Problem 1:
The Gadzooks Chip Company offers credit terms to its customers. At the end of 2013, accounts receivable totaled $2,223,000. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $68,000 at the beginning of 2013 and $46,200 in receivables was written off during the year as uncollectible. No previously written off receivables were collected. The company estimates bad debts by applying a percentage of 3% to accounts receivable at the end of the year.
1. Prepare journal entries to record the write-off of receivables.
2. Prepare journal entries to record the year-end adjusting entry for bad debt expense. Show your computation.
3. How would accounts receivable be shown in the 2013 year-end balance sheet?
4. The company made $3,500,000 net credit sales during the year. If the company had used income statement approach to charge 1% of net credit sales to bad debt expense, how would it be recorded in journal entry? Would it have increased or decreased the amount set aside as allowance for uncollectible accounts?
Problem 2:
A. The Fullbright Book Company transferred $200,000 of accounts receivable to the American Trust Bank. The transfer was made without recourse. American Trust remits 90% of the factored amount and retains 10% (Fullbright estimates the fair value of that 10% to be $15,000). When the bank collects the receivables, it will remit to Fullbright the retained amount less a 1% fee (1% of the total factored amount).
Prepare the journal entry to record the transfer on the books of Fullbright assuming that the sale criteria are met.
B. The Fullbright Book Company transferred $200,000 of accounts receivable to the American Trust Bank. The transfer was made with recourse. American Trust remits 90% of the factored amount and retains 10% (Fullbright estimates the fair value of that 10% to be $12,000). When the bank collects the receivables, it will remit to Fullbright the retained amount less a 1% fee (1% of the total factored amount). Fullbright anticipates a $4,000 recourse obligation.
Prepare the journal entry to record the transfer on the books of Fullbright assuming that the "sale" criteria are met.
C. On March 1, 2016, the Fullbright Book Company assigns $200,000 of accounts receivable to the American Trust Bank as collateral for an $160,000 loan due in six months. Fullbright will continue to collect the receivables. American Trust assesses a finance charge of 2% of the accounts receivable at the initiation of the loan; interest on the loan is 8%, payable six months later.
1. Prepare the March 1, 2016 journal entry for Fullbright.
2. Prepare the journal entry for Fullbright when it pays back the loan with interest on Aug 31, 2016.
Problem 3:
The December 31, 2016, year-end inventory balance of the Delphi Printing Company is $517,000. You have been asked to review the following transactions to determine if they have been correctly recorded.
1. Materials purchased from a supplier and shipped to Delphi f.o.b. destination on December 28, 2016, were received on January 2, 2017. The invoice cost of $50,000 is not included in the preliminary inventory balance.
2. At year-end, Delphi had $12,000 of merchandise on consignment from the Harvey Company. This merchandise is included in the preliminary inventory balance.
3. On December 29, merchandise costing $17,000 was shipped to a customer f.o.b. shipping point and arrived at the customer's location on January 3, 2017. The merchandise is not included in the preliminary inventory balance.
4. Materials purchased from a supplier and shipped to Delphi f.o.b. shipping point on December 28, 2016 were received on January 4, 2017. The invoice cost of $32,000 is not included in the preliminary inventory balance.
Determine the correct inventory amount to be reported on Delphi's 2016 balance sheet.
Problem 4:
The following transactions affected Alpenrose Corporation's merchandise inventory during the month of March, 2016:
March 1 - Inventory on hand - 3,000 units; cost $8.00 each.
March 8 - Purchased 5,000 units for $8.40 each on account.
March 14 - Sold 4,000 units for $14.00 each on account.
March 18 - Purchased 6,000 units for $8.20 each on account.
March 25 - Sold 7,000 units for $14.00 each on account.
March 31 - Inventory on hand - 3,000 units.
Part 1. Prepare the journal entries to record the purchase of March 8 and the sale of March 14 under both periodic and perpetual inventory systems (when using the perpetual system, prepare the journal entries under both FIFO and LIFO).
Part 2.Assume Alpenrose uses perpetual inventory system. Determine the inventory balance Alpenrose would report on its March 31, 2016, balance sheet and the cost of goods sold it would report on its March, 2016, income statement using each of the following cost flow methods:
1. First-in, first-out (FIFO)
2. Last-in, first-out (LIFO)
Part 3.Assume Alpenrose uses periodic inventory system. Determine the inventory balance Alpenrose would report on its March 31, 2016, balance sheet and the cost of goods sold it would report on its March, 2016, income statement using each of the following cost flow methods:
1. First-in, first-out (FIFO)
2. Last-in, first-out (LIFO)
3. Average cost
Problem 5:
On January 1, 2013, the Delbridge Company adopted the dollar-value LIFO method for its one inventory pool. The pool's value on this date was $832,000. The later years' ending inventory valued at year-end costs and the appropriate cost indexes are shown in the following table.
Calculate the inventory value at the end of 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016 using the dollar-value LIFO method.
