On January 1, 2020, Sarasota Co. borrowed and received $507,000
from a major customer evidenced by a zero-interest-bearing note due
in 4 years. As consideration for the zero-interest-bearing feature,
Sarasota agrees to supply the customer’s inventory needs for the
loan period at lower than the market price. The appropriate rate at
which to impute interest is 9%.
| (a) | Prepare the journal entry to record the initial transaction on January 1, 2020. | |
| (b) | Prepare the journal entry to record any adjusting entries needed at December 31, 2020. Assume that the sales of Sarasota’s product to this customer occur evenly over the 4-year period. | 
(Round present value factor calculations to 5 decimal
places, e.g. 1.25124 and the final answer to 0 decimal places e.g.
58,971. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account
titles and enter 0 for the amounts. Credit account titles are
