A. A Machine that originally cost $25,000 and was depreciated on a straight-line basis has one year of its expected 5-year life remaining. Assume a salvage value of $0. Its current market value is $12,000. The corporate average tax rate is 30% while the marginal tax rate is 34%. The gain or loss on selling the machine is _______. The cash flow from disposing the old machine is ________
ANSWER:-
Given values
Cost = $25,000
Life year = 5
Depreciation using SLN = Cost/Life
= 25000/5
= 5000 pa
So In 4 yes, Accumulated Depreciation = 4*5000
= 20,000
So Book Value = 25000-20000
= 5000
Current Market Value =12000
Gain on selling the machine =12000-5000
=$7000
Now CF from Disposing Old Mach = Market Value - Tax*(Market Value-Book Value)
=12000 - 30%*(12000-5000)
=12000-30% * (7000)
=12000-2100
=9900
= $9,900
