Kasper Film Co. is selling off some old equipment it no longer needs because its associated project has come to an end. The equipment originally cost $18,750, of which 75% has been depreciated. The firm can sell the used equipment today for $6,000, and its tax rate is 40%. 

What is the equipment's after-tax salvage value for use in a capital budgeting analysis? Note that if the equipment's final market value is less than its book value, the firm will receive a tax credit as a result of the sale.
