depreciation

[Former Member]

Could someone please explain what situation would cause monthly depreciation to change for an asset that is deprecating via straight line method? The fiscal year the asset was acquired the monthly depreciation was one amount but starting the next FY the monthly depreciation amount changed and I am trying to figure out under what circumstances that might happen. There have been no changes to the asset or the configuration for the keys.

Hi

See the settings in Base methd, declining bal methd, perd contl methd and multi-level methd.

Base methd and multi-level methd is very imp to calculate dep.

Example:

Base Method Decl Method Period Contl Multl level Method Change over methd

0007 004 004 045 1

0011 001 004 001 5

0017 001 004 044

Thanks

Only LINR dep key is meant to provide equal depreciation every month based on Straight Line Method
