Summary

Introduction

This study deals with fixed assets which are the means used by an organization in carrying out its operational activities to support all company activities (Sunyatama & Ngumar, 2017). The calculation of depreciation of fixed assets is an important enough part to be studied because if the fixed assets are not measured and calculated appropriately, it will have an impact on the presentation of misleading financial statements. One of the media used to fulfill this is by presenting reliable financial reports that can be accounted for (Muslim M, 2014). One of the objectives of making financial reports is for stakeholders to be able to know the picture of an organization's financial condition (Muslim et al, 2018)
