Rus purchasing agent who is experienced in the second hand truck market, determined the used trucks have a FMV of $49,000. Also in addition to providing the trucks. Rus most also pay $11,000 cash for the semi truck if the exchange has no commercial substance then what is the incremental impact on net income as compared to one that has a commercial substance? (example: if the 1st exchange had interest expense of $500 with commercial substance but in this one the is no commercial substance and there was $0 of interest expense, your answer would be $500 because net income would be $500 higher without an interest expense charge) Thank you brenda
