Dillon Duran · Answer 1

Punch Press 12,228.97

Lather 4,076.32

Welder 2,494.71

Explanation:

We use the fair value of the acquired goods and then compare with the cost:

Punch press fair value 15,000

Lather fair value 5,000

Welder fair value 3,060

Total 23,060

All the Cost incurred to get the equipment read y for use:

17,000 purhcase + 1,800 installation: 18,800

we now cross multiply for each product:

15,000/23,060 x 18,800 = 12.228,9679

5,000/23,060 x 18,800 = 4.076,32263

3,060/23,060 x 18,800 = 2.494,7094

Punch Press 12,228.97 debit

Lather 4,076.32 debit

Welder 2,494.71 debit
