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.
