Explanation / Answer

25)correct option is "A" -84,300

**Property taxes for current period will be charges as expense and not to be capitalized

26)Depreciation =cost /useful life

             = 10000/5 = 2000 per year

Accumulated depreciation for 2 years : 2000*2=4000

Carrying value =cost-accumulated depreciation

        = 10000-4000 =$6000

Gain/(loss)=sale value -carrying value

            = 5000-6000

              = $ -1000 loss

correct option is "B"

Purchase cost 75000 commission 4500 property taxes 4000 Title insurance 800 Total cost 84300
