6. | JOINT VENTURE INVESTMENT
On April 4, 2013 (the “acquisition date”), the Company acquired an additional 39 percent ownership interest in Matariki Forestry Group, a joint venture (“JV”) that owns or leases approximately 0.3 million acres of New Zealand timberlands. As a result of the acquisition, Rayonier is a 65 percent owner of the JV and 100 percent of the results of its operations subsequent to April 4, 2013 have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, along with 100 percent of the JV’s assets and liabilities at June 30, 2013. The portions of the consolidated financial position and results of operations attributable to the JV’s 35 percent noncontrolling interest are also shown separately. Rayonier New Zealand Limited (“RNZ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rayonier Inc., continues to serve as the manager of the JV forests and operates a log trading business. The purchase price of the additional interest in the JV was $139.9 million, which included $3.3 million of contingent consideration and was financed through our term credit agreement. As the purchase price was in New Zealand dollars, the Company purchased foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate foreign currency risk on the purchase price. As a result, the Company recorded a benefit of $1.7 million and received that amount upon maturity of the contracts on April 2, 2013. The contingent consideration arrangement required the Company to pay an additional consideration to the JV’s selling (former) shareholders equal to a multiple of the increase in log prices for a six month period beginning in November 2012. We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at the acquisition date to be $3.3 million. Fair value was determined using an average of the cost and freight (CFR) selling price of China A-grade 3.8 meter logs. As of June 30, 2013, the contingent consideration had been determined and paid in the amount of $3.3 million. Prior to the acquisition date, the Company accounted for its 26 percent interest in the JV as an equity method investment. The additional 39 percent interest acquired resulted in the Company obtaining a controlling financial interest in the JV and accordingly, the purchase was accounted for as a step-acquisition. Upon consolidation, the Company recognized a $10.1 million deferred gain, which resulted from the original sale of its New Zealand operations to the joint venture in 2005 and a $6 million benefit due to the required fair market value remeasurement of the Company’s equity interest in the JV held before the purchase of the additional interest. Both gains are included in the line item “Gain related to consolidation of New Zealand joint venture” in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The acquisition-date fair value of the previous equity interest was $93.3 million. We have applied estimates and judgments in order to determine the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. In determining fair value we utilized valuation methodologies including discounted cash flow analysis. The assumptions made in performing these valuations include assumptions as to discount rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity prices. Any significant change in key assumptions may cause the acquisition accounting to be revised. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:
| April 4, 2013
Accounts receivable, net | $ | 9,777 |

(a) Long-term debt included $125.5 million of shareholder loans payable to the noncontrolling interest by the JV. Subsequent to the acquisition date, $96.0 million of the noncontrolling interest’s shareholder loans were converted to preferred equity. The Company’s operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 reflect 26 percent of the JV’s income prior to the acquisition date, as reported in “Equity in income of New Zealand joint venture” in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The amounts of revenue and earnings of the JV included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income from the acquisition date to the period ended June 30, 2013 are as follows:
| Revenue and earnings from April 4, 2013 to June 30, 2013
Sales | $ | 47,426 |
Net Income | 2,076 |
The following represents the pro forma consolidated sales and net income as if the JV had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:
| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
