Brony's Bikes' long$-$term liabilities consist of the following:

$10\%$ mortgage note payable to Dallas Dollar Bank $-$ $$60$ million; and

$12\%$ note payable to Bank Two $-$ $$45$ million.

Ignore the long$-$term deferred income tax liability arising from the difference between book depreciation and depreciation for income tax purposes. In this case, the deferred income tax liability account will not be adjusted.

In $20$X$4,$ Brony's Bikes upgraded its manufacturing facilities at a cost of $$150$ million. The project was financed by issuing $2$ million shares of common stock at $$25$ per share, and by issuing a $$100$ million $10\%$ mortgage note payable to Dallas Dollar Bank. The mortgage agreement requires repayment in ten annual installments of $$10$ million each. Interest on the unpaid principal is payable on the first day of each month. The principal installments are due on January $1.$ The next payment is due on $1/1/$Y$0.$

The $12\%$ note payable to Bank Two was issued to alleviate the effects of the liquidity problems encountered in $20$X$9.$ This note is unsecured and requires repayment in ten equal annual installments. Unlike the Dollar Bank mortgage loan, interest on the Bank Two loan is payable annually. The first principal installment, together with interest, is due on $3/1/$X$0.$ This note contains restrictive covenants, as described earlier, relating to a $$10$ million compensating balance requirement and restrictions regarding further borrowing and dividend payments. Derick has asked that you analyze the long$-$term notes payable, being particularly alert to any violations of the restrictive covenants contained in the Bank Two loan agreement.
