    DEPRECIATION

    Salient features Depreciation is a measure of wearing out.


    It reduces the book value of the asset but not its market value. It is a measure of loss of value of asset. Depreciation is a continuing process because the book value is reduced either with the use of the asset or with the passage of time. It takes place gradually unless there is a quick physical deterioration or obsolescence due to technological developments. It is not the process of valuation of asset, it is a process of allocation of cost of the asset to the useful life of asset. The term depreciation is used only for tangible fixed assets.
