You'll need three columns: The first column registers the depreciation deduction (aka depreciation expense) you plan to take each year. The second column shows the depreciation that has accumulated at the end of each year. The third column logs the book value of the asset at the end of each year.
To record an accounting entry for depreciation, a depreciation expense account is debited and a contra asset account (accumulated depreciation) is credited. Apart from this, businesses need to understand where and how the entries go on financial statements, and the depreciation method they should use.
Where is Depreciation Tracked? Depreciation is typically tracked one of two places: on an income statement or balance sheet. For income statements, depreciation is listed as an expense. It accounts for depreciation charged to expense for the income reporting period.
A depreciation journal entry records the reduction in value of a fixed asset each period throughout its useful life. These journal entries debit the depreciation expense account and credit the accumulated depreciation account, reducing the book value of the asset over time.

In Excel, the function SYD depreciates an asset using this method. In cell C5, enter "sum of years date." Enter "=SYD(B1,B2,B3,6)" into cell C6. Calculate the other depreciation values using the sum of the years' digits method in Excel with this function.
Depreciation is recorded as a debit to a depreciation expense account and a credit to a contra asset account called accumulated depreciation. Contra accounts are used to track reductions in the valuation of an account without changing the balance in the original account.
Each period's depreciation amount is calculated using the formula: annual depreciation rate/ number of periods in the year. For example, in a 12 period year, if an asset's expected life is 60 months, the annual depreciation rate for the asset is: 12/60 = 20%, and the depreciation rate per period is 20% /12 = 0.0167%.
