To find the percentage of each expense, you would divide the total expenses by the total of each expense category. Right-click on the cell where you want to display the percentage and format the cell to display the value as a percent. You also can select the number of decimal places to display.

If your total expenses are displayed in cell N12 and your office expenses are in cell N3, put the following formula in O3: =N3/N12. This will divide the office expenses by the total expenses and give you a decimal. If Total Expenses are $100 and Office Expenses are $20, cell O3 will display .2. When you format the cell to display as a percent, you will see .2 change to 20% (if you format to display 0 decimal places). If you want to display as 20.00%, then format to display 2 decimal places.

What is the smallest unit of time to calculate depreciation?

A calendar month is the smallest unit of time used to calculate depreciation. A plant asset may be placed in service at a date other than the first day of a fiscal period. In such cases, depreciation expense is calculated to the nearest first of a month. To calculate depreciation expense for part of a year, the annual depreciation expense is divided by 12 to determine depreciation expense for a month. The monthly depreciation is then multiplied by the number of months the plant asset was used that year.
