Question
The gradual and permanent decrease in the value of fixed assets due to any cause.
Solution
Retirement of a Bill of Exchange
Retiring a bill means making payment before the date of maturity. When the acceptor of bill is willing to make the payment of the bill before its due date, then he/she may approach the holder of the bill to accept early payment. The holder generally allows some discount (or rebate) for the unexpired period. Such rebate or discount is an expense for the party receiving the payment and gain for the party making the payment.
