Note 1
Depreciation on Asset sold = 6 Months depreciation in 2013(July to Dec.) + 4 Years Depreciation from 2014 to 2017 + 2 Months depreciation in 2018(Jan & Feb.)
= (36,000 * 6/12 months) + (36,000 * 4 Years) + (36,000 * 2/12 Months)
Depreciation on Asset sold = 168,000
Note 2
Loss on Sale =Sale amount – (Cost – Accumulated Depreciation)
= 143,000 – (314,000 – 168,000)
Loss = 3,000
Note 3
Gain on Sale =Sale amount – (Cost – Accumulated Depreciation)
= 166,000 – (314,000 – 168,000)
Gain = 20,000
