Explanation / Answer

Land:

Purchase price = 40000

Title search and other fees = 6000

Broker’s fee = 7000

Demolition cost = 3700

Total cost of land = 40000+6000+7000+3700 = 56700

Land Improvement:

Grading = 1200

Digging foundation for road = 3000

Laying and paving driveway = 25000

Lighting = 7500

Signs = 1500

Land improvement cost = 1200+3000+25000+7500+1500 = 38200
