ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1.

True. Virtually every organization and person in our society uses accounting information. Businesses, investors, creditors, government agencies, and not-for-profit organizations must use accounting information to operate effectively.

LO 1, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

2.

The four most common types of data analytics and the basic question each addresses are: Descriptive (What happened?), Diagnostic (Why did it happen?), Predictive (What is likely to happen?), and Prescriptive (What should we do about it?).

3.

Accounting is the process of identifying, recording, and communicating the economic events of an organization to interested users of the information. The first activity of the accounting process is to identify economic events that are relevant to a particular business. Once identified and measured, the events are recorded to provide a history of the financial activities of the organization. Recording consists of keeping a chronological diary of these measured events in an orderly and systematic manner. The information is communicated through the preparation and distribution of accounting reports, the most common of which are called financial statements. A vital element in the communication process is the accountant’s ability and responsibility to analyze and interpret the reported information.

4.

(a) (b)

Internal users are those who plan, organize, and run the business and therefore are officers and other decision makers. To assist management, accounting provides internal reports. Examples include financial comparisons of operating alternatives, projections of income from new sales campaigns, and forecasts of cash needs for the next year.

5.

(a) (b)

Investors (owners) use accounting information to make decisions to buy, hold, or sell stock. Creditors use accounting information to evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money.

LO 1, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

6.

False. Bookkeeping usually involves only the recording of economic events and therefore is just one part of the entire accounting process. Accounting, on the other hand, involves the entire process of identifying, recording, and communicating economic events.

Harper Travel Agency should report the land at $85,000 on its December 31, 2027 balance sheet. This is true not only at the time the land is purchased, but also over the time the land is held. In determining which measurement principle to use (historical cost or fair value) companies weigh the factual nature of cost figures versus the relevance of fair value. In general, companies use historical cost. Only in situations where assets are actively traded do companies apply the fair value principle.

Questions Chapter 1 (Continued) 8.

The monetary unit assumption requires that only transaction data capable of being expressed in terms of money be included in the accounting records. This assumption enables accounting to quantify (measure) economic events.

LO 2, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Measurement IMA: Reporting

9.

The economic entity assumption requires that the activities of the entity be kept separate and distinct from the activities of its owners and all other economic entities.

10.

The three basic forms of business organizations are (1) proprietorship, (2) partnership, and (3) corporation.

LO 2, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

11.

One of the advantages Juana would enjoy is that ownership of a corporation is represented by transferable shares of stock. This would allow Juana to raise money easily by selling a part of her ownership in the company. Another advantage is that because holders of the shares (stockholders) enjoy limited liability, they are not personally liable for the debts of the corporate entity. Also, because ownership can be transferred without dissolving the corporation, the corporation enjoys an unlimited life.

LO 2, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

12.

The basic accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity.

LO 3, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

13.

(a) (b)

Assets are resources owned by a business. Liabilities are creditor claims against assets—that is, existing debts and obligations. Stockholders’ equity is the ownership claim on total assets. Stockholders’ equity is affected by stockholders’ investments, dividends, revenues, and expenses.

LO 3, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

14.

The liabilities are (b) Accounts Payable and (g) Salaries and Wages Payable.

LO 3, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

15.

Yes, a business can enter into a transaction in which only the left side of the accounting equation is affected. An example would be a transaction where an increase in one asset is offset by a decrease in another asset. An increase in the Equipment account which is offset by a decrease in the Cash account is a specific example.

LO 3, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

16.

Business transactions are the economic events of the enterprise recorded by accountants because they affect the basic accounting equation. (a) No, the death of the president of the company is not a business transaction as it does not affect the basic accounting equation. (b) Yes, supplies purchased on account is a business transaction as it affects the basic accounting equation. (c) No, an employee being fired is not a business transaction as it does not affect the basic accounting equation.

