Can you please explain how the figure 492,500 was gotten under the tax allowable depreciation working? Thank you.

Balancing allowance-Bpp Duo Co
11y ago#1I am sorry, but I do not have the BPP book. You will have to tell me which exam it is from.
Hello,
Oh Sorry its December 2007 exam, question 2-Duo Co. Thank you.
11y ago#3The examiner has shown his workings in a strange way.
The tax written down value after 3 years is 800,000 - 200,000 - 150,000 - 112,500 = 337500.
In the year of sale we subtract the scrap proceeds (of 30,000) and the balance of 337500 - 30000 = 307500 is the balancing allowance.
(the 492500 is not really at all relevant :-) )
Thank you so much! I understand your explanation better.
