Cr Cash+/-394,875.00

Explanation:

Land appraised at $189,000

Land improvements appraised at $63,000 Building appraised at $168,000

TOTAL 420,000

% of Total × Total cost of Acquisition

Appraisal

volume

45% ×394,875=177,693.75Apportioned cost

15% ×394,875=59,231.25 Apportioned cost

40%×394,875=157,950.00 Apportioned cost

Total 100% =394,875.00

Purchase price 375,000 + Closing cost 19,875 = Total cost of acquisition 394,875

For percentage use total cost divided by appraised value 189,000 / 420,000 = 45%

For percentage use total cost divided by appraised value 63,000 / 420,000 = 15%

For percentage use total cost divided by appraised value 168,000 / 420,000 = 40%

Allocation of total cost: Land(394,875x 0.45) = 177,693.75.00 + land improvement (394,875 x 0.15) = 59,231.25+ building (394,875 x 0.4) = 157,950.00

177,693.75+59,231.25+157,950.00= Total 394,875.00

Answer:

1. Land cost $177,693.75

  Land improvement cost $59,231.25

  Building cost $157,950 .00

2. Debit Land  $177,693.75

Total appraised value of the real estate purchased

= $189,000 + $63,000 + $168,000

Total cost of real estate based on payment

= $375,000 + $19,875

= $394,875

Cost allocated to;

Land improvements = ($63,000/$420,000) × $394,875

= $59,231.25

Land = ($189,000/$420,000) × $394,875

= $177,693.75

Building = ($168,000/$420,000) × $394,875

= $157,950 .00

The entry required would be debits to the individual assets account and a lump sum credit to cash for the transaction.

Pani-rosa [81]