No, this treatment is not appropriate. While the transaction does involve a receipt of cash, it does not represent revenues. Revenues are the gross increase in stockholders’ equity resulting from business activities entered into for the purpose of earning income. This transaction is simply an additional investment made by one of the owners of the business.

Yes. Net income does appear on the income statement—it is the result of subtracting expenses from revenues. In addition, net income appears on the retained earnings statement—it is shown as an addition to the beginning-of-period retained earnings. Indirectly, the net income of a company is also included on the balance sheet. It is included in the end-of-period retained earnings which appears in the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet.

EXERCISE 1.4 Sam Cresco, president of Cresco Company, instructed Sharon Gross, the head of the accounting department, to report the company’s land in their accounting reports at its fair value of $170,000 instead of its cost of $100,000, in an effort to make the company appear to be a better investment. Although we have an accounting system that permits various measurement approaches, historical cost should be used whenever there are questions regarding the reliability of a market value. In this case, valuation of land is too subjective and therefore the historical cost principle should be used. The stakeholders include stockholders and creditors of Cresco Company, potential stockholders and creditors, other users of Cresco accounting reports, Sam Cresco, and Sharon Gross. All users of Cresco’s accounting reports could be harmed by relying on information which violates accounting principles. Sam Cresco could benefit if the company is able to attract more investors, but would be harmed if the fraudulent reporting is discovered. Similarly, Sharon Gross could benefit by pleasing her boss, but would be harmed if the fraudulent reporting is discovered. Sharon’s alternatives are to report the land at $100,000 or to report it at $170,000. Reporting the land at $170,000 is not appropriate since it would mislead many people who rely on Cresco’s accounting reports to make financial decisions. Sharon should report the land at its cost of $100,000. She should try to convince Sam Cresco that this is the appropriate course of action, but be prepared to resign her position if Cresco insists.

The sequence of preparing financial statements is income statement, retained earnings statement, and balance sheet. The interrelationship of the retained earnings statement to the other financial statements results from the fact that net income from the income statement is reported on the retained earnings statement and ending retained earnings reported on the retained earnings statement is the amount reported for retained earnings on the balance sheet.

Continuing Case: Cookie Creations Solution

(a)

Natalie has a choice between a sole proprietorship, partnership, and a corporation. A partnership is not an option since she is the sole owner of the business. A proprietorship is the easiest to create and operate because there are no formal procedures involved in creating the proprietorship. However, if she operates the business as a proprietorship, she will personally have unlimited liability for the debts of the business. Operating the business as a corporation would limit her liability to her investment in the business. Natalie will, in all likelihood, require the services of a lawyer to incorporate. Costs to incorporate as well as additional ongoing costs to administrate and operate the business as a corporation may be costly. My recommendation is that Natalie choose the corporate form of business organization. If she expands the business after graduation, she can raise additional capital by issuing more stock. In addition, she limits her liability to her investment in the business. If she decides to transfer ownership to another student, she can do so without dissolving the corporation.

(b)

Yes, Natalie will need accounting information to help her operate her business. She will need information on her cash balance on a daily or weekly basis to help her determine if she can pay her bills. She will need to know the cost of her services so she can establish her prices. She will need to know revenue and expenses so she can report her net income for corporate income tax purposes, on an annual basis. If she borrows money, she will need financial statements so lenders can assess the profitability of the business. Natalie would also find financial statements useful to better understand her business and identify any financial issues as early as possible. Monthly financial statements would be best because they are more timely, but they are also more work to prepare.

(c)

Assets: Cash, Accounts Receivable, Supplies, Equipment Liabilities: Accounts Payable, Notes Payable Stockholders’ Equity: Common Stock, Retained Earnings, Dividends Revenue: Service Revenue Expenses: Advertising Expense, Supplies Expense, Utilities Expense

(d)

Natalie should have a separate bank account. This will make it easier to prepare financial statements for her business. The business is a separate entity from Natalie and must be accounted for separately.

