Respuesta :

Answer:

$50,000

Explanation:

Sale of the home = $48,500

Given that this amount reflected a depreciation amount of 3%.

Let the original asking price be x

Therefore

x - 3%x = $48500

x - 0.03x = $48500

0.97x = $48500

x = $48500/0.97

x = $50,000

Th original asking price for the home was $50,000.
