Step-by-step solution

6 steps

Okay, I can help you with that! Here is the information from before, written in a way that's easier to understand, like for a grade 3 student.

  1. What to do with the money for things getting old.

    When things get old, we call it 'depreciation'. At the end of the year, we need to clean up our money lists. We move the money from the 'Depreciation Account' to a special list called the 'Profit and Loss Account'.

  2. Keeping track of the Nissan car.

    This is a list that shows how much the Nissan car cost, how much it got older (depreciation), and how much it is worth now (book value).

  3. The big list of how much all cars got older.

    This is a special list that keeps track of all the money our cars have gotten older by.

    2026 Mar 1Balance b/d2026 Mar 1Balance b/d82 600
  4. How much are all the cars worth now?

    To find out how much all our cars are worth now, we take how much they cost when new and subtract how much they got older.
    All cars cost: R448 000.
    All cars got older by: R82 600.
    So, they are worth: R448 000−R82 600=R365 400R448\,000 - R82\,600 = R365\,400.

    5.4
    The cars are worth R365 400\boxed{\text{R365 400}} now.

  5. Why pay for how far you drive?

    5.5.1
    It's fair because people pay for how much they use the car. If you drive a lot, you pay more. If you drive a little, you pay less. This makes it fair for everyone.

  6. How to know if people are telling the truth about driving.

    5.5.2
    Mandla can make sure people are honest by checking the odometer (the number that shows how far the car has driven). Or he can put a GPS tracker in the car, which is like a little helper that tells him where the car goes and how far.
