Depreciation Appreciation

Depreciation Appreciation 

Here’s a problem you might encounter later on. I’m clairvoyant, I know! Just joking, I’m not clairvoyant. But, just in case you do here’s a little nugget of information for you.

Your friend has ₱52,000 laptop he uses for a small business. Let’s say that he’s had it for 4 years and he rents it to you for the same amount as he purchased it. What will you do? Will you take the offer right away? Bargain with your friend?

The answer is neither. You must never ignore that little voice in your head that questions the prices of the equipment you purchase second hand, or the ones you rent. There are factors that you need to consider. Actually, there’s only one: Time. The question you’ll need to ask is, “How long? Yes, amount is important, capacity/usability is important, But, these two are both attributed to the time the equipment is used.

Since your friend is a businessman he’ll have to have recorded a Depreciation Schedule. If he doesn’t, then he should read this.

What’s this you ask? That is the topic of this post.

Depreciation

Depreciation is the lost in value over a tangible asset through its use.

Depreciation Schedule

Year	Hrs. In Operation		Depreciation Charge	Amount in Depreciation Fund	Book Value at End of the Yr.
0	0		0	0	₱52,000
1	₱4,700
2	₱4,095
3	₱3,650
4	₱4,000

Another set of gibberish on the table above that I am compelled to explain.

• Year you know what that is...

• Hrs. of Operation is self explanatory

• Depreciation Charge- the yearly deposits into the Depreciation Fund

• Amount in Depreciation Fund- the portions of a given amount at the end of its useful life or the difference between the original cost of the asset.

• Book Value at the End of the Yr.- sum of the depreciation fund

In order to fill in the table above you’re going to have to learn how to get each of these variables.

                            Depreciation = Cost  –  Scrap value

·        Depreciation Charge per Hr. =                  ____________________________

                                       Probable Usability

·        Amount in Depreciation Fund = sum of Depreciation Charge of  

Succeeding Yrs.

·        Book Value  for the 1^st Yr. = Cost – Depreciation Charge

·        Book Value for Succeeding Yrs. = Cost – Depreciation Charge of

                                                                                Succeeding Yrs.

So let's go back to the problem at the beginning of this post.

Your friend has ₱52,000 laptop he uses for a small business. Let’s say that he’s had it for 4 years. Assuming that usability is at 84,000 hrs. It has a scrap value of ₱11,000.

      Depreciation = ₱52,000 - ₱11,000

                              = ₱41,000 / ₱84,000 = ₱0.49/hr. = Depreciation Charge per Hr.

Year	Hrs. In Operation		Depreciation Charge	Amount in Depreciation Fund	Book Value at End of the Yr.
0	0		0	0	₱52,000
1	₱4700	(.49)	₱2,303	₱2,303	₱49,697
2	₱4095	(.49)	₱2,006.55	₱4,309.55	₱47,690.45
3	₱3650	(.49)	₱1,788.50	₱6,098.05	₱41,592.40
4	₱4000	(.49)	₱1,960	₱8,058.05	₱33,534.35

Now that you’ve determined the correct amount you have to pay, you can start bargaining. If he's willing, then you might get it at a much lower price

If you plan to start a business, then you’ll also have to monitor your equipment. This will determine whether or not you’re paying good money for the equipment you buy or you’ll have to switch brands.

A reminder: if there are decimals involved, remember to include 2 decimal places.

Checking Cheques

Checking Cheques

Writing Checks may be convenient but also risky.

     Sooner or later we will be dealing with and using. checks. Especially, those who plan to start their own business. When that happens, you’ll have to keep a close eye on the processes. While the bank can give you a record, statement of your accounts, you can’t be too sure, so you’ll have to have your own record. This is to make sure that you can detect any discrepancies in the payments you make and that the right amount goes to the intended receiver. 

   We’re going to be discussing Bank Reconciliation. So what is Bank Reconciliation?

 It is the process of bringing the bank's monthly report for each depositor showing deposits made, check written, cancelled checks, and service charges.

Once you’ve confirmed that your check book balance and the bank statement balance is in agreement with each other, that will be the Reconciliation Statement.

                You didn’t quite get that huh? Or maybe you did, but in case you didn’t, here’s another definition: It is the process that explains the differences between the bank statement of your accounts and your own ledger or check stub. You get your check stub along with your check book.

Sample of a check and a check stub:

Here are the possible causes of the difference in your balances:

• Outstanding Checks- checks issued but not yet presented to the bank for payment.
• Deposits in Transit- late deposits not included in the bank statement
• Cancelled Checks- checks that have been paid by the bank
• Service Charges
• Errors in the Check Stub Entries

For first timers here’s how you fill out your check:

        I encounter this problem when I’m tasked to write a check for my mother. This may be your problem too. So here are samples on how to write numbers into words:

58= fifty-eight

677= six hundred and seventy-seven

8, 900= eight thousand nine hundred

        In writing a check you can disregard the hyphen and the word ‘and’. You should also remember to add the word ‘only’ at the end of the amount.

There are instances when the amount is not exact, and you’ll have to write it with centavos.

For example:

₱9,765.50.

 PESOS nine thousand seven hundred sixty five 50/100 only

The same works for cents. Here are more examples:

Here's a sample problem on how to do a Reconciliation Statement:

When Mr. Erwin Garcia received his bank statement, he had a balance of P3,842.30. Hischeckbook balance was P3,288.40. He found out the checks 14 and 21 were not yet cashed withamounts of P1,000 and P557.30 respectively. His deposit of P500 at the end of the month was late to be included in the bank statement. Upon inspecting his checkbook, he noted that P5.20 was deducted by the bank as a service charge. An error was made when he issued a check for P1,002.40 which he deducted asP1,004.20. The cancelled check of P500 was not deducted either from the checkbook balance.

About the Me Who Forgot to Introduce Herself

About the Me Who Forgot to Introduce Herself

This is the About Me part which I forgot to include.

    So let me start over. I'm an Industrial Design student from the University of Sto. Tomas, currently on my 3rd year of college. (Yeah... that's all the personal info you're getting from this post. Oho!)

    And so, after 2 years of math-free-education, we are now tackling Business Math. Thus, the purpose of this blog. That said, this is not something I made because I wanted to. This is one of the requirements for that subject. Tell you the truth, making a blog never passed my mind. It never would have, truthfully. The only writing I did in the internet is for FanFiction.net. It currently has 3 stories only one of which is complete. If you ever plan to read them, then please excuse the grammar for my 1^st story. That was 3 years ago... so it’s not as fine as the others. I also draw stuff not related to my course. I post them at deviantART.com. 

      Back to the point. This blog will contain discussions about business math. However, since it would be a waste to just stick with the required contents, I’ll try writing it a bit more differnetly than a textbook.
