  • Depreciation | Fixed Installment Method | Purchase and Sales of Assets

  •  

     

    Fixed Installment Method | Straight Line Method

    Fixed installment method is also known as straight line method, original value method and original cost method.

    Under this method, depreciation is charged on fixed asset equally each year.

    Depreciation is calculated on either percentage basis or life of asset basis.

    There are two methods for accounting treatment.

    One is without opening provision for Depreciation account and other with opening provision for depreciation account.

     

    (A) When depreciation rate is given

    Annual depreciation

    Depn = (Purchase value + Transportation + Installation charge + Erection charge – Scrap) x (% ÷ 100)

     

    (B) When depreciation rate is not given

    Annual depreciation

    Depn = (Purchase value + Transportation + Installation charge + Erection charge – Scrap) ÷ Life

    Net value = Purchase value + Transportation + Installation charge + Erection charge – Scrap

     

     

    Additional assets purchased and sold

    Company purchases additional fixed assets when its business grew and expanded.

    Fixed asset becomes old or outdated.

    In this condition, company sells old asset and purchases new asset.

    Sometimes, company can exchange new asset from old asset.

    While selling or exchanging, there may be capital profit or capital loss.

    Loss is debited in journal entry but profit is credited in journal entry.

    (Loss is recorded in credit side but profit is recorded in debit side of asset account)

     

    First asset sold and new asset purchased

    Here, Amount = Rs = $ = £ = € = ₹ = Af = ৳ = Nu = Rf = රු = Currency of your country 

    PROBLEM: 2A

    On 1st April 2018, ABC Company purchased a machine for $/₹/Rs 100,000. On 1st July 2019, another machine was purchased for $200,000. On 30th September 2020, the company sold the machine which was purchased on 1st April 2018 for $60,000. On next day, another new machine was purchased for $150,000. The accounts of the com are closed as per calendar and depreciation is charged at 15% p.a. on fixed installment system.

    Required: Machinery Account from 2018 to 2020

    [Answer: Depreciation: in 2018 = $11,250; in 2019 = (15,000 + 15,000);

    In 2020 (11,250 + 30,000 + 5,625); Balance on 31 Dec 2020 = $299,375;

    Loss = $62,500 – $60,000 = $2,500]

On 1st July 2020, the company sold the machine which was purchased on 1st July 2019 for $160,000. On same date, another new machine was purchased for $150,000. The accounts of the company are closed at the end of December each year and depreciation is charged at 15% p.a. on fixed installment system.

    Required: Machinery Account from 2018 to 2020

    [Answer: Depreciation: in 2018: (M1 $15,000;

    In 2019 (M1 $15,000 + M2 $15,000) = $30,000;

    In 2020 M2 $15,000 sold; (M1 $15,000 + M3 $11,250 = $26,250;

    Loss on exchange (170,000 – 160,000) = $10,000;
