7.   LOSS ON DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

 

In January 2010, and in accordance with Minnesota Statute 240, the Company obtained approval from the MRC to remodel its existing card room.  Construction and architectural contracts with various firms were signed shortly thereafter, and the card room was moved to a temporary location on the mezzanine level on January 25, 2010.  The Company used cash on hand to fund the project and avoided drawing on its line of credit.  As part of the remodeling project, the Company disposed of assets during the first quarter of 2010 with an original cost of $2,354,619 and associated accumulated depreciation of $1,445,079, resulting in a loss on disposal of $909,540.  The remodeling project was completed during the second quarter of 2010 and on April 14, 2010, Canterbury Park opened its new Card Casino.
