Answer:

The correct answer is $3,535.36

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

First we calculate the book value,

So, Book value = $15,000 × ( 1 - 20% - 32% - 19.2% - 11.52%)

= $2,592

So, we can calculate the Cash flow from disposal by using following formula:

Cash flow from disposal = Sale proceeds - ( Gain on sales × Tax rate)

Where, Gain on sales = ($4,000 - $2,592 ) = $1,408

By putting the value, we get

= $4,000 - ( $1,408 × 33% )

=$3,535.36
