A comparable sold for $268,000 and carries adjustments of +$5,000, +$2,500 and -$1,500. What is the adjusted price?

Correct Answer

B) $274,000

Why this is correct: Calculation: $268,000 + $5,000 + $2,500 - $1,500 = $274,000. Why the other choices are wrong: $277,000 adds all three magnitudes and ignores the negative sign; $259,000 deducts all three; $268,000 leaves the comparable unadjusted.
