Step by step solution

01

Calculation of interest

Intereston5YearNotePayable=NotePayable×InterestRate=$2,000,000×10%=$200,000

Intereston4YearNotePayable=NotePayable×InterestRate=$3,500,000×11%=$385,000

02

Calculation of total borrowed interest

TotalInterest=Intereston5YearNotePayable+Intereston4YearNotePayable=$200,000+$385,000=$585,000

TotalBorrowedAmount=5YearNotePayable+4YearNotePayable=$2,000,000+$3,500,000=$5,500,000

03

Calculation of Weighted average interest

WeightedAverageInterest=TotalInterestTotalBorrowedAmount×100=$585,000$5,500,000×100=10.64%

The seller’s book value was \)300,000 for the land and \(900,000 for the building. By appraisal, the fair value was estimated to be \)500,000 for the land and $2,000,000 for the building.

How does the concept of commercial substance affect the accounting and analysis of this exchange?

Question: Once equipment has been installed and placed in operation, subsequent expenditures relating to this equipment are frequently thought of as repairs or general maintenance and, hence, chargeable to operations in the period in which the expenditure is made.

What are the factors that should be considered in making such a decision? Discuss fully.
