How is a change in depreciation method accounted for?
Solution
Prospectively like changes in accounting estimates
Depreciation method helps accountants in aligning the recognition of cost with the benefits
rendered by asset as per the requirement of IAS 16 that requires rate of depreciation rate to
match the rate at which benefits are extracted from the asset. Thus depreciation method in itself
is an estimation of consumption of utility in the asset.
On the same footings, change in depreciation method is not a change in accounting policy rather
it is a change in accounting estimate. Change in accounting policy only occurs if rules of either
recognition, measurement or presentation of line item are changed. Change in depreciation
method changes neither of these. Therefore, it is a change in accounting estimate.
This is further confirmed by IAS 8
