Deparation methods are essential in accesering economics to allocate te cost of assets over their useful life. Different methods suit various financial and operatiol consulos, proving flexibility in accounting and decision-making processes.

Straight- Line Methode

Te ever- line methode spreads the asset 's cott evenly over it s useful life. It is simple to o calculate and widely used for assets with consistent usage.

For exampla, an equipment costing $50,000 with a useful life of 10 years would have an annual deparation expense of $5,000.

Declining Balance Methode

This method quacates deration, appying a figed rate to thee acter book value each year. It is suavable for assets that lose value quickly early in their life.

For instance, using a 20% rate on a $50,000 asset results in higer deration expenses in te initial years, approing over time.

Units of Production Methodd

This method bases deparation on on actual usage or output. It is ideal for machinery where wear depens on operationaol hours or units produced.

If a machine costing $60,000 is expected to o produce 120,000 units over its life, and it produces 15,000 units in a year, thee deparation for that year would bee $7,500.
