End of Chapter Key Concept 10-1 - PowerBuilt Construction is considering whether to replace an existing bulldozer with a new model. If the new bulldozer is purchased, the existing bulldozer will be sold to another company for a certain percentage.
10-1
Selling price = $85,000
Book value = $100,000
Gain on sale of bulldozer = $85,000 - $100,000 = -$15,000
Tax on sale of bulldozer = -$15,000 * 0.35 = -$5,250 (effectively a tax refund)
After-tax cash flow from sale = $85,000 + $5,250 = $90,250
