CHAPTER 2 ANALYZING TRANSACTIONS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

An account is a form designed to record changes in a particular asset, liability, owner’s equity, revenue, or expense. A ledger is a group of related accounts.

2.

The terms debit and credit may signify either an increase or a decrease, depending upon the nature of the account. For example, debits signify an increase in asset and expense accounts but a decrease in liability, owner’s equity, and revenue accounts.

3.

a. b.

Assuming that no errors have occurred, the credit balance in the cash account resulted from drawing checks for $1,850 in excess of the amount of cash on deposit. The $1,850 credit balance in the cash account as of December 31 is a liability owed to the bank. It is usually referred to as an “overdraft.”

4.

a. b.

5.

No. Errors may have been made that had the same erroneous effect on both debits and credits, such as failing to record and/or post a transaction, recording the same transaction more than once, and posting a transaction correctly but to the wrong account.

6.

Recording $9,800 instead of the correct amount of $8,900 is a transposition. Recording $100 instead of the correct amount of $1,000 is a slide.

7.

a. b.

The revenue was earned in October. (1) Debit Accounts Receivable and credit Fees Earned or another appropriately titled revenue account in October. (2) Debit Cash and credit Accounts Receivable in November.

No. Because the same error occurred on both the debit side and the credit side of the trial balance, the trial balance would not be out of balance. Yes. The trial balance would not balance. The error would cause the debit total of the trial balance to exceed the credit total by $90.

8.

a. b.

The equality of the trial balance would not be affected. On the income statement, total operating expenses (salary expense) would be overstated by $7,500, and net income would be understated by $7,500. On the statement of owner’s equity, the beginning and ending owner’s capital would be correct. The understatement of net income understates owner’s equity by $7,500, while the understatement of withdrawals overstates owner’s equity by $7,500. Thus, ending owner’s equity is correct. The balance sheet is not affected by the error.

9.

a. b.

The equality of the trial balance would not be affected. On the income statement, revenues (fees earned) would be overstated by $300,000, and net income would be overstated by $300,000. On the statement of owner’s equity, the beginning capital would be correct. However, net income and ending capital would be overstated by $300,000. The balance sheet total assets is correct. However, liabilities (notes payable) is understated by $300,000, and owner’s equity is overstated by $300,000. The understatement of liabilities is offset by the overstatement of owner’s equity, and thus, total liabilities and owner’s equity is correct.

10.

a. b.

From the viewpoint of Surety Storage, the balance of the checking account represents an asset. From the viewpoint of Ada Savings Bank, the balance of the checking account represents a liability.

No. An error may not have necessarily occurred. A credit balance in Accounts Receivable could occur if a customer overpaid his or her account. Regardless, the credit balance should be investigated to verify that an error has not occurred.

Ex. 2-10 a.

The increase of $140,000 ($515,000 – $375,000) in the cash account does not indicate net income of that amount. Net income is the excess of revenues over expenses and is normally not the same as the change in the cash account.

These two entries could have been combined into one entry; however, preparing two entries makes it easier for someone later to understand what happened and why the entries were necessary. 2-20 © 2021 Cengage Learning, Inc.

Analyzing Transactions

Ex. 2-24 a.

1.

Revenue: $12,551 million increase ($141,576 – $129,025) 9.7% increase ($12,551 ÷ $129,025)

2.

Operating expenses: $12,182 million increase ($137,096 – $124,914) 9.8% increase ($12,182 ÷ $124,914)

3.

Operating income: $369 million increase ($4,480 – $4,111) 9.0% increase ($369 ÷ $4,111)

b.

During the recent year, revenue increased by 9.7%, while operating expenses increased by 9.8%. As a result, operating income increased by 9.0% from the prior year.

c.

Because of the size differences between Target and Costco (Costco has more than 1.8 times the revenue), it is best to compare the two companies on the basis of percent changes from the prior year. Costco’s revenues increased by 9.7%, while Target’s revenue increased by 3.6%. The expenses of Costco increased by 9.8%, which is slightly more than the percentage increase in revenues. As a result, Costco’s operating income increased by 9.0%. Target’s expenses increased by 4.0%, which is less than the percentage increase in revenues. As a result, Target’s operating income decreased by 2.7%. Overall, Costco had a better operating performance than Target.

Some supplies may have been used during June, but no supplies expense has been recorded. As will be discussed in Chapter 3, adjustments are necessary at the end of the accounting period to bring the accounts up to date. For example, adjustments for supplies used, insurance expired, and depreciation would probably be required by Whitworth Designs. Note to Instructors: At this point, students have not been exposed to depreciation, but some insightful students might recognize the need for recording supplies used and insurance expired. You might use this as an opportunity to discuss what is coming in Chapter 3.

