Calculate the amount of cash from sale of machinery from the following items :

A machine costing Rs. 20,000 having book value of Rs. 15,000 is sold for Rs. 12,000 and depreciation charged during the year was Rs. 8,000. The opening and closing balance in machinery account was Rs. 1,80,000 and Rs. 1,72,000 respectively.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Cash from sale of machinery equals the sale price, which is Rs. 12,000 (as given directly in the problem). The other data (book value, depreciation, opening/closing balances) is extraneous for this specific calculation.
