Profit and loss sheet - show the depreciation for the current year only as an expense
Balance sheet - show the cost price of the asset less any accumulated depreciation from previous years and less the depreciation for the current year.
Hope this helps
Missing depreciation will increase the profit while reduce the expenses in the year in which depreciation is missing.
Provision of depreciation is allowance account in which every year fixed amount is put to charged against actual depreciation so that planned income statement can be prepared and profit remains smooth.
Retained Earnings does not appear on a cash flow statement; however, the net profit or loss for the period (which gets closed to Retained Earnings) is usually the second item on the cash flow report. Beginning Cash Balance is the first. Then, all the cash changes on the Balance Sheet (such as reduction of debt) and the non-cash items on the Income Statment (such as depreciation) are listed to reconcile to the Ending Cash Balance.
The answer is in the question really. It's the profit a business makes before depreciation is charged. As depreciation is a non cash item it could be argued that it's the cash profit. However, there could be provision in there so calling it the cash profit is not strictly true.
Cash profit means profit after tax plus depreciation.
accumulated depreciations are recorded in the liability side of the balance sheet as a deduction from concerned assets. it also shows in the debit side of profit and loss account as an expence
depreciation of fixed assets reduces the profit as depreciation is also an expense.
Depreciation is an expense. It should be charged under expense of a P&L Statement. Provision for Depreciation is the total depreciation of a particular fixed asset accumulated over the years. It should be deducted from the figure of the Fixed asset.
Missing depreciation will increase the profit while reduce the expenses in the year in which depreciation is missing.
When a company buys an asset they have to spread the cost of the asset over it's useful economic lifetime, this is done with depreciation. The accumulated depreciation is the depreciation from previous years and the charge for the year is the amount being depricated that year, which will be charged to the profit and loss. The assets will shows as a debit balance while depreciation will show as a credit balance in the balance sheet. When charge the depreciation for the year you would credit the balance sheet and debit the profit and loss. So after the asset has come to the end of it's useful economic lifetime the value in the balance sheet will become zero or close to it as the credits of depreciation will cancel out the debit if the asset value.
Depreciation for the current year is considered an expense and, like all expenses for the financial year, need to be shown on the P & L. As each year passes, the current year's Depreciation Expense gets added to Accumulated Depreciation (most companies do this each month rather than once a year). Accumulated Depreciation, just as it sounds, is an accumulation of all depreciation for an asset. The reason Accum. Deprec. is shown on the Balance sheet is because it is reducing the (book) value of an asset. And all asset (book) values are shown on the Balance Sheet.
Accumulated depreciation is all of the depreciation ever 'accumulated' against the assets currently in service. It is shown on the balance sheet as a 'contra' (negative) asset, directly below the assets it relates to. Depreciation expense is the current period's depreciation of the assets currently in service. It is shown on the income (P&L) statement as an expense. Example: Business purchased a truck for $20,000 which will last 5 years. For simplicity, we'll use 'straight-line' depreciation. End of Year One: Depreciation expense on Income Statement $4,000 (1/5th of $20,000) Accumulated Depreciation on balance sheet: $4,000 End of Year Two: Depreciation expense on Income Statement $4,000 Accumulated Depreciation on balance sheet: $8,000 (both years) End of Year Three: Depreciation expense on Income Statement $4,000 Accumulated Depreciation on balance sheet: $12,000 (all three years)
depreciation is a source of cash. because we charge depreciation in profit and loss but we added back in cash flow. remember one thing that capital expenditure= amount of depreciation
