Depredations for the year 31/3/2010 is 40000*15÷100*6÷12=3000 so 40000-3000=37000.
depreciation for the year 31/3/2011 is 37000*15÷100=5550 so 37000-5550=31450.
depreciation for the year 31/3/2012 is 31450*15÷100= 4717.5 so 31450-4717.5=26732.5
so answer is 26732.5

Introduction
To calculate the depreciation for the year 2011-12, we will first determine the written down value (WDV) of the machines at the beginning of that year and apply the depreciation rate of 15% on it.
Details of Machines and Depreciation Calculation
- Initial Cost of Machines:
- Machine 1: Rs. 40,000
- Machine 2: Rs. 30,000
- Total Initial Cost: Rs. 70,000
- Depreciation Rate: 15%
Calculation of Depreciation for Previous Years
1. For the year 2009-10:
- Depreciation = 15% of 70,000 = Rs. 10,500
- WDV at the end of 2009-10 = 70,000 - 10,500 = Rs. 59,500
2. For the year 2010-11:
- Depreciation = 15% of 59,500 = Rs. 8,925
- WDV at the end of 2010-11 = 59,500 - 8,925 = Rs. 50,575
3. For the year 2011-12:
- Depreciation = 15% of 50,575 = Rs. 7,586.25
Conclusion
- The depreciation for the year 2011-12 is Rs. 7,586.25.
This calculation reflects the impact of the depreciation policy on the machines as they age, ensuring that the financial statements accurately represent the value of the assets over time.
