Research background: As you know, one of the main accounting principles that determine the methodology for assessing the facts of economic life is business continuity. Compliance with this principle by commercial organizations is associated with many factors, one of which is their ability to provide funding for the continuation and development of activities. Carrying out activities for the acquisition of new or modernization and technical re-equipment of existing fixed assets implies one-time cash costs. That is why one of the main sources of financing for updating and modernization and technical re-equipment of fixed assets is depreciation deductions. Depreciation deductions for fixed assets in accounting and tax accounting are calculated differently, which determines the relevance and need for a clear study of accounting procedures in the field of their accounting.
Purpose of the article: The purpose of the article is to conduct a comparative analysis of the procedure for calculating and accounting for depreciation deductions for fixed assets in accounting and tax accounting and to study ways to bring them closer together.
Methods: Methods of comparative analysis, induction and deduction were used in the article.
Findings & Value added: The current rules for calculating depreciation deductions for fixed assets and their reflection in accounting and reporting do not provide a reliable reflection of the facts of economic activity of the enterprise. And this in turn leads to a misunderstanding by the respective users of the contents of the statement of financial position and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and the essence of depreciation itself.
Key words: accounting / fixed assets / depreciation / depreciation methods
