    The single compound journal entry is as follows:

    Land A/c Dr $105,000 ($210,000 * 0.5)

    Building A/c Dr $84,000 ($210,000 * 0.4)

    Equipment A/c Dr $21,000 ($210,000 * 0.1)

    To Notes payable A/c $210,000

    (Being the acquisition is made via note payable is recorded)

    The computation is shown below:

    Total market value

    = Land market value + building market value + equipment market value

    = $110,000 + $88,000 + $22,000

    = $220,000

    The proportion of each asset to market value is

    Land market value $110,000 (A) 0.5 (A : D)

    Building market value $88,000 (B) 0.4 (B : D)

    Equipment market value $22,000 (C) 0.1 (C : D)

    Total market value $220,000 (D)
