Solution

The cost of the land for Morgan Farms would include the purchase price of the land, the legal fees to complete the transaction, and the cost to have the land graded.

Here's how you calculate it:

  • Purchase price of the land: $250,000
  • Legal fees: $1,000
  • Cost to have the land graded: $3,700

Add all these costs together:

250,000(purchaseprice)+250,000 (purchase price) + 1,000 (legal fees) + 3,700(grading)=3,700 (grading) = 254,700

So, Morgan Farms would record the land cost as $254,700.
