10If the life of an existing partially depreciated asset is extended on the first day of Q4 and depreciation for Q1-3 is 50k per quarter and the new life results in depreciation of 40k per quarter then the depreciation for year 1 of the change should be
50 x 3 + 40 = 190 (This is the desired result)
But GP Fixed Assets is adjusting Q4 such that year 1 depreciation is 40 x 4 = 160 by making Q4 depreciation be only 10.
50 x 3 + 10 = 160 (This is a problem because it causes an anomaly in financial reporting in Q4)
Year 2 depreciation will be recorded at 40 per quarter = 160 which is fine
