उत्तर

Let the original cost of the machine = Rs. 100.

∴ Depreciation during the 1st year = 15% of Rs. 100 = Rs, 15.

Value of the machine at the beginning of the 2nd year

= Rs.100 - Rs.15 = Rs. 85

∴ Depreciation during the 2nd year = 15% of Rs. 85 = Rs. 12.75

Now, when depreciation during 2nd year = Rs, 12.75,

original cost = Rs. 100

∴ when depreciation during 2nd year = Rs. 5,355.

Original cost = Rs. `100/12.75 xx 5,355` = Rs. 42,000.

Hence, original cost of the machine is Rs. 42,000.
