External valuations have determined that the building's fair value should be $360,000. Smith's CEO has argued Smith Corporation would never sell the building for less than $425,000. What is the correct fair value and why?   Question 10 options:   a)  $350,000 because that is the carrying value of the building   b)  $425,000 because that is the minimum sales price Smith would accept   c)  $360,000 because that is the perspective of the market   d)  $375,000 because that is the entrance price
