उत्तर

Let value of the soooter be Rs x. 

Vo =Rs x ; n = 2 ; r = 12 % 

Depreciation in the first year = 

`therefore "V"_"t" = "V"_0 xx (1 - "r"/100)^"n"`

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  "x" xx (1 - 12/100)`

`=> "V"_"t" ="Rs"  "x" xx 22/25 `

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  0.88  "x"`

Depreciation in the second year = 

`therefore "V"_"t" = "V"_0 xx (1 - "r"/100)^"n"`

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  0.88  "x" xx (1 - 12/100)`

`=> "V"_"t" ="Rs"   0.88  "x" xx 22/25 `

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  0.7744  "x"`

Depreciation in the value of soooter in the second year 

=Rs (0.88 x - 0.7744 x) =Rs 2,640 
⇒  0.1056 x = Rs 2,640 
⇒  x =Rs 25,000 
The original value of the soooter was Rs 25,000.
