Respuesta :

Answer:

$4,000 gain

Explanation:

The calculation of gain or loss on the sale of the equipment is shown below:-

Gain or loss on the sale of the equipment = Sales - Cost of the baking equipment - Accumulated Depreciation

= $25,000 - ($72,000 - $51,000)

= $25,000 - $21,000

= $4,000

Therefore for computing the gain or sale we simply applied the above formula.
