Working Notes:
1) Calculation of Sale proceeds from Machinery sold on 1st April, 2017
Book Value of the Machine as on 1st April, 2017 = (Total opening balance of Machinery on this date/5)
= ₹ (2,40,000/5) = ₹ 48,000
Loss on Sale of Machinery = ₹ 8,000
Sale proceeds from the Machinery = Book Value of the Machine as on 1st April, 2017 – Loss on Sale
= ₹ (48,000 – 8,000) = ₹ 40,000
2) Calculation of Sale proceeds from Machinery sold on 1st July 2018
Book Value of the Machine as on 1st July, 2018 = [(Total opening balance of Machinery on this date/4) – Depreciation]
= ₹ [(1,68,000/4) – 1,500] = ₹ 40,500
Loss on Sale of Machinery = ₹ 12,500
Sale proceeds from the Machinery = Book Value of the Machine as on 1st July, 2018 – Loss on Sale
= ₹ (40,500 – 12,500) = ₹ 28,000
