Depreciation refers to the decrease in fixed asset value due to deterioration or obsolescence, and is accounted for using methods such as Written Down Value (WDV) and Straight Line Method (SLM). The SLM formula is calculated as (Cost - Scrap Value) / Useful Life, and the journal entry for depreciation involves debiting the Asset Account.
