Notice that the useful life of an asset is defined in terms of the assets expected usefulness to a
particular entity. Entities asset management policies usually involve the disposal/derecognition
of assets after a specified time or after consumption of a specified proportion of the future
economic benefits embodied in the asset.
Useful life is entity specific whereas economic life is not. Therefore, the useful life of an asset
can either be shorter than or equal to its economic life.
