Since the Book values for the three machines is not visible in parathensis from the below we have that the first row is | ||||
pertaining to the market values and rest are book values .So the first row have been taken as the market value or the | ||||
appriasal value when making the purchase | ||||
The apportioned cost is based on the rule that when there is a lumpsum payment made for various purchases it is | ||||
necessary that the relative % of the appriased value is calculated and then allocated the lump sum amount as per that | ||||
% to the various purchases to find the cost of acquisition. | ||||
So the calculation for the three machine will be as below | ||||
Machine 1 | ($202000)*.25 | |||
Machine 2 | ($202000)*.33 | |||
Machine 3 | ($202000)*.42 | |||
