Explanation:

Wall corporation exchanges equipment. Therefore, 1 equipment purchases and another one sells. So, a debit entry and a credit entry for equipment will be needed to record the transaction. Exchanging helps to gain on equipment. The gain amounted to =

Old equipment,

Cost price =                                 $100,000

(-) Accumulated depreciation = $ 60,000  

Book value before exchanging = $40,000

As the company received a new one by exchanging the old equipment,

The gain on equipment -

New equipment =           $80,000

Book value of old one = $40,000

Gain                              =  $40,000

As the company exchanged old equipment, the depreciation related to that old one became a debit entry.

Therefore, the following entry to be recorded -

Debit      Equipment                           $80,000

Debit      accumulated depreciation $60,000

Credit                        Equipment                        $100,000

Credit                        Gain on exchange of asset  40,000
