Values is the correct subject here. And the subject verb agreement is the deciding factor for A vs E

simplyjat is correct

one more point
d is discounted because of 'which' which refers to only land, when it should have been 'declining values'

Does which refer to the noun right before it? Here we have a compound noun formed by FE & L. Does which refer to the latter only in a compound noun?
