The alpha beta corporation disposes a capital asset with an original cost of $170,000 and accumulated depreciation of $109,000 for $50,000. alpha betas tax rate is 40%. calculate the after-tax cash inflow from the disposal of the capital asset. a. $63,000 b. $4,400 c. ($4,400) d. $54,400

Option D) $54.400

Explanation:

When  a company disposes a capital asset, the cost of the asset it's the remanent value, that is the difference between the original cost less the accumulated depreciation, in this case $170.000 minus $109.000, remanent value is $61.000.

This value it's the cost of sale and the price it's $50.000 , the result of this transaction it's a loss of ($11.000) so the after-tax cash inflow it's ($4.400).

The total Cash Inflow it's the sum of $50.000 (gained from the sale) and the save on taxes for $4.400, because of the loss I get a payback on taxes, the total is $54.400.
