1a) Journal Entry

General Journal Debit Credit
Cash $22000
Accumulated Depreciation $16000
Loss on Sale of Equipment $12000
            Equipment $50,000

Given that the Balance of Equipment on 12/31/2018 is $50,000 Accumulated Depreciation = $16000

Book Value of Asset = $50,000 - $16,000

Book Value of Equipment = $34,000

Equipment is Sold for $22,000

Loss on Sale of equipment = $34,000 - $22,000 = $12,000

1b) Journal Entry

General Journal Debit Credit
Note Receivable $48,000
Accumulated Depreciation $16000
           Gain on Sale of Equipment $14000
            Equipment $50,000

Given that the Balance of Equipment on 12/31/2018 is $50,000 Accumulated Depreciation = $16000

Book Value of Asset = $50,000 - $16,000

Book Value of Equipment = $34,000

Equipment is Sold for $48,000

Gain on Sale of Equipment = $48,000 - $34,000 = $14,000

1c) Journal Entry

General Journal Debit Credit
Accumulated Depreciation $16000
Loss on disposal of Equipment $34000
          Equipment $50,000

Note : Book Value of asset on 01/01/19 is $34,000 and nothing can be realised from the equipment as it is thrown away so the amount is transferred to loss on disposal acccount.
