8. Since this is the first year of operations and there were $270,000 of accounts receivable collected, one must compute total sales to determine the ending balance in accounts receivable. Cost of goods sold is $300,000 assuming the accounts payable are for inventory (the $350,000 constitutes only payments made for purchases). Since the markup is 40% on cost, the sales are $420,000 ($300,000 x 140%). Sales of $420,000 less collections of $270,000 results in an ending accounts receivable balance of $150,000 as calculated below. Cash purchases A/P balance $350,000 60,000 Total purchases 410,000 Ending inventory 110,000 Cost of goods sold 300,000 x 140% Sales 420,000 Less collections 270,000 Ending A/R $150,000 9.

ANSWER KEY Section 1 Multiple Choice Questions 1.b 2.a 3.b 4..d 5. (a) There are basically two methods of recognizing bad debt expense: (1) direct write-off and (2) allowance. The direct write-off method requires the identification of specific balances that are deemed to be uncollectible before any bad debt expense is recognized. At the time a specific account is deemed uncollectible, the account is removed from accounts receivable and a corresponding amount of bad debt expense is recognized. The allowance method requires an estimate of bad debt expense for a period of time by reference to the composition of the accounts receivable balance at a specific point in time (aging) or to the overall experience with credit sales over a period of time. Thus, total bad debt expense expected to arise as a result of operations for a specific period is estimated, the valuation account (allowance for doubtful accounts) is appropriately adjusted, and a corresponding amount of bad debt expense is recognized. As specific accounts are identified as uncollectible, the account is written off. It is removed from accounts receivable and a corresponding amount is removed from the valuation account (allowance for doubtful accounts). Net accounts receivable do not change, and there is no charge to bad debt expense when specific accounts are identified as uncollectible and written off using the allowance method. (b) The allowance method is preferable because it matches the cost of making a credit sale with the revenues generated by the sale in the same period and achieves a proper carrying value for accounts receivable at the end of a period. Since the direct write-off method does not recognize the bad debt expense until a specific amount is deemed uncollectible, which may be in a subsequent period, it does not comply with the matching principle and does not achieve a proper carrying value for accounts receivable at the end of a period. 6.

The company an expense account and credited cash on the purchase date entire cost of the asset. (Straight-line method)
2. During 2005, Rand changed from the straight-line method of depreciating its cement plant to the double-declining-balance method. The following computations present depreciation on both bases: 2005 30,000 38,500 2004 30,000 50,000 2003 30,000 60,000
Straight-line Double-declining
The net income for 2005 was computed on the doubledeclining-balance method. 3. Rand, in reviewing its provision for uncollectibles during 2005,has determined that 1% is the appropriate amount of bad debt expense to be charged to operations. The company had used 1/2 of 1% as its rate in 2004 and 2003 when the expense had been $15,000 and $10,000, respectively. The company recorded bad
65
debt expense under the new rate for 2005. The company would have recorded $5,000 less of bad debt expense on December 31, 2005 under the old rate.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board was established because many groups interested in financial reporting believed that the Accounting Principles Board was not effective. Discuss the apparent advantages that the FASB should have over its earlier counterpart, the APB. 5. Presented below are four independent, unrelated statements regarding the formulation of generally accepted accounting principles. Each statement contains some incorrect or debatable statement(s). Statement I The users of financial accounting statements have coinciding and conflicting needs for statements of various types. To meet these needs, and to satisfy the financial reporting responsibility of management, accountants prepare different sets of financial statements for different users. Statement II The FASB should be responsive to the needs and viewpoints of the entire economic community, not just the public accounting profession. The FASB therefore will succeed because it will deal effectively with all interested groups. Statement III Due to some well-publicized instances of corporate fraud, domestic and foreign bribery, and sudden bankruptcies, the Congress of the United States began in the mid-seventies to inquire into the structure and practices of the accounting profession and the accounting and auditing standard-setting process. As a consequence of these investigations and reports submitted by the committees, the government has now
67
(1) assumed full responsibility through the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the development and enforcement of financial accounting and reporting standards and (2) assumed full responsibility through the General Accounting Office (GAO) for the development and enforcement of auditing standards. Statement IV The Securities and Exchange Commission is very concerned about financial reporting and has formulated a committee called the Accounting Standards Executive Committee (AcSEC) to provide input to the FASB. In addition, after each FASB Statement is issued, the AcSEC issues Statements of Position stating its position on the FASB statement. INSTRUCTIONS Evaluate each of the independent statements and identify the areas of fallacious reasoning in each. Explain why the reasoning is incorrect. Complete your discussion of each statement before proceeding to the next statement. 6. Yates Company's records provide the following information concerning certain account balances and changes in these account balances during the current year.

