Sheldon uses straight-line depreciation on all depreciableassets and assumes the assets will have no value at the end oftheir estimated useful lives. A full month's depreciation is takenfor the month of purchase, regardless of which day of the month thepurchase is made. For example, depreciation expense for the threemonths ended March 31, 2018, on the phone system is $200 (i.e.,$2,400/3 years x 3/12 of a year). Land is not considereddepreciable. You may use a single account (Depreciation Expense) torecord all of the depreciation expense for the depreciable assets.Also, you may use a single account (Accumulated Depreciation) torecord the effect of depreciation on total assets.
