As part of the initial investment, Ray Blake contributes equipment that had originally cost $97,300 and on which accumulated depreciation of $72,975 has been recorded. If similar equipment would cost $140,300 to replace and the partners agree on a valuation of $48,800 for the contributed equipment, what amount should be debited to the equipment account

$48,800

Explanation:

the computation of the amount that should be debited to  the equipment account is as follows:

Given that

The cost of an equipment is $97,300

the accumulated depreciation is $72,975

The replacement cost is $140,300

And, the valuation of the equipment is $48,800

So based on the above information, the amount that should be debited is equivalent to the valuation of the equipment i.e. $48,800

forbearance of student loan payments. under forbearance, your loan payments are postponed (or reduced) but interest continues to accrue during the period of forbearance. if you don't pay the interest during that period, the interest may be “capitalized,” which means it is added to your principal balance.
