Chapter 4
Adjustments, Financial Statements, and
Financial Results

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

1. Adjusting entries are made at the end of the accounting period to record all
revenues and expenses that have not been recorded but belong in the current
period. These adjustments also ensure that the related accounts on the balance
sheet and income statement are up–to–date and complete.

2. (a) The time period assumption states that the long life of a company can be
divided into shorter time periods. Adjustments are required by GAAP to
ensure that a company’s financial statements include all the transactions of
the given time period.
(b) The revenue recognition principle states that revenues should be recorded
when earned. Adjustments assist in recording revenues during the period in
which they are earned, rather than when cash is received.
(c) The expense recognition or “matching” principle states that expenses are
recorded when incurred to generate revenues. Adjustments ensure that the
expenses incurred during a particular period are, in fact, recorded during that
period.

3. The two different types of adjusting journal entries are:

(1) Deferral adjustments:

Education.
(a) Revenues – previously recorded liabilities that need to be adjusted at the
end of the period to reflect earned revenues (e.g., unearned revenue must be
adjusted for the portion of sales revenues earned in the current period).
(b) Expenses– previously recorded assets that need to be adjusted at the end
of the period to reflect incurred expenses (e.g., prepaid insurance must be
adjusted for the portion of insurance expense incurred in the current period).
(2) Accrual adjustments:
(a) Revenues - revenues that have been earned by the end of the accounting
period, but will be collected in a future accounting period (e.g., recording
interest receivable for interest earned but not yet collected).
(b) Expenses – expenses that have been incurred by the end of the accounting
period, but will be paid in a future accounting period (e.g., recording an account
payable for utilities used during the period but which have not yet been paid).

4. Adjusting entries have no effect on cash. For unearned revenues and


prepayments, cash was received or paid at some point in the past. For accruals,
cash will be received or paid in a future accounting period. At the time of the
adjusting entry, no cash is received or paid.

5. A contra–asset is an account related to an asset that is an offset or reduction to the


asset's balance. Accumulated Depreciation is a contra–account to the equipment
and buildings accounts.

6. Depreciation expense is reported on the income statement. It indicates the amount


of depreciation for the current period. Accumulated depreciation is reported on the
balance sheet (as a contra–asset). It indicates the total depreciation, which has
accumulated from the date the asset was acquired to the date of the balance sheet.

7. An adjusted trial balance is a list of the individual accounts, usually in financial


statement order, with their adjusted debit or credit balances. It is used to provide a
check on the equality of the debits and credits.

11. (a) Income statement: Revenues  Expenses = Net Income


(b) Balance sheet: Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity
(c) Statement of retained earnings: Beginning Retained Earnings + Net Income
 Dividends = Ending Retained Earnings

12. The net income from the income statement is included on the statement of retained
earnings to determine the ending retained earnings balance, which is then reported
on the balance sheet as a stockholders’ equity account.

13. Closing journal entries are made at the end of the accounting period to transfer the
balances in the temporary accounts to retained earnings. The closing journal
entries reduce the revenue, expense, and dividends accounts to a zero balance so
that they can be used for the accumulation process during the next period. Closing
entries must be entered into the system through the journal and posted to the
ledger accounts to state properly the temporary and permanent account balances
(i.e., zero balances in the temporary accounts).

14. Permanent accounts are balance sheet accounts (for assets, liabilities, and
stockholders’ equity accounts). These accounts are not closed at the end of
each period.
Temporary accounts include all income statement accounts (for revenues and
expenses) and the Dividends account. These accounts are used to track results
of only the current period, so they are closed (into Retained Earnings) at the
end of each year.

15. The income statement accounts are closed at the end of the accounting period
because, in effect, they are temporary sub–accounts to retained earnings (i.e., a
part of stockholders' equity). They are used only for accumulation during the
accounting period. When the period ends, these accumulated accounts must be
transferred (closed) to retained earnings. The closing process serves:

(1) to correctly state retained earnings, and


(2) to clear out the balances of the temporary accounts for the year just ended, so
that these sub–accounts can be used again during the next period for
accumulation and classification purposes.

Balance sheet accounts are not closed at the end of the period because they reflect
permanent accumulated balances of assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity.
Permanent accounts show the business’s financial position at the end of the period
and are the beginning amounts for the next period.

16. A post–closing trial balance is a list of all the accounts and their balances taken
from the ledger, after the adjusting and closing journal entries have been
journalized and posted. It is not a necessary part of the accounting information
processing cycle but it is useful because it demonstrates the equality of the debits
and credits in the ledger, after the closing entries have been journalized and
posted. It also shows that all temporary accounts (revenues, expenses, dividends)
contain zero balances (after the closing entries have been posted).

17. The owner is correct; the adjustment process does consume a lot of time and it
delays month–end reporting of financial results. However, prior to adjustments, the
financial results are not complete or up–to–date. Important information relating to
assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses has not yet been incorporated into the
accounting records. Without this information, the owner may make decisions that
are inappropriate for the business. Only after adjustments have been completed,
will the owner have accurate information on which to base her decisions.

