₹ 8,000; find its cost: (i) after one year (ii) after 2 years (i) after one year (ii) after 2 years
Ans : Present cost of scooter = Rs. 8000
The cost of scooter depreciates by 15% every year (i) Cost of scooter after one year = (100 - 15)/100 × 8000
= 85/100 × 8000
= Rs 6800 (ii) Cost of scooter after 2 years = (100 - 15)/100 × 6800
= 85/100 × 6800
= Rs. 5780 (i) Cost of scooter after one year = (100 - 15)/100 × 8000
= 85/100 × 8000
= Rs 6800 (ii) Cost of scooter after 2 years = (100 - 15)/100 × 6800
= 85/100 × 6800
= Rs. 5780
