The query can be replied by having two examples:
1. Compter Machine is assembled from different components each costing for an amount less than Rs. 5000/-. In this case, the asset acquired is a computer as the component can not function on its own but it is the synchronised effort of all the components that gives the desired output. Hence, all components put together form a logical asset and as such, the aggregate cost of all components is to be analysed for the purpose of ascertaining the rate of depreciation.
2. Ten mobiles purchased for Rs. 40000/-: In this case each mobile set is logically a seperate asset and its functionality is not dependant on the other set and can be depreciated @ 100% as the cost of one set is not more than Rs. 5000. On the other hand the purchase of all the mobile sets is evidenced with 10 individual bills then one has no confusion about the rate of depreciation. And law has never precluded that the position will change if one bill is received for all the sets together.
Hope, the examples will clarify the confusion.
