sale price and sales expense for worn out washer/dryer in rental property

[nangua825]

when we bought rental in 2017, we put in second handed washer/dryer in the property. last year the washer broken down so we bought new ones from homedepot.  homedepot agreed to haul away the old appliances away for $50 total. on the 'asset sale information' page should I put $0 as sale price and $50 as the sale expense for the old washer/dryer ?

Yes to the zero sales price. No, to the expense of sale. Just include it as a maintenance expense on Schedule E.
