29 September 2014 My clients previous accountant does not deduct depreciation on any of the assets and shown assets as its cost value.

Now my question is, if I want to deduct depreciation for FY 2013-14, whether I should calculate on value show in B/S?

29 September 2014 yes, you have to charge depreciation for prev year on asset value shown in B/S, but this will be treated as prior period transaction for current year.

29 September 2014 What if I do not calculate depreciation of FY 2013.14 also??
Because if I calculate dep for 2012.13 and 2013.14, the net profit will bet too much low.
