13 March 2015 (C) it means if any building, which is temporary made of wooden structure then depreciation will be deducted @100%.

& difference between W.D.V. & S.L.M

As per straight line method(S.L.M.), we calculate the depreciation with a fixed rate. Every year same depreciation is deducted from the fixed asset.

As per written down value method(W.D.V., we calculate the depreciation on original cost in first year. Next years' depreciation will be calculated on the amount which we got after deducting previous year depreciation. So, every year's depreciation amount will decrease.
