29 May 2015 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%
