Year | This designates the time period that the depreciation percent will apply to - there should be an entry with associated percentage for each year depreciation is taken |
Percent | Must total 100 percent. This is the percentage each year that will be applied to the basis to calculate depreciation - for example if this column was 10 and your asset had a basis (Cost less Salvage value) of 120 then the annual depreciation would be 12 and the monthly depreciation would be 1. This is expressed in whole number 10=10% |
