Method 2 for Depreciating Libraries without Class Code 752 Items

FPP N.006

Step Action
1 Change the class code on each component to 751.
2 When you prepare your Capital Asset note at year-end, make manual adjustments on the SPA CAAB101 report to ensure that:
  1. in the Non-Depreciable Assets section, line item Other Assets:
    • the beginning balance equals the amount specified in the Financial Reporting Section’s reporting requirements.
    • the adjustment column shows a decrease equal to the total amount reclassified to Class Code 751 in step 1.
    • the additions column equals FY05 purchases only.
    • the deletions column equals FY05 deletions only.
  2. in the Depreciable Assets section, line item Other Assets:
    • the beginning balance equals zero (if there were no other assets in this category).
    • the adjustment column equals the total amount reclassified to Class Code 751 in step 1. This should be a positive amount.
3 On the SPA CAAB201 report, ensure that the line item Other Assets:
  • has a beginning balance equal to zero (if there were no other assets in this category).
  • the adjustment column equals the depreciation expense for all prior fiscal years.
  • the additions column equals FY05 depreciation expense only.
  • the deletions column equals FY05 deletions only.
