    Sorry but we do not have the time to provide complete answers to questions.

    Surely you have the answer in the same book in which you found the question?

    Ask about any problems you have in understanding the answer and then I will try and help.
    (I assume that you have watched all of our Paper F3 lectures?)

    The new van costs $1400 more than has been recorded, and they have effectively sold the old van for 1400.

    So the entry required is Dr New van with 1400 and Cr Disposal account with 1400.
