Solution

The correct option is D Rs. 11,070

Purchase Price of Machine Rs. 80,000

Installation Charges Rs. 20,000.

Cost = Purchase Price of Machine + Installation Charges

= 80,000+20,000 = 100000

Residual Value Rs. 40,960

Useful life 4 years

Calculation of depreciation at the end of 1st year

Depreciation = Cost – Residual Value/ Estimated Useful life

=1,00,000-40,960/4

= 14760

Rate of Depreciation = Annual Depreciation/Cost of machinery X 100

=14760/1,00,000 X 100

= 14.76%

Book Value as on 31st March 1,00,000

Depreciation @14.76%

(1,00,000 X 14.76% X 9/12) = 11070.
