Answer 1

Answer:

$192,880

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Cost of 10-ton draw press is $183,000 and if the cost paid before 15 days, there will be a 4% discount.

Discount Value is

= Cost of Draw Press × Discount Rate

= $183,000 × 4%

= $7,320

Total Capitalized Amount is

= (Total Cost of Draw Press - Discount Value) + Shipping Cost + Installation Cost

= ($183,000 - $7,320) + $4,300 + $12,900

= $175,680 + $4,300 + $12,900

= $192,880

According to the analysis, the capitalized cost of the 10-ton draw press is $192,880.  

Because any cost which incurred for using an asset should be capitalized.
