    D. $8,000 and $70,000

    Explanation:

    Data provided as per the question:-

    Old machine = $62,000

    New machine = $70,000

    The computation of recognized gain or loss is shown below:-

    Realized gain = New machine - Old machine

    = $70,000 - $62,000

    = $8,000

    Therefore, for computing the realized gain we simply deduct old machine from new machine the fair base value is $70,000, so it has been recorded.
