    Can anybody solve the below question and fully explain all procedures that lead to the final answer.

    The plant and machinery account (at cost) of a business for the year ended 31 December 2008 was as follows:

    Plant and machinery -Cost
    ]
    2008 $ 2008 $
    1 Jan Balance 240000 31 March Transfer disposal
    account 60000
    30 June Cash – Purchase
    of plant 160000 31 Dec Balance 340,000
    400000 400000

    The company’s policy is to charge depreciation at 20% per year on the straight line basis ,
    with proportionate depreciation in the years of purchase and disposal

    What should be the depreciation charge for the year ended 31 December 2008?
