Working Notes:

1. Calculation of Profit or loss on sale of furniture:

Original cost on 01.04.2014 = ₹ 20,000

Less: Depreciation for 2014-15 (12 months) = ₹ 2,000

W.D.V. on 01.04.2015 = ₹ 18,000

Less: Depreciation for 2015-16 = ₹ 900

W.D.V. on date of sale = ₹ 17,100

Less: Selling price = ₹ 15,000

∴ Loss on sale of furniture = ₹ 2,100

2. Calculation of Depreciation for 2016 -17:

(a) Opening balance on 01.04.2015 = ₹ 27,500

Less: W.D.V. of furniture sold on 01.04.2015 = ₹ 18,000

9,500 – 10% = ₹ 950

(b) Purchase of furniture on 01.10.2015 – 10% – 6months = 950 + 1,000 = ₹ 1,950
