YellowCard Company manufactures accessories for iPods. It had the following selected transactions during 2017. (Note: For any part of this problem requiring an interest or discount rate, use 10%.)
1. YellowCard provides a 2-year warranty on its docking stations, which it began selling in 2017. During 2017, YellowCard spent $6,000 servicing warranty claims. At year-end, YellowCard estimates that an additional $45,000 will be spent in the future to service warranties related to 2017 sales.
2. YellowCard has a $200,000 loan outstanding from First Trust Corp. The loan is set to mature on February 28, 2018. For several years, First Trust has agreed to extend the loan, as long as YellowCard makes all its quarterly interest payments (interest is due on the last days of each February, May, August, and November) and maintains an acid-test ratio (also called "quick ratio") of at least 1.25. First Trust has provided YellowCard a "commitment letter" indicating that First Trust will extend the loan another 12 months, providing YellowCard makes the interest payment due on March 31.
3. During 2016, YellowCard constructed a small manufacturing facility specifically to manufacture one particular accessory. YellowCard paid the construction contractor $5,000,000 cash (which was the total contract price) and placed the facility into service on January 1, 2017. Because of technological change, YellowCard anticipates that the manufacturing facility will be useful for no more than 10 years. The local government where the facility is located required that, at the end of the 10-year period, YellowCard remediate the facility so that it can be used as a community center. YellowCard estimates the cost of remediation to be $500,000.

          warranty liability 45,000 credit

--to record warrant-related accounts--

interest payable 16,667 debit

interest expense  3,333 debit

          cash                  20,000 credit

--to record interest expense for the loan and installment--

Manufacturing Facilities 5,192,772  debit

              Cash                    5,000,000 credit

              Restoration Liability 192,772 credit

-- to record the payment to contractor--

Explanation:

Warranty: the additional expected expense are considered warranty laibility

Loan: we previously recorded accrued interest from March 1st to Dec 31th

That is: 200,000 x 10% x 10/12 months = 16,667 payable

At February 28th we recognize the last two month of interest

200,000 x 10% x 2/12 months = 3,333 expense

in total we have 16,667 + 3,333 = 20,000 cash outlay

Facility: the asset should add to all the cost necessary to acquire it:

As the conversion into community center is mandatory it is part of the cost:

present value of the 500,000 in ten years:

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity  $500,000.00

time  10.00

rate  0.10000

[tex]\frac{500000}{(1 + 0.1)^{10} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   192,771.6447

Total cost:

5,000,000 cashg + 192,772 liability = 5,192,772
