Advertisement
| Depreciation on Plant & Machinery | = | 5 | X | 40,000 |
| 100 | ||||
| = | Rs 2,000 |
| Depreciation on Furniture & Fixtures | = | 5 | X | 1,200 |
| 100 | ||||
| = | Rs 60 |
| Depreciation on Loose Tools | = | 15 | X | 3,000 |
| 100 | ||||

Calculation of Outstanding Rent
| Prepaid Insurance | = | 9 | X | 1,200 |
| 12 | ||||

Calculation of Provision for Doubtful Debts
Provision for Doubtful Debts = Sundry Debtors −Further Bad Debts × Rate 100
Advertisement
