Fishbone Corporation purchased a special tractor on December 31, 2014. The purchase agreement stipulated that Fishbone should pay $22,310 at the time of purchase and $5,520 at the end of each of the next 8 years. The tractor should be recorded on December 31, 2014, at what amount, assuming an appropriate interest rate of 12%?(Round factor values to 5 decimal places, e.g. 1.25124 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 458,581.)

On January 1, 2014, Fishbone Corporation sold a building that cost $271,700 and that had accumulated depreciation of $104,200 on the date of sale. Fishbone received as consideration a $261,600 non-interest-bearing note due on January 1, 2017. There was no established exchange price for the building, and the note had no ready market. The prevailing rate of interest for a note of this type on January 1, 2014, was 11%. At what amount should the gain from the sale of the building be reported? (Round factor values to 5 decimal places, e.g. 1.25124 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 458,581.)

Explanation / Answer

A )PV of 1 for 11 % at three years period (2017-2014) timing difference will be 0.73119 (1/(1+.11)^3)

Therefore PV= 0.73119 * 261600 = $ 191,279.30

Cost of the building = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation = 271700-104200

= $ 167,500

The gain reported will be = Consideration - Cost = 191279.30 - 167500 =$ 23779.30
