Ask the Tutor ACCA FR

changes in accounting policy

Oolanrewaju11y ago
hello Mr Mike, Can we say that a change in the depreciation method is a chnage in accounting policy? I have always believed that it is a change in accounting estimate

The policy is "to charge depreciation on an asset so as to spread the cost over its estimated useful life" A change in the way depreciation is calculated is a change in estimate, not a change in policy
