a. In late September, Engvall signed a $3,500,000 contract with Hawthorn, Inc. for production and installation of custom machinery at Hawthorn's plant. On December 22, Engvall shipped Hawthorn the completed the machinery, and billed Hawthorn $3,500,000 debiting a receivable and crediting revenue. Engvall also debited COGS and credited inventory for $2,550,000, the cost of producing the machinery. The machinery is of no use to Hawthorn without installation and calibration by Engvall employees. This work had not been begun as of December 31.

b. In August, Engvall signed a lease on an office building to be used for administrative (not manufacturing) purposes. An advance rent payment of $1,000,000 was made and debited to Prepaid Rent.
