On January 1, 2020, Avery Co. borrowed and received $400,000 from a major customer evidenced by a zero-interest-bearing note due in 3 years. As consideration for the zero-interest-bearing feature, Avery agrees to supply the customer's inventory needs for the loan period at lower than the market price. The appropriate rate at which to impute interest is 8%.

(a) Prepare the journal entry to record the initial transaction on January 1, 2017.

(b) Prepare the journal entry to record any adjusting entries needed at December 31, 2017. Assume that the sales of Avery's product to this customer occur evenly over the 3-year period.

    Borrowed and received 4,000,000

    Zero Interest bearing note due in 3 years

    The appropriate rate to which to impute Interest 8%

    Calculate Present Value of $400,000 at 8% for 3 years

    Present Value would be 317,533

    Discount value derived 400,000-317,533 82,467

    Dr Cash 4,00,000

    Dr Discount on Note Payable 82,467

    Cr Note Payable 4,00,000

    Cr Unearned revenue 82,467

    Dec 31'2020

    Dr Interst expenses 25,403

    Cr Discount on Note payable 25,403

    (present value * 8% = $317533*8%)
