Essay

Ginvold Co. began operating a subsidiary in a foreign country on January 1, 2013 by acquiring all of the common stock for §50,000 Stickles, the local currency. This subsidiary immediately borrowed §120,000 on a five-year note with ten percent interest payable annually beginning on January 1, 2014. A building was then purchased for §170,000 on January 1, 2013. This property had a ten-year anticipated life and no salvage value and was to be depreciated using the straight-line method. The building was immediately rented for three years to a group of local doctors for §6,000 per month. By year-end, payments totaling §60,000 had been received. On October 1, §5,000 were paid for a repair made on that date and it was the only transaction of this kind for the year.
