Answer:

a. Cost of Equipment = $401300

Residual value = $25100

Useful life = 18 years

Depreciation expense = (Purchase cost - Residual value) / Useful life

Depreciation expense = ($401,300 - $25,100) / 18 years

Depreciation expense = $20,900

b. Book value of equipment on January 1 of year 4 = Purchase cost -(Depreciation expense * 3 years)

= $401300 - ($20900*3 years)

= $401300 - $62700

= $338,600

c. Accumulated Depreciation = Depreciation expense * 3 years

Accumulated Depreciation = $20,900*3

Accumulated Depreciation = $62,700

Gain/ loss on sale = Cash received for sale of asset - Book value of asset at jan 1 of year 4

Loss on sale = $315000 - $338600

Loss on sale = $23600
