What is the expected after-tax cash flow from selling a piece of equipment if Probst purchases the equipment today for $542,980.00, the tax rate is 34.3 percent, the equipment will be sold in 3 years for $103,000.00, and the equipment will be depreciated to $60,600.00 over 12 years using straight-line depreciation? $212,549.05 (plus or minus $10) $240,125.11 (plus or minus $10) $109,035.08 (plus or minus $10) -$41,878.05 (plus or minus $10) None of the above is within $10 of the correct answer

Freeman Engineering paid $40,000 for specialized equipment for use with their new global positioning system/geographic information system (GPS/GIS). The equipment was depreciated over a 3-year recovery period using Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) depreciation. The company sold the equipment after 2 years for $8,000 when it purchased an upgraded system. Determine the amount of the depreciation recapture or capital loss involved in selling the asset.   The amount of capital loss is determined to be $____
