Answer:

loss on disposal =$152,200

Explanation:

The gains on disposal is the the difference between the net sales proceeds on disposal and the carrying value of the assets as the date of disposal.

The carrying value = Cost  of the assets - accumulated depreciation to date

Carrying value = $1,496,000- $1,287,00

                       =209,000

Loss on disposal = $56,800 - $ 209,000 = -152,200
