Post the transactions to individual T-accounts and prepare an adjusted trial balance for Rocky Mountain Company as of December 31, 2017.

The company purchased a building December 1, 2017 with a LT Mortgage Payable of $300,000 at 8% interest. (Record the purchase of the building.)

The company issued 1,000 shares of Common Stock for $6,000 on December 25, 2017.

On December 29, 2017 the company declared a cash dividend of $3.00 per share for common stock on the shares issued and declared (including the additional 1,000 shares issued on December 25th.)

The terms of the LT mortgage payable from #1 above require the company to make monthly installment payments over the term of the loan. Each payment consists of interest on the unpaid balance of the loan and a reduction of loan principal. Record the first monthly payment of $3,800 on the LT Mortgage Payable on December 31, 2017.

The company last paid interest on the ST note payable on November 1, 2017.   Record the accrued interest expense for the last 2 months of 2017. The annual interest rate is 8%. Round to nearest whole dollar.

The Bonds Payable and related Premium amounts on the Nov. trial balance relate to the Jan. 1, 2017 issuance of the following bonds: On Jan. 1, 2017, the company issued 10%, 10-year bonds when the market rate for similar investments was 8%. The company pays interest each year on January 1st. On Dec. 31, 2017, use the effective interest method of amortizing the premium on bonds payable to accrue the interest expense for 2017. Round your interest expense calculation to the nearest whole dollar.

The Unearned Revenue amount on the Nov. trial balance relates to amounts that the company previously collected in cash for sales that were to be completed in the future. The company completed some of these sales during December and now owes only $10,000 of that unearned revenue. Record the necessary adjustment for December 31, 2017.

On December 31, 2017, the company purchased 50 shares of its own Preferred Stock for Treasury Stock for $11 per share.