DECISION–MAKING ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION

The estimate of the $6,100 loss was based on the difference between the $25,000 invested in the driving range and the bank balance of $18,900 at March 31. This is not a valid basis for determining income because it only shows the change in cash between two points in time.

As shown on the balance sheet, the stockholders’ equity at March 31 is $27,450 ($27,700 – $250). The estimate of *$2,450 of net income is the difference between the initial investment of $25,000 and the total stockholders’ equity of $27,450. This was not a valid basis for determining net income because changes in stockholders’ equity between two points in time may have been caused by factors unrelated to net income. For example, there may be dividends and/or additional capital investments by the stockholders. [(Cash + Bldgs. + Equip.) = Accts. pay. + (Com. stk. + Ret. earn.)]

Actual net income for March can be determined by adding dividends to the change in stockholders’ equity during the month as shown below: Stockholders’ equity, March 31, per balance sheet..........................

Add: Dividends .............................................................................. Net income......................................................................................

$27,450 25,000 2,450 1,000 $ 3,450

Alternatively, net income can be found by first determining the revenues earned [described in (d)** below] and then subtracting expenses. (End. stk. equity – Beg, stk. equity + Div.)

(d) Revenues earned can be determined by adding expenses incurred during the month to net income. March expenses were Rent, $1,000; Wages, $400; Advertising, $750; and Utilities, $100 for a total of $2,250. Revenues earned, therefore, were $5,700 ($2,250 + $3,450).

COMMUNICATION ACTIVITY

From: Student’s email address To: Ashley’s email address Subject: Explanation of Balance Sheet Corrections Hi Ashley: I have received the balance sheet of New York Company as of December 31, 2027. A number of items on this balance sheet are not properly reported; a correct balance sheet is attached. Listed below is a summary of the corrections. 1.

The balance sheet should be dated as of a specific date, not for a period of time. Therefore, it should be dated “December 31, 2027.”

2.

Equipment should be shown as an asset and reported below Supplies on the balance sheet.

3.

Accounts receivable should be shown as an asset, not a liability, and reported between Cash and Supplies on the balance sheet.

4.

Accounts payable should be shown as a liability, not an asset. The note payable is also a liability and should be reported in the liability section.

5.

Liabilities and stockholders’ equity should be reported separately on the balance sheet. Common stock is not a liability.

6.

Common stock and retained earnings are part of stockholders’ equity.

ETHICS CASE

The students should identify all of the stakeholders in the case; that is, all the parties that are affected, either beneficially or negatively, by the action or decision described in the case. The list of stakeholders in this case are:  Greg Thorpe, interviewee.  Both Baltimore firms.  Great Northern College.

(b) The students should identify the ethical issues, dilemmas, or other considerations pertinent to the situation described in the case. In this case the ethical issues are:  Is it proper that Greg charged both firms for the total travel costs rather than split the actual amount of $296 between the two firms?  Is collecting $592 as reimbursement for total costs of $296 ethical behavior?  Did Greg deceive both firms or neither firm? (c)

Each student must answer the question for himself/herself. Would you want to start your first job having deceived your employer before your first day of work? Would you be embarrassed if either firm found out that you double-charged? Would your school be embarrassed if your act was uncovered? Would you be proud to tell your professor that you collected your expenses twice?

ETHICS CASE

Students responses to each topic will vary. The responses presented below include points that should appear, in some way, to each topic. a. Yes, companies, specifically the management, should be held accountable for the accuracy of their communications. In fact, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, requires that the top management certify the fairness of the information contained in a company’s financial statements. b. The steps taken to ensure that a company’s financial communications are accurate should include: 1. Hire managers with the appropriate education and experience. 2. Install an accounting information system that will ensure that accounting transactions are recorded and reported accurately. 3. Assuming the company being discussed is a corporation, require the Board of Directors have oversight responsibilities of the reporting system. 4. Hire a CPA firm to conduct an annual audit of the information contained in the annual financial statements. 5. To ensure that interested outside parties receive timely information, issue periodic (quarterly) financial information. c. The comments presented here are based on the following web addresses: https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2018-226; https://www.cnbc.com/2019/03/19/tesla-and-elon-musk-lawsuits-overview.html; https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/02/13/tesla-sec/ A summary of the charges levied against Elon Musk and Tesla and the subsequent settlement include: In 2018, the SEC claimed that Mr. Musk had intentionally tweeted misleading information about Tesla that negatively impacted the stock market. Additionally, the SEC claimed that Tesla failed to have the required disclosure requirements and procedures related to the accuracy of Mr. Musk’s tweets.

