calculate your own by using this formula:
1-POWER(RV/WDV),1/USEFUL LIFE.
EXAMPLE:
Motor buses, motor lorries, motor cars and motor taxies other than those used in a business of running them on- USEFUL LIFE- 8 YEARS.
WE CALCULATE THE RATE BY TAKING RESIDUAL VALUE 1% OF COST
FOR A NEW ASSETS WE SHOULD USE (RV/COST)
SUPPOSE COST OF ASSETS IS RS. 100
USEFUL LIFE 8 YEARS
STEP 1:- CALCULATE RV/ COST =1/100= 0.01
STEP 2:- PUT THE VALUES IN A EXCEL SHEET AS MENTIONED AT TOP
1-POWER(0.01,1/8) =43.77%
THIS FORMULA SHOULD BE USED WHEN FIRM IS FOLLOWING WDV METHOD.
FOR SLM METHOD:
BY TAKING COST AS RS.100 AND RV 1% OF COST
DIVIDE: 100-1 =99/USEFUL LIFE*100
99/8*100=12.38%.
FOR CAR RUNNING ON HIRE CHANGE ONLY THE USEFUL LIFE IN THE ABOVE FORMULA.
YOU CAN TAKE RV OTHER THAN 1% IN THAT CASE MAKE NECESSARY CHANGES IN THE ABOVE FORMULA.
HOPE IT HELP YOU.
