Presented below are two independent situations.
(a) On January 1, 2017, Robin Wright Inc. purchased land that had an assessed value of \(350,000 at the time of purchase. A \)550,000, zero-interest-bearing note due January 1, 2020, 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 12%. Determine at what amount the land should be recorded at January 1, 2017, and the interest expense to be reported in 2017 related to this transaction.
(b) On January 1, 2017, Field Furniture Co. borrowed $5,000,000 (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 10% rate of interest is normally charged on this type of loan. Prepare the journal entry to record this transaction and determine the amount of interest expense to report for 2017.

Pierre Company has a 12% note payable with a carrying value of \(20,000. Pierre applies the fair value option to this note. Given an increase in market interest rates, the fair value of the note is \)22,600. Prepare the entry to record the fair value option for this note, assuming
(a) no change in credit risk, and
(b) the change is due to a change in credit risk.
Teton Corporation issued \(600,000 of 7% bonds on November 1, 2017, for \)644,636. The bonds were dated November 1, 2017, and mature in 10 years, with interest payable each May 1 and November 1. Teton uses the effective-interest method with an effective rate of 6%. Prepare Teton’s December 31, 2017, adjusting entry.
