1. On January 1, the company issued 10,000 common shares for $250,000.
2. On January 2, the company borrowed $50,000 from the bank.
3. On January 3, the company purchased land and a building for a total of $200,000 cash. The land was recently appraised at a fair market value of $60,000. (Because the building will be depreciated in the future and the land will not, these two assets should be recorded in separate accounts.)

5. Sales to customers totalled $205,000. Of these, $175,000 were sales on account.

11. The building was estimated to have a useful life of 30 years and a residual value of $20,000. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation.
