Presented below are two independent situations:
(a) On January 1, 2014, Robin Wright Inc. purchased land that had an assessed value of $362,000 at the time of purchase. A $656,000, zero-interest-bearing note due January 1, 2017, was given in exchange. There was no established exchange price for the land, nor a ready fair value for the note. The interest rate charged on a note of this type is 11%.
Determine at what amount the land should be recorded at January 1, 2014, and the interest expense to be reported in 2014 related to this transaction. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 38,548.)
b) On January 1, 2014, Field Furniture Co. borrowed $4,107,000 (face value) from Gary Sinise Co., a major customer, through a zero-interest-bearing note due in 4 years. Because the note was zero-interest-bearing, Field Furniture agreed to sell furniture to this customer at lower than market price. A 9% rate of interest is normally charged on this type of loan.
Prepare the journal entry to record this transaction. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 38,548. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts. Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)
