Answer:

$54,820

Explanation:

The computation of the gain is shown below;

But before that following calculations must be done

Annual depreciation as per the straight-line method

= ($690,000 - $40,200) ÷ (10 years)

= $64,980

Now accumulated depreciation for 9 years is

= $64,980 × 9 years

= $584,820

Now the book value is

= $690,000 - $584,820

= $105,180

Now the gain is

= Sale value - book value

= $160,000 - $105,180

= $54,820
