Question

We have a asset of 1000 euro which we want to depreciate in 2 years.
the asset date in use is 01/12/2010 and has to be fully depreciated on 31/12/2012.

The first year ( 2010 ) the total depreciation should be 50% of the value of the asset and the depreciation in 2011 shoud be 50 %

for instance :

01/12/2010 - 31/12/2010 monthly amount 500 euro
01/01/2011 - 31/12/2011 monthly amount 500 / 12 months = 41,67 each month.

what kind of depreciation methode should i use and how ? i'going bananas over this ....

dear
You have to user "No of years in use"

dear
You have to user "No of years in use"

Do you mean numbers of years in use ???

Yes IT is Number of years used

that option is not working because he divides the assets value through the numbers of years in use.
For the first year he makes a depreciation value of Euro . 1000,00 / 13 months = 76,92
for the first year .

dear

You have to check all parameters
Fas parameter for Number of year use
depreciation parameter
and also asset master no of year should be defined as 2 year in your case
if your reminder value is 1
then the system calculate 999/2=499.5 per year and month 41.625
check in test company'

dear
for the calculation i calulated taken as asset value 1000
no of years use 2
reminder =1
1000-1=999
999/24=41.625
year 41.625*12=499.5

Could you sent me a print screen ? please

Dear,
The second line in you example maybe wrong. The period should be 24 months, but not 12 months.

Hi There,
use this way:
1. Depreciation method is straight line.
2. Put in the asset's life is 13 months.
3. Put in the service date is 01/12 2010.
4. Put in the accumulated depreciation is 500
5. put in the last depreciation period is 31/12/2010
6. Capitalized the asset (starting from service date), with suppres journal entries option enabled (and put in the asset journal on 2010 using journal voucher, not directly comes from asset module).
7. Depreciating the assets for year 2011. Depreciation cost will be 41,67 per month.

Good luck. I always use this way to solving this kind of fixed asset issue.

Trisulo. thanx ... it works !!!
