    1. $490,000

    2. $481,000

    Explanation:

    1. The computation of the total amount which is included in the balance sheet is shown below:

    = Accounts receivable + Accounts receivable, long term + Land + Patents

    = $215,000 + $118,000 + $63,000 + $94,000

    = $490,000

    In this the land and patents are recorded in the historical rates

    2. The computation of the total amount which is included in the balance sheet is shown below:

    = Accounts receivable + Accounts receivable, long term + Land + Patents

    = $215,000 + $118,000 + $59,000 + $89,000

    = $481,000

    In this all items are recorded in the current rates
