Pleasant Hills Properties is developing a golf course subdivision that includes 250 home lots; 100 lots are golf course lots and will sell for $95,000 each; 150 are street frontage lots and will sell for $65,000. The developer acquired the land for $1,800,000 and spent another $1,400,000 on street and utilities improvement. Compute the amount of joint cost to be allocated to the street frontage lots using value basis. (Round your intermediate percentages to 2 decimal places.)

The relevant multiple choices are as follows:

$1,920,000.

$720,000.

$1,620,800.

$1,579,200.

$1,080,000.

The correct answer is the third option which is $1,620,800.

Explanation:

Total joint costs=cost of land acquisition+cost of street and utilities improvement

cost of land acquisition=$1,800,000

cost of street and utilities improvement=$1,400,000

total joint costs=$1,800,000+$1,400,000=$3,200,000

sales  value of the golf course lots=100*$95,000=$9,500,000

sales value of street frontage lots=150*$65,000=$ 9,750,000

Total sales value =$9,500,000+$9,750,000=$ 19,250,000

joint costs to street frontage lots=$3,200,000*$9,750,000/$19,250,000.00

                                                     =$ 1,620,779.22  

The closest option is the third option above.

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.
