Answer:

The amount recorded in the Land account is $61,200    

Explanation:

The cost of acquisition/purchase of a landed asset includes all the normal, reasonable and necessary costs incurred in obtaining the land and getting it ready for use. These cost includes the price of the land, the legal fees, title fees, taxes, excavation costs etc. On the other hand, cost of improvements on the land are recorded on improvement on asset accounts, where depreciation is put in consideration when computing cost. This is separate from acquisition cost because, there is no depreciation on a land. The cost is calculated as follows:

purchase price = $ 45,000

broker's fees    = $   8,000

accrued taxes  = $    2,000

demolition        = $    2,700

grading             = $    1,500

excavation       =  $    2,000

Total                 =  $ 61,200

The four underlying assumptions of generally accepted accounting principles are economic entity, monetary unit, periodicity, and
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

1. Going concern

2. Economic entity

3. Monetary unit

4. Periodicitys

Explanation:

1. Since Jumbo's Restaurant is planning to close, the assumption of continuity (going concern) is no more applicable. This should be disclosed. Instead asset was still recorded at historical price which is misleading.

2. Gorloks Tax Services is an economic entity, and the property and assets of owners are not considered to be for the business. In this case the boat Sam bought was wrongly reported as an asset of the company.

3. Claim Jumpers when reporting the 5 trucks purchased must include a monetary value for them. The assumption of monetary unit states that all items reported on the balance sheet must be expressed in monetary terms.

4. Cobbler's Etc violated the assumption of periodicity which states the financial position of the business must be declared in a particular accounting period. Accounting period can monthly, quarterly, biannually, and yearly. The business should choose and accounting period and ensure financial position is reported for each of them. In this case financial reporting is not consistent with reporting happening after 14 months and before that 18 months.
