On January 1, 2018, A. Hamilton, Inc. (AHI) provides a loan for $3,000,000 to Reynolds Manufacturing Corp. (RMC). The terms of the loan require payment of the loan no later than January 1, 2023. RMC was in terrible financial condition and would cease operations absent securing a loan. Prior to requesting a loan from AHI, RMC exhausted all other possible avenues for funding. The terms of the loan agreement include provisions that require RMC to provide AHI with the following from January 1, 2018 through January 1, 2023: (i) 6 percent annual interest on the principal amount of the loan, which reflects a market rate of interest; (ii) 100 percent participation rights to RMCs profits less $17,000 in a guaranteed annual dividend to RMCs common shareholders; and (iii) complete decision-making authority over RMCs operations and financing decisions. At the end of the term of the loan, AHI is given the right to acquire RMC or, in its discretion, extend the term of the original loan an additional 5 years. At the date the loan was extended to RMC, RMCs common stock had an estimated fair value of $136,000 and a book value of $40,000. The $96,000 difference was attributed to an asset with a 3-year useful life remaining (Asset).
