    Answer and Explanation:

    The journal entries are shown below:

    1 Equipment $53,420

    To Cash $53,420

    (Being the equipment is purchased for cash is recorded)

    The computation is given below:

    = Cash price of machine + sales tax + shipping cost + insurance during shipping + installation and testing cost

    = $49,500 + $3,650 + $100 + $60 + $110

    = $53,420

    2. Depreciation expense $9,614

    To Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment $9,614

    (Being the depreciation expense is recorded)

    The computation is shown below:

    = ($53,420 - $5,350) : (5 years)

    = $9,614
