    Answer:The gain is $5,700

    Explanation:

    Cost - Salvage value / useful life

    Cost=$58,000 Salvage value = $5,000 Useful life = 10 years

    58,000 - 5,000/10 = 5,300

    The yearly depreciation = $5,300

    $

    1st year cost. 53,0000

    Depreciation. (5,300)

    2nd year cost. 47,700

    Depreciation. (5,300)

    3rd year cost. 41,700

    Depreciation. (5,300)

    4th year cost. 36,400

    Depreciation. (5,300)

    Total. 31,100

    The net book value of the machine after 4 years = $ 31,100

    To calculate the Accumulated Depreciation

    = Yearly depreciation x Years the machine is sold

    = Yearly depreciation = $5,300. Years the machine was sold = 4

    5,300 * 4 = 21,200

    Accumulated depreciation = $21,200

    To calculate the cost of selling the machine

    Initial cost - Accumulated depreciation

    Initial cost = $58,000 Accumulated depreciation = $21,200

    58,000 - 21,200 = 36,800

    The machine will be sold for $36,800zAccounting entry will be
