*59. Brye Co. is indebted to Dole under a $900,000, 12%, three-year note dated December 31,
2002. Because of Brye's financial difficulties developing in 2004, Brye owed accrued
interest of $108,000 on the note at December 31, 2004. Under a troubled debt
restructuring, on December 31, 2004, Dole agreed to settle the note and accrued interest
for a tract of land having a fair value of $810,000. Brye's acquisition cost of the land is
$650,000. Ignoring income taxes, on its 2004 income statement Brye should report as a
result of the troubled debt restructuring

(b) What are the general rules for measuring and recognizing a gain and for recording future
payments by the debtor in a troubled debt restructuring?
14 - 24 Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Eleventh Edition
*Solution 14-68
(a) If the settlement of debt includes the transfer of noncash assets, a gain is measured by the
debtor as the difference between the fair value of the assets transferred and the carrying
amount of the debt, including accrued interest. The debtor also recognizes a gain or loss on
the disposal of assets as the difference between the fair value of the assets transferred and
their book value.
(b) If the carrying amount of the payable is greater than the undiscounted total future cash flows,
the gain is measured by the debtor as the difference between the carrying amount and the
future cash flows. Future payments reduce the principal; no interest expense is recorded by
the debtor.
If the carrying amount of the payable is less than the future cash flows, no restructuring gain
is recognized by the debtor. A new effective interest rate is calculated that equates the
present value of the future cash flows with the carrying amount of the debt. A part of the
future cash flows is recorded as interest expense by the debtor.
