    Did I answer this accounting problem right?
    June 16: Byte purhased a building and the land it is on for $131,000, to house its repair facilities and to store computer equipment. The lot on which the building is located is valued at $21,000. The balance of the cost is to be allocated to the building. Byte made a cash down payment of $13,100 and executed a mortgage for the balance. The mortgage is payable in eight equal annual installments beginning July 1.

    Dr. Building Cost $21,000
    Cr. Cash $13,100
    Cr. Mortgage Payable $138,900
