    Carrying Value: Net Book Value

    So, on 1st Jan, u had 112000 of assets.

    u bought an asset worth 18000 and sold an asset worth 55000.

    so, the total nbv was 112k+18k-55k=75k.

    the depreciation charge was 17540. this amount is dedected from the nbv to give a new value on 1st jan X9.

    nbv=75000 – 17540 = 57460
