Answer:

The aftertax cash flow from the sale is $ 19,976.

Explanation:

In the case given in the problem cash flow comprises of two things one is cash from sale and the second is cash payment or saving as result of this sale.

In order to calculate tax saving/payment we first have to calculate tax base of the asset in order to determing profit/loss on disposal.

Profit/loss on disposal Calculation

Profit/(Loss) = Sale Price - Tax base = 25,000 - 73,000 (100-MACRS(86.61)%)

Profit/(Loss) =  15,225.3

As profit so Tax outflow = 15,225.3 * 33% = $ 5,024

SO

After Tax Cash flow from sale = 25,000 - 5,024 = $ 19,976