Some supplies may have been used during October, but no supplies expense has been recorded. As will be discussed in Chapter 3, adjustments are necessary at the end of the accounting period to bring the accounts up to date. For example, adjustments for supplies used, insurance expired, and depreciation would probably be required by Pioneer Designs. Note to Instructors: At this point, students have not been exposed to depreciation, but some insightful students might recognize the need for recording supplies used and insurance expired. You might use this as an opportunity to discuss what is coming in Chapter 3.

CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

CASES & PROJECTS CP 2-1 1.

No. For financial accounting information to be useful, it must accurately reflect an entity’s business transactions and economic activity. For this to happen, each account must reflect the increases or decreases that result from each transaction. If the trial balance does not balance, it means that a transaction has not been accurately recorded in the accounts. By knowingly submitting a trial balance that does not accurately reflect the transactions in the accounts, Buddy is demonstrating a failure of individual character and is acting unethically.

2.

The users of the financial information who rely on this information will be affected, as the information will not be a faithful representation of the entity’s economic activity.

3.

Buddy should have discussed the issue with his supervisor and asked for more time to find the error.

CP 2-2 A sample solution based on Nike Inc.’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018, follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

$22,536 million $12,724 million ($6,040 + $3,468 + $3,216) $9,812 million ($22,536 million on total assets – $12,724 million total liabilities) 3 2 The income statement reports a summary of revenues and expenses for a specific period of time, such as a month or a year. The balance sheet reports a list of assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity as of a specific date, usually at the close of the last day of a month or a year.

CP 2-3 1.

The rules of debit and credit must be memorized. Dot is correct in that the rules of debit and credit could be reversed as long as everyone accepted and abided by the rules. However, the important point is that everyone accepts the rules as the way in which transactions should be recorded. This generates uniformity across the accounting profession and reduces errors and confusion. Because the current rules of debit and credit have been used for centuries, Dot should adapt to the current rules of debit and credit, rather than devise her own. The primary reason that all accounts do not have the same rules for increases and decreases is for control of the recording process. The double-entry accounting system, which includes (1) the rules of debit and credit and (2) the accounting equation, guarantees that (1) debits always equal credits and (2) assets always equal liabilities plus owner’s equity. If all increases in the account were recorded by debits, then the control that debits always equal credits would be removed. In addition, the control that the normal balance of 2-66 © 2021 Cengage Learning, Inc. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.


CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

CP 2-3 (Concluded) assets is a debit would also be removed. The accounting equation would still hold, but the control over recording transactions would be weakened. Dot is correct that we could call the left and right sides of an account different terms, such as “LE” and “RE.” Again, centuries of tradition dictate the current terminology used. One might note, however, that in Latin, debere (debit) means “left” and credere (credit) means “right.” 2.

The accounting system may be designed to capture information about the buying habits of various customers or vendors, such as the quantity normally ordered, average amount ordered, and number of returns. Thus, in a sense, there can be other “sides” of (information about) a transaction that are recorded by the accounting system. Such information would be viewed as supplemental to the basic double-entry accounting system.

CP 2-4 Note to Instructors: The purpose of this activity is to familiarize students with the job opportunities available in accounting and allow them to demonstrate their ability to communicate the role of accounting in the context of a specific position that requires knowledge of accounting. An example of an advertisement for such a position is shown below. Individual student answers will vary depending on the specific scenario they select. ABOUT THE COMPANY Our client is looking to add a Financial Analyst. With a large and growing finance team, there is significant opportunity for growth and advancement within the department. The company boasts a team-oriented culture and provides its employees with the tools and training necessary to perform.

CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

CP 2-5 The following general journal entry should be used to record the receipt of tuition payments received in advance of classes: Cash…………………………………………………………………… Unearned Tuition Deposits……………………………………

XXX XXX

Cash is an asset account, and Unearned Tuition Deposits is a liability account. As the classes are taught throughout the term, the unearned tuition deposits become earned revenue. The entry to record the earned portion of tuition will be: Unearned Tuition Deposits………………………………………… Earned Tuition Deposits…………………………………………

XXX XXX

CP 2-6 The journal is called the book of original entry. It provides a time-ordered history of the transactions that have occurred for the firm. This time-ordered history is very important because it allows one to trace ledger account balances back to the original transactions that created those balances. This is called an “audit trail.” If the firm recorded transactions by posting to ledgers directly, it would be nearly impossible to reconstruct actual transactions. The debits and credits would all be separated and accumulated into the ledger balances. Once the transactions become part of the ledger balances, the original transactions would be lost. That is, there would be no audit trail, and any errors that might occur in recording transactions would be almost impossible to trace. Thus, firms first record transaction debits and credits in a journal. These transactions are then posted to the ledger to update the account balances. The journal and ledger are linked using posting references. This allows an analyst to trace the transaction flow forward or backward, depending on the need.

