"since the calculation of depreciation is based on
estimate,notfacts,why bother to make the calculation?

Answer Posted / maged

We have two methods to make the depreciation:
1- Direct Method:
Dep.=(Cost - Resedual Value) / useful life.
2- Double Declining Method:
Dep.= Book Value * Depreciation percentage
as Book Value =[Cost-Accumulated Dep.]

And note, we have estimations depend on basics.
like; How much this asset will be used and for how long
time and its quality and is it cabable to be used in this
process?
