Solution

The cost of the new machine is calculated by adding the cash paid for the new machine and the fair value of the old machine.

Here's the step-by-step calculation:

  1. Cash paid for the new machine: $32,000
  2. Fair value of the old machine: $10,000

Add these two amounts together:

32,000(cashpaid)+32,000 (cash paid) + 10,000 (fair value of old machine) = $42,000

So, the recorded cost of the new machine should be $42,000.
