What is the question here?

Depreciation is calculated on actual cost, If you used a computer for part of the year that cost should be recorded as depreciation, if it was scraped on a particular date that is the date of disposal. Accrual accounting adjusts subsequent transactions as if they had occurred on a particular date, cash transactions ignore this
