Answer: $618,096

Explanation:

Accumulated depreciation after 5 years = 20% + 32% + 19.2% + 11.52

= 82.72%

Value after 4 years = 3,300,000 * ( 1 - 82.72%)

= $570,240

Gain on sale = Salvage value - Net book value

= 650,000 - 570,240

= $79,760

Aftertax salvage value = 650,000 - (Gain on sale * tax)

= 650,000 - (79,760 * 40%)

= $618,096
