On July 1, 2016, Killearn Company acquired 120,000 of the outstanding shares of Shaun Company for $15 per share. This acquisition gave Killearn a 20 percent ownership of Shaun and allowed Killearn to significantly influence the investee's decisions.

As of July 1, 2016, the investee had assets with a book value of $7 million and liabilities of $148,000. At the time, Shaun held equipment appraised at $581,000 above book value; it was considered to have a seven-year remaining life with no salvage value. Shaun also held a copyright with a five-year remaining life on its books that was undervalued by $1,235,000. Any remaining excess cost was attributable to goodwill. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method. Killearn applies the equity method for its investment in Shaun.

Shaun's policy is to declare and pay a $1 per share cash dividend every April 1 and October 1. Shaun's income, earned evenly throughout each year, was $566,000 in 2016, $593,400 in 2017, and $643,600 in 2018.

In addition, Killearn sold inventory costing $114,600 to Shaun for $191,000 during 2017. Shaun resold $123,500 of this inventory during 2017 and the remaining $67,500 during 2018.

Determine the equity income to be recognized by Killearn during each of these years.

Compute Killearn's investment in Shaun Company's balance as of December 31, 2018.
