What is depreciation as percentage of revenues?
115051
depreciation is the spreading of an expense of an asset over a period of time that tries to reflect its useful life. if a company had 100,000 in depreciation against 1,000,000 in revenues, then it would be 10%.

The concept of depreciation is really pretty simple. For example, let’s say you purchase a truck for your business. The truck loses value the minute you drive it out of the dealership. The truck is considered an operational asset in running your business. Each year that you own the truck, it loses some value, until the truck finally stops running and has no value to the business. Measuring the loss in value of an asset is known as depreciation.\nDepreciation is considered an expense and is listed in an income statement under expenses. In addition to vehicles that may be used in your business, you can depreciate office furniture, office equipment, any buildings you own, and machinery you use to manufacture products.\n\nLand is not considered an expense, nor can it be depreciated. Land does not wear out like vehicles or equipment.\n\nTo find the annual depreciation cost for your assets, you need to know the initial cost of the assets. You also need to determine how many years you think the assets will retain some value for your business. In the case of the truck, it may only have a useful life of ten years before it wears out and loses all value

Sounds like a cfa question!\n\nDepreciation = 1300-100 = 1200 over 6 years = 200 per year\n\nat t=0, value = 1300 = intercept (Y value when x=0)\nAt t=1, value = 1100\nAt t=2, value = 900  etc - For every year, value = 1300 - 200 x no. of years_\n\nSo Y = 1300 - 200X

The standard mileage rate starting 1/1/2006 is 44.5 cents per mile.\n\nTo calculate depreciation, you will need to learn MACRS.  See http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p946.pdf for more details.\n\nGood luck.

The principle for valuation of an asset:\n\n"all the expenses incurred on an asset before brining the asset into useful condition goes into the value of the asset (is direct expenditure for the asset)"\n\nIf the Book-Value has become Zero, it should be so...\n\nReal value of an asset is dependent on market conditions and Book value is dependent on the depreciation methodology adopted..\n\nJust because the asset has a certain real value, we cannot change the book value... It amounts to changing your policy of recording the value of assets (depreciating the assets) which is against "consistency"\n\n\nIf there is an expenditure that is to be met regularly for keeping the asset in shape for being used, it can be treated as revenue expenditure and charged to the profit and loss account regularly.\n\nIf there is an expenditure that would bring about a fundamental change in the capability (usefulness) of the asset then it should be capitalised.  This expenditure should be debited to the asset account in which case the asset would acquire some value again..\n\nHowever, there are certain situations where you may feel that revaluing the asset is prudent and in such cases if the asset is revalued (as per acceptable policies both accounting and legal) the asset account may acquire some value ...\n\n\nhttp://www.futureaccountant.com/

depends on the method, but probably the cost.  That way if you decide to discount your inventory to get rid of it, you will know how much you are really losing and not just how much less you are selling it for.

Are you talking about a property that you own? If so Yes mortgage int and property tax are deductible as well as depreciation. Any major repairs you make are supposed to go in to the basis of the property(new roof) and that will also be depreciated. the way it is depreciated depends on the kind of rental property it is(res or non res) and the date the property was purchased. I would go to IRS.gov and pub 946 how to depreciate property.

Determine what % of the time you will use the computer for business.  That is the % you can write off your taxes.  Of course that % is open to interpretation by you so be generous with yourself.

Impossible.  It is a percentage of whatever the product is.  For example the tax here is 5.5%.  If I buy something for 19.99, with tax it is 21.09.

