What would the journal entries be for HVAC repairs that improve/extend the life of the units? Assume cost of $75,000

I should have been more clear - yes the basic entries I know.

DR asset
CR cash

DR depreciation expense
CR accum dep

What if the purchase was financed? Its been many years since my classes and this is the first time I've had this come up. (Im in private not public accounting) Do I just replace the CR to cash with a credit to lease payable? and then offset the lease payable with the payments? I just want to make sure Im not missing something here.
