Answer / mohammed irfan khan

WE CAN DEPRECIATE BUILDING BUT LAND NEVER GET DEPRECIATION.
IF IN THE QUESTION IT IS GIVEN DEPRECATION FOR LAND AND
BUILDING YOU CAN DEPRECIATE ACCORDING TO THE RETE GIVEN IN
THAT. WE DEPRECIATE THIS BECAUSE THIS IS FIXED ASSETS AND
WE CANT DEPRECIATE FOR CURRENT ASSETS.

Answer / parveen

land can never be depreciated but if land and building are
shown together and if they are seprable then we can
depreciate the building at 10% and we can not depreciate the
land .
but if they are unseprable then we will depreciate the
combined amount at prescribed rate.
