Hello Sir/Mam I need a clarification on Schedule II depreciation rates. For a company which was formed only in 2014,can I divide the cost of the asset by the useful life prescribed under the new schedule for arriving at the depreciation?
Or am i supposed to use the formula ((1-(residual value/WDV)^(1/remaining useful life))*100%