CT 1.7 (Continued) In 2019, a settlement was reached that required that: Mr. Musk step down as Tesla’s Chairman. Tesla would appoint two new independent directors to the board. Tesla would create a new committee of independent directors with additional controls and procedures to oversee Mr. Musk’s communications. Both Mr. Musk and Tesla would each pay a $20 million penalty that would be used to compensate harmed investors. In 2020, the SEC issued a subpoena for Tesla financial records due to Mr. Musk making another misleading tweet regarding Tesla’s production estimates that was not approved in advance by securities experts. d. If investors and creditors cannot rely on the accuracy of the information contained in company financial statements then capital markets would, at best, be greatly reduced, or, at worst, cease to exist. Without accurate, reliable information, investors and creditors would be unable to assess the risk of investing or lending. As a result, companies seeking cash inflows from investors/creditors to run and grow their operations, would have to rely solely on the owner(s) personal assets. The result would be to reduce the size of company operations, which would affect employment, and result in a stultifying effect on the economy. LO 1 BT: S Difficulty: Hard TOT: 45.0 min.

ALL ABOUT YOU

Answers to the following will vary depending on students’ opinions. (1) This does not represent the hiding of assets, but rather a choice as to the order of use of assets. This would seem to be ethical. (2) This does not represent the hiding of assets, but rather is a change in the nature of assets. Since the expenditure was necessary, although perhaps accelerated, it would seem to be ethical. (3) This represents an intentional attempt to deceive the financial aid office. It would therefore appear to be both unethical and potentially illegal. (4) This is a difficult issue. By taking the leave, actual net income would be reduced. The form asks the applicant to report actual net income. However, it is potentially deceptive since you do not intend on taking unpaid absences in the future, thus future income would be higher than reported income.

(b)

Companies might want to overstate net income in order to potentially increase the stock price by improving investors’ perceptions of the company. Also, a higher net income would make it easier to receive debt financing. Finally, managers would want a higher net income to increase the size of their bonuses.

(c)

Sometimes companies want to report a lower net income if they are negotiating with employees. For example, professional sports teams frequently argue that they cannot increase salaries because they aren’t making enough money. This also occurs in negotiations with unions. For tax accounting (as opposed to the financial accounting in this course) companies frequently try to minimize the amount of reported taxable income in order to minimize tax payments.

(d)

Unfortunately many times people who are otherwise very ethical will make unethical decisions regarding financial reporting. They might be driven to do this because of greed. Frequently it is because their superiors have put pressure on them to take an unethical action, and they are afraid not to follow directions because they might lose their job. Also, in some instances top managers will tell subordinates that they should be a team player, and do the unethical action because it would help the company, and therefore would help fellow employees.

