The accumulated depreciation account is an asset account with a credit balance (also known as a contra asset account); this means that it appears on the balance sheet as a reduction from the gross amount of fixed assets reported.
Depreciation expense records the value of depreciation that has been moved from the balance sheet and onto the income statement during the period. When fixed assets depreciate, a journal entry is made to credit, or increase, the amount of accumulated depreciation associated with the fixed asset. Simultaneously, an equivalent debit is made to increase the amount of depreciation expense for the period.
