a). The credit to the equipment account=$173,000

b). Credit to the accumulated depreciation account for $103,000

c). gain on disposal=$152,000

Explanation:

a). The formula for the book value of the equipment when it caught fire can be expressed as;

Book value=Acquisition cost-accumulated depreciation

where;

acquisition cost=$276,000

accumulated depreciation=$103,000

replacing;

Book value=(276,000-103,000)=$173,000

The credit to the equipment account=$173,000

b).  Credit to the accumulated depreciation account for $103,000

c). The formula for calculating the gain from disposal is;

gain on disposal=insurance check-book value

where;

insurance check=$325,000

book value=173,000

replacing;

gain on disposal=325,000-173,000=$152,000
