On June 1, 2017, ABC Corporation approached 123 Corporation about buying a parcel of undeveloped land. 123 Corp was asking $240,000 for the land and ABC saw that there was some flexibility in the asking price. ABC did not have enough money to make a cash offer to 123 Corp and proposed to give, in return for the land, a $300,000, five-year promissory note that bears interest at the rate of 4%. The interest is to be paid annually to 123 Corp Corporation on June 1 of each of the next five years. 123 Corp insisted that the note taken in return become a mortgage note. 123 Corp accepted the amended offer, and ABC Corp signed a mortgage note for $300,000 due June 1, 2022. ABC would have had to pay 10% at its local bank if it were to borrow the cash for the land purchase. 123 Corp, on the other hand, could borrow the funds at 9%. Both ABC Corp and 123 Corp have December 31st year ends.

1) Assume that 123 Corp had insisted on obtaining an instalment note from ABC Corp instead of a mortgage note. Calculate the purchase price of the land. Then do the following:

a) Calculate the amount of the instalment payments that would be required for a five-year instalment note.

b) Prepare the journal entry for the purchase of the land and the issuance of the instalment note.

c) Prepare any adjusting journal entry that is required at the end of the fiscal year and the first payment made on June 1, 2018, assuming no reversing entries are used.
