*1:- Calculation of the amount of Depreciation on machinery for F/Y 2015-16
Purchased on 1st July 2015
Depreciation = Value of Asset X Rate of Depreciation X Period
Value of Asset = 60,000
Rate of Depreciation = 10%
Period = from 01/07/15 to 31/03/16 i.e. 9 months
(from the date of purchase/Beginning balance to the end of the financial year)
=60,000 X 10/100 X 9/12
Depreciation =4,500
Purchased 1st January 2016
Depreciation = Value of Asset X Rate of Depreciation X Period
Value of Asset = 40,000
Rate of Depreciation = 10%
Period = from 01/1/15 to 31/03/16 i.e. 3 months
(from the date of purchase/Beginning balance to the end of the financial year)
