These capital assets had a remaining life of twenty years and no significant anticipated residual value after that time. Inventories had a fair value which was $150,000 less than their book value. These inventories were all sold by the end of 2012. In addition, long-term debt had a fair value that was $170,000 greater than its carrying value. The long-term debt matures on June 30, 2020.
