If you are still confused, calculate the loss on sale by eliminating the provision part (all 200000,320000,24000), then you can make out the difference

In question number 5, they have included only depreciation pertaining to sale. Why they have not included it in opening and closing balance
The solution given in study material can be confusing. Follow the below steps 1. Transfer the cost of fixed asset sold to a separate account called "Fixed Asset-Disposal" Account Dr. FA Disposal A/c Cr. Fixed Asset Account 2. Transfer depreciation pertaining to fixed asset sold to FA disposal account Dr. Provision for Depreciation Cr. FA Disposal Account 3. Amount realised on sale Dr. Bank Cr. FA Disposal Account 4. Balancing figure will be gain or loss.
