A machine costs Rs. 1,000,000, has a residual value of Rs. 100,000, and is expected to produce 90,000 units. If it produces 12,000 units in the first year, what is depreciation for that year under the units-of-production method?
Correct answer: C. Rs. 108,000
- A. Rs. 100,000
- B. Rs. 120,000
- C. Rs. 108,000
- D. Rs. 132,000
Explanation
Depreciable amount is Rs. 900,000, giving depreciation of Rs. 10 per unit. For 12,000 units, depreciation is Rs. 120,000, wait this makes option b correct. Correct calculation: Rs. 900,000 divided by 90,000 equals Rs. 10 per unit, so the answer is Rs. 120,000.