Question 1
a. A partnership is a union of two or more individuals associated in a joint profit-making endeavour. Certain characteristics of a partnership distinguish it from both a sole proprietorship and a corporation. A partner can act in the name of the enterprise and, in this capacity, bind his or her fellow partners to contracts and agreements. The partnership often offers an advantage over the sole proprietorship in that greater amounts of capital may be accumulated and various personal skills may be pooled. Unlike a corporation, a partnership lacks continuous life and imposes unlimited personal liability on the partners for partnership debts. In many instances, partnership interests cannot be easily transferred. A partnership can be formed and dissolved more easily than a corporation. From a tax standpoint, the general rule is that partnerships are not subject to income tax; rather, each partners share of partnership net income is included in determining the tax levied against the partner, whether or not the partnership income is distributed to the partners in the form of asset withdrawals. Corporations, on the other hand, are subject to income tax. In addition, dividend payments are possible in a corporation and are included in determining the shareholders taxable income at a different rate than salary payments. Furthermore, dividends do not reduce corporate taxable income. b. The CICA Handbook requires the following disclosures in the financial statements of a partnership:
name of the partnership and all partners; the fact that the business is not incorporated
and that the financial statements do not include personal assets and liabilities of the partners; salaries/interest paid to partners, if any, or a disclosure note that states that no salaries/interest were charged against income; a disclosure note stating that no income taxes were charged in the statements; and a schedule showing how the owner equity changed during the period, by source. c. There may be tax advantages to operating a business as a partnership when profit levels are low because partnership profits are taxed at personal tax rates that are lower than for corporations at low income levels. d. A limited partnership is one with two classes of partners: 1. One or more general partners, with unlimited liability and an active role in management.
72
2. Limited partners, whose liability is limited to their initial investment, but whose role in management is passive. Limited partnerships are often formed for real estate investments that have a positive cash flow, but that report a loss after amortization of the real estate. Limited partners can claim their share of the resulting loss, up to the extent of their at-risk amount or cost of their investment, to reduce their taxable income, without any fear of unlimited personal liability. e. Partners have a mutual agency relationship, in that any partner can commit the partnership and thus, all the partners to legal contracts. Partners are thus agents for each other while they are partners. Since they have unlimited personal liability for the debts and liabilities of the partnership, this agency relationship is obviously very significant. A partners authority to contract may be limited by an agreement between the partners, but third parties must be made aware of any restriction before it is effective. f. Payments to employees are classified as an expense when following the proprietary view of the firm. They are classified as a distribution of earnings under the entity view.

4. Convertible debt is treated solely as debt. One reason is that the debt and conversion option are inseparable. The holder cannot sell one and retain the other. The two choices are mutually exclusive.
80
Another reason is that the valuation of the conversion option or the debt security without the conversion option is subjective because these values are not established separately in the marketplace. When debt is issued with stock warrants, the warrants are given separate recognition. After issue, the debt and the detachable warrants trade separately. The proceeds may be allocated to the two elements based on the relative fair values of the debt security without the warrants and the warrants at the time of issuance. The proceeds allocated to the warrants should be accounted for as paid-in capital. 5. (a) Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income less preferred dividends by the weighted average of common shares outstanding. (b) A complex capital structure exists when a corporation has convertible securities, options, warrants or other rights that upon conversion or exercise could dilute earnings per share. (c) Basic earnings per share is earnings per share computed based on the common shares outstanding during the period. (d) Diluted earnings per share is earnings per share computed based on common stock and all dilutive potentially common shares that were outstanding during the period. 6. 1.Bonds Payable ................. 6,000,000 Premium on Bonds Payable ...... 525,000 Common Stock ................. 4,800,000 Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par . 1,725,000 2.Cash ...........................

The lessor records the gross amounts of the minimum lease payments(excluding executory costs) and the unguaranteed residual value (a guaranteed residual value is included in the minimum lease payments) as Lease Receivable and removes the asset from the books. The lessor records payments received as a reduction in the receivable. Interest revenue is recognized by using the effective interest method. The implicit interest rate is applied to the declining balance of the Lease Receivable balance. The implicit rate is the rate of interest that will discount the gross minimum lease payments (excluding executory costs) and the unguaranteed residual value to the fair value of the asset the inception of the lease. 5. (a) It is a sales-type lease to the lessor, Silas Corp. Silas's (the manufacturer) profit upon sale is $60,000, which is recognized in the year of sale (2004). It is not an operating lease because title to the assets passes to the lessee, the present value ($600,000) of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90%($540,000) of the fair value of the leased trailers, collectibility is reasonably assured, and no important uncertainties surround the amount of unreimbursable costs yet to be incurred by the lessor. The remaining accounting treatment is similar to that accorded a direct financing lease. (b) ($60,000 x 10) 4.62288 = $129,789.

