Written Down Value Method 6

Introduction:
The Written Down Value (WDV) method is a commonly used depreciation method in which depreciation is calculated on the asset’s remaining book value at the end of each accounting period. As the asset’s book value decreases over time, the depreciation amount is reduced accordingly.

The Fresa Application simplifies this process by allowing users to configure asset details in the Asset Master and automatically calculate depreciation based on the selected depreciation method.

Note:
Depreciation is calculated based on the asset details configured in the Asset Master. Verify the asset information before clicking Calculate Depreciation to ensure accurate results.

Step 1: Log in to the Fresa Application and navigate to the Accounts module.
