Explanation:

equipment cost = beginning equipment - ending equipment = $20,000 - $10,200 = $9,800

equipment's accumulated depreciation = beginning accumulated depreciation + depreciation expense - ending depreciation = $1,950 + $860 - $1,790 = $1,020

book value = $9,800 - $1,020 = $8,780

cash received = book value - loss = $8,780 - $2,800 = $5,980
