Solution:

Allocation of Joint Cost

  Canyon Section = 60% of 7500000 = $4,500,000 Hilltop Section = 40% of 7500000 = $3,000,000

Average Cost per lot

  Canyon Section = $4,500,000450 = $10,000 Hilltop Section = $3,000,000150 = $20,000

Total or Joint Cost

  Total Cost      = Cost of Land + Improvement Cost                       = 4000000 + 3500000                       = $7,500,000

Market Value
