Answer:
Sissie must report both operations separately, even though the gain in one of them does offset the loss on the other:
- selling of equipment A: reported gain (increased ordinary income) of $22,510 ($60,000 - $37,490)
- selling of equipment B: reported ordinary loss of $14,490 ($23,000 - $37,490)
The effect of both transactions is a net gain of $8,020 that will increase Sissie's ordinary income.
Explanation:
Both assets are § 1231 assets, and § 1245 allows deprecation recapture on the sale of equipment A, so the gain must be considered ordinary income. The loss on the sale of equipment B is a § 1231 loss which must be treated as an ordinary loss.

Answer:
From a buyer's perspective, a sale made on credit represents a liability. While a sale made on cash represents a decrease of current assets.
From a seller's perspective, a sale made on credit or cash increases current assets, but the possibility of a bad debt always exist, therefore, accounts receivables must be periodically adjusted due to bad debts.
If the seller or buyer uses accrual accounting system, the previous description holds, but if they use cash basis accounting, things change a lot. When use cash basis, transactions are recorded only when cash is exchanged, so accounts receivables do not actually increase assets (seller's perspective), and accounts payables do not increase liabilities (buyer's perspective).
