As asset used in a four-year project falls in the five-year macrs class for tax purposes. the asset has an acquisition cost of $6,400,000 and will be sold for $1,530,000 at the end of the project. if the tax rate is 34 percent, what is the after tax salvage value of the asset?

The after tax salvage value of the asset is $165.000.

Explanation:

If the asset has a depreciation period of 5 years it means that still there is a depreciation´s remanent of $ 1.280.000, if the asset it's sold at $1.530.000 at the end of the project, then the salvage value before taxes it's $250.000 consequently the after tax salvage value of the asset it's $ 165.000.

When company's asset it's for sale if there is yet a remanent value of depreciation it's the cost of sale of the transaction, if the depreciation it's zero then the sale it's a all gain to the company.
