Kindly Help me ...

Depreciation on Firniture & fixture is 10% if the assets is more than 180 days old then depreciation allowable 100% and Less then 180days 50% allowable only.


My Query is that .... if a firm bought assets (Furniture) in the month of July for Rs. 50000/-  and again added in the month of November furniture fof Rs. 25000/-..

Do i have to go by the date of purchase while calculation like 50000 x 10% = 5000/- and 25000 x 10% /2 = 1250/- = Total 6250/-

or on total asses by last date of purchase i.e 75000 x 10%/2 = 3750/-

Kindly pls clarify...
