Answer:

a. Cash                                            37000 Dr

   Accumulated depreciation       21200 Dr

              Machine                                58000 Cr

              Gain on disposal                  200 Cr

b.   Cash                                            36800 Dr

     Accumulated depreciation       21200 Dr

              Machine                                   58000 Cr

c.   Cash                                            28000 Dr

     Accumulated depreciation       21200 Dr

     Loss on disposal                        8800 Dr

              Machine                                    58000 Cr

Explanation:

The depreciation expense per year under straight line is:

Depreciation per year = (58000 - 5000) / 10 = 5300

For four years, accumulated depreciation is 5300 * 4 = 21200

The carrying value is 58000 - 21200 = 36800

The gain/loss on disposal is cash received - carrying value.

a. The gain/loss on disposal = 37000 - 36800 = 200 gain

b. The gain/loss on disposal = 36800 - 36800 = 0

c. The gain/loss on disposal = 28000 - 36800 = -8800 loss

The journal entries for recording the sale of each machines under various scenarios should be explained below.

a. Cash                                     Dr. 37,000  

       Accum. Dep. - Equip.             Dr.   21,200  

                                  To Plant Assets           58,000

                       To Gain on Sale of Plant Assets                 200

(Record sale of Machine)  

b. Cash                                               Dr. 36,800  

Accum. Dep. - Equip.                       Dr. 21,200  

                                         To Plant Assets           58,000

(Record sale of Machine)  

c. Cash                                               Dr. 28,000  

Accum. Dep. - Equip.                      Dr. 21,200  

Loss on Sale of Plant Assets            8,800  

                                  To Plant Assets           58,000

(Record sale of Machine)  

Working note:

Dep. To be charged per Annum = ($58000 - $5000) / 10 Years = $5300

Book Value of Machine at the end of 4th Year = $58000 - ($5300 X 4 Years)

= $36,800
