Answer:

The journal entry is as follows:

Explanation:

January 2        Accumulated Depreciation A/c..............Dr    $28,000

                        Loss on disposal of machine A/c...........Dr    $1,000

                                   To Cash A/c.............................................Cr   $1,000

                                   To Machinery A/c...................................Cr    $28,000

The company pays salvage value so cash is going out of the business, therefore, it is credited. And the salvage value will result in loss on disposal of machine so it is debited. The accumulated depreciation is debited and the account of machine is credited.
