Depreciation Calculation Example 2

Asset acquired in the middle of the fiscal year using Fiscal Year basis.

System-Wide Configuration: Spread "Catch-Up" among Remaining Periods in FY

FY: Calendar Year (January to December)
New Asset: Acquired July 2000
Cost: $ 12,000
Depr Method: S/L 5 (20% each year). Fiscal Year Basis
Annual Depr: (Years 1 to 5) 12,000 * 20% = 2,400
Current FY/Pd: FY: 2000 Pd: 7
Depr Yr/Pds Remaining: Depr YR:1 Pds Remaining: 6 (at time of initialization)

Basic Formula

Annual Depr

_______________________________________

# Pds Remaining in FY

(Including Current Pd)

= Current Pd Depreciation
FY00 Pd7 (2,400 - 0 = 2400

6

= 400.00
FY00 Pd8 (2,400 - 400 = 2000

5

= 400.00
FY00 Pd9 (2,400 - 800 = 1600

4

= 400.00
FY00 Pd10 (2,400 - 1200 = 1200

3

= 400.00
FY00 Pd11 (2,400 - 1600 = 800

2

= 400.00
FY00 Pd12 (2,400 - 2000 = 400

1

= 400.00
