LO.4 The Adams Independent School District wants to sell a parcel of unimproved land that it does not need. Its three best offers are as follows: from the state’s Department of Public Safety (DPS), $2.3 million; from the Second Baptist Church, $2.2 million;

and from Baker Motors, $2.1 million. DPS would use the property for a new state highway patrol barracks; Second Baptist would start a church school; and Baker would open a car dealership. If you are the financial adviser for the school district, which offer would you prefer? Why?
