    ₹15,00,000. It charges depreciation @15% p.a. under the Diminishing Balance Method. The written-down value of the machinery as on 31st March 2025 will be:
    A ₹10,83,750 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B ₹12,75,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C ₹9,00,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D ₹10,12,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    • WDV at end of Year 1 (31-Mar-2024): 15,00,000 - (15% of 15,00,000) = 15,00,000 - 2,25,000 = ₹12,75,000. • WDV at end of Year 2 (31-Mar-2025): 12,75,000 - (15% of 12,75,000) = 12,75,000 - 1,91,250 = ₹10,83,750.
