Q » Explain depreciation and its methods.
06 Dec, 2025
A » Depreciation is the accounting process of allocating the cost of a tangible asset over its useful life. Its primary methods include straight-line, declining balance, and sum-of-the-years'-digits. The straight-line method spreads the cost evenly, the declining balance accelerates it, and the sum-of-the-years'-digits method applies a decreasing fraction. Each method impacts financial statements and tax obligations differently, influencing business decisions on asset management and investment.
