What is depreciation?

Depreciation can be defined as a process in which the monetary (financial) value of an asset decreases or falls over time, especially due to wear and tear.

How to determine the depreciation expenses?

First of all, we would calculate the expected number of units produced by CAAT as follows:

Expected number of units produced = 15,000 + 13,000 + 11,000 + 10,500 + 10,500

Expected number of units produced = 60,000.

Mathematically, the depreciation expenses is given by:

Depreciation expenses = Actual units produced/expected units produced × cost price

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Depreciation expenses = 9,000/60,000 × 175,300

Depreciation expenses = R26,295.
