Asset category: Furniture and Fixtures

Desks, chairs, shelving and fittings, depreciated straight line.

In detail

Furniture and Fixtures holds desks, chairs, shelving, counters and fitted items, depreciated straight line over a medium life. In the demo the Rs 40,000 of office chairs and a table bought on ACC-PINV-2026-00004 became ACC-ASS-2026-00001 under this category, posting cost to Furniture and Fixtures - YFF. Its monthly depreciation is part of the Rs 1,235.54 Depreciation Entry ACC-JV-2026-00091 that also covers the laptop. Small furniture that is cheap and short lived can be expensed under a capitalisation threshold you set in policy; everything above it comes here. Mixing furniture into Office Equipment distorts both categories' schedules.

Formula

Monthly depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value) / Useful life in months; Rs 40,000 over 120 months = Rs 333.33
