Answer 1

Given:

Current market value:

Land = $93,000

Building = $186,000

Equipment = $31,000

We are required to prepare a schedule allocating the purchase price of $280,000.

The schedule is prepared below.

___________________________

Market (Sales) Value:

Land= $93,000;

Building= $186,000;

Equipment= $31,000;

Total= 310,000(93,000+186,000+31,000)

____________________________

% of Total Market Value:

Land= 30%(93,000/310,000);

Building= 60%(186,000/310,000); Equipment= 10%(31,000/310,000)

Total = 100%

____________________________

Cost of Asset:

Land= 84,000(30%*280,000)

Building = 168,000(60%*280,000)

Equipment = 28,000(10%*280,000)

Total = 280,000(84,000+168,000+28,000)