Note to Instructors: Students may have prepared slightly different income statements, depending upon the titles of the major expense classifications chosen. Regardless of the classification of expenses, however, the total sales, total expenses, and net income should be as presented above. T accounts are not required for the preparation of the income statement of Eagle Caddy Service. The following presentation illustrates one solution using T accounts. Alternative solutions are possible if students used different accounts. In presenting the following T account solution, instructors may wish to emphasize the advantages of using T accounts (or a journal and four-column accounts) when a large number of transactions must be recorded.

$6,265, computed in the following manner: Cash receipts: Initial investment…………………………………………………… $2,000 Cash sales ($5,400 + $4,200)……………………………………… 9,600 Collections on accounts…………………………………………… 1,500 Total cash receipts during June………………………………

$13,100

Cash disbursements: Rent expense ($500 + $3,000)…………………………………… $3,500 Supplies purchased for cash……………………………………… 750 Wages expense……………………………………………………… 850 Payment for supplies on account……………………………… 1,000 Utilities expense…………………………………………………… 340 395 Miscellaneous expense…………………………………………… Total cash disbursements during June…………………… Cash on hand according to records*………………………………

6,835 $ 6,265

* If the student used T accounts in completing part (b), or this part, this amount ($6,265) should agree with the balance of the cash account.

d. The difference of $90 ($6,265 – $6,175) between the cash on hand according to records ($6,265) and the cash on hand according to the count ($6,175) could be due to many factors, including errors in the record keeping and withdrawals made by Cory.

CHAPTER 3 THE ADJUSTING PROCESS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

a.

Under cash-basis accounting, revenues are reported in the period in which cash is received and expenses are reported in the period in which cash is paid.

b.

Under accrual-basis accounting, revenues are reported in the period in which they are earned and expenses are reported in the same period as the revenues to which they relate.

2.

The matching concept is related to the accrual basis of accounting.

3.

Adjusting entries are needed at the end of an accounting period to bring the ledger up to date.

4.

Adjusting entries bring the ledger up to date as a normal part of the accounting cycle. Correcting entries correct errors in the ledger.

5.

Four different categories of adjusting entries include prepaid expenses (deferred expenses), unearned revenues (deferred revenues), accrued expenses (accrued liabilities), and accrued revenues (accrued assets).

6.

Statement (a): Increases the balance of a revenue account.

7.

Statement (b): Increases the balance of an expense account.

8.

Yes, because every adjusting entry affects expenses or revenues.

9.

a.

The rights acquired represent an asset.

b.

The justification for debiting Rent Expense is that when the ledger is summarized in a trial balance at the end of the month and statements are prepared, the rent will have become an expense. Hence, no adjusting entry will be necessary.

a.

The portion of the cost of a fixed asset deducted from revenue of the period is debited to Depreciation Expense. It represents the cost of the fixed asset that has been expensed in generating revenue during the period. The reduction in the fixed asset account is recorded by a credit to Accumulated Depreciation rather than to the fixed asset account. The use of the contra asset account facilitates the presentation of original cost and accumulated depreciation on the balance sheet.

b.

Depreciation Expense—debit balance; Accumulated Depreciation—credit balance.

c.

No. It is not customary for the balances of the two accounts to be equal in amount.

d.

Depreciation Expense appears on the income statement; Accumulated Depreciation appears on the balance sheet.

Ex. 3-8 a.

Salary expense (or expenses) will be overstated because two days of salaries that should have been included as October expenses are being recorded in November. Net income will be understated.

b.

The balance sheet will be correct. This is because salaries payable has been paid, and the net income errors for October and November have offset each other. Thus, owner’s equity (owner’s capital account) is correct.

No. Depreciation is an allocation of the cost of the equipment to the periods benefiting from its use. It does not necessarily relate to value or loss of value.

Ex. 3-20 a.

$29,460 million ($58,683 – $29,223)

b.

No. Depreciation is an allocation method, not a valuation method. That is, depreciation allocates the cost of a fixed asset over its useful life. Depreciation does not attempt to measure market values, which may vary significantly from year to year.

3.

The accountant credited the prepaid insurance account for $3,600, but debited the insurance expense account for only $600.

4.

The accountant credited Laundry Equipment for the depreciation expense of $13,000 instead of crediting the accumulated depreciation account.

5.

The accountant did not debit Wages Expense for $1,000.
