Answer 2

《✭》Required《✭》

• Let the original cost of machine=rs.100

Depreciation during 1st year =10% of 100= rs.10

Value of machine at the beginning of 2nd year= rs.100- rs.10= rs.90

Depreciation during 2nd year =10% of 90=rs.9

Now, when depreciation during 2nd year= rs.9 and the original cost= rs.100

A.T.Q.

• Depreciation during 2nd year= rs.2250

Original cost=100/9×2250= 25000

✭So the original cost of the machine is rs 25000✭
