to spread the annual depreciation amount (or) else in
simple terms it specifies when an asset should be
depreciated.

Answer / narendar chintam

Prorate Calendar will decide ur company depreciation
policy.

For eg: Your company is purchasing an asset at any date of
a month, but it is going to calculate depreciation from end
date of the month only.

In this case ur prorate will be like this.

From 01-jan-09 to 31-jan-09 -- prorate date is 31-jan-09.

Means if u are purchasing an asset at any date of jan month
ur system starts calculating depreciation from 31-jan-09
Onwards.

Like this u can define ur prorate calendar.
