Under which method of Depreciation, the written down
value of the asset is always more than zero: Refer to the following information to answer the next 4 questions (Q15 to Q18) Depreciation is an accounting method used to allocate the cost of a tangible asset over its useful life. Tangible assets, such as machinery, vehicles, buildings, and equipment, gradually lose their value over time due to factors such as wear and tear, obsolescence, or technological advancements. Depreciation reflects this decrease in value and helps businesses accurately represent the true cost of using an asset in their financial statements. There are various methods of calculating depreciation, each method has its own set of rules and assumptions, and the choice of method often depends on factors such as the nature of the asset and its expected pattern of use. Depreciation is a crucial concept in accounting that helps businesses accurately account for the wear and tear of tangible assets, ensuring that financial statements provide a more realistic picture of the costs associated with using these assets over their useful lives.Solution
Under the written down value (WDV) method of depreciation, the WDV of the asset is always more than zero. The WDV of an asset is the value of the asset after deducting the accumulated depreciation from its original cost. Under the WDV method, depreciation is charged at a fixed percentage on the WDV of the asset each year, which means that the WDV will decrease each year. However, the WDV can never be zero or less than zero because the asset still has some value, even if it has been fully depreciated.
