Question

Could you please guide me to calculate the depreciation on the basis of useful life .And also if i adopt the useful life for calculation of depreciation then the method of depreciation will be change.how should i account such change in method of calculation of depreciation

Answer 1

"And also if i adopt the useful life for calculation of depreciation then the method of depreciation will be change" I don't understand this statement.

Note IAS 16.50 which says "The depreciable amount of an asset shall be allocated on a systematic
basis over its useful life." So the use of "useful life" in calculation of depreciation of an asset is a must.
