    The entry for this transaction would be this:

    Land 1,827,000

    Ordinary shares 1,827,000

    The market value of the shares on this transaction does not affect the recording of this transaction. If the share has no par value, the stated value should be used. Stated value is a value assigned by the company to its stock for the purpose of accounting and it does not have any relation with the market value of the shares. Since stated value is not given in this problem, we should record the entire amount of the land exchanged in this transaction to the "Ordinary shares" account.
