Wizards Enterprises loaned P1,000,000 to Washington Inc. on January 1, 2004.

The
terms of the loan require principal payments of P200,000 each year for 5 years plus
interest at 8%. The first principal and interest payment is due on January 1, 2005.
Washington made the required payments during 2005 and 2006. However, during 2006
Washington began to experience financial difficulties, requiring Wizards to reassess the
collectability of the loan. On December 31, 2006, Wizards determines that the remaining
principal payments will be collected, but the collection of interest is unlikely. The
prevailing
interest rate for similar type of note as of December 31, 2006 is 10%.
