Working Note:

Calculation of Profit or loss on sale of machine:

Original cost on 01 Jan 2016 = ₹ 90,000

Less: Depreciation for 2015-16 (3 months)

`90,000 xx 12/100 xx 3/12` = ₹ 2,700

W.D.V. on 01 Apr 2016 = ₹ 90,000 − ₹ 2,700 = ₹ 87,300

Less: Depreciation for 2016-17 (12 months)

`90,000 xx 12/100` = ₹ 10,800

W.D.V. on 01 Apr 2016 = ₹ 76,500

Less: Depreciation for 2017-18 (6 months)

`90,000 xx 12/100 xx 6/12` = ₹ 5,400

Depreciation = `40,000 xx 12/100 = 4800`

1st july 2017 to 31 march 2018 (45,000 9 month)

`45,000 xx 12/100 xx 9/12 = 4050`

W.D.V. on date of sale = 71,100

Less: Selling price = 70,000

∴ Loss on sale of machine = ₹ 1,100
