    Loss on sale of delivery equipment = $3,700

    Explanation:

    The following journal entry to record the exchange for Sheridan's Delivery Company.

    Delivery equipment debit (fair value) $2,800

    Loss on sale of delivery equipment debit $37,00 (Note - 1)

    Accumulated depreciation debit $15,000

    Delivery equipment (original cost) credit $21,500

    Note: Calculation: Loss on sale of delivery equipment = cost price of delivery equipment - accumulated depreciation - disposal of delivery equipment.

    Loss on sale of delivery equipment = $21,500 - $15,000 - $2,800.

    Loss on sale of delivery equipment = $21,500 - $17,800

    Loss on sale of delivery equipment = $3,700
