The answer given is 30%..

Hello Mahmooda Zain,

Use this formulae

         Rate = 1 – 4th root of(WDV/original cost)

                 = 1 - 4th root of(24%*original cost/original cost)

                 = 1 - 4th root of .24

                 = 1 - .699

                 = .30 = 30%

Got it. Thank you so much.. Shubham Garg :D
