Answer:

The acquired cost of the equipment on July 1 is $85,132

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the acquired cost is shown below:

= Cash + Net note payable amount

= $10,000 + $75,132

= $85,132

where,

Notes payable amount equals to

= Non-interest-bearing note payable - discounts on notes payable

= $100,000 - $24,868

= $75,132

For computing the accurate answer we have to deduct the discount from the note payable amount and then added to thee cash amount
