book value  45,000 - 23,700 - 1,800 = 19,500

sale price = 16,000  loss of 3,500

cash                             16,000  debit +assets

acc depreciation        23,700 debit +asset

depreciation expense  1,800 debit -net income

loss on disposal           3,500 debit -net income

equipment                                   45,000 credit -assets

Explanation:

We follow the accounting principles:

debit = credit

asset + expense = liabilities + equity + expenses

DEBIT //  CREDIT           DEBIT //  CREDIT

----------------------          ---------------------------------

+++++   //  --------             ------- ///    +++++++

Left side increase fro mdebit and decrease from credit

right side increase through credit decrease with debit.
