An asset with a first cost of 50 000 and no salvage has capital recovery at 10 per cent over 2 years of about

  • A.20 095
  • B.28 810
  • C.25 000
  • D.16 380

Answer: B

Correct answer: 28 810

\[ A = 50{,}000 \times (A/P, 10\%, 2) = 50{,}000 \times 0.5762 = 28{,}810. \] Spreading the cost over only two years leaves each year carrying more than half the purchase price, which is why capital recovery dominates the total annual cost of a young asset.
