The following journal entries would be recorded upon disposal of the equipment:

                                                                             Debit                       Credit

Cash                                                                   $43,000

Accumulated depreciation                               $72,000

Equipment                                                                                        $112,000

Gain on disposal of asset                                                                $3,000

Explanation: Using the straight-line method of depreciation, the following formula applies: ( Cost - Salvage value) / No of years

Depreciation = ($112,000 - $0 ) / 7 years = $16,000 yearly

What is Straight-line depreciation?

Straight line depreciation is a common method of depreciation where the value of a fixed asset is reduced over its useful life.

It's used to reduce the carrying amount of a fixed asset over its useful life. With straight line depreciation, an asset's cost is depreciated the same amount for each accounting period.

The straight line depreciation formula for an asset is as follows:

Annual Depreciation Expense =  (Cost of the Asset - Salvage Value)

                                                                Useful Life of the Asset

Annual Depreciation Expense Formula

Where:

  • Cost of the asset : is the purchase price of the asset.
  • Salvage value : is the value of the asset at the end of its useful life.
  • Useful life of asset : represents the number of periods/years in which the asset is expected to be used by the company.

Therefore, we can conclude that the correct option is B.
