Quick Summary

This discussion addresses how to correct past errors in capitalisation and depreciation. If an asset's capitalisation or depreciation was recorded incorrectly in a previous year, the current year is the time to fix it. For assets disposed of, the process involves reversing incorrect entries, adjusting the written-down value (WDV) against the sale price, and booking any resulting profit or loss to the profit and loss account.

18 November 2020 In such a case no reversal required. Adjust the wdv against sale price and credit/debit the balance to p and l.
