This document discusses the tax consequences of selling an asset. It states that if an asset is sold at its book value, there is no gain or loss and no tax effect, with the full sale price as cash flow. If an asset is sold for more than book value, there is a gain that is taxed, reducing the after-tax cash flow. If an asset is sold at a loss, the loss can be written off on taxes to offset other gains, increasing the after-tax cash flow. It provides a formula to calculate after-tax cash flow and includes examples of assets sold at a gain and at a loss.
