Working Notes:
1. `"Calculation of Depreciation per annum:
Depreciation" = "Original cost of an asset (−) Scrapvalue"/ "Estimated life of asset in years"`
= `"1,80,000 − 30,000"/10`
= `"1,50,000"/10`
= ₹ 15,000 p.a.
2. Calculation of Profit or loss on sale of machine:
Original cost 01.01.2017 = ₹ 1,80,000
Less: Depreciation for 2016-17 (3 months) = ₹ 3,750
W.D.V. on 01-04-2017 = ₹ 1,76,250
Less: Depreciation for 2019-18 (12 months) = ₹ 15,000
W.D.V. on 01.04.2018 = ₹ 1,61,250
Less: Depreciation for 2018-19 (6 months) = ₹ 7,500
W.D.V. on date of sale = ₹ 1,53,750
Less: Selling price = ₹ 1,50,000
∴ Loss on sale of machine = ₹ 3,750
