Facts: The Jacobson Family Farm is located down the road from Green Acres Sod Company. When Dale Jacobson passed away the farm went up for auction and at $800,000 Green Acres made the winning bid! After paying the auctioneer commission and all closing fees the sod company was in for a total purchase price of $828,200 (which is still a good deal when compared to the $1,025,000 appraised value publicized by the auction house prior to the sale).

The farm purchase was finalized March 1, 2018 and included the following 4 distinct assets: 80 acres of land, the Jacobsons 4-bedroom historic farmhouse, various pieces of equipment and some old run-down barns scattered throughout the 80 acres. The auction house provided the following individual appraised values for each asset:

80 acres $660,000

4 bedroom Farmhouse $315,000

equipment $50,000

barns $0

Total $1,025,000

It is Green Acres intention to use the farmhouse as office space and the 80 acres to grow sod. During March 2018, Green Acres incurred $71,200 of additional cost as shown below:

$8,000 to repair and recondition the used farm equipment for damage that already existed at the time of the auction

$12,000 to demolish and remove the old barns*

(1,800) *Green Acres was able to sell 225 planks of barnwood salvages form the demolition at $8 per plank.

18,000 to re-grade the land & remove tree stumps making it suitable for planting sod.

35,000 remodeling for office space in farmhouse

Total: $ 71,200

Also, in March, Green Acres purchased a new irrigation system. The system was listed in the vendors catalog at a selling price of $115,000 but Green Acres was able to negotiate a 10% trade discount and payment terms of 1/5, n/30. The system was ordered March 8 and shipped FOB shipping point on March 18 with $2,500 of freight prepaid. The system was delivered March 19. Green Acres paid the balance due to the vendor on March 21 and then spent an additional $2,000 in labor to install the system and another $1,000 in labor to test it.

Finally, in October 2018, when harvest was over, Green Acres spent $1,200 winterizing the equipment and $800 winterizing the irrigation system. Winterizing is a common practice and while it doesnt improve the assets it does insure they maintain their condition during the colder months such that they are ready to be used in spring.
