Solution

The cost of a machine is ₹ 50000. It depreciates 10% every year. The cost of machine after 1 year will be ₹ 45000.

Explanation:

The cost of a machine is ₹ 50000 and it depreciates by 10% every year.

To find the cost of the machine after 1 year, we calculate:

Depreciation for one year

= 10% of ₹ 50000 

= ₹ `(10/100) xx 50000`

= ₹ 5000
Cost after 1 year

= Original cost – Depreciation 

= ₹ 50000 – ₹ 5000

= ₹ 45000

Therefore, the cost of the machine after 1 year will be ₹ 45000.
