On that date, Ramp reported assets and liabilities with book values of $2.2 million and $700,000, respectively. A building owned by Ramp had an appraised value of $300,000, although it had a book value of only $120,000. This building had a 12 -year remaining life and no salvage value. It was being depreciated on the straight-line basis. Ramp generated net income of $300,000 in 2020 and a loss of $120,000 in 2021. In each of these two years, Ramp paid a cash dividend of $70,000 to its stockholders. During 2020, Ramp sold inventory to Pond that had an original cost of $60,000.
