CR-building for $250,000.

Respuesta :

Answer: CR - building $200,000

Explanation:

John would record the value of building with book value of $200,000. The reason for that is due to depreciation the value of the building is decreased. The new value is to be realized while trading or selling. Book value is the amount after deducting depreciation. It is important to record building after subtracting the accumulated depreciation.
