The amount that McClelland Company should record the machine upon purchase is $56,505.

Recording the transaction

The proper way to record the transaction based on U.S. GAAP polices is to debit the Machine account with the price of $56,505 as this represents the market value of the machine.

The company should also credit the Notes payable account with $70,000 being the value of the note acquired. A debit will go to the Discount on Note account for $13,495 which is the difference between the note and value of machine.
