    Answer: The machine cost 64,500 and has accumulated depreciation of 36,120 so the book value of the machine is (64,500-36,120) = 28380

    The book value of the machine is 28380 so if the machine is sold for 32,250 then the gain on sale is (32,250-28380) = 3,870

    Debit Credit

    Cash 32,250

    Machine 28,380

    Gain on sale 3,870

    If the machine is sold for 19,350 then there will be a loss on the sale of the machine and the loss will be debited. (28380-19350) = 9,030

    Debit Credit

    Cash 19,350

    Loss on sale 9,030

    Machine 28,380
