Accumulated depreciation (20,200 )
NGN 50,200 NGN 50,200

The subsidiary acquired the inventory on August 1, 2016, and the land and building in 2010. It issued the common stock in 2008. During 2017, the following transactions took place:

2017
Feb. 1 Paid 8,040,000 NGN on the note payable.
May 1 Sold entire inventory for 16,400,000 NGN on account.
June 1 Sold land for 6,040,000 NGN cash.
Aug. 1 Collected all accounts receivable.
Sept.1 Signed long-term note to receive 8,040,000 NGN cash.

Nov. 1 Bought land for 3,040,000 NGN on account.
Dec. 1 Declared and paid 3,040,000 NGN cash dividend to parent.
Dec. 31 Recorded depreciation for the entire year of 2,020,000 NGN.

The U.S dollar ($) exchange rates for 1 NGN are as follows:

2008 NGN 1 = $ 0.0052
2010 1 = 0.0046
August 1, 2016 1 = 0.0066
December 31, 2016 1 = 0.0068
February 1, 2017 1 = 0.0070
May 1, 2017 1 = 0.0072
June 1, 2017 1 = 0.0074
August 1, 2017 1 = 0.0078
September 1, 2017 1 = 0.0080
October 1, 2017 1 = 0.0082
November 1, 2017 1 = 0.0084
December 1, 2017 1 = 0.0086
December 31, 2017 1 = 0.0092
Average for 2017 1 = 0.0082
  1. Assuming the NGN is the subsidiary's functional currency, what is the translation adjustment determined solely for 2017?

  2. Assuming the U.S.$ is the subsidiary's functional currency, what is the remeasurement gain or loss determined solely for 2017?
