Gain of $600,000

Explanation: As we know that :-

Gain / loss = Sales value - Cost of building

Now, we can compute cost of building on date of sale as follows :-

cost = purchase date cost - accumulated depreciation

        = $850,000 - $ 200,000

        = $650,000

putting the values into initial equation we get :-

Gain = $1,250,000 - $650,000

        = $600,000
