Solution:

Under Straight Line Method depreciation is charged at a specific percentage on the original cost of the asset every year. 

Depreciation= Original Cost (-) Scrap value / Estimated life of the asset (in years) 

Original Cost= Purchasing price of an asset (+) Registration Charges (other expenses of asset)

Using original cost formula to take out the original cost of Motor car.
ஃ Original cost= 55,000 (+) 5,000 = 60,000

Afterward, find the depreciation of the motor car
ஃ  Depreciation= 55,000 (-) 10,000 /10 = 5,000 p.a.

Excitement surges as Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurates Atal Setu, India's longest sea-bridge, with an enticing announcement – toll rates set at just Rs 250 for a one-way trip and Rs 375 for a round trip in the first year! PM Modi's symbolic journey from INS Shikara in Colaba marked the grand commencement. In Navi Mumbai, he dedicated three pivotal infrastructure projects, laying the foundation stone for another. This Rs 21,200 crore investment plan, unfolding over five years, not only enhances Atal Setu's accessibility but also integrates the city's waterfronts with tunnels and flyovers.
