Question

Holly Springs, Inc. contracted with Coldwater Corporation to have constructed a custom-made lathe. The machine was completed and ready for use on January 1, 2018. Holly Springs paid for the lathe by issuing a $380,000 note due in three years. Interest, specified at 3%, was payable annually on December 31 of each year. The cash market price of the lathe was unknown. It was determined by comparison with similar transactions for which 7% was a reasonable rate of interest.
