Answer:

Purchase Price of Machine on 1.01.2013 = Rs 25,000

Rate of Depreciation = 30% p.a

Calculation of depreciation as at 31st December 2014

Original cost as on 1.01.2013 = Rs 25,000

Less: Depreciation at the end

as on 31.3.2013

(25,000 X 30% X 3/12) = Rs (1875)

Book Value as on 1.01.2013 = Rs 23125

Less: Depreciation at the end

On 31.3.2014 = Rs (6937)

Book Value on 31.12.2014 = Rs 16187.5

Less: Depreciation till

31.12.2014 = Rs (3642.18)

Book Value as at 31.12.2014 = Rs 12545.3
