Question - On January 1, 2019, Wolverine Corporation borrowed $1,450,000 by signing a note from Spartan City Bank. The stated interest rate on the note was 5%, payable annually. The note matures in 5 years, on 12/31/2023. On 12/31/2021, because of recent losses, Wolverine's financial condition has deteriorated, and it is unable to pay the current interest payment of $72,500. Spartan City Bank determined that it would reduce the principal amount to $1,250,000, and waive (forgive) the current interest payment ($72,500). However, annual interest payments will continue to be paid over the 2 remaining years to the maturity date of 12/31/2023 (2 payments total), but will now be at 3% of the revised principal of $1,250,000.
