Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
Since the expenses are related to the formation of the business, we first capitalize these expenses and record them in our balance sheet as,
Debit Intangible Assets (Formation) by $48,500
Credit Cash/Bank by $48,500
This records an asset for the year of operation.
We amortize or depreciate these type of capitalized costs over a defined period of time. Assuming that we write off the entire cost by the end of first year we will record amortization as,
Debit Amortization expense/Income statement by $48,500
Credit Intangible Assets (Formation) by $48,500
Hope that helps.

Answer:
d) $677,532.
Explanation:
1.
Written down value of the equipment after 4 years = Cost x ( 100% - 1st year MACRS - Second-year MACRS - Third-year MACRS - Fourth-year MACRS ) = $3,500,000 x ( 100% - 20% - 32% - 19.20% - 11.52% ) = $604,800
2.
Now calculate the gain on the sale of equipment
Gain on the sale of equipment = Sale Price - Written down Value after 4 years = $715,000 - $604,800 = $110,200
3.
Tax owed = Gain on the sale x Tax rate = $110,200 x 34% = $37,468
After-tax salvage value = Sales price - Tax = $715,000 - $37,468 = $677,532
