Why depreciation is charged in P&L Account?
Answer Posted / n.shankar nath, sr. accountant
Fixed assets are held for the services they yield in the

while getting the finished goods asset value will decrease

expenditure.

income & gains credit, that's why depreciation will treat
as expenditure & post into P& L Account
