Working note:-
The method of calculating the Deprecation rate:
| Amount of Depreciation = | Cost of assets- Estimated Realizable or Scrap value |
| Number of years of expected useful life |
Rate of Deprecation can be calculated with the help of following formula:
| Rate of Depreciation = | Amount of Depreciation | X100 |
| Total Cost of Assets |
Cost of assets = Cost of Machine + cartage+ unloading + installation + brokerage of the middle man
Cost of assets = 52,000 + 2,000 + 3,000 + 2,000 + 1,000 = 60,000
Number of years of expected useful life = 10 years
Estimated Retaliated or Scrap value = 6,000
| Amount of Depreciation = | 60,000 – 6,000 | = 5,400 |
| 10 |
Rate of Deprecation can be calculated with the help of following formula:
| Rate of Depreciation = | 5,400 | X100 |
| 60,000 |
=9%
| Statement Showing profit or loss on the sale of Machinery | Cr. |
| Particulars |
Amount |
|---|---|
| Book value of machinery as on 1st April 2015 when it was purchased | 60,000 |
| Add: commission to an agent | 600 |
| 60,600 | |
| Less: - Amount of Depreciation charged on the year 2015-16 | |
| 10,000*9%*12/12 | 5,400 |
| Amount of Depreciation charged on the year 2016-17 | 5,400 |
| Amount of Depreciation charged on the year 2017-18 | |
| 10,000*9%*6/12 | 2,700 |
| Sale Price of Machinery | 30,600 |
