The subsidiary immediately borrowed 146,000 pounds on a five-year note with 10 percent interest payable annually beginning on January 1, 2018.

Also on January 1, 2017, the subsidiary rented the building for three years to a group of local attorneys for 8,200 pounds per month. By year-end, rent payments totaling 82,000 pounds had been received, and 16,400 pounds was in accounts receivable. On October 1, 4,200 pounds was paid for a repair made to the building.
