Explanation / Answer

Accumulated depreciation = 204000*(0.2+0.32) = 106,080

Book Value = 204,000 -106,080 = 97,920

a. Asset is sold for 224,400

Taxable value = 224,400 -97,920 = 126,480

Total Tax= 0.4*126,480 = $50,592

b. The asset is sold for 153,000

Taxable Value = 153,000 -97,920 = 55,080

Total Tax = 55,080*0.4 = $22,032

c. The asset is sold for 97,920

Since the book value and sale value are equal, Total tax = 0

d. Asset is sold for 78,300

taxable value = 78,300 -97,920 = -19,620

Total tax = -19,620*0.4 = -$7,848 (Negative sign indicates an actual tax savings)
