No depreciation - is it possible?

100 € for “equipment” (life span infinity).
...
For “equipment” there is no depreciation expense, because, in this example, it is assumed, that equipment hold forever, there is no wear and tear for equipment.

There must be some conventional depreciation period any way, isn't it?--Piyavkin (talk) 07:23, 24 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

"Equipment" with infinite life span is included to include in this explanatory example this theoretical border case. --Alex1011 (talk) 12:05, 8 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
