Respuesta :

Answer:

The cost should be recorded for the land is $15,150

Explanation:

In order to calculate the cost should be recorded for the land we would have to calculate the following formula:

cost should be recorded for the land=(Appraised value of land/Appraised value of land and building)*combine cost of land and building

Appraised value of land=$23,000

Appraised value of land and building=$23,000+$103,000=$126,000

combine cost of land and building=$83,000

Therefore, cost should be recorded for the land=($23,000/$126,000)*$83,000

cost should be recorded for the land=$15,150

The cost should be recorded for the land is $15,150
