Client had a truck that cost $30,000. We have depreciated about $10K and he went to the dealer and exchanged it for a better, brand new truck that costs $60K. 

I have the old truck listed as "used" asset with a cost $30 and now it need to became  a "New" truck with a cost of $60K minus $10K of depreciation taken. How do I do that in ATX?

New law eliminated like-kind transactions on anything other than real estate.  For cars and other tangible property traded in, you would report this as a sale using the trade-in allowance as the sale proceeds.  Record the new asset as a purchase separate from the trade-in.
