Answer:

property                        6,236,000 debit

retirement obligation liaiblity 6,236,000‬ credit

Explanation:

The liability will be reported at their discounted expected value

therefore we multiply the 20,000,000 expected erogation in 20 years by the PV factor of 6% in 20 years:

20,000,000 x 0.31180 = 6,236,000‬

As this is a cost associate with the possesion of the property it will be considerd part of the cost to obtain it.
