"What's our fixed assets' book value really worth?" "How much depreciation do we accrue next month?" "What net value is left on assets over 5 years old?" — for these value questions, finance once pulled tables by hand for two days a month. Asset value analysis auto-accrues by 4 depreciation methods, with monthly net value refreshed in real time.
Each item maps to a finance voucher or a management decision
Tally booked original value by department / category / acquisition method (purchase / self-built / donated / contributed), compared by dimension
Real-time computation of each asset's accumulated depreciation, summarized by category, department and years-in-service bands
Original value - accumulated depreciation = net value; generate a monthly net-value snapshot, summarized at year-end into a net-value trend
Auto-accrue once at each month-end by the preset depreciation method, with vouchers auto-generated and posted after finance review
Straight-line / units-of-production / double-declining-balance / sum-of-years'-digits, configurable by category
Suggest impairment provisions for long-idle / severely aged assets; finance issues provision vouchers per the suggestion
On the last day of each month, the system auto-runs a batch: scan every asset, compute the month's depreciation by its category's method, add to accumulated depreciation, refresh net value, and generate the depreciation voucher. Finance only reviews exceptions (disposal / impairment / adjustment) to close — saving a full day of manual calculation.
Net value snapshots, last 6 months (¥10k)
"This year's fixed-asset net value change" — a must-have in the annual report. The system generates a monthly net-value snapshot and auto-plots a 12-month net-value curve, overlaying the three forces of "additions / reductions / accrual," so the CFO sees at a glance "which part drove the net value change."
On the 28th finance runs the depreciation batch, reviews exceptions on the 30th, and at month-end close all depreciation vouchers are done — no manual calculation.
Auditors pull the annual depreciation, accumulated depreciation and impairment provision detail; the system exports Excel per the audit template in one click with a seal.
When disposing of retired assets, price with net value as reference — dual inputs of "book value + second-hand market" avoid selling at a loss.
For bank financing requiring an asset valuation certificate, the system re-values net value by the chosen method, adjusts by industry coefficient, and issues a valuation table.
Value is the finance perspective, connecting to disposal, reports and analysis
Disposal price - net value = disposal P&L; value data is the basis for disposal decisions
Depreciation / net value / impairment tables are standard month-end close attachments
The net-value curve + residual-value curve are key to lifecycle judgments
The overview dashboard's top-screen metrics are total original value / total net value
