I've been in to the dealer again this morning and talked with Tim Vaughn who seems to be the one person who isn't trying to sell me the biggest, best tractor, and who is friendly in our small town way, answers all my questions, and is just a nice guy.

We could include the $1,000 discount as interest.  That would be a monthly payment to ourselves of $365.75. Of course, if anyone wants to pay into it that would help.

There is also an outstanding loan balance of $5200 on loan B.  We will have a balance in the Development account of $15,121.00 after taking the $20,945.
