Fixed asset depreciation methods:

1.? Annual average method (also known as straight-line method)

Annual depreciation rate = (1 - estimated net salvage rate) ÷ Estimated useful life (in years) × 100%Monthly depreciation = Original cost of fixed assets × Annual depreciation rate ÷ 12

2, ? Workload method

Unit workload depreciation = fixed assets original cost × ( 1 - estimated net salvage rate ) / estimated total workload of a fixed asset monthly depreciation = the fixed asset workload in the month × unit workload depreciation

3,? Double Declining Balance Method (Accelerated Depreciation Method)

Annual Depreciation Rate = 2 ÷ Estimated Useful Life (Years) × 100%Monthly Depreciation = Net Fixed Asset Value × Annual Depreciation Rate ÷ 12

4,? The total number of years law (accelerated depreciation method)

Annual depreciation rate = remaining useful life / estimated useful life of the total number of years × 100 % monthly depreciation amount = (fixed assets original price - estimated net salvage value ) × annual depreciation rate ÷ 12

General enterprises use more is the straight-line method. Depreciation can be charged individually or categorically.
