Residual, or salvage value, is the net amount that can be expected to be
obtained when the asset is disposed at the end of its service life.

Changes and Corrections of Depreciation
Changes and Corrections of Depreciation
A change in the depreciation method for currently owned assets is accounted for by a cumulative-effect change.
Adoption of a new depreciation method for newly acquired assets does not require any adjustment to the accounts.
A change in an estimate of the residual value or the service life of a currently owned asset is accounted for prospectively.
Correction of an error in depreciation is treated as prior period adjustment.
