Economic depreciation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In economics and accounting, economic depreciation is seen as the change in the market value of capital over a given period. It is calculated as the market price of the capital at the beginning of the period minus its market price at the end of the period.
Such a method in calculating depreciation differs from other methods, such as straight-line depreciation in that it is included in the calculation of implicit cost, and thus economic profit.
