Explanation:

An illustration is given below.  Company A received $70,000 from the sale of an Office Equipment with a tax basis of $40,000.  The capital gains tax rate is 20%.  How much would be the after-tax proceeds?  The net proceeds minus the tax basis would result in the capital gains of $30,000.  Then, the capital gains tax equals $6,000 ($30,000 * 20%).  Therefore, the after-tax proceeds would be $70,000 minus $6,000, which is equal to $64,000.
