Autos › Re: Probable Rate Of Depreciation On Nigeria Used Cars by Osama10(m): 1:23pm On Nov 18, 2011 |
fizzybaba: i have been thinking for a while about the annual rate of depreciation chargeable on cars used in Nigeria.
Here is my story,
I tried to sell a 2001 Camry bought last year that clocked a year some weeks back. The price offered by prospective buyers was worrying viz a viz the purchase cost.
1.3M car now being priced for 800k after a year! Eventually sold it for 850k.
Mathematically, that is approx 35% off the purchase cost.
It is noteworthy that there was no damage of any sort apart from the bruises suffered by the bumpers(minor).
In accounting, we charge 25% as yearly depreciation. A new vehicle after four years has just been given birth to i dare say
I understand that as a car grows older, the rate may perhaps increase marginally but 35% is way too high
Buying a car is not an investment at all! Lately, i have been thinking of applying the same strategy in buying a car.
look for my choice car and buy 'a year used' model thereby making the owner suffer for the 35% depreciation rate.
Bright idea? Nice thought there. But I hope you are not thinking of Naija used. |

Did they give any reason for the new plates, thought we had more pressing problems like good roads. |
