Suggested Answer:
Box 1: Method -
When you set up a fixed asset depreciation profile and select Straight line service life in the Method field in the Depreciation profiles page, the assets that have this depreciation profile assigned to them are depreciated based on the total service life of the asset. This generally is the same depreciation amount in each depreciation period.

Box 2: Convention -
Depreciation conventions are used to determine when and how depreciation is calculated for both the year when the fixed asset is acquired and the year when the fixed asset is disposed of.
Example: Mid month (15th of month)
