Expert Solution

Cost of store equipment = $625

Salvage value = $75

Useful life = 10 year

Annual depreciation = (Cost price - Salvage value)/Useful life

(675 - 75)/10

= 600/10

$60

Depreciation on equipment from January 1 to April 1 of the current year = 60 x 3/12

= $15

Accumulated depreciation on equipment till the date of sale = 480 + 15

= $495

Book value of equipment = Cost price - accumulated depreciation

= 675 - 495

= $180

Loss on equipment disposed = Book value of equipment

= $180
