A seller received $800,000 for a 5.5 acre rectangular parcel alongside a road frontage. The property is 400’ deep. What was the price per front foot of the property?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,335.67  per front foot

Explanation:

First we must determine the total footage of the property = 5.5 acres x 43,560 feet² per acre = 239,580 ft²

Now we divide the total footage by the number of feet deep =  239,580 ft² / 400 feet deep = 598.95 front feet

Finally we divide $800,000 / 598.95 front feet = $1,335.67  per front foot

Price is termed as the cost or the amount that the individual pays to consume a unit of product or goods and services. The price per front foot of the property is $1,335.67.

Computation of the price per front of the property is:

There is a need to calculate the total square footage:

[tex]\text{Total Square Footage} = \text{Total acres} \times \text{Per Acre Rectangular Land}\\\\\text{Total Square Footage} = 5.5 \times 43,560'\\\\\text{Total Square Footage} = 239,580[/tex]

The property is 400 deep.

[tex]\text{Depth of the property} = \dfrac{\text{Total Square Footage}}{\text{Depth of the property}} \\\\ \text{Depth of the property}= \dfrac{239,580}{400'}\\\\ \text{Depth of the property} = 598.95\:\rm front\:\rm feet[/tex]

[tex]\text{Price of the front feet}= \dfrac{\text{Total price}}{\text{Depth of the property}.}\\\\\text{Price of the front feet} = \dfrac{\$800,000}{598.95' } \\\\ \text{Price of the front feet}= $1,335.67 \:\rm per \:\rm front \:\rm foot.[/tex]

Therefore, the amount to the front foot of the property is $1,335.67 per front foot.
