On January 1, 2013, the Farmington Company purchased a packaging and labeling machine. Farmington paid $25,000 down and signed a noninterest bearing note requiring six annual installments of $10,000 to be paid on each December 31 beginning December 31, 2013. The fair value of the machine is not determinable. An interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation.
