  2. Depreciation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depreciation

    The double-declining-balance method, or reducing balance method, [10] is used to calculate an asset's accelerated rate of depreciation against its non-depreciated balance during earlier years of assets useful life. When using the double-declining-balance method, the salvage value is not considered in determining the annual depreciation, but the ...

  3. Deferred tax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_tax

    The following example assumes that a company purchases an asset for $1,000 which is depreciated for accounting purposes on a straight-line basis of five years of $200/year. The company claims tax depreciation of 25% per year on a reducing balance basis. The applicable rate of corporate income tax is assumed to be 35%, and the net value is ...

  4. Accelerated depreciation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_depreciation

    For financial reporting purposes, the two most popular methods of accelerated depreciation are the double declining balance method and the sum-of-the-years’ digits method. [1] For tax purposes, the allowable methods of accelerated depreciation depend on the tax law that the taxpayer is subject to.

  5. Reducing agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reducing_agent

    Reducing agents can be ranked by increasing strength by ranking their reduction potentials. Reducers donate electrons to (that is, "reduce") oxidizing agents, which are said to "be reduced by" the reducer. The reducing agent is stronger when it has a more negative reduction potential and weaker when it has a more positive reduction potential.

  6. Redox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redox

    The term redox state is often used to describe the balance of GSH/GSSG, NAD + /NADH and NADP + /NADPH in a biological system such as a cell or organ. The redox state is reflected in the balance of several sets of metabolites (e.g., lactate and pyruvate, beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate), whose interconversion is dependent on these ratios ...

  7. Balance (accounting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_(accounting)

    In banking and accounting, the balance is the amount of money owed (or due) on an account. In bookkeeping, "balance" is the difference between the sum of debit entries and the sum of credit entries entered into an account during a financial period. [1] When total debits exceed the total credits, the account indicates a debit balance.

  8. Reduction potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_potential

    In aqueous solutions, redox potential is a measure of the tendency of the solution to either gain or lose electrons in a reaction. A solution with a higher (more positive) reduction potential than some other molecule will have a tendency to gain electrons from this molecule (i.e. to be reduced by oxidizing this other molecule) and a solution with a lower (more negative) reduction potential ...

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...
