year end date is 30june 2001how much depreciation charge to the admin expenses at the year end ?
sol
building cost $120000 x 4%=4800 but this is wrong in my kaplan exam kit correct answere is 3200 … but how? please explain it to meLand and buildings are $120,000,000 (not 120,000).
This includes land of $40,000,000.
So the buildings are $80,000,000, and it is only buildings that are being depreciated at 4%. (We do not depreciate land anyway)
