Question

a, prepare the journal entry for the purchase on january1,2018.

b, prepare any necessary adjusting entries relative to depreciation (use straight line) amortization on december31,2018.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we discount the note to get the present value of the note.

`(Maturity)/((1 + rate)^(time) ) = PV`

Maturity $600,000.00

time 5 years

rate 0.10

`(600000)/((1 + 0.1)^(5) ) = PV`

PV 372,552.7938

(acquisition - salvage) / useful life = depreciation

(372,552.80 - 70,000) / 5 = depreciation per year

dep = 75,638.2

Interest for the year

372,552.80 x .10 = 37,255.28
