On December 1, 2005, Tigg Mortgage Co. gave Pod Corp. a $200,000, 12% loan.
Pod received proceeds of $194,000 after the deduction of a $6,000 nonrefundable loan origination fee. Principal and interest are due in 60 monthly installments of $4,450, beginning January 1, 2006. The repayments yield an effective interest rate of 12% at a present value of $200,000 and 13.4% at a present value of $194,000.

What amount of accrued interest receivable should Tigg include in its December 31, 2005 balance sheet?

B. 	$2,166
C. 	$2,000
D. 	$0
A

C

($200,000) x (.12) x (1/12) = $2,000

“accrued interest receivable” refers to the cash amount of interest due. The cash amount of interest due is based on the contractual interest rate and face value. The loan origination fee is a way of increasing the effective interest but it does not affect the cash interest component

Q

On June 1, 2005, Yola Corp. loaned Dale $500,000 on a 12% note, payable in five annual installments of $100,000 beginning January 2, 2006. In connection with this loan, Dale was required to deposit $5,000 in a noninterest-bearing escrow account.
The amount held in escrow is to be returned to Dale after all principal and interest payments have been made. Interest on the note is payable on the first day of each month beginning July 1, 2005. Dale made timely payments through November 1, 2005. On January 2, 2006, Yola received payment of the first principal installment plus all interest due.

On December 31, 2005, Yola’s interest receivable on the loan to Dale should be

A. 	$0
B. 	$5,000
C. 	$10,000
D. 	$15,000
A

C

Because the last interest payment was made on November 1, the interest for November and December is unpaid as of December 31, 2005. Therefore, two months of interest is receivable, as of December 31, 2005, for a total receivable of $10,000 = (2/12)(12%)($500,000).

Q

On December 31, 2005, Jet Co. received two $10,000 notes receivable from customers in exchange for services rendered. On both notes, interest is calculated on the outstanding principal balance at the annual rate of 3% and payable at maturity.
The note from Hart Corp., made under customary trade terms, is due in nine months and the note from Maxx, Inc. is due in five years. The market interest rate for similar notes on December 31, 2005 was 8%. The compound interest factors to convert future values into present values at 8% follow:
Present value of $1 due in nine months: .944
Present value of $1 due in five years: .680

At what amounts should these two notes receivable be reported in Jet’s December 31, 2005, balance sheet?

	  Hart  	           Maxx  
	 $9,440 	         $6,800 
	 $9,652 	         $7,820 
	 $10,000 	 $6,800 
	 $10,000 	 $7,820
A

Hart $10,000 - Maxx $7,820

9-mo note is reported at FV because current notes need not be measured at PV.

5-yr note is reported at $7,820, the present value of future cash flows

Computation:
$10,000 + $10,000(.03)(5 years)], which is the present value of the note plus the present value of the 3% interest.

Q

On December 31, 1999, Key Co. received two $10,000 noninterest-bearing notes from customers in exchange for services rendered. The note from Alpha Co., which is due in nine months, was made under customary trade terms, but the note from Omega Co., which is due in two years, was not. The market interest rate for both notes at the date of issuance is 8%. The present value of $1 due in nine months at 8% is .944. The present value of $1 due in two years at 8% is .857. At what amounts should these two notes receivable be reported in Key’s December 31, 1999, balance sheet?

            Alpha  	          Omega  
	 $ 9,440   	 $ 8,570 
	 $10,000 	 $ 8,570 
	 $ 9,440 	         $10,000 
	 $10,000 	 $10,000
A

Alpha $10,000 - Omega $8570

9-mo note is reported at FV

2-yr note computation:
$10,000 x .857, which is the present value of the note plus the present value of the 8% interest.

The note from Omega is discounted as a single sum for two time periods at 8% to be reported at $10,000X.857=$8,750.

Q

On December 30, 2005, Chang Co. sold a machine to Door Co. in exchange for a noninterest-bearing note requiring ten annual payments of $10,000. Door made the first payment on December 30, 2005. The market interest rate for similar notes at the date of issuance was 8%. Information on present value factors is as follows:

8% PV PV of ORDAnn
Period 9 .50 6.25
10 .46 6.71

In its December 31, 2005, balance sheet, what amount should Chang report as note receivable?

A. 	$45,000
B. 	$46,000
C. 	$62,500
D. 	$67,100
A

C

The note receivable should be reported at the present value of the nine remaining payments. The first payment was made at the date of the sale. The remaining nine payments comprise an ordinary annuity as of December 31, 2005 because the next payment is due one year from that date.
Therefore, the present value and reported note value on that date is 6.25($10,000) = $62,500.

Q

Leaf Co. purchased from Oak Co. a $20,000, 8%, 5-year note that required five equal annual year-end payments of $5,009. The note was discounted to yield a 9% rate to Leaf. At the date of purchase, Leaf recorded the note at its present value of $19,485.

What should be the total interest revenue earned by Leaf over the life of this note?

A. 	$5,045
B. 	$5,560
C. 	$8,000
D. 	$9,000
A

B

Total interest revenue is the amount received over the term of the note less the present value of the note: 5($5,009) - $19,485 = $5,560.

Leaf paid $19,485 for the note, and will receive 5($5,009) over the note term. The difference is interest revenue.

Q

Jole Co. lent $10,000 to a major supplier in exchange for a noninterest-bearing note due in three years and a contract to purchase a fixed amount of merchandise from the supplier at a 10% discount from prevailing market prices over the next three years.

The market rate for a note of this type is 10%. On issuing the note, Jole should record

  Disc on note rec  Deferred chrg  
	 Yes 	                Yes 
	 Yes                 	 No 
	 No 	                        Yes 
	 No 	                         No
A

Yes - Yes

There are two major issues embedded in this question:
Accounting for a noninterest-bearing note, and
Accounting for a future discount to be received as part of the compensation for the loan.
For accounting purposes, a market rate of interest must be imputed for noninterest notes (and those with an unrealistic stated interest rate) and the note recorded at its present value.
The difference between the present value of the note and the cash to be received from the note is recognized as part of the cost of goods to be acquired in the future at a discount and recorded as a deferred charge (like a “prepayment”). The entry for Jole Co. would be:
DR: Note Receivable [1] $10,000
Deferred Charge [2] 2,487
CR: Discount on Note [1] $ 2,487
Cash 10,000
[1] PV of Note = $10,000 x (PV of $1 @ 10% for 3 years)
= $10,000 x .75131
= $ 7,513
Face of Note $10,000 - PV ($7,513) = Discount
[2] PV of Note ($7,513) - Cash ($10,000) = Deferred Charge ($2,487)

Q

On August 15, 2005, Benet Co. sold goods for which it received a note bearing the market rate of interest on that date. The four-month note was dated July 15, 2005.
Note that the principal, together with all interest, is due November 15, 2005.
When the note was recorded on August 15, which of the following accounts increased?

A. 	Unearned discount.
B. 	Interest receivable.
C. 	Prepaid interest.
D. 	Interest revenue.
A

B

The note was received one month into its term. Like a bond issued between interest dates and which collects accrued interest from the bondholder since the most recent interest payment date, this note is recorded with interest receivable for one month.
Benet earns only three months of interest revenue because that is the length of time it will hold the note
