Explanation:

The carrying value of the asset at January 1 is 126500 - 94100 = 32400

a. The asset is disposed off and no cash is received. So, there is a loss on disposal of 32400.

b. The asset is disposed off at 16200 cash. So, there is a loss on disposal of 32400 - 16200  =  $16200.

a. The asset is disposed off at 32400. So, there is no gain or loss on disposal as Cash received is equal to net carrying value.

a. The asset is disposed off at 40900 cash. So, there is a gain on disposal of 40900 - 32400  =  $8500.
