(1) Calculate the amount of land:

Land=[IdependentappraisedvalueoflandTotalindependentappraisedvalueoflandandfactory×Valueofcommonstock]=$60,000$240,0000×$200,000(3)=$50,000

(2) Calculate the amount of buildings (factory):

Building(Factory)=[IdependentappraisedvalueoflandTotalindependentappraisedvalueoflandandbuilding×Valueofcommonstock]=$180,000$240,0000×$200,000(3)=$150,000

(3) Calculate the value of common stock:

Commonstock=(Numberofsharesissued×Sellingpriceofpershare)=20,000shares×$10=$200,000

(4) Calculate the amount of equipment:

Equipment=(Acquisitioncost+Salestax+Freightcosts+Installationcosts)=$120,000+$7,000+$10,000+$16,000=$153,000

(5) Calculate the amount of land:

Land=[Investmentsinland+(CostsincurredtoclearthelandSalesofrecoveredtimber)]=[$37,000+($26,000$3,000)]=$60,000

Note: $37,000 is the half value of land acquired ($74,000÷2).
