    Correct option is D

    $ 22,923

    Explanation:

    According to International Accounting standards (IAS) 16 property plan and equipment (PPE), the cost of an asset is the purchase cost plus other costs of bringing it to the intended working conditions.

    So we will add the purchase cost to the cost of delivery, tax and installation.

    The purchase cost less discount = (100-2) % * 21,500 = $21,070

    The cost of the equipment = $21,070 + 320 + 350 + 1183

    =$ 22,923
