Respuesta :

Answer:

$95,000

Explanation:

Counter offer: The counter-offer is the changes made in the existing offer terms and conditions. It is usually made for negotiations, in which both the party can agree at the final price.

According to the accounting principles, the land value should be recorded at the historical cost but in the given case, it is recorded at the counter offer value because, in this offer, both the parties are ready to buy and sell the fixed assets i.e land.
