    d) $1,754,211

    Explanation:

    The computation of the proceeds for the sale of the land is shown below:

    = Interest expense * PVIFA for 10 years at 10% + Face value * PVIF for 10 years at 10%

    = $160,000 * 6.14457 + $2,000,000 * 0.38554

    = $983,131.20 + $771,080

    = $1,754,211

    The interest expense would be

    = $2,000,000 * 8%

    = $160,000

    Simply we multiply the interest expense and face value with its present value interest annuity factor and present value interest factor so that the accurate amount can come.
