On July 1, 2018, the company adopted a plan to discontinue a division that qualifies as a component of an entity as defined by GAAP. The assets of the component were sold on September 30, 2018, for $102,000 less than their book value. Results of operations for the component (included in the above account balances) were as follows:

1/1/18-9/30/18 2017

In addition to the account balances above, several events occurred during 2018 that have not yet been reflected in the above accounts:

A fire caused $63,000 in uninsured damages to the main office building. The fire was considered to be an infrequent but not unusual event.

Inventory that had cost $53,000 had become obsolete because a competitor introduced a better product. The inventory was sold as scrap for $4,000.

Income taxes have not yet been recorded.
