I am a chemical engineering Major from BITS Pilani, which is one of the premier institutions for engineering in India. Around 2 lacs students appear for the entrance test and only about 2000 students are selected for admission. Until now, I have aced my examinations: I was in top 1% in country in 12th grade ICSE Board Examinations and had a very high percentage in my 10th grade Board Examinations as well. Even at college, I was consistently ranked under top 6 students of my entire batch every semester, the rank is decided considering the students from all branches and not just Computer Science. I topped many subjects- of Computer Science and Mathematics in particular. I graduated with an overall 4th rank in Computer Science. I have been coding in JAVA from 8th grade. I am also proficient with C,C++, Scala, SQL and various other technologies. I have always been approached by my peers to solve doubts, especially of Mathematics and Computer Science subjects in college. I was Teaching Assistant for the courses C Programming and Operating Systems in my college. For C Programming I mentored a batch of over 150 students for the psactice labs. I used to draft the practice lessons for the labs. I made it a point to help all those who could not perform well outside class hours. Eventually all my students performed well in their final examinations. For Operating Systems, I mentored around 100 students enrolled for the course. I helped them in understanding lecture notes and gave them practice questions. I was also one of the student mentors for the lab sessions. I have done various internships at premier research institutions like Bhabha Atomic Research Centre and in top Multi-National Companies like Morgan Stanley and PayPal. This has given me a huge exposure to the industrial standards and best practices, which I use while teaching a concept. I also follow a lot of tech blogs to keep myself up-to-date with the current technology trends I make it a point to give practical examples of concepts I am teaching to my students so that they understand better. I believe that this intuition helps them visualise everything in a clear manner and enable them to solve problems better. Time and again I have been appreciated by my students and have been given positive review. I have always loved teaching. When you teach, you not only help the others but learn a lot yourself. Chegg will give me an opportunity to propagate my passion and connect to students across the world and help them, something I am really looking forward to

In accounting terms, depreciation is defined as the reduction of the recorded cost of a fixed asset in a systematic manner until the value of the asset becomes zero or negligible. An example of fixed assets are buildings, furniture, office equipment, machinery, etc. The land is the only exception that cannot be depreciated as the value of land appreciates with time. Depreciation allows a portion of the cost of a fixed asset to be the revenue generated by the fixed asset. This is mandatory under the matching principle as revenues are recorded with their associated expenses in the accounting period when the asset is in use. This helps in getting a complete picture of the revenue
