[Voiceover] In the last video, we had this situation where we have to buy a truck every 3 years, because that's how long they last, and we were, at first, just expensing the truck.발음듣기
대기중
It made it look like, the years that we bought the truck, that our business didn't do well, and the other years, it did really well, even though this was a really consistent business.발음듣기
대기중
What we hinted at in the last video is, maybe we can do something called "capitalizing" the expense.발음듣기
대기중
What we do is, instead of just saying that the truck is an expense, we can say that we're buying an asset, that has some useful life beyond the time that we're just expensing it.발음듣기
대기중
We use that $60,000 in cash to buy a truck, so on our balance sheet we now have only 1 asset, called "a truck."발음듣기
대기중
In the asset category, we have a truck, and we are saying that right when it's brand new, it is worth $60,000, and we have no liabilities, so I'll just put a 0 there, and so our equity, our shareholders' equity, 60,000 - 0, which is 60,000.발음듣기
대기중
The way that we account for this truck, that lasts 3 years, is we say, "Look, this has a useful life of 3 years."발음듣기
대기중
Essentially, "Let's just spread that $60,000 out, over the 3 years," or another way to say it, let's say that this truck is costing us $20,000 a year.발음듣기
대기중
Or, another way we can say that, is that we can depreciate the value of the truck, and the depreciation is an expense.발음듣기
대기중
1 third of its value has been served, or it's now $20,000 worth less at the end of the year, than it was at the beginning.발음듣기
대기중
What that does is, it makes our operating profit consistent, which it should be, because we have a very consistent business.발음듣기
대기중
100 - 50 - 20. We make 30 in year 1, 30 in year 2, 30 in year 3, and then we just keep going.발음듣기
대기중
These all become 20s, and so, because we have such a consistent business, we make $30,000 the whole way through.발음듣기
대기중
If you forward to the end of year 1, or the beginning of year 2, what's going to happen is, because we're depreciating the value of the truck, on our balance sheet we took $20,000 depreciation expense, on our balance sheet the value of the truck over the course of the year will go from 60,000 to 40,000.발음듣기
대기중
Then at the end of year 2, if we go another year forward, the value that we keep the trucks on the books for will go down to 20,000.발음듣기
대기중
Then at the end of year 3, it's going to go down to 0, and then we go buy another truck, so we'll go back to 60,000; we'll keep going.발음듣기
대기중
