The following information also is available.

Partial balance sheet information:
12/31/11 12/31/10

4. On December 31, 2011, a piece of land that the company purchased as an investment was sold for $400,000. The land cost Wanless $160,000. Terms of the sale were as follows: $50,000 down payment and the remainder to be paid in seven equal annual installments of $50,000 (plus interest) due each December 31, beginning December 31, 2012.
