    Answer and Explanation:

    The journal entry is shown below:

    Cash $15,000

    Accumulated depreciation ($45,000 - $13,500) $31,500

    To gain on sale of an equipment ($15,000 - $13,500) $1,500

    To Equipment $45,000

    (Being the disposal of an equipment is recorded)

    For recording this we debited the cash and accumulated depreciation as it increased the assets and accumulated depreciation and credited the gain and equipment as it increased the gain and decreased the assets
