LPF above stands for land price factor. The price of land is the land price factor for your rank multiplied by the square of the number of personal acres you already own.
Example: A Prince with 500 personal acres pays 500 * 500 * 4 = 1,000,000 for his next acre. A Duke with the same land would pay 500 * 500 * 5 = 1,250,000 for the same acre.
The rank of King or Queen is no longer based on acreage alone. A minimum of 20,000 acres is needed, and the LPF is 4. But the rise to ruling monarch also requires completing a Path To Royalty. A reasonable estimate for making the improvements required is 400,000,000 gold or more.
The chart above refers to the amount of land needed to ascend. It is a combination of your personal land and the land of all of your subjects. NOTE: It is not advisable to become a Prince(ss) with less then 200 acres of personal land, because you will lose 1 gold/acre due to loss of moral.
