उत्तर

Original cost = Purchase of machinery + repair charges

= 38,000 + 12,000

= 50,000

Residual value = 6,000

Estimated life = 4 years 

Amount of depreciation = `("Original cost" - "Scrap value")/"Estimates life"`

`= (50,000 - 6,000)/(4  "years")`

`= (44,000)/4`

= ₹ 11,000

Rate of depreciation = `"Amount of depreciaton"/"Original cost" xx 100`

= `(11,000)/(50,000) xx 100`

= 22%