Definition of revenue: Revenues are increases in the reporting entity's assets (including inflows of assets or enhancements of assets) or decreases in its liabilities resulting from activities that are integral to the provision of products (goods and services) by the entity itself that are ultimately destined for customers. \n\nThe key feature of this definition is that the reporting entity generates revenues only in respect of the activities it performs itself. \n\nUnder the broad performance view, if the reporting entity provides goods it owns to customers, revenues arise from satisfying its performance obligation to provide those goods. This is regardless of whether the reporting entity subcontracts the manufacture of part or all of those goods, and whether the entity owns those goods momentarily. \n\nThe definition of revenues includes inflows of additional assets and enhancements of existing assets resulting from activities that are integral to the entity's provision of goods and services. \n\nValue Added View \n\nDefinition of revenue: Revenues are the excess of the value of the reporting entity's outputs in the form of goods and services that it creates over the costs of its inputs in the form of materials and services that it purchases from other entities. \n\nValue added might be defined more narrowly by also excluding the value of all other factor inputs such as the wages of the reporting entity's employees or interest accrued to its creditors. That would leave profit as the measure of revenues. Yet another possibility might be to interpret value added as the entity's gross margin. \n\nDuring its last meeting, the FASB rejected the "Gross Inflows View" and the "Value Added View" and asked its staff to concentrate on the other two views. The IASB Board also rejected the "Gross Inflows View" and the "Value Added View" as drafted. They believe the "Value Added View" has predictive value disclosure benefits and may be reconsidered from that point of view at a later stage. \n\nThere was support for considering what should be excluded from revenue under the "Gross Inflows View" view (for example, custodial and agency collections) and comparing this to the two remaining views. \n\nBoard members questioned whether the remaining two views encompassed asset enhancement, such as growth in agricultural assets. Staff suggested that such enhancement is within revenue under the "Broad Performance View" not under the "Liability Extinguishment View". One Board member suggested the Board should not be concerned whether this is classified as revenue or as "other gains". \n\nSeveral Board members expressed support for subdividing revenue into components, such as sales and gains on assets (if included). \n\nThe staff asked the Board to consider whether once they had agreed on a definition of revenue, they would want to consider the recognition criteria on a different view. The Board did not support this, though a formal vote was not taken. \n\nDiscussion at June 2003 IASB Meeting \n\nThe Board discussed the types of contractual rights and obligations that could give rise to revenue. The Board determined that conditional rights (performance has not occurred) should not give rise to revenue. \n\nThe Board noted that under the staff's proposal, conditional rights could give rise to a fair value gain or loss. For example, if an entity submitted a purchase order for 1 unit at the fair value price of 100 and, prior to delivery, the fair value increased to 105, the purchaser would have a gain of 5 and the seller a loss of 5. Therefore, the seller would record revenue of 100, cost of sale (say 80), and a loss of 5 from the fair value movement of its stock prior to delivery. \n\nThe Board decided that pre-performance assets and liabilities would be carried at fair value at initial recognition and subsequent remeasurement.

It's "debt/equity" ratio.  Divide the debt by the company worth to find the percentage of debt the company has.

I am trying to answer this assuming that you are asking it in an accountants point of view\n\nIts normal that we make merry when we make more profits...\n\nIf we calculate profits by considering the expenses that we pay (in cash or otherwise), then we may not be preparing ourselves for the future.... \n\n\nSay if you have a profit of $100,000 without charging depreciation and depreciation is $80,000, it would be $20,000 net after depreciation.\n\nHad you not took depreciation into consideration, you might throw a party spending a considerable amount of money (considering the $100,000 profit made it may sound reasonable).\n\nBut when you take depreciation into account you may not do so since your profit figure is meagre ($20,000)\n\nIt makes you think in  a conservative manner..\n\n\nhttp://www.futureaccountant.com/

I'm an auditor and I have never come across this.  I know that the MACRS depreciation life for software is 3 years - maybe this will help you.

Yes.  The tax impact of the onoing depreciation of an asset (the portion 'written off' or expensed each year) is part of the cash flow.  Usually the annual asset depreciation produces a tax credit and thus adds to the effective annual cash flow.  Depreciation also comes into play if the asset is sold (disposed of) during the analysis period: the difference between its depreciated (book) value and fair market value at the time of sale will produce a taxable gain or loss whose tax effect will also have to be included in the cash flow.
