Answer #1

correct option is "B"- 57772

Depreciation expense per year =Cost / useful life

                         = 228800 /16

                        = $ 14300 per year

Total accumulated depreciation over 8 years= 8* 14300 = 114400

Book value at end of year 8 =Cost -accumulated depreciation

                     = 228800-114400

                     = 114400

Gain /(loss)) on sale =sale value - book value

                       = 28600 --114400

                        = -85800 loss

Tax saving due to loss= -85800 *34%= -29172

After tax cash flow from sale of asset = Sale value - tax expense(saving)

                                  = 28600 - (-29172)

                                  = 28600+29172

                                    = 57772
