Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Cost of the asset = Rs. 6,000 Salvage Value = Rs. 1,000 Total Depreciation Cost = Cost of asset – Salvage Value = 6000 – 1000 = Rs. 5000 Useful life of the asset = 5 years Thus, annual depreciation cost = (Cost of asset – Salvage Cost)/Useful Life = 5000/5 = Rs. 1000.Related Questions on Accounting
