Working Note:

WN1: Calculation of Amount of Depreciation

$\begin{array}{l}\mathrm{Depreciation}\mathrm{}\mathrm{on}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Machinery}\mathrm{}=2,00,000\mathrm{}\times \mathrm{}\frac{15}{100}\mathrm{}=\mathrm{Rs}\mathrm{}30,000\\ \mathrm{Depreciation}\mathrm{}\mathrm{on}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Motor}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Vehicle}\mathrm{}=1,50,000\mathrm{}\times \mathrm{}\frac{20}{100}\mathrm{}=\mathrm{Rs}\mathrm{}30,000\end{array}$

WN2: Calculation of Provision for Doubtful Debts

$\begin{array}{ccl}\mathrm{Provision}\mathrm{}\mathrm{for}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Doubtful}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Debts}& =& (\mathrm{Sundry}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Debtors}\mathrm{}-\mathrm{Further}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Bad}\mathrm{}\mathrm{Debts}\mathrm{})\mathrm{}\times \mathrm{}\frac{\mathrm{Rate}}{100}\\ & =& \mathrm{}(70,000\mathrm{}-\mathrm{}500)\times \mathrm{}\frac{1}{100}=\mathrm{Rs}\mathrm{}695\end{array}$

WN3: Calculation of Outstanding Salaries and Wages

$\begin{array}{l}\text{Salaries and Wages paid for 10 months = 24,000}\\ \text{Salaries and Wages outstanding for 2 months =24,000 ×}\frac{\text{2}}{\text{10}}\text{= Rs 4,800}\end{array}$
