    Purchase price=Rs. 4,70,000
    Salvage value=10% of Rs. 4,70,000=Rs.47,000
    Net capital=Rs.4,70,000-Rs.47,000=Rs.4,23,000
    Capital recovered=Rs 1,00,000 per year
    Therefore, capital recovery period=(4,23,000/1,00,000)=4.23 years

    10%of 470000=47000
    470000-47000=423000
    Therefore recovery period will be 4.23years
