Answer 1

option (D) $138,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Purchasing cost of the machine = $126,000

Additional costs for this machine :

Shipping = $3,000

Installation = $4,000

Testing = $5,000

Now,

The cost of machine that should be reported

= Purchasing cost + Additional costs incurred

= $126,000 + $3,000 + $4,000 + $5,000

= $138,000

Hence,

The correct answer is option (D) $138,000
