Respuesta :

Answer: The machine cost 64,500 and has accumulated depreciation of 36,120 so the book value of the machine is (64,500-36,120)=28380

The book value of the machine is 28380 so if the machine is sold for 32,250 then the gain on sale is (32,250-28380)= 3,870

                                                Debit                             Credit

Cash                                          32,250

Machine                                                                         28,380

Gain on sale                                                                    3,870

If the machine is sold for 19,350 then there will be a loss on the sale of the machine and the loss will be debited. (28380-19350)=9,030

                                                Debit                             Credit

Cash                                         19,350

Loss on sale                               9,030

Machine                                                                          28,380
