Answer #1

Asset Purchased for = $200,000

Current Book Value of Asset after 8 years = $120,000

Firm is selling Asset for = $165,000

Profit on Sale on Asset = Current Book Value - Selling value

= $165,000 - $120,000

= $45,000

Total tax burden on sale = Profit on Sale on Asset*Tax rate

= $45,000*40%

= $18,000

So, Total Tax Burden caused by Sale is $18,000
