    Accounting- Investing Activities - Where did these numbers come from?
    plant and equipment, net 2013 = 106,000 2012 = 69,000

    Other information:
    Plant assets with a book valur of £10,000 and original cost of £20,000 were sold for their book value

    the answer is:

    sale of plant assets : 10,000
    purchase of plant and equipment (75,000)


    Now I'm confused where -75,000 is coming from?
    I keep getting -37,000

    What am I doing wrong?


    If needed:
    not payable(due in 10 years) 2013= 20,000 1012 = 20,000
    depreciation expense = 28,000 (ive already put this on my operating cashflow)

    thanks very much!

    Answer:

    Book Value : +10
    Sold Price : -10
    Difference between plant 2012/2013 : -37
    Apply depreciation on these items which is money out : -28

    +10
    -75
