To compute:
The table showing the cost incurred and its allocation.

Answer to Problem 3BPSB
Solution:
First we need to calculate apportionment of purchase price-
Allocation of purchase price | Appraised value | Percentage | Allocated costs |
Land | 795,200 | 56% | 868,000 |
Building B | 482,800 | 34% | 527,000 |
Land Improvement B | 142,000 | 10% | 155,000 |
Total | 1,420,000 | 100% | 1,550,000 |
Table showing cost incurred-
Details | Land | Building B | Building C | Land Improvement B | Land Improvement C |
Purchase price | 868,000 | 527,000 | | 155,000 | |
Demolition | 122,000 | | | | |
Land grading | 174,500 | | | | |
Improvements (new) | | | | | 103,500 |
New building | | | 1,458,000 | | |
Total | 1,164,500 | 527,000 | 1,458,000 | 155,000 | 103,500 |
Explanation of Solution
Given,
Appraised value
- Land - $795,200
- Building B - $482,800
- Land Improvement B - $142,000
Now, we need to calculate the percentage allocated to each asset-
Allocation of purchase price-
Given,
- Purchase price = $1,550,000
Calculation of cost incurred-
Given,
- Purchase price of Land - $868,000 (Calculated above)
- Purchase price of Building B- $527,000 (Calculated above)
- Purchase price of Land Improvement B - $155,000 (Calculated above)
- Demolition − $122,000
- Land grading - $174,500
- Improvements- $103,500
- New building - $1,458,000 Total cost of Land −
Thus, table for allocation of costs incurred is prepared.
