The plan of reorganizing for Taylor Companies, Inc.. was approved by the court, stockholders, and creditors on December 31, 20X1. The plan calls for a general restructuring of all debt of Taylor Companies. The liability and capital accounts of the company on December 31, 20X1, are as follows:

A total of \(\$ 30.000\) of accounts payable has been incurred since the company filed its petition for relief under Chapter 11. No other liabilities have been incurred since the petition was filed. No payments have been made on the liabilities subject to compromise that existed on the petition date.
Under the terms of the reorganization plan:
1. The accounts payable creditors existing at the date the petition was filed agree to accept \(\$ 72,000\) of net accounts receivable in full settlement of their claims.
2. The holders of the 10 percent notes payable of \(\$ 150,000\) plus \(\$ 16,000\) of interest payable agree to accept land having a fair value of \(\$ 125,000\), and a book value of \(\$ 85,000\).
3. The holders of the 12 percent bonds payable of \(\$ 200,000\) plus \(\$ 24,000\) of interest payable agree to cancel accrued interest of \(\$ 18,000\), accept cash payment of the remaining \(\$ 6,000\) of interest, and accept a secured interest in the equipment of the company in exchange for extending the term of the bonds for an additional year at no interest.
4. The common shareholders agree to reduce the deficit by changing the par value of the stock to \$2 per share and eliminating any remaining deficit after recognition of all gains or losses from the debt restructuring transactions specified in the plan of reorganization. The deficit will be eliminated by reducing additional paid-in capital.
