2. The Post, Inc. transferred $60,000 of accounts receivable to the Prudential Bank. The transfer was made with recourse. Prudential remits 90% of the factored amount to The Post, Inc. and retains 10% to cover sales returns and allowances. When the bank collects the receivables, it will remit to The Post, Inc. the retained amount (which The Post, Inc. estimate has a fair value of $5,000). The Post, Inc. anticipates a $3,000 recourse obligation. The bank charges a 2% fee (2% of $60,000), and requires that amount to be paid at the start of the factoring arrangement. Prepare the journal entry to record the transfer on the books of The Post, Inc. assuming the sale criteria are met [8 points)
