What will I learn?
This course covers the full depreciation accounting cycle, starting with cost basis determination and capitalisation rules. You will calculate depreciation using the straight-line, units-of-production, declining-balance, and sum-of-the-years-digits methods. You will also account for estimate revisions, post-acquisition expenditures, asset disposals, and impairment write-downs. The course addresses tax versus book depreciation differences, multi-framework reporting requirements, and internal controls over fixed assets. By the end, you will be able to prepare compliant disclosures and use depreciation data to evaluate asset quality.
