are u sure about the buildings? no depreciation for it?
There are like a whole bunch of reasons as to why the depreciation wasn't to be provided for buildings :p
It was unclear whether the buildings were for office or factory. Logically they are required for both of them, but no basis of apportionment were provided.
Secondly straight line method is used for depreciating buildings, you just can't use the reducing balance method.
Last but not the least there was no provision for depreciation provided.

Nice (Y) but just to remind u, it was factory building, factory machinery and office equipment with provision of depreciation for the machinery and the equipment..

GUYS I KNOW YOU WON'T BELIEVE ME
but i have done this question of manufacturing account.
It was in the past papers of OCR
OCR (Oxford, Cambridge and RSA Examinations[1]
i'll show you this question
Depreciation was to be charged on NON CURRENT ASSESTS!
on building as well, if the depreciation is not provided is doesnt mean that building was not supposed to be depreciated.
It could be bought in the year end, or in the start of the year
Their was no PROFIT
their was in fact NET LOSS 11000
depreciation of fact equip was 40k
depreciation for building was 120k
depreciation for office was 20.8 k
Goodwill was 85k
Bank balance was 196000
Aiden capital was 286 000
434 of Mahiria
balance sheet was balancing at 762000
PROFIT of 86K was supposed to be added minus drawings 44

One OAR was 6.7 something and assembly one was 4.53 something dont know the exact!
Indirect wages were apportioned on the basics of No. of employees
Repair and maintenance of machine on the basics of Cost of machinery
Machine was under absorbed and Assembly was over or vice versa. I dont remember much

dude depreciation depends on the nature of the asset.
it's not always we charge depreciation on building on straight line method.
it was FACTORY BUILDING AT COST
