Expert Solution

Profit made on the disposal of the machine = $2,500 -->Refer working note

.

.

Journal Entry:
Date Account Titles and Description Debit Credit
Dec.31, 2019 Cash $90,000
Accumulated depreciation          [Refer working note - Marked in green colour] $62,500
   Machinery $150,000
   Gain on disposal of asset         [Refer working note - Marked in green colour] $2,500
To record sale of asset

.

.

Working note:

Annual depreciation = (Cost – Salvage value) / Life of the asset

                                   = ($150,000 – $25,000) / 10

                                   = $12,500

.

The machine has been used for 5 years (from January 01, 2015 to December 31, 2019)

So,

Accumulated depreciation as on December 31, 2019 = $12,500 x 5 years = $62,500

.

Book value as on December 31, 2019 = Cost – Accumulated depreciation

                                                             = $150,000 – $62,500

                                                              = $87,500

.

Sale value of the asset   = $90,000

.

Since the sale value is higher than the book value, the sale transaction resulted in a profit.

Therefore, Profit on disposal of the asset = Sale value – Book value

                                                                  = $90,000 – $87,500

                                                                    = $2,500
