He also owns a tract of land adjacent to the store used as an extra parking lot when the storeis having a sale and during the Christmas season.

At that time, title will transfer to the son. The store will pay rent to use the land during the interim. The income generated each year from this usage will be given to a local church. The land is currently valued at $320,000.During the first year of this arrangement, the trustee records the following cash transactions:
