Introduction
Depreciation allows for the companies to recover cost of an asset when it was
purchased. It allows the companies to cover the total cost of an asset over it’s
lifespan. This is important aspect in analyzing cost because it represents a
significant portion of expenses.
Types of Depreciation
1.Physical depreciation – this is due to the reduction of
the physical ability of an equipment or asset to produce
results.
2.Functional depreciation – this is due to the lessening
in the demand for the function which the property was
designed to render.

Methods of Depreciation
3. Declining Balance Method. In this method, sometimes
called the constant percentage method or the Matheson
Formula, it is assumed that the annual cost of depreciation
is a fixed percentage of the salvage value at the beginning
of the year. The ratio of the depreciation in any year to the
book value at the beginning of that year is constant
throughout the life of the property and is designated by k,
the rate of depreciation.

Example 12. You own an oil property for which you paid
$150,000 in mineral rights acquisition costs last year.
Recoverable oil reserves are estimated at $1,000,000 barrels.
50,000 barrels of oil are produced this year and are sold for
$29.00 per barrel. Your operating and overhead expenses are
$180,000 this year and allowable depreciation is $120,000.
You expect the same production rate, operating costs, and
selling price next year. Calculate cost depletion for this year
and also next year assuming we do not use percent depletion
this year.
Solution;
Step 2: Computation of depletion rate per unit: The depletion rate per unit of a
natural resource or asset depends upon the total number of units expected to be
extracted. This is calculated by dividing the depletion base less salvage value (if any) by
the number of units expected to be extracted.
Depletion rate = (Depletion base – Salvage value)/Total units expected to be extracted
10.A furniture company buys a forest to obtain wood for manufacturing furniture. The related costs to the
forest are:
Cost of buying the forest = $730,000,000
Wood expected to be extracted = 400,000 ton
Cost of restoration of the forest = $120,000,000
Residual/salvage value = $233,000,000
Trees cut in year 1 = 107,000 tons
Trees cut in year 2 = 89,000 tons
Compute the depletion rate and depletion charge for the first 2 years.
