Answer:

D. A credit to Other Financing Sources for $5,000.

Explanation:

As the equipment is used for governmental service and sold, the journal entry to record the disposal is as follows:

Debit    Cash                                                 $15,000

Debit    Accumulated Depreciation             $30,000

Credit                 Equipment                                      $40,000

Credit                 Gain on sale of equipment            $5,000

Calculation: Book value of equipment = Cost price - Accumulated depreciation = $40,000 - $30,000 = $10,000

Therefore, Gain on sale of equipment = Disposal value - Book value = $15,000 - $10,000 = $5,000.

Therefore, option A is correct. Option B is also correct. Option C is also correct. Therefore, option D is not correct and it is the answer as it will not include in the journal.
