Sam would like to see the entry for the receipt of the loan

and the recording of the journal entries on December $31$ for each of the first two years.Stealth Sky Views

Stealth Sky Views $($SSV$)$ is a private company that operates tourist rides from St John's, Newfoundland. Tourists pay for a one$-$hour ride that takes them to Signal Hill and up the coast. Sam, the owner,

has noticed a significant increase in his rider base and is now looking at expanding by purchasing a new plane. Sam is considering several finance options $($Exhibit I$)$ and would like you, his accountant,

to assist him.

Exhibit I

Seaplane Financing Options

The plane Sam wants to buy is expected to cost $$500,000.$ The freight charges to deliver the plane will amount to $$5,000$ and the plane is expected to last $15$ years with proper

maintenance and will have a salvage value of $$20,000.$ Sam depreciates his assets on a straight$-$line basis. Sam would like you to provide the initial recording of the asset. You may

assume that payment will be some form of loan for this portion and that the $$5,000$ delivery will be paid in cash; in other words, it will not be part of the financing. Sam would also like

you to prepare the journal entry to record depreciation for the first year.

Financing Option #$1$

Obtain a $$500,000$ loan from the Royal Bank of Ryan. The loan would be repayable in five equal principal payments plus interest on December $31$ of each year. The loan would carry an

interest rate of $6\%.$ Sam would like to see the entry for the receipt of the loan and the recording of the journal entries on December $31.$

Financing Option #$2$

Issue $$500,000$ of bonds. The bond issue would be developed with a stated rate of $6\%$ and would be a $10-$year bond with interest paid semi$-$annually on June $30$ and December $31.$ The

current market rate for a similar bond is $4\%.$ Sam would like the journal entry for the bond issue and the journal entry for the first two interest payments. SSV would use the effective

interest rate to amortize any bond discount or premium.

Financing Option #$3$

Issue $50,000$ common shares at $$10$ per share to private investors. Sam currently has $100,000$ common shares outstanding, with his wife holding half and Sam holding half. He also

has $5,000$ preferred shares outstanding. They are all owned by his father and are cumulative, paying a dividend of $$4$ per share. For the first time, no dividends were paid last year. It

would be expected that a $$100,000$ dividend would be declared on November $1$ of this year with a payment date of February $1.$ Sam would like the journal entry for the issuance of the

shares and any dividend entries for this year under the assumption the dividend does get declared.
