Asset's Depreciation is not reflected in GL for an Asset with a Cost Adjustment

in Assets 3 comments

Summary:

Asset Cost was adjusted, but GL is missing depreciation that is partly reflected in subledger.

Content (please ensure you mask any confidential information):

We capitalized and asset at a cost of 110,827.23. It has a 15 year estimated useful life so the monthly depreciation at straight line is 615.71. We use the half year rule so depreciation normally the depreciation adjustment amount to catchup the 5 months from July-Nov since our open period is December 2025 i.e. 615.71 x 5 = 3078.55. The below captures the cost and depreciation for the 5 months.

We later adjusted the cost to increase it by $473,600.70 to a total cost of $584,427.93. When those JEs posted, we can see it adjust the asset cost and reverse the previous calculated depreciation for the 5 month period. However, no depreciation entries for the 5 months based on the new adjusted cost was posted.

Howdy, Stranger!
