Answer:

$550,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the cost of the land is shown below:

= Cash paid + note payable amount + legal fees incurred + sales commission charged + surveying fees + appraisal fee

= $100,000 + $400,000 + $19,000 + $25,000 + $1,000 + $5,000

= $550,000

For computing the cost of the land we added all the cost given in the question as it is related to the land
