The Bug House purchased some new machinery last year at a total cost of $18,500. The depreciation to date on this machinery is $3,400. Should the firm opt to sell the machinery today, it could probably do so at a price of $14,150. What is the current book value of this machinery

Answer:

No, 15,100

Step-by-step explanation:

The book value is 15,100 (18500-3400) which is more than the potential sales price of 14,150.

I wouldn’t sell the equipment since it is worth more (15,100) than potential sales price.
