i. working note
Calculation of depreciation amount using the straight-line method
Yearly Depreciation = original cost – salvage value / life of asset
= 2,50,000 – 10,000 / 10
= Rs. 24,000
Depreciation for 22-month = 24,000 × 22 / 12 = Rs. 44,000
ii. working note
Amount of service revenue = Rs. 24,000 × 6 / 12 = Rs. 12,000
iii. working note
Interest for two months = 12,000 × 0.12 × 2 / 12 = Rs. 240
iv. working note
The salary for two days i.e. Monday and Tuesday = Rs. 25,000 × 2 / 5
= Rs. 10,000
