The cash used to purchase the machine is an outflow so it's credited on the cash a/c

2. Electricity wiring on the machine is part of the acquisition cost, hence we debit machinery account and the cash paid for that is credited on cash a/c

3. Cost of securing it in place is also an operating cost hence you debit machinery a/c and credit the cash used to pay for it in the cash a/c
