प्रश्न

A firm purchased a plant for ₹ 40,000. Erection charges amounted to ₹ 2,000. The effective life of the plant is 5 years. Calculate the amount of depreciation per year under the straight-line method.

संख्यात्मक

उत्तर

Calculation of the amount of depreciation

Amount of depreciation = `("Original cost" - "Scrap value")/"Estimated life"`

Original cost = Purchase of plant + Erection charges

= ₹ 40,000 + ₹ 2,000 = ₹ 42,000

Estimated life = 5 years = `(₹ 42,000 - 0)/(5 "years")` = ₹ 8,400
