When an asset is written off, the double entry involves debiting an expense account and crediting the asset account. Specifically, you would debit the Loss on Write-off of Asset (or a similar expense account) to reflect the loss incurred, and credit the asset account to remove the asset from the balance sheet. This ensures that the financial statements accurately reflect the company's current financial position.

What is the journal entry for sale of fully depreciated asset with loan balance?
This is how I did it. We had a truck that burned to the ground. It was fully 179 expensed. Insurance paid off the loan, so on the books I had a balance. This is what I did. First entry was to take the asset off the books; next entry was to remove the loan off the books. I decided to credit depreciation expense instead of a revenue account, since I felt that it was more representative of the event (not a sale).
