Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to state the value in which Wildhorse Co will record the acquisition cost of a land bought.

To do this, we include all the cost except the paving of the parking lot as it is not a required action in the acquisition. Also, we subtract the salvage value of the lumber;

Mathematically we can say we have;

cost of acquiring land + Cost of shed removal + cost of filling and grading + Cost of broker commission + closing cost - salvage value of lumber of sheds

= 80, 000 + 700 + 1,200 + 1,200 + 600 - 190 = $83,510
