    Book Value
  Appraisal Value
Land   $219,000   $144,000
Buildings   244,000   351,000
Equipment   304,000   304,000

Buildings   244,000    
Equipment   304,000    
  Cash       692,000

Cullumber Industries expects the building structure to last another 20 years; however, it expects that it will have to replace the roof in the next five years. Torres Co. indicated that, on initial construction of the building, the roof amounted to 19% of the cost of the building. Because of the unique design and materials needed to replace the roof, the contractors stated that the roof structure is currently worth 15% of the value of the building purchase.

  Cash       1,600
  Notes Payable       28,200
  Interest Payable       2,820
     
3.   Kim Company purchased equipment for $21,600, terms 4/10, n/30. Because the company intended to take the discount, it made no entry until it paid for the acquisition. The entry was:

  Cash       20,736
  Purchase Discounts       864
     
4.   Kaiser Inc. recently received land at zero cost from the Village of Chester as an inducement to locate its business in the village. The land’s appraised value was $31,300. The company made no entry to record the land because it had no cost basis.

Buildings   752,000

  Sales Revenue       166,000
