1 Depreciation has not been charged on office equipment with a carrying amount of £100,000 This class of assets is depreciated at 12 per cent a year using the reducing-balance method. 2 A new machine was purchased, on credit, for £30,000 and delivered on 29 September 2022 but has not been included in the financial statements. (Ignore depreciation.)
