vlabodo [156]

Answer:

$10,620

Explanation:

Depreciation for Year 1 = 0.202 × $50,000

                                       = $10,100

Depreciation for Year 2 = 0.323 × $50,000

                                       = $16,150

Depreciation for Year 3 = 0.194 × $50,000

                                       = $9,700

Depreciation for Year 4 = 0.125 × $50,000

                                       = $6,250

Accumulated depreciation = $10,100 + $16,150 + $9,700 + $6,250

                                             = $42,200

Book value of machine as on date of sale:

= Purchase price - Accumulated depreciation

= $50,000 - $42,200

= $7,800

Selling price = $12,500

Gain on sale of machine = $12,500 - $7,800

                                         = $4,700

Tax rate = 40%

Tax on capital gain = $4,700 × 0.40

                                = $1,880

Net proceeds on sale of machine:

= Selling price – Tax paid on capital gain

= $12,500 - $1,880

= $10,620
