Certainly! Here is the detailed, step-by-step solution for the Machinery Account for the years 2017 to 2019:

### Initial Purchase and Installation (January 1, 2017)
- Purchase Cost: Rs 95,000
- Installation Cost: Rs 5,000
- Total Initial Cost: Rs 100,000

### Depreciation for 2017
- Depreciation Rate: 10%
- Depreciation Expense for 2017: Rs 100,000 10% = Rs 10,000
- Carrying Amount at End of 2017: Rs 100,000 - Rs 10,000 = Rs 90,000

### Depreciation for 2018 (Before Additional Purchase)
- Depreciation Rate: 10%
- Depreciation Expense for Initial Machinery (2018): Rs 90,000 10% = Rs 9,000
- Carrying Amount of Initial Machinery (June 30, 2018): Rs 90,000 - Rs 9,000 = Rs 81,000

### Additional Machinery Purchase (June 30, 2018)
- Additional Machinery Cost: Rs 50,000
- Total Carrying Amount (Including Additional Machinery): Rs 81,000 + Rs 50,000 = Rs 131,000

### Depreciation for 2018 (After Additional Purchase)
- Depreciation Rate: 10%
- Depreciation Expense for Additional Machinery (Half Year): (Rs 50,000 10%) 0.5 = Rs 2,500
- Total Depreciation for 2018: Rs 9,000 + Rs 2,500 = Rs 11,500
- Carrying Amount at End of 2018: Rs 131,000 - Rs 11,500 = Rs 119,500

### Sale of Initial Machinery (July 1, 2019)
- Sale Proceeds of Initial Machinery: Rs 40,000
- Carrying Amount of Initial Machinery: Rs 81,000
- Adjustment for Sold Machinery: Rs 119,500 - Rs 81,000 + Rs 40,000 = Rs 78,500

### Depreciation for 2019 (Remaining Machinery)
- Depreciation Rate: 10%
- Depreciation Expense for 2019: Rs 78,500 10% = Rs 7,850
- Carrying Amount at End of 2019: Rs 78,500 - Rs 7,850 = Rs 70,650

### Machinery Account Summary (2017 - 2019)
