Answer 1

Answer:

Value assigned  for Building = $2,520,000

Value assigned  for Press = $1,050,000

Value assigned  for Conveyor belt = $630,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Total appraisal value  = Building + Press + Conveyor belt  

Total appraisal value  =  2,400,000 + 1,000,000 + 600,000

Total appraisal value  = $4,000,000

Value assigned  for Building = (2,400,000/4,000,000)*4,200,000

Value assigned  for Building = $2,520,000

Value assigned  for Press = (1,000,000/4,000,000)*4,200,000

Value assigned  for Press = $1,050,000

Value assigned  for Conveyor belt = (600,000/4,000,000)*4,200,000

Value assigned  for Conveyor belt = $630,000
