Required:
1. Determine the cost of the land to be reported on the balance sheet.

$306,835

Explanation:

Data provided

Legal fees paid = $2,435

Delinquent taxes = $15,100

Fees paid to remove old building = $19,400

Material salvage sold = $4,100

The computation of the cost of the land to be reported on the balance sheet is below:-

Amount paid to acquire adjacent lot = $27,000 + $247,000

= $274,000

Total cost of land = Amount paid to acquire adjacent lot + Legal fees paid + Fees paid to remove old building - Material salvage sold

= $274,000 + $2,435 + $15,100  + $19,400  - $4,100

= $306,835
