Revenue recognition
Sales represent the fair value of consideration received or receivable for provision of motor vehicle repair and services.
Property and equipment
All categories of property and equipment are initially recognized at historical cost. All other items of property and equipment are stated at their fair value less accumulated depreciation for the period. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying value only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured ( Chalu & Nyello, 2019) . Depreciation is calculated using the reducing balance method to write down the cost of each asset to its residual value over its estimated useful life using the following annual rates:
Rate - %
Equipment’s 10
Furniture’s 10
Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount the recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less cost to sell and value in use. Gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in determining operating profit.

The equipment and furniture were acquired during the fincial year. There were no disposal of any of the equipment’s or furniture during the fincial year (Chalu & Nyello, 2019) . The net values of equipment was found to be 18,00 USD while that of furniture to be 4,500 USD respectively after factoring the deprecation for the period of 2,000 USD and 500 USD for equipment and furniture respectively as follows;
Depreciation of equipment’s = 20,000*0.1 = 2,000
Depreciation of furniture = 5,000*0.1 = 500
This assets are expected to have a useful life of ten years as from their purchase date to the organization.

Deprecation on equipment’s = 20,000*.10 =2,000
Deprecation on equipment’s = 5,000*.10 =500
