Depreciable Assets

51 All plant accounts, with the exception of accounts 101, 151 and 171 (Land), are classed as accounts covering assets that are depreciable and, for the purpose of the group system of depreciation accounting, depreciable asset accounts may be grouped according to the nature of the plant included in each account.

Depreciation Charges

- (b) with the prior approval of the Board, applying the annual percentage rate of depreciation to the depreciation base at the beginning of the company fiscal year and dividing the result by 12.
(3) Monthly depreciation charges under the use or unit of production method shall be computed by applying the appropriate rate of use or production per unit for the year to the number of units of use or production for the month.

(2) In determining the rate of depreciation, consideration shall be given to all relevant factors including variations in use, increasing obsolescence or inadequacy.
(3) Each depreciation rate used shall be approved by the Board but where no rate has previously been approved for any class of plant, an interim rate as estimated by the company shall be used.

(2) The rates referred to in subsection (1) shall be based on the service value and estimated service life of plant, as developed by a study of the company’s history and experience and such engineering and other information as may be available with respect to future operating conditions.
(3) The rates referred to in subsection (1) shall be established to produce a charge for depreciation equal to the sum of the amounts that would otherwise be chargeable as depreciation for each of the various classes of plant included in a group of plant accounts, for each plant account or for each group of assets within a plant account.
(4) The rates referred to in subsection (1) may be developed by a company by the method deemed most appropriate for the portrayal of the depreciation experienced and, when filed, shall be accompanied by a statement showing their bases and the methods employed in their computation.
