This statement is True.
Depreciation is charged to profit and Loss A/c as it is an element of Cost. It is also essential to arrive at true value of the asset and also net profit or Loss during a particular accounting period. Even if an asset is not in use, its value is reduced due to the passage of time. Depreciation is Cost/Loss to the business. It is a noncash expenditure.
