adequate funds in the hands of the business for replacement of the asset at the end of its useful life.

4.

Ascertainment of true cost of production: For ascertaining the cost of the production, it is necessary to charge depreciation as on item of cost of production.

Question 5: What is the nature of depreciation? 1.

Depreciation is non-cash operating expense which is to be provided whether there are profits or losses.

2.

Depreciation is concerned with historical cost and not with the fluctuations in market price.

Question 6: What are the Causes of Depreciation? 1.

Physical wear and tear. [permanent and continuous decrease in the book value of fixed assets due to use]

2.

Effluxion of time [Passage of time]

3.

Obsolescence [out-dated] [the economic deterioration by change in technology or taste or fashion]

4.

Depletion [physical deterioration of natural resources like ore deposits in mines, oil wells]

5.

Changes in economic environment

6.

Expiration of legal rights.

Question 7: What is amortization and dilapidation? Answer: Amortization refers to the economic deterioration of intangible assets like goodwill, patent obsolescence. Dilapidation - In one sentence Dilapidation means a state of deterioration due to old age or long use. This term refers to damage done to a building or other property during tenancy.

Question 8: What are the factors affecting Amount of Depreciation 1.

Historical Cost

2.

Expected Useful life

3.

Estimated Residual Value.

Note: All expenses incurred till the asset is put to use are treated as capital nature and hence form part of historical cost. Problems of measurement of depreciation are: 1.

Estimated useful life may be incorrect and misleading.

2.

Certain uncertain factors affect predetermined quantum of depreciation.

Question 9: What are the methods of recording depreciation? Answer: Two Methods of Recording Depreciation

1

By Charging to Asset A/c

By Creating Provision for Depreciation A/c

Depreciation is credited to Asset A/c

Question 10: Most Commonly Employed 2 Methods of Providing Depreciation 1.

Straight Line Method (SLM)

2.

Written Down Value (WDV) Method

Question 11: Write short note disclosure requirements as per AS6 Answer: The historical cost of each class of assets; Total depreciation for the period. The related accumulated depreciation; Depreciation methods used; and Depreciation rates (if they are different from the principal rates specified in the statute governing the enterprise.)

Question 12: Distinction between Straight Line Method and Written Down Value Method Straight Line Method differs from Written Down Value Method in the following respects: Basis of

Question 14: When can a Change in Method of Depreciation be made? Answer: If adoption of new method is required 1.

By Statue.

2.

To comply with accounting standard.

3.

To have more appropriate preparation & presentation of financial statements of enterprise

Question 15: Write a note on accounting for the retrospective effect in case of change in method of depreciation. Answer: Depreciation should be recalculated as per new method from the date of asset coming into use. Treatment of Deficiency: The deficiency should be debited to Statement of Profit & Loss Treatment of Surplus: The surplus should be credited to Statement of Profit & Loss.

[CMA FOUNDATION D02, 4 Marks] Question 16: Distinguish between depreciation and reserve. Answer: Depreciation is the process of allocating the cost of a Fixed Asset over its estimated useful life in a rational and systematic manner, whereas Reserve is an appropriation of profit. Due to depreciation, net profit is reduced but Reserve does not affect the net profit. Reserves are created to strengthen financial position and to meet unforeseen losses, whereas depreciation is provided to ascertain the correct profit and correct book value of fixed asset. Reserves are the undistributed profits and belong to the owner’s equity. Depreciation is a rational estimate of a decline in the usefulness of an Asset due to consumption, use, passage of time, technological changes etc.

PRACTICAL PROBLEMS

Calculation of Amount of Depreciation under SLM, WDV, DDM and SDY Question 1: Calculate amount of depreciation under Straight Line Method, Written Down Value Method, Sum of the Years’ Digits Method and Double Decline Method Original Value of the Asset – ₹65,000 False – useful life is always shorter than physical life False – sinking fund considers interest for the reinvestment not as a charge but in annuity method of depreciation, interest on investment in assets is considered as a charge. 3 True – the amount of depreciation is accumulated in a separate fund called sinking fund. 4 False – Both are the same methods. Depreciation is computed by applying a fixed rate on the diminish balance which is known as written down value. 5 False – They differ on the basis of time factor. 10% p.a. implies that time factor is to be considered while calculating depreciation. Whereas simply 10% implies that time factor is immaterial for calculation. 6 True – it is a non-cash expenses 7 False – Land is not a depreciable asset except if the useful life of the land is given. 8 True 9 Charge 1 2

In addition, Pensive Oil estimates that it will incur a site restoration cost of ₹57,000 once extraction is complete, so the total depletion base of the property is ₹600,000. Pensive’s geologists estimate that the proven oil reserves that are accessed by the well are 400,000 barrels.
