Early in its fiscal year ending December 31, 2016, San Antonio Outfitters finalized plans to expand operations. The first stage was completed on March 28 with the purchase of a tract of land on the outskirts of the city. The land and existing building were purchased for $1,100,000. San Antonio paid $350,000 and signed a noninterest bearing note requiring the company to pay the remaining $750,000 on March 28, 2018. An interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money for this type of loan agreement. Title search, insurance, and other closing costs totaling $35,000 were paid at closing.

During April, the old building was demolished at a cost of $85,000, and an additional $65,000 was paid to clear and grade the land. Construction of a new building began on May 1 and was completed on October 29. Construction expenditures were as follows: (FV of $1,PV of $1,FVA of $1,PVA of $1,FVAD of $1andPVAD of $1)(Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
