    Answer: $170,000

    Explanation:

    According to the historical cost concept, the original cost value of a asset (i. e. land) should be recorded in the books. The original cost refers to the cost of a asset at the time of purchasing. As per the principle of historical cost, assets are always recorded as a original cost or historical cost or acquisition cost.

    But when a person sold the asset then he will consider the fair market value.
