Answer:

c. $7,500 ordinary gain  

Explanation:

Depreciated value of Machine = $55,000 - $12,500  

                                                   = $ 42,500

Sale price of Machine = $ 50,000

Gain on sale of Asset = $ 50,000 - $ 42,500

                                    = $ 7,500

Therefore, The amount and character of Butte's gain or loss is $7,500 ordinary gain.
