one of the companies had a car since 1/1/2010 at a cost of 900,000 SR, and its life span is ten years and depreciated using the straight-line method and has no value as scrap. On 1/2014/2014 the car was sold for SR 450,000.
Required
Calculating book value and selling result of the instrument
Preparing the necessary daily entries for 2014
Solution:
Annual depreciation on car = 900000/10 = 90000 SR
Depreciation charged from 2010 to 2013 = 90000*4 = 360000 SR
Book value of Car = 900000 - 360000 = 540000 SR
Sale value of car = 450000 SR
Loss on sale of Car = 540000 - 450000 = 90000 SR
