Additional information from the accounting records:

Investment revenue includes Arduous Company’s $10 million share of the net income of Demur Company, an equity method investee.

Treasury bills were sold during 2018 at a gain of $2 million. Arduous Company classifies its investments in Treasury bills as cash equivalents.

A machine originally costing $78 million that was one-half depreciated was rendered unusable by a flood. Most major components of the machine were unharmed and were sold for $13 million.

Temporary differences between pretax accounting income and taxable income caused the deferred income tax liability to increase by $7 million.

The preferred stock of Tory Corporation was purchased for $29 million as a long-term investment.

Land costing $50 million was acquired by issuing $25 million cash and a 10%, four-year, $25 million note payable to the seller.

The right to use a building was acquired with a 15-year lease agreement; present value of lease payments, $86 million. Annual lease payments of $6 million are paid at the beginning of each year starting January 1, 2018.

$64 million of bonds were retired at maturity.

In February, Arduous issued a stock dividend (5.6 million shares). The market price of the $5 par value common stock was $7.50 per share at that time.

In April, 1 million shares of common stock were repurchased as treasury stock at a cost of $13 million.
