Correct Answer: INR 4,28,400
Solution : After the first year, the value of the car depreciates by 20%. The value of the car after the first year = 7,00,000 × (1 – 0.20) = INR 5,60,000. After the second year, the value of the car depreciates by 15%. The value of the car after the second year = 5,60,000 × (1 – 0.15) = INR 4,76,000. After the third year, the value of the car depreciates by 10%. The value of the car after the third year = 4,76,000 × (1 – 0.10) = INR 4,28,400. Hence, the correct answer is INR 4,28,400.
