$600,000.00 is the value that will be attributed to land in a consolidated balance sheet at the date of acquisition?

In the acquisition process,  assets and liabilities of the business being bought get evaluated to ascertain their true worth.  Assets such as land, buildings, and machinery undergo valuation. Their market value or fair value is recorded in the books of the acquiring entity as the actual value of the asset at the time of acquisition.