ALL ABOUT YOU

In this chapter, you saw that there are very specific rules governing the recording of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. However, within these rules there is lot of room for judgment. It would not be at all unusual for two experienced accountants, when faced with identical situations, to arrive at different results. Similarly, in reporting your financial situation for financial aid there is a lot of room for judgment. The question is, what kinds of actions are both permissible and ethical, and what kinds of actions are illegal and unethical? It might be argued that paying off your credit card debt to reduce your assets in order to improve your chances of getting aid is unethical. You did so, however, through a legitimate transaction. In fact, given the high interest rates charged on credit card bills, it would probably be a good idea to use the cash to pay off your bills even if you aren’t applying for aid. Now, consider an alternative situation. Suppose that you have $10,000 in cash, and you have a sibling who is five years younger than you. Should you “give” the cash to your sibling while you are being considered for financial aid? This would give the appearance of substantially reducing your assets, and thus increase the likelihood that you will receive aid. Most people would argue that this is unethical, and it is probably illegal. When completing your FAFSA form, don’t ignore the following warning on the front of the form: “If you get Federal student aid based on incorrect information, you will have to pay it back; you may also have to pay fines and fees. If you purposely give false or misleading information on your application, you may be fined $20,000, sent to prison, or both.” LO 2, 5, BT: E, Difficulty: Moderate, TOT: 15 min., AACSB: Analytic, Communication AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

Challenge Exercise 1 – Solution (Continued) B. In both transactions 4 and 5, stockholders’ equity increases because revenue is earned. In addition, in both transactions, assets increase. Cash is the asset increasing in transaction 4, while accounts receivable is the asset increasing in transaction 5. C. In transactions 7 and 8, stockholders’ equity decreases because an expense is incurred. In transaction 7, the cash is paid at the time the expense is incurred; in transaction 8, cash will not be paid until after the expense is incurred. D. In both transactions 4 and 11, cash is collected from customers for a revenue. In transaction 4, the cash is collected when the work was done for the customer, so the revenue is recorded and stockholders’ equity is increased. In transaction 11, cash is collected before the work is done for the customer, so the firm has an increase in liabilities (they owe the photography work to the customer) instead of an increase in stockholders’ equity.

Challenge Exercise 2 Expands on: E1-10 LO: 4 The total assets and liabilities of Robot Company at January 1 and December 31, 2022 are presented here. January 1 December 31 Assets $76,000 $112,000 Liabilities 26,000 28,800 Instructions: 1. Assume dividends of $10,800 were paid and no additional stock was issued during the year. Revenues were $110,000. Compute (a) net income, and (b) expenses. 2. Assume additional stock was issued for $4,800 and no dividends were paid during the year. Expenses were $42,000. Compute (a) net income, and (b) revenues. 3. Assume additional stock was issued for $62,000 and dividends of $15,600 were paid during the year. Compute net income. 4. Assume additional stock was issued for $6,000, and net income was $51,000. Compute dividends paid. Challenge Exercise 2 – Solution 1. (a) January 1, stockholders’ equity = $76,000 - $26,000 = $50,000. December 31, stockholders’ equity = $112,000 - $28,800 = $83,200. The change in stockholders’ equity = $83,200 - $50,000 = $33,200. $33,200 = Net income + investments by owners - dividends. $33,200 = NI + $0 - $10,800. NI = $44,000. (b) Revenues - expenses = net income. $110,000 - expenses = $44,000. Expenses = $66,000. 2. (a) January 1, stockholders’ equity = $76,000 - $26,000 = $50,000. December 31, stockholders’ equity = $112,000 - $28,800 = $83,200. The change in stockholders’ equity = $83,200 - $50,000 = $33,200. $33,200 = Net income + investments by owners - dividends. $33,200 = NI + $4,800 - $0. NI = $28,400. (b) Revenues - expenses = net income. Revenues - $42,000 = $28,400. Revenues = $70,400. 3. January 1, stockholders’ equity = $76,000 - $26,000 = $50,000. December 31, stockholders’ equity = $112,000 - $28,800 = $83,200. The change in stockholders’ equity = $83,200 - $50,000 = $33,200. $33,200 = Net income + investments by owners - dividends. $33,200 = NI + $62,000 - $15,600. NI = -$13,200. (a net loss). 4. January 1, stockholders’ equity = $76,000 - $26,000 = $50,000. December 31, stockholders’ equity = $112,000 - $28,800 = $83,200. The change in stockholders’ equity = $83,200 - $50,000 = $33,200.
