W.D.V=564427.94                                                                                                                  2.     W.D.V as on 1stjune=564427.94-564427.94*15%*2/12=550316.94                                                        Less sale proceeds                                         =460000                                                            Loss on sale                                                                    =90316.94                                                 3.         bank a/c Dr.261557                                                                                                                                                        party a/c Dr.198443                                                                                                                                                     p&la/c Dr.90316.94                                                                                                                                                      To     scorpio   a/c550316.94                                                                                                   4.          bank loan a/c Dr198303                                                                                                                                        to bank    a/c198303                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

Sorry!!!!

Mah fault

 totally ignored the date part, I overlooked it.

 

But anyways I too agree with Sheetal

I AGREE WITH SHEETAL

If its profit on sale of the fixed asset, we have to disregard it fron the computation right?

In above Case can we claim depreciation (Rs.21166/-) against our business income or claim short term capital loss as block of assets get zaro, and if block of assets not zero then what would be the treatment !!!

its corret

Vehicle Price = 500000/-

Dep.= 10% 

Use in 20 Year

Sale of Vehicle= 100000/-

tell me loss or profit on asset and make nessecery entry in book

thanking you
