Carow Corporation purchased, as a held-for-collection investment, \(60,000 of the 8%, 5-year bonds of Harrison, Inc.

for \)65,118, which provides a 6% return. The bonds pay interest semiannually. Prepare Carow’s journal entries for (a) the purchase

of the investment, and (b) the receipt of semiannual interest and premium amortization

(Loss Contingencies: Entries and Essays) Polska Corporation, in preparation of its December 31, 2017, financial statements, is attempting to determine the proper accounting treatment for each of the following situations.

1. As a result of uninsured accidents during the year, personal injury suits for \(350,000 and \)60,000 have been filed against the company. It is the judgment of Polska’s legal counsel that an unfavorable outcome is unlikely in the \(60,000 case but that an unfavorable verdict approximating \)250,000 will probably result in the \(350,000 case.

2. Polska owns a subsidiary in a foreign country that has a book value of \)5,725,000 and an estimated fair value of \(9,500,000. The foreign government has communicated to Polska its intention to expropriate the assets and business of all foreign investors. On the basis of settlements other firms have received from this same country, Polska expects to receive 40% of the fair value of its properties as final settlement.

3. Polska’s chemical product division consisting of five plants is uninsurable because of the special risk of injury to employees and losses due to fire and explosion. The year 2017 is considered one of the safest (luckiest) in the division’s history because no loss due to injury or casualty was suffered. Having suffered an average of three casualties a year during the rest of the past decade (ranging from \)60,000 to $700,000), management is certain that next year the company will probably not be so fortunate.

Instructions

(a) Prepare the journal entries that should be recorded as of December 31, 2017, to recognize each of the situations above.

(b) Indicate what should be reported relative to each situation in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Explain why.

Calaf’s Drillers erects and places into service an off-shore oil platform on January 1, 2018, at a cost of \(10,000,000. Calaf is legally required to dismantle and remove the platform at the end of its useful life in 10 years. Calaf estimates it will cost \)1,000,000 to dismantle and remove the platform at the end of its useful life in 10 years. (The fair value at January 1,2018, of the dismantle and removal costs is $450,000.) Prepare the entry to record the asset retirement obligation

(Equity Method) On January 1, 2017, Pennington Corporation purchased 30% of the common shares of Edwards

Company for \(180,000. During the year, Edwards earned a net income of \)80,000 and paid dividends of $20,000.

Instructions

Prepare the entries for Pennington to record the purchase and any additional entries related to this investment in Edwards Company

in 2017.

(Available-for-Sale and Held-to-Maturity Debt Securities Entries) The following information relates to the debt

securities investments of Wildcat Company.

1. On February 1, the company purchased 10% bonds of Gibbons Co. having a par value of \(300,000 at 100 plus accrued interest.

Interest is payable on April 1 and October 1.

2. On April 1, semiannual interest is received

3. On July 1, 9% of bonds of Sampson, Inc. were purchased. These bonds with a par value of \)200,000 were purchased at 100

5. On October 1, semiannual interest is received.

6. On December 1, semiannual interest is received.

7. On December 31, the fair value of the bonds purchased February 1 and July 1 were 95 and 93, respectively.

Instructions

(a) Prepare any journal entries you consider necessary, including year-end entries (December 31), assuming these are

available-for-sale securities.

(b) If Wildcat classified these as held-to-maturity investments, explain how the journal entries would differ from those in part (a).
