Sullivan's Island Company began operating a subsidiary in a foreign country on January 1,


2017, by investing capital in the amount of 60,000 pounds. The subsidiary immediately
borrowed 140,000 pounds on a five-year note with 10 percent interest payable annually
beginning on January 1, 2018. The subsidiary then purchased for 200,000 pounds a building
that had a 10-year expected life and no salvage value and is to be depreciated using the
straight-line method. Also on January 1, 2017, the subsidiary rented the building for three years
to a group of local attorneys for 8,000 pounds per month. By year-end, rent payments totaling
80,000 pounds had been received, and 16,000 pounds was in accounts receivable. On October
1, 4,000 pounds was paid for a repair made to the building. The subsidiary transferred a cash
dividend of 12,000 pounds back to Sullivan's Island Company on December 31, 2017. The
