    Land ($174,000), building ($348,000) and equipment ($58,000)

    Explanation:

    This is a case of a basket purchase. Basket purchase is usually a purchase of a group of asset. This purchase usually comes with a reduced price when compared to the individual asset's market value. Therefore, the cost of each asset would be allocated based on the individual's asset proportionate market value

    Asset Estimated Fair Value Percentage Allocated Cost

    (a) (b) (c) = (b) / (d) * 100 (e) = (c) * $580,000

    Land $204,000 30% $174,000

    Building $408,000 60% $348,000

    Equipment $68,000 10% $58,000

    Total (d) $680,000 $580,000
