Answer:

The seller's maximum gain was $34,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

After considering depreciation on the the building, it was still sold with a profit of $34,000. Also, the gain on the sale of the building is actually lesser than the amount of accumulated depreciation. Hence, the conclusion is that the seller's maximum gain was $34,000.