The lease contains a bargain purchase option which satisfies one of the criteria for classification as a direct financing lease. The option to buy for $8,000,000 at the termination of the lease when the asset is expected to have a fair value of $14,000,000 constitutes a bargain purchase option. Additionally, the payments are collectible, and there are no uncertainties as to future lessor costs.

5. (a) Accounting estimates will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, or new information is obtained. Examples of changes in estimate are: (a) collectibility of receivables, (b) inventory obsolescence, (c) estimated lives or residual values, and (d) warranty costs. Changes in estimates are handled prospectively; that is, in current and future periods. No restatement of previous financial statements is made. (b) A change in accounting entity results in financial statements of a different entity. Examples of changes in entity are: (a) consolidated statements replacing individual statements, (b) different subsidiaries in the group for which consolidated statements are presented, (c) different companies included in combined financial statements, and (d) a pooling of interests. The financial statements of all prior periods presented should be restated to show the financial information for the new reporting entity for all periods. (c) Examples of accounting errors are: (a) a change from an accounting principle that is not generally accepted to an accounting principle that is accepted, (b) mathematical mistakes, (c) changes in estimates that occur because the estimates are not made in good faith, (d) an oversight, (e) a misuse of facts, and (f) misclassification of an asset as an expense or vice versa. Corrections of errors are recorded in the year discovered, are treated as prior period adjustments, and the beginning balance of retained earnings is adjusted. 6.

The APB was a senior committee of the AICPA, whereas the FASB is not an organ of any single professional organization. It is appointed by and answerable only to the Financial Accounting Foundation. 4. Increased independence. APB members retained their private positions with firms, companies, or institutions. FASB members must sever all such ties. 5. Broader representation. All APB members were required to be CPAs and members of the AICPA. Currently, it is not necessary to be a CPA to be a member of the FASB. 5. Statement I

It is true that users of financial accounting statements have coinciding and conflicting needs for statements of various types. However, to meet these needs, accountants generally prepare a single set of general-purpose financial statements, rather than a number of different types of financial statements. It may be argued that accountants often do prepare special statements for particular purposes, but in general the accounting profession has relied on general purpose financial statements prepared in conformance with generally accepted accounting principles. Statement II It is true that the FASB should be responsive to the needs of the entire economic community, not just the public accounting profession. However, it is not clear whether the FASB will succeed. The FASB will have the best chance of survival if it deals with problems promptly, sets proper priorities, takes whatever action it thinks is right and in the public interest, and handles pressures responsibly without overreacting to them. Statement III The first sentence of Statement III is correct in that during the mid-seventies Congress, through the Moss and Metcalf Committees, did make inquiries into the accounting profession's practices and the accounting and auditing standardsetting process. In fact, the reports submitted by these committees contained some incorrect conclusions and some very strong remedies, but the government has not assumed responsibility for either accounting or auditing standard-setting or their enforcement. Instead, the accounting profession has taken significant steps to overcome the criticisms which emanated from the congressional inquiries and has retained in the private sector both the accounting and auditing tandards-setting functions. At the present time the government appears willing to permit the accounting profession to develop its own standards and to regulate itself with minimal intervention. The AICPA formed the Special Committee on Financial Reporting in 1991. The Committee's charge was to recommend (1) the nature of information that should be made available to others by management and (2) the extent to which auditors should report on the various elements of that information. The Committee's report was made in October 1994. Statement IV The Accounting Standards Executive Committee (AcSEC) was established within the American Institute of Certified Public
92
Accountants, not the Securities and Exchange Commission, to respond to pronouncements of the FASB. The AcSEC does issue Statements of Position, but issues them before the FASB sets standards on the issue. 6. 1.

Lesson 20
MChoice 1 c 2 c 3 c 4. (a) The BASIC ARGUMENT for the publication of financial forecasts in corporate annual reports is to provide the investor with additional information about the future activities of the company upon which to base investment decisions. A SECOND ARGUMENT is that some investors have access to the forecast data currently; it would be more equitable if all investors had access to such information. The attestation by the CPA to such
94
forecast data would provide the forecast data with reliability and permit the investor to have confidence in the forecast. A THIRD ARGUMENT is that circumstances now change so rapidly that historical information is no longer adequate for prediction. (b) ONE ARGUMENT raised against the publication of such forecasts is the expectation that management would present a conservative forecast in order to "look good" when actual results of the year are in. A SECOND POINT often considered is the prospect that the forecast would provide competitors with confidential information thus endangering business strategy and the performance of the firm. A THIRD ARGUMENT is that forecasts are narrow estimates, which makes them difficult to interpret given that the future is not a certainty, and as a result investors may be mislead by them. The attestation by CPAs also can be questioned. There may be a conflict of interest because the forecast in the current year report and the actual results of the next year are both audited by the CPA. There would be concern that the reported results might be adjusted so that the forecast appears to be borne out.
