    The model allocated costs for fixed assets and unused equipment, which is one of the strengths. The model also adjusted the current year capital purchases and added back the depreciation (the consumed portion of the purchase price).

    Depreciation expense is the way that the use of an asset is matched with the revenue that is generated from the asset on the income statement during the time period being reported. Each asset used in a business has a useful life as disclosed by the company’s depreciation policies for each category of asset. The other piece of calculating depreciation is the assumed salvage or “residual” value. There are several different methods of depreciating an asset:…

    Depreciation is a mechanism of generating funds to replace the fixed assets when the replacement becomes due. In historical cost accounting, depreciation is charged on the basis of historical cost of fixed assets, not at the price at which the same assets are acquired. The provision made by way of depreciation charge on the original cost will not be sufficient for the replacement of assets.…

    As an asset is used over time, the bundle of future service benefits available from it becomes smaller and smaller. The whole cost of the fixed asset cannot be charged as an expense in the year it is bought. This is in line with the matching principle. Only a portion of the total cost representing the amount of service benefits that has been used up during an accounting period has to be charged as an expense for that period in the final accounts against the revenue earned. This amount is called the depreciation expense. Depreciation, therefore, means the allocation of the cost ($10,000 in the above example) of a fixed asset over its useful life…

    The purpose of recording depreciation as an expense over a period is to spread the initial purchase price of the fixed asset over its useful life. Each time a company prepares its financial statements, it records a depreciation expense to allocate the loss in value of the machines, equipment or cars it has purchased. However, unlike other expenses, depreciation expense is a "non-cash" charge. This simply means that no money is actually paid at the time in which the expense is incurred.”…
