He heard that you were a CPA and made the following comments to you: Why is it that I am forced to recognize depreciation expense in my company's income statement when know that I could sell many of my assets for more than I paid for them? I thought that the purpose of the balance sheet was to reflect the value of my business and that the purpose of the income statement was to report the net change in value or wealth of a company. It just doesn't make sense to penalize my profits when there hasn't been any loss in value from using the assets.
