Effective ....Date the Company changed its method of computing depreciation from WDV methods to the straight-line method for the Company's Long Term assets.
Based on Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ,
the Company determined that the change in depreciation method from WDV method to a straight-line method is a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle. A change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle is to be applied prospectively. The change is considered preferable because the straight-line method will more accurately reflect the pattern of usage and the expected benefits of such assets and provide greater consistency with the depreciation methods used by other companies in the Company's industry.
The net book value of assets acquired prior to ....Date with useful lives remaining will be depreciated using the straight-line method prospectively.
As a result of the change to the straight-line method of depreciating Long term Asset assets, depreciation expense increased by 5000 rupees for the said month period ended March 31,XXX and the decrease in Profit by 5000.
