It is true in some cases only .

If tou write off the entire amount of expenditure to P/L in  subsequent year(as in case of depreciation ) then it is true.

For example assets repaired (reveuue expenditure) Rs. 5000 added to cost of assets treating ait capital exenditure. In subsequent yera if you transfer the amount as depreciation the ultimate effect will be NIl . But if the assets is sold suring the period or some capital exp. not charged to P/l then the statement will noit hold good.

 

manmohan is right.

There will not be any effect on business profit as a whole and no. of accounting year taken together. Otherwise there will be effect on business profit as the profit is overstated over a no. of accounting years.

Manmohan is right.

It will definately impact the profit for the current year and for future years also as depreciation will be provided for a no. of years and till then the profit will be overstated.
