record the two journal entries that should be recorded by agincourt inc. for the sales transactions above that took place on july 1, 2020.

Sale of land:

Promissory note  Dr $1101460

                           Land                      Cr $590000      

                           Discount on note  Cr $401460

                           Gain on disposal   Cr  $110000

Sale of services:

Promissory note  Dr $400000

                discount on note    Cr $179000

                services rendered  Cr  $221000

Explanation:

For the sale of the land, we have to first dispose of the land and record gain on disposal as the sales proceeds of land are greater than it's book value. Then the promissory note has to be recorded as an asset but the note is issued at a discount (i.e less than the value of land being exchanged so the difference is recorded as a discount received on note, the effect of which will increase income). The entry is as follows:

Promissory note  Dr $1101460

                           Land                      Cr $590000      

                           Discount on note  Cr $401460

                           Gain on disposal   Cr  $110000

The second sale is of rendering of services in exchange for promissory note. Here, Agnicourt Inc. is selling her services instead of any tangible asset in exchange for a promissory note. Similarly, here also the promissory note has been issued at a discount therefore discount on promissory note is also recorded the same way as for the land. The value of services rendered is not mentioned in the question, therefore we assume that services amount to $221000.  The entry is as follows:

Promissory note  Dr $400000

                discount on note    Cr $179000

                services rendered  Cr  $221000

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
