Answer:

Your company should record:

C. $3.2 million as equipment.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of computer system = $3 million

Installation cost = $200,000

Total equipment cost = $3.2 million

b) The cost of installation, which helps to bring the computer system into its intended use, forms part of the equipment cost.  Therefore, to record the asset in the books of the company, the sum of $3.2 million will be recorded as equipment.  There are no expenses for the equipment at this time.
