Machine A/c for Four Years
Initial Cost of Machine:
The company purchased a machine for 35,00,000, which includes a boiler worth 1,00,000.
Depreciation Calculation:
The company provides depreciation at a rate of 10% using the straight-line method.
To calculate annual depreciation, we use the formula:
Annual Depreciation = (Cost of Machine - Salvage Value) / Useful Life
Year 1:
Cost of Machine: 35,00,000
Salvage Value: 0 (as it is the first year)
Useful Life: 4 years
Annual Depreciation = (35,00,000 - 0) / 4 = 8,75,000
The depreciation for the first year is 8,75,000.
Year 2:
Cost of Machine: 35,00,000
Salvage Value: 0 (as it is the second year)
Useful Life: 4 years
Annual Depreciation = (35,00,000 - 0) / 4 = 8,75,000
The depreciation for the second year is also 8,75,000.
Year 3:
Cost of Machine: 35,00,000
Salvage Value: 0 (as it is the third year)
Useful Life: 4 years
Annual Depreciation = (35,00,000 - 0) / 4 = 8,75,000
The depreciation for the third year is also 8,75,000.
Year 4:
Cost of Machine: 35,00,000
Salvage Value: 0 (as it is the fourth year)
Useful Life: 4 years
Annual Depreciation = (35,00,000 - 0) / 4 = 8,75,000
The depreciation for the fourth year is also 8,75,000.
Discarding the Boiler:
After four years, the boiler became useless and was discarded for 20,000. Since the boiler was a part of the machine, we need to adjust the machine's value accordingly.
Machine Value after Four Years = Initial Cost of Machine - Total Depreciation + Value of Discarded Boiler
Machine Value after Four Years = 35,00,000 - (8,75,000 + 8,75,000 + 8,75,000 + 8,75,000) + 20,000
Machine Value after Four Years = 35,00,000 - 35,00,000 + 20,000 = 20,000
Machine A/c:
The machine account for four years can be summarized as follows:
Year | Depreciation | Accumulated Depreciation
-------------------------------------
1 | 8,75,000 | 8,75,000
2 | 8,75,000 | 17,50,000
3 | 8,75,000 | 26,25,000
4 | 8,75,000 | 35,00,000
4 | - | 35,00,000
