Q. What do you mean by depreciable asset?

A depreciable asset is a manufactured asset such like a building, vehicle, machine or piece of equipment that provides service to a business. In time these assets drop their utility because of (a) wear and tear from use or (b) obsolescence due to technological change. Since companies slowly use up these assets over time they record depreciation expense on them.
