(a)
Journal entry to record the transaction is,
Particulars Debit Credit
Land and Building (460000 + 520000) $980,000
Cash Paid $360,000
Mortgage Payable (980,000 - 360,000) $620,000
We assume that 4% interest is chargeable each semiannual payment and that each subsequent payment is charged 4% on the remaining amount of principal minus any preceding principal payments.
(b)
First installment = Principal + Interest payable
= 31,000 + (620,000 * 0.04) = $55,800
(c)
Second payment = 31,000 + [(620,000 - 31000) * 0.04] = $54,560
Since the chart of accounts is not provided you can confirm the the account headings.
