Answer:

Cost of the new machine:

= Price of new machine - Trade allowance + Market value of old machine

= $16,000 - $9,000 + $6,000

= $13,000

Consequently, the journal entry would be recorded as follows:

New Machine Cost A/c                               Dr. $13,000

Accumulated Depreciation (Book Value) A/c Dr. $4,000

Loss from machine exchange A/c                    Dr. $2,000

         To Old Machine (Book Value)                    $12,000

         To Cash (16,000 - 9,000)                        $7,000
