Description

Depreciation might sound dull, but it's the secret sauce behind the numbers every accountant loves—or at least pretends to. Whether you're managing office equipment or calculating how fast a delivery van is losing value, depreciation helps keep the books straight and the taxman happy. This Depreciation Accounting Basics Course gives you the clear, no-nonsense insight into how assets lose value over time—and more importantly, how to record it properly. You’ll learn the methods, the formulas, and why straight-line depreciation is everyone’s not-so-secret favourite.

Perfect for anyone who's ever looked at a balance sheet and thought, “I swear this laptop was worth more last year,” this course breaks down what you need to know about depreciation without the fluff. From residual values to reducing balances, you’ll understand how and why businesses account for wear and tear. With a little number-crunching charm and zero confusing jargon, this online course makes depreciation accounting feel a bit less... well, depressing.
