The subsidiary immediately borrowed 225,000 pounds on a five-year note with 9 percent interest payable annually beginning on January 1, 2018. The subsidiary then purchased for 319,000 pounds a building that had a 10-year expected life and no salvage value and is to be depreciated using the straight-line method. Also on January 1, 2017, the subsidiary rented the building for three years to a group of local attorneys for 8,850 pounds per month. By year-end, rent payments totaling 88,500 pounds had been received, and 17,700 pounds was in accounts receivable. On October 1, 4,100 pounds was paid for a repair made to the building. The subsidiary transferred a cash dividend of 11,575 pounds back to Sullivan's Island Company on December 31, 2017. The functional currency for the subsidiary is the pound.
