| Depreciation on Machinery | = | 10 | X | 20,000 |
| 100 | ||||
| = | Rs 2,000 |
| Depreciation on Patents | = | 20 | X | 7,500 |
| 100 | ||||
| = | Rs 1,500 |
Calculation of Provision for Doubtful Debts

Provision for Doubtful Debts = Sundry Debtors −Further Bad Debts × Rate 100
| Provision for Doubtful Debts | = | 5 | X | 14,500 – 500 |
| 100 | ||||
