Problem 03
Complying with all, government housing regulations and requirements, the
employees union of a certain firm has the option to purchase either of two
sites, each having an area of 18 hectares (180,000 sq.m.) of undeveloped land.
The first singly owned, would cost Php20.00 a sq.m, but would needa
roadway system, including the access road, 4,000 meters long, at a cost of Php
110.00 per meter. Additional development expenses would be Php 60,000 to
subdivide and grade into 320 house löts, and another Php 32,000 for a hollow
block fence and security gates.
The second site consists of three lots, separately owned, with a total
area of 18 hectares: 7 hectares at Php 25.00 a sq.m. 5 hectares at Php 21.00 a
sq.m and 6 hectares at Php 14.00 a sq.m. The road system for this would be
only 3,200 meters long at Php 100.00 per meter, but needs two box culverts
each costing Php 25.000.00. Lot grading would be Php 35,000; fencing and
security 8atës Phip 24,000.
Assuming that all other facilities would cost the same in both sites,
which of the two sites would you recommend based on cost of site
development alone?
