Answer:

(C) debit to Foreign-Currency Transaction Loss-$1040

Explanation:

Foreign currency related Financial assets and financial liabilities are usually revalued with any difference as a result of the exchange rates posted as a gain or loss in the income statement.

On transaction date, cost of assets

= 520000 * $0.034

On payment date, the amount paid

= 520000 * $0.036

The amount paid is higher than the liability recorded before hence the difference is recognized as a loss on foreign exchange.

= 520000 * $0.036 - 520000 * $0.034

= $1040

Answer:

1.  $173,500

2. $ 71,000

Explanation:

Requirement 1: Solution

We can calculate the fair value of new parcel of land just by adding the current market price with additional cash paid to complete the transaction

Fair Value = Current market price + cash paid additionally

Fair Value = $150,000+$23,500

Fair value = $173,500

Requirement 2: Solution

We need to calculate Gain/loss on exchange first in order to record them on books. This can be done by just subtracting the land's book value from the current market price of land

Gain/loss on exchange = Current market price - book value

Gain/loss on exchange = $150,000 - $79,000

Gain/loss on exchange = $71,000

Entries:               Debit                          Credit  

New land           $173,500

Old land                                                 $79000

Cash                                                       $23,500

Gain                                                        $71,000
