Answer

Machine cost = $150,000

Accumulated depreciation = $105,000

Selling price = $60,000

Therefore

The current value of machine

= machine cost - accumulated depreciation

= 150,000 - 105,000 = $45,000

The current value of machine is $45,000 and the selling price is $60,000.

Selling price is greater than current value, it means the machine is sold on a profit (gain).

Gain on sale of machine = 60,000 - 45,000 = $15,000

* gain on sale of machine is $15,000

* proceeds from sales of machine is $60,000

The gain on sale of machine is $15,000 , it is recorded in the operating activities section of the cash flow statement as a negative figure.

Proceed from sale of machine $60,000, it is recorded in the investing section of the cashflow as a positive figure.

The above calculations clearly indicate that $60,000 is recorded in the cash flow statement as a positive figure.

Option $60,000 is CORRECT.
