Year 1 Assets Cash Building 0 110,000 110,000 Liabilities and Shareholder's equity Long-term debt Shareholders' equity 50,000 60,000 110,000 At the end of Year 1, the building is valued at $150,000. Also, the market value of bonds has fallen to $49,000. Assume the useful life of the building is 30 years, and its salvage value is $50,000 at the end of that period.
