Zon Tech Income Statements For the four years ended December 31, 2004 (in 000's except per share amounts) 2004 $27,500 2003 $26,300 2002 $25,100 2001 $20,900 Net Revenues and Gains Expenses and Losses Cost of Sales Operating Expenses Other Taxes Net Income Common Shares Outstanding 15,200 3,160 4,570 1,690 $2,880 3,000 12,150 3,075 3,966 2,671 $4,438 3,000 9,845 2,890 3,146 3,318 $5,901 3,000 9,200 2.300 2,214 2,515 $4,671 3,000 Question 2. If we recreate the journal entry that ZonTech made when it sold the stock to GreenSel, there was $2,900,000 dollar gain from the original $5,100,000-dollar investment. The sale of the stock created a $8,000,000-dollar cash inflow for ZonTech. Cash Flow - Sale to GreenSel Debit Credit $ 5,100,000.00 Cost of stock originally Sold Stock to Greensel $ 8,000,000.00 Gain of $ 2,900,000.00 The two companies agreed to sell the stock for $8,000,000.00 dollars but since Greensel was having cash flow problems, they agreed to a five-year payment plan with no interest added. But if we calculate the present value of the note receivable using a typical 15% interest rate, after five years Zontech would then be receiving $9,200,000.00 dollars from Greensel. Which is a $1,200,000.00 dollar gain on the transaction. The 15% interest charge to Greensel would have made ZonTech substantially more money over the five-year payment plan the two companies agreed on
