Answer:

to determine the after tax salvage value I assumed a 21% corporate tax rate (no tax rate was given in the question):

after tax salvage value = salvage value - [(book value - market value) x tax rate] = -$2,412 - [($24,120 - $26,532) x 21%] = -$2,412 - (-$506.52) = $1,905.48

Explanation:

original purchase cost $55,275

depreciation year 1 = $55,275 x 0.2 = $11,055, book value $44,220

depreciation year 2 = $55,275 x 0.32 = $17,688, book value $26,532

equipment is sold at $24,120 resulting  in a net loss = $24,120 - $26,532 = -$2,412
