Calculation of Depreciation
Depreciation is the measure of the wear and tear of the machinery. It is calculated by applying the rate of depreciation on the original cost of the machinery. In this question, depreciation is provided at the rate of 10% p.a. by the diminishing value method.
The formula for calculating depreciation by the diminishing value method is:
Depreciation = Opening Balance x Rate of Depreciation
Opening Balance = Original Cost - Depreciation Charged in the Previous Year
Year 1 (1st July 2015 - 31st March 2016)
Opening Balance = Rs. 200000
Depreciation = Rs. 200000 x 10% = Rs. 20000
Closing Balance = Rs. 180000
Year 2 (1st April 2016 - 31st March 2017)
Opening Balance = Rs. 180000
Depreciation = Rs. 180000 x 10% = Rs. 18000
Closing Balance = Rs. 162000
Year 3 (1st April 2017 - 30th September 2017)
Opening Balance = Rs. 162000
Depreciation = Rs. 162000 x 10% = Rs. 16200
Closing Balance = Rs. 145800
