You purchased a machine for $ 1.08 million three years ago and have been applying straight-line depreciation to zero for a seven-year life. Your tax rate is 40 %. If you sell the machine today (after three years of depreciation) for $780,000, what is your incremental cash flow from selling the machine?
Your total incremental cash flow will be (...) (Round to the nearest cent.)
Cost of Machine = $1,080,000
Book value of depreciation after 3 years = $1,080,000 - ( $1,080,000 *3 yrs/ 7yrs)
Book value of depreciation after 3 years = $1,080,000 - $462,857.14
Book value of depreciation after 3 years = $617,142.86
Sale value = $780,000
Gain on sale of machine = $780,000 - $617,142.86
Gain on sale of machine = $162,857.14
Tax on gain = $162,857.14 * 40%
Tax on gain = $65,142.86
Net Incremental cash flow = $162,857.14 - $65,142.86
Total Incremental cash flow = $97,714.29
