Option 1: INR 22,562.50

Option 2: INR 23,842.50

Option 3: INR 21,546.50

Option 4: INR 24,800.50

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 22,562.50


Solution : Initial Price = 25,000
Depreciation per annum = 5%
Depreciation after 2 years = $5 + 5 -\frac{5×5}{100}=10-0.25=9.75$%
So, the price after 2 years
= $(100-9.75)$% of 25000
= $\frac{90.25}{100}×25000$
= INR 22562.50
Hence, the correct answer is INR 22,562.50.
