Managing fixed assets and calculating depreciation

Sounds pretty straightforward, right?

You buy an asset and write it off over its useful life using a method prescribed either by your own accounting policies or the relevant tax authorities.

Well, in practice, whilst this may sound simple, there are lots of real life day-to-day examples of events that occur which can complicate these matters considerably.
