Deprication method - an accounting policy, but why not the change?

Accountancy

answered on 13-Nov-20 20:29

"The auditor should obtain a clear understanding of accounting policy adopted by the entity regarding depreciation and amortization" It is clear from the above statement that the method of Depriciation selected by the entity is a part of accounting policy adopted by the entity. My Q is, if entity decides to change its deprication method, how come it change in estimate and not a change in policy?

1) In question, will they ask to do the Answer in a particular method of date calculation, Do we need to learn both methods of date calculation. 2) In backward method of date calculation, we should take the first transaction date or first due date,which one as base date. 3) Can backward method of date calculation be used in Interest method also or only in product method.

Sir in this point no.4 if I Dr. Naveen a/c instead of purchase account is it is wrong ?

latest answer

If earlier recorded as creditor for that amount ur opinion is correct. But logically if trade discount and cash discount given simultaneously it's reasonable to assume that immediate payment was inneciated and paid accordingly
