Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Net sales:

= Selling price - Selling cost

= $5,100,000 - (0.03 × $5,100,000)

= $5,100,000 - $153,000

= $4,947,000

Gain on sale:

= Net sales - (Cost - Depreciation)

= $4,947,000 - [$4,820,000 - (5 × $153,016)]

=  $4,947,000 - ($4,820,000 - $765,080)

= $4,947,000 - $4,054,920

= $892,080

Tax on capital gain:

= Tax rate × Gain on sale

= 0.28 × $892,080

= $249,782.40

After-tax cash flow from sale of the property:

= Net sales - Tax on capital gain - Mortgage balance

= $4,947,000 - $249,782.40 - $3,600,000

= $1,097,218

The after-tax amount of cash from the sale of the property is $1,097,218. Therefore, option D is correct.

The after-tax cash flow is the final inflow of cash in the hands of the owner after considering all the costs and other expenses.

Computation:

Given,

Selling price of the property $5,100,000

Mortgage balance $3,600,000

Percentage on selling price 3%

Purchase price 5 years ago  $4,820,000

Annual depreciation allowances $153,016

Tax rate 28%
