During the current year, Vann County’s motor pool internal service fund sold two vehicles for $5,000. The vehicles had a cost of $6,000 and a carrying value of $4,000. How should Vann County’s motor pool internal service fund report this transaction in its fund financial statements?

Gain of $1000

Explanation:

Looking at the question, it is evident that the company is using the accrual basis of accounting, hence the reporting should be done simply  by showing a revenue of $5000(Proceeds) minus the carrying value given i.e. $4000.

Hence a gain of $1000.

Hope this helps you. Good Luck.
