13 June 2013 Dear sir its very urgent.
I have join a small firm. The firm hasn't keep the books of accounts. So I had prepared the chart of accounts. Now I have a doubt. How to account the Fixed assets. There are number of Fixed assets like Furniture, computers, Fixtures and so on. assets are purchased on different months and different years, some of them have no purchase bills.
So how can I prepare the fixed assets ledger and old depreciation.
OR
Depreciation start with current year accounts with original cost (Purchase price)
Thanks in advance.

13 June 2013 You have to categorised the assets with same depreciation rate. Assets which were purchase in previous years, depreciation needs to be computed & needs to shown in register. Asset with no bills, quotes shall be collected from three vendors stating the offered sale value. Highest of it will be the value to be taken as book value.

So we keep previous years depreciation only onto the assets register. And continue with the remaining assets value Right
So the previous years depreciation is a must. right?
