d. $40,000

Respuesta :

Answer:

a. $45,000

Explanation:

The balance records the purchase value of any asset or the value which is known as the historical cost of the asset.

Hence,

$5000 at every 6 months, in four years it will be = 4*2*5000 = $40,000.

And currently the company is paying $5000 cash upfront.

Therefore, the total cost of the equipment to be reported in the balance sheet will be = 40000+5000 = $45,000.

Thanks buddy.
