The taxes due on sale or capital gain tax is $23,454.55.

Data and Calculations:

Cost of apartment complex = $1 million

Loan amount = $700,000

Interest rate = 7%

Annual interest expense = $49,000 ($700,000 x 7%)

Loan payment period = 25 years

Depreciable basis at purchase = $750,000

Depreciation period = 27.5 years

The Depreciation expense per year based on the straight-line method = $27,272.73 ($750,000/27.5)

The accumulated depreciation after 5 years = $136,363.65 ($27,272.73 x 5).

The book value of apartment after 5 years = $863,636.35 ($1,000,000 - $136,363.65).

Sales proceeds = $1,270,000

Gain on sale of apartment = $406,363.65 ($1,270,000 - $863,636.35)

Capital gain after deductible, assuming you lived in the apartment alone = $156,363.65 ($406,363.65 - $250,000)

Capital gain tax = $23,454.55 ($156,363.65 x 15%)

Thus, the taxes due on sale or capital gain tax is $23,454.55.
