Cryptarithmetic

This  is a type of mathematical game consisting of a mathematical equation among unknown numbers, whose digits are represented by letters. The goal is to identify the value of each letter. Lets try this game with the popular one.

\begin{matrix}
     &   & \text{S} & \text{E} & \text{N} & \text{D} \\
   + &   & \text{M} & \text{O} & \text{R} & \text{E} \\
 \hline
   = & \text{M} & \text{O} & \text{N} & \text{E} & \text{Y} \\
\end{matrix}

You have to find the value of each letter involved in above equation.( S, E, N, D, M, O, R, Y ).

Remember the rules :
a) Different letters have different value.
b) Same letters must have same value (i.e. M in MORE and M in MONEY has same value)
c) The range of value is 0-9.

Refer to comment section if you want to tally your answer.
