Explanation:
The computation of gain on sales is given below:-
Depreciation per year = $40,000 - $10,000 ÷ 10
= $3,000
Life of equipment = 5.5 years
Accumulated Depreciation on equipment = 5.5 × $3,000
= $16,500
Book value of equipment = $40,000 - $16,500
= $23,500
Gain = Proceed from sale - Book value at the time of sale
= $24,500 - $23,500
= $1,000
