P 10-12 Early in its fiscal
year ending December 31, 2011, San Antonio Outfitters finalized plans to expand
operations. The first stage was completed on March 28 with the purchase of a
tract of land on the outskirts of the city. The land and existing building were
purchased for $800,000. San Antonio paid $200,000 and signed a
noninterest-bearing note requiring the company to pay the remaining $600,000 on
March 28, 2013. An interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of
money for this type of loan agreement. Title search, insurance, and other
closing costs totaling $20,000 were paid at closing.
During April, the old building
was demolished at a cost of $70,000, and an additional $50,000 was paid to
clear and grade the land. Construction of a new building began on May 1 and was
completed on October 29. Construction expenditures were as follows:
May 30 $1,200,000
July 30 1,500,000
September 1 900,000
October 1 1,800,000
San Antonio borrowed $3,000,000
at 8% on May 1 to help finance construction. This loan, plus interest, will be
paid in 2012. The company also had the following debt outstanding throughout
2011:
$2,000,000, 9% long-term note
payable
$4,000,000, 6% long-term bonds
payable
In November, the company
purchased 10 identical pieces of equipment and office furniture and fixtures
for a lump-sum price of $600,000. The fair values of the equipment and the
furniture and fixtures were $455,000 and $245,000, respectively. In December,
San Antonio paid a contractor $285,000 for the construction of parking lots and
for landscaping.
