Sale of part of assets and treatment in books

654 views 2 replies

Dear members

 

10 years ago 5 separate machineries were purchased through a single invoice and capitalised in the books.  The cost of  individual machineries and Depreciation reserve are not known today.  The company is charging depreciation regularly on wdv.

Now the company is going to replace one of the above machinery and it will be a capital nature.  My query is

 

1.  How to arrive at the WDV for the old machine which is going to be replaced by new one.

2. Method of accouing profit / loss in the books.

As per your information, we can get the aquisition cost of Palnt through that Invoice and Calculate the depreciation as if that the only plant by applying the same rate what you used for entire Block and arrive the figure after providing for 10 years

 

To account for the same, write off the WDV of plant Replaced (Show Net, If realised any value on scrap) 

Capitalize the new Plant Purchased

 

For Calculating Depreciation as per Income Tax act it will be little different

You can get Cost of that machinery through invoice and then can work out profit or loss
