Answer 1

Answer:

$16,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Amount spent for Acquisition of land = $15,000

Amount spent for Survey/legal fees = $1,200

Amount spent for Land clearing = $300

Amount spent for Fencing = $4,000

Amount spent for Install lighting/signage = $1,160

Now,

The cost of the land in the corporation's books will be

= Acquisition of land + Survey/legal fees + Land clearing

= $15,000 + $1,200 + $300

= $16,500
