At their April 21, 2016 meeting, the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners proclaimed May 5, 2016 as âDay of Prayerâ in Forsyth County. All are invited to meet outside of the Forsyth County Courthouse in downtown Cumming at 10 a.m. on May 5, for observance of âDay of Prayer.â.
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.
Imagine the asset is sold after ten or more years for $500. In this case, you would debit Accumulated Depreciation for $10,000 and Credit Equipment for $10,000 the same as you would for an asset with no value. You would also need to debit the Cash account for $500 and credit the Gain on Asset Disposal account for $500.
