ascruggs92 Tricky only because I thought this referred to Abandonment, in which case there could only be a potential loss (if salvage value is greater than zero) and there would be no proceeds from the sale

I was very pleased with your notes and question bank. I especially like the mock exams because it helped to pull everything together.
