ADJUSTING ENTRIES

Some revenues and expenses transcend one accounting period. Some transactions that
affect the accounts are not evidenced by the obvious documents associated with the original
entries.
Adjusting entries are entries needed at year-end in order to update or modify some accounts
to fairly reflect the situation as of the end of the accounting period.
The data for the adjustments for Save-Mart for the year ended December 31, 20017 include:
a. Accrued Income – income earned from a sale or service rendered to customers, but
not yet collected by the firm.
Ex: On February 3, 2017, Save-Mart referred a customer directly to the Supplier of Nike
Shoes for purchase of wholesale apparels. Save-Mart earned a referral fee income of
$3,500 from the Supplier of Nike Shoes. Adjusting entries at year-end would be:
2017 Dec. 31 Referral fee receivable 3,500
Referral Income 3,500

Assuming the above referral fee receivable would be collected on the next accounting
period,

2018 April 5 Cash 3,500


Referral fee receivable 3,500

b. Accrued expense – a current liability from services received, but not yet paid by the
firm.

Ex. Salaries not yet paid to administrative staff employees, $1,250 for the payroll period Dec.
16-31, 2017. Adjusting entries at the end of the accounting period will be:

2017 Dec. 31 Salaries expense 1,250


Salaries payable 1,250

Assuming the above salaries for employees shall be paid on the next payroll period, journal
entries on the next accounting period will be:

2018 Jan. 15 Salaries payable 1,250


Cash 1,250

c. Deferred income/ Deferred Revenue –Cash is collected from a customer to whom


a sale or a service is yet to be rendered. This is a Current Liability

Ex. On October 1, 2017, ABC Pharma rents a stall space along the Save-Mart vicinity. Save-
Mart receives from ABC $2,400 annual rental fee in advance.

2017 Oct. 1 Cash/ Cash in Bank 2,400

uncollectible. This is a Contra Asset Account.

Ex. At the end of the year, one customer of Save-Mart became insolvent. Accounts
receivable due from this customer is $1,000. Adjusting entries to take up the uncollectible
AR will be:

2017 Dec. 31 Bad Debts Expense 1,000


Allowance for Bad Debts 1,000

f. Depreciation – an allocation of the cost of a property, plant or equipment in


recognition of the exhaustion of its life every accounting period. This is a Contra
Asset Account.

Useful Life

Ex. Store equipment that was bought on November 15, 2015 with a cost of $75,973, salvage
value of $5,000, and useful life of 7 years. Year-end adjustment for the depreciation for
2017 will be:
2017 Dec. 31 Depreciation expense 10,139
