Answer #1

In case of assets acquisition the cost of assets is to be considered the cost incurred till the asset is put to use.

Since the company has purchased the asset and paid sales tax and Installation/delivery charge it will be added to the cost of Assets i.e till the asset is put and ready for use.

Hence the cost of Acquisition of Warehouse Equipment is:

Purchase Cost $75,000
Add: Sales Tax $5,000
Add: Installation/Delivery Charges $20,000
Total Cost of Acquisition of Assets $1,00,000

The assets is being used and hence depreciation is charged.

Further the asset is sold on 7/31/2020 at the value of $65000. The profit and loss on sale of Asset is shown as follows in the tabulated form:   

Date Particulars Amount
01-01-18 Cost of Acquisition $1,00,000
Less: 7/31/20 Depreciation ($20,000)
Less: 7/31/20 Deduction u/s 179 ($5,000)
7/31/20 Value as on date $75,000
Less: 7/31/20 Sale value of Equipment $65,000
7/31/20 Loss on sale of Equipment ($10,000)

So, the option C is correct the Loss on sale of Assets is ( $10000).
