12.19 Exactly 10 years ago, Boyditch Professional Asso- ciates purchased $100,000 in depreciable assets with an estimated salvage of $10,000. For tax de- preciation the SL method with n = 10 years was used, but for book depreciation, Boyditch applied the DDB method with n = 7 years and neglected the salvage estimate. The company sold the assets today for $12,500. a. Compare this sales amount with the book val- ues using SL and DDB methods. b. If a salvage of $12,500 had been estimated ex- actly 10 years ago, determine the depreciation for each method in year 10.

d. The depreciation deduction for year 11 of an asset with a 20-year useful life is $3,600. If the salvage value of the asset was estimated to be zero and straight line depreciation was used to calculate the depreciation deduction for year 11, the initial cost of this asset is most closely equal to which of the following values? (a) $42,000 (b) $67,750 $72,500 (d) $80,000 e. Consider the following data extracted from an After Tax Cash Flow calculation. Before Tax Cash Flow = $22,500 Loan Principal Payment = $7,434 Loan Interest Payment = $892 MACRS Depreciation Deduction = $7,405 Taxes Due = $5,397 Which of the following is closest to the After Tax Cash Flow? (a) $1,372 $8,777 (c) $8,806 (d) $16,211
