Consider the following statements about depreciation.

1. Depreciation is not itself a cash flow   2. Declining balance ignores salvage value in its annual calculation   3. The total written off over the life depends on the method chosen

  • A.1 and 3 only are correct
  • B.1 and 2 only are correct
  • C.1, 2 and 3 are all correct statements about depreciation
  • D.2 and 3 only are correct

Answer: B

Correct answer: 1 and 2 only are correct

Statements 1 and 2 are correct: depreciation moves no cash, and declining balance applies its rate to the book value without deducting salvage. Statement 3 is the essential point about method choice - the total written off is the depreciable base whatever method is used, and only the timing differs.
