Question:

Entre Preneur found a site for his new haute cuisine restaurant. The site has a vacant gasoline station. He purchased the property for $ 900,000 and had the station demolished at a cost of $ 30,000. A government regulation required that he spend $ 40,000 to remove and dispose of three underground tanks and $ 30,000 to refine the soil. The restaurant was constructed for $ 1,800,000. Avoidable interest during construction totaled $ 22,000.
