f. & g. Cash /Equipment +$16,000 -$19,300                                -$3,300

                         

Explanation:

b. The land was sold with a gain of $3,000 ($12,000 - 9,000)

e. The trademark's amortization expense = $6,600/40 = $165 per year.

f and g. The Accounts involved are:

1. Cash +$16,000 for the sale.

2. Equipment has a debit balance of $44,000 and a credit balance of $23,400 plus Depreciation expense of $1,300.  These give a net balance of $19,300.  The equipment was sold for $16,000, recording a loss of $3,300.

3. Loss from sale of equipment = $3,300 as determined above.
