Answer:

d. The cost of land and building is $295,000 and $1,375,000 respectively

Explanation:

Cost of land = Purchase price + Price for demolishing old building + Legal fee on  purchase contract & investigation - Salvage value of demolished  material

Cost of land = $280,000 + $20,000 + $5,000 - $10,000

Cost of land = $305,000−$10,000

Cost of land = $295,000

Cost of building = Construction cost + Architect′ s fee

= $1,340,000 + $35,000

= $1,375,000
