    The cost recorded for the equipment=$229,550

    Explanation:

    The total recorded cost of the automatic equipment has to include the purchase cost and other additional associated costs that come with the equipment. This can be expressed as;

    T=P+A

    where;

    T=total cost

    P=purchase cost/invoice cost

    A=additional costs (electrical work cost+delivery cost+sales tax+repair cost)

    In our case;

    T=unknown

    P=$190,000

    A = (20,000+4,000+13,700+1,850) = $39,550

    replacing;

    T=190,000+39,550=229,550

    The total cost=$229,550

    The cost recorded for the equipment=$229,550