* Due to the nature of cases, it is very difficult to estimate the amount of time students
will need to complete them. As with any open–ended project, it is possible for students
to devote a large amount of time to these assignments. While students often benefit
from the extra effort, we find that some become frustrated by the perceived difficulty of
the task. You can reduce student frustration and anxiety by making your expectations
clear, and by offering suggestions (about how to research topics or what companies to
select). The skills developed by these cases are indicated on the following page.

Adjustments are needed to ensure the financial statements are up–to–date and
complete. Adjusting entries are necessary at the end of the accounting period to
ensure that all revenues earned and expenses incurred and the related assets and
liabilities are measured properly. The entries above are accruals; entry (a) is an
accrued expense (incurred but not yet recorded) and entry (b) is an accrued revenue
(earned but not yet recorded). In applying the accrual basis of accounting, revenues
should be recognized when earned and expenses should be recognized when incurred
in generating revenues.

ANSWERS TO SKILLS DEVELOPMENT CASES

S4–1

1. A
2. D
3. B

S4–2

Req. 1

The Home Depot had $865,000,000 in Advertising Expense whereas Lowe’s had
$811,000,000 in Advertising Expenses for fiscal 2013 (as reported in Note 1).

Req. 2

Lowe’s owes $785,000,000 for salaries and wages at its year–end. This is less than
what Home Depot owed at its year–end ($1,428,000,000). The difference between the
two companies’ liabilities could be explained by the number of employees that each
company hires, the rate of pay that the employees receive, or the number of days for
which wages are owed. As any of these factors increases, so does the amount of the
liability.

S4–3

The solutions to this project will depend on the company and/or accounting period
selected for analysis.

when they account for over half the net income of a quarter (such as 1999 Q3 and 2000
Q1).

Req. 2

To capitalize an expense is to record its cost as an asset rather than an expense. It is


appropriate to capitalize a cost if it produces a probable future economic benefit.
Although generally beneficial, the benefits of some marketing activities are not easily
measured, so most marketing costs are expensed when incurred.

Req.3

1999 (Q3)
Bonus Expense (+E, SE) ................................ 7.6 M
Bonus Payable (+L) ................................ 7.6 M

1999 (Q4)
Bonus Payable (L) .......................................... 7.6 M
Bonus Expense (E,+SE) ........................ 7.6 M

2000 (Q1)
Bonus Expense (+E, SE) ................................ 7.6 M
Cash (A) ............................................... 7.6 M

The expense recognition (“matching”) principle is violated when expenses are recorded
at the time of payment rather than at the time they are incurred.

The change in estimated depreciation expense will increase net income this year but
some depreciation will now extend into next year, decreasing net income then.

Although it’s true that GAAP requires the use of estimates in certain instances (such as
depreciation), the estimates should be fair and unbiased. Given the increasing
competition from online products, we must question whether DVD demand would
extend as long as 15 months. This does not seem to be a fair estimate of the period
over which revenues will be generated. Given the CFO’s motivation for changing the
estimate, we must question whether the estimate is unbiased.

The bank will rely on the company’s reported financial condition to assess the
appropriate terms of the new loan (e.g., interest rate, loan period, loan security).
Existing and potential investors will rely on the financial statements to make investment
decisions. If the proposed change is made and the earnings targets are met, these
financial statement users may be misled into judging the company as more successful
than it otherwise would have been without the change in estimate.

It is possible that these users would use their knowledge about accounting to
understand the reasons the company was able to meet its earnings target. If they were
to do this, they might “see through” the manipulation of the accounting estimate and
realize that the company had not actually met their expectations for financial
performance (and definitely failed to meet their expectations for honest and transparent
financial reporting). If this occurred, the CFO’s “solution” could backfire and cause the
company more harm than if she were to report the financial results fairly and without
bias.

This potentially dishonest and unethical behavior on the part of a senior member of
management should be brought to the attention of the company’s independent board of
directors. The assistant accountant could raise the issue through an anonymous “tips”
line that many companies have established or, failing that, could arrange to meet with
the chair of the ethics or audit subcommittees of the board of directors.

Req. 4

(today’s date)

To the Stockholders of Pirate Pete Moving Corporation:

We regret to inform you that your request for a $20,000 loan has been denied.

Our review showed that various adjustments were required to the original set of
financial statements provided to us. The original (unadjusted) financial statements
overstated net income for the year by $27,050 (i.e., $38,000  $10,950). This
overstatement was caused by incorrectly including $7,000 of revenue collected in
advance that had not been earned. Further, the expenses were understated and
income tax expense had not been included.

Total assets were overstated by $14,200 (i.e., $82,000  $67,800). Supplies were
overstated by $4,200, prepaid insurance was overstated by $2,000, and the net book
value of the equipment was overstated by $8,000 because annual depreciation was not
properly recognized.

We require that there be sufficient collateral pledged against the loan before we can
consider it. The current market value of the equipment may be able to provide
additional collateral against which the loan could be secured. Your personal
investments may also be considered viable collateral if you are willing to sign an
agreement pledging these assets as collateral for the loan. This is a common
requirement for small start–up businesses.

If you would like us to reconsider your application, please provide us the current market
values of any assets you would pledge as collateral.

Regards,
(your name)
