Answer:

A) $16,300

Explanation:

According to the concept of historical cost, long-term assets are recorded at their historical price on a company's balance sheet, since the historical cost is the cost of the 'product' when originally acquired by the company the answer should be $16,000, the closest answer is $16,300 it may be an error in the question or the extra $300 are related to the original price paid for the property.

Note: the price of the property has indeed increased, but the increment shouldn't be reported on the balance sheet of the company accordingly to the principle of historical cost (GAAP).
