Depreciation (AO2)
When businesses buy fixed assets the value of the asset will change
The increase in the value of fixed assets over time is known as appreciation
However, most fixed assets tend to decrease in their value over time and is known as depreciation
Depreciation spreads the historic cost (purchase cost) of a fixed asset over its useful lifespan
![Page 8: 1. Final Accounts Pages 267 - 271 2 Topic 3.4 (HL)](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649c945503460f94950327/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Depreciation (AO2)
There are two main reasons for depreciation:
Wear and tear: fixed assets like computers, motor vehicles, etc. will fall in value as they are used over and over. As a result, such assets become less valuable to a buyer and so the value is depreciated
Obsolete assets: with newer and better products become available, these will reduce the demand for existing fixed assets. Obsolete assets e.g. old version of computers and software will fetch little value if sold. Hence their value needs to be depreciated
![Page 9: 1. Final Accounts Pages 267 - 271 2 Topic 3.4 (HL)](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649c945503460f94950327/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Depreciation (AO2) The changes in the value of fixed assets are
shown by reassessing the value of the assets on a balance sheet.
Depreciation needs to be recorded in order to:
o calculate the value of a business more accurately ie revaluing assets that have appreciated is likely to increase the net
o realistically assess the value of fixed assets over time as historical or purchase cost of fixed assets is unlikely to be equal to its current market value
o plan for the replacement of assets in the future. Provisions are made in order to replace the cost of purchasing new fixed assets.

Depreciation (AO2)
There are two main methods of calculating depreciation:
o Straight Line
o Declining or Reducing Balance
![Page 11: 1. Final Accounts Pages 267 - 271 2 Topic 3.4 (HL)](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649c945503460f94950327/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Depreciation (AO2)
Straight Line Method: Annual depreciation = Purchase cost /
lifespan
Example: An electronic security system is bought for
$25,000 and is expected to last five years.
Annual depreciation = 25 000 / 5 = 5000

Depreciation (AO2)
Straight Line Method: Residual value: an estimate of the scrap or
disposed value of the asset at the end of its useful life.
Annual depreciation = (Historical or Purchase cost minus Residual value) / Lifespan
Example: An electronic security system is bought for
$25,000 and is expected to last five years. It is also expected to fetch a second-hand value of $5,000 in 5 years time.

Depreciation (AO2)
Straight Line Method: Straight-line method is straightforward and
simple to understand.
Limitations: fixed assets are depreciated by an equal amount each year which is unrealistic as most assets lose a much larger percentage of their value at the beginning of their useful life eg motor vehicles, etc.
![Page 18: 1. Final Accounts Pages 267 - 271 2 Topic 3.4 (HL)](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649c945503460f94950327/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Depreciation (AO2)
Reducing Balance Method: Depreciating assets at a constant rate each
year
Net book value = Historical cost minus (less) Cumulative depreciation
Using the same example: An electronic security system is bought for $25,000 and is expected to last five years.
Thus, using the reducing balance method of depreciation to depreciate the security system, say at an annual rate of 25%, the book value at the end of each year will be:

Depreciation (AO2)
Reducing Balance Method: This method is not easy to calculate and
deciding on the rate of annual depreciation is not always a simple task.
However, fixed assets are depreciated by a larger amount in the earlier years of its useful life which is more representative of fixed assets i.e. this method is more realistic in representing the declining market value of fixed assets.

Question 1:The manager of Collison Ltd has purchased a new piece of equipment to help speed up the production line. The equipment cost $50,000 and is expected to last for five years. At the end of this period the equipment can be traded in for the value of $4000.
Calculate the depreciation for each year on the asset using both methods. Show the net book value for the equipment at the end of each of the 5 years for each method (assume that 40% is to be used for the reducing balance method).

Question 2Fiona Palmer, a sole trader purchases a delivery van for the sum of $12,000. It has as estimated life of 6 years and a trade-in value of $3,000. Palmer is not sure whether to use the straight line or the reducing balance method when providing for deprecation on the van.
You are required to calculate the annual depreciation on the van using both methods.
Show the balance remaining - the net book value - on the van at the end of each of the 6 years for each method (assume that 20% is to be used for the reducing balance method).

Depreciation (AO2)
Reducing Balance Method: Amortisation is similar to depreciation but is
used to reduce the value of intangible assets on a balance sheet.
Examples: copyrights and patents near the expiry date or IPR tends to fall in value over time.
