Answer:
Given that,
Cost of equipment = $411,000
Accumulated depreciation = $194,000
Dispose accumulated depreciation for cash = $173,000
The Journal entry is as follows:
Cash A/c Dr. $173,000
Accumulated depreciation A/c Dr. $194,000
Loss in Disposal A/c Dr. $44,000
To Equipment a/c $411,000
(To record the accumulated depreciation and dispose off.)
Loss in Disposal:
= Cost of equipment - Accumulated depreciation - Dispose accumulated depreciation
= $411,000 - $173,000 - $194,000
= $44,000
