$940,000

A fire completely destroys the machine on August 31, 2015. An insurance settlement of $430,000 was received for this casualty. Assume the settlement was received immediately.

On April 1, 2015, Tritt sold the machine for $1,040,000 to Dwight Yoakam Company.

On July 31, 2015, the company donated this machine to the Mountain King City Council. The fair value of the machine at the time of the donation was estimated to be $1,100,000.

On December 31, 2014, Travis Tritt Inc. has a machine with a book value of $940,000. The original cost and related accumulated depreciation at this date are as follows.
Machine
