Step-1:Calculation of straight line depreciation

Straight line depreciation			=	(Cost - Salvage value)/Useful life
			=	(655000-0)/8
			=	$ 81,875

Step-2:Calculation of book value at the end of year 6

Cost				$ 6,55,000
Less accumulated depreciation for 6 years	$ 81,875	*6	=	$ 4,91,250

Book value at the end of year 6				$ 1,63,750

Step-3:Calculation of after tax cash flow from the sale of this asset

Sales value			a	$ 1,29,000
Book value of asset			b	$ 1,63,750
Profit on sale			c=a-b	$ -34,750
Tax on profit			d=c*24%	$ -8,340
After tax cash flow from asset			e=a-d	$ 1,37,340
