Book Value

Depreciation refers to fall in the value an asset as a result of normal wear and tear or due to efflux of time.

Depreciation expense per annum = [tex]\frac{Original\ Cost\ -\ Estimated\ Salvage\ Value}{Life\ of\ the\ asset\ }[/tex]

When, a company revises an estimate such as salvage value or remaining useful life of the asset, depreciation expense would be recomputed using the following formula:
