Depreciable assets include those assets that are capitalized i.e. not expensed. Examples include buildings, capital equipment, and the like. Depreciation allows someone to invest in these items and not subtract the full value of that investment in the first year, since the investment retains value over the years. Book depreciation is different from tax depreciation which is different from actual depreciation. Items that are commonly expensed are advertising expense, software expense, and research and development expenses (sometimes). Assets that are neither expensed nor depreciated, but just sit on the balance sheet, include raw land and goodwill.

Depreciation on fixed assets refers to the systematic allocation of the cost of a tangible asset over its useful life. This accounting method reflects the wear and tear, obsolescence, or decrease in value of the asset over time, allowing businesses to match the cost of the asset with the revenue it generates. By recording depreciation, companies can reduce their taxable income, as it is treated as an expense on the income statement. Common methods of calculating depreciation include straight-line, declining balance, and units of production.
Look in your financial statement completed by your accountant, you should have depreciation % by category in the notes.

I would guess around 5 years but check with your accountant.

The corresponding credit would be made to the depreciation expense account, effectively zeroing it out for the period. This entry reflects the transfer of the expense to the Income Summary, where it will ultimately affect the net income calculation for the period.
