Accumulated Depreciation

Particulars Amount Particulars Amount
Opening 100,000 Closing 120,000
To Equipment 30,000 By Equipment (Bal fig, dep) 10,000
       
  130,000   130,000

2) Equipment A/c

Particulars Amount Particulars Amount
Opening 310,000 Closing 320,000
    By Sales 3,000
    By Accum Dep 30,000
Purchase (Bal fig) 45,000 By Loss 2,000
