    (d). 151,806 at 25% and $113,470 at 15%

    Explanation:

    Book Value of apartment building = Cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation claimed till date by the assessee

    Cost Of Acquisition $600,000

    Less: Depreciation till date ($151,806)

    Book Value in 2019 448,194

    Calculation of Long Term Capital Gain:

    Sales Consideration $713,470

    Less: Book value on date of sale ($448,194)

    Long Term Capital Gain $265,276

    The break up of above long term capital gain taxation would be as follows

    $113470 at 15%

    $ 151806 at 25%
