Solution

Given, the purchase price of the car = V

= ₹ 2,45,000

Rate of depreciation per annum = r

= `14 2/7%`

= `100/7%`

∴ Value of the car after two years = V`(1 - "r"/100)^"n"`

= `2,45,000 (1 - (100/7)/100)^2`

= 2,45,000`(1 - 1/7)^2`

= 2,45,000 × `36/49`

= 1,80,000

∴ Value of the car after two years is ₹ 1,80,000.
