Year 3 50%

Year 1 12,500

Year 2 31,250

There are several factors that cause a decrease in the ability of fixed assets to provide benefits that can be identified as physical depreciation or functional depreciation:

Physical depreciation occurs from damage and wear when used and due to weather effects.

Functional depreciation (functional depreciation) occurs if the said fixed assets are no longer able to provide benefits at the level as expected.
