On June 1, 2017 the Company entered into a construction contract with the LHP Company to construct the new facility for a total cost of $7,500,000. In addition, the Company paid $257,500 in architect fees for the custom design and all planning and construction drawings of the new building. The building was completed and ready for occupancy on June 1, 2018. The building has an expected life of 37 years and will be depreciated using the 200% declining balance method of depreciation.

The YXA Company took a loan in the total amount of $7,500,000 to finance the costs of the new facility. The terms of the loan provide for 25 annual payments of $300,000 plus interest at 7%.

Due to staff relocations and scheduling issues, the building was not actually occupied and did not begin production until December 1, 2018.

Instructions:
