Working Notes:

1. Calculation of Profit or Loss on sale as Machine:

Original cost on 01.04.2016 = ₹ 20,000

Less: Dep. for 2016-17 (12 months) = ₹ 2,000

W.D.V. on 01.04.2017 = ₹ 18,000

Less : Dep. for 2016-17 (12 months) = ₹ 1,800

W.D.V. on 01.04.2018 = ₹ 16,200

Less : Dep. for 2018-19 (9 months) = ₹ 1,215

W.D.V. on date of sale = ₹ 14,985

Less : Selling Price = ₹ 18,000

∴ Profit on sale & machine = ₹ 3,015

2. Depreciation for 2018-19

(a) Opening balance on 01.04.2018 = ₹ 77,100

Less : W.D.V. of Machine sold on 01.04.2018 = ₹ 16,200

10% depreciation on 60,900 = ₹ 6,090

(b) Purchase of Machine on 01.07.2018 20,000 – 10% – 9 months = ₹ 6,090 + ₹ 1,500 = ₹ 7,590
