    Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the total cost which is shown below:

    = Purchase price + sales tax + Shipment of machine + Installation of machine

    = $63,000 + $5,400 + $880 + $1,760

    = $7,1040

    Now the journal entry would be

    Equipment A/c Dr $7,1040

    Prepaid insurance A/c Dr $580

    To Cash A/c $3,220 ($880 + $1,760 + $580)

    To Accounts payable $68,400 ($63,000 + $5,400)

    (Being the expenditure and equipment value is recorded)
