Identify the Qualitative Characteristics
of Accounting Information and the
Basic Elements of Financial Statements

Fundamental Concepts
Qualitative Characteristics of Accounting Information
“The FASB identified the qualitative characteristics of

accounting information that distinguish better (more
useful) information from inferior (less useful) information
for decision-making purposes.”
LO 2 8
Qualitative Characteristics
LO 2 9
Fundamental Quality—Relevance (2 of 5)
To have relevance, accounting information must be capable of

making a difference in a decision.
LO 2 10
Financial information has predictive value if it has value as an input to

predictive processes used by investors to form their own expectations
about the future.
LO 2 11
Relevant information also helps users confirm or correct prior

expectations.
LO 2 12
Information is material if omitting it or misstating it could

influence decisions that users make on the basis of the reported
financial information.
LO 2 13
Faithful Representation (2 of 5)
Faithful representation means that the numbers and descriptions

match what really existed or happened.
LO 2 14
Completeness means that all the information that is necessary for

faithful representation is provided.
LO 2 15
Neutrality means that a company cannot select information to

favor one set of interested parties over another.
LO 2 16
An information item that is free from error will be a more accurate

(faithful) representation of a financial item.
LO 2 17
Enhancing Qualities (2 of 6)
Enhancing qualitative characteristics distinguish more-useful

information from less-useful information.
LO 2 18
Information that is measured and reported in a similar manner for

different companies is considered comparable.
LO 2 19
Verifiability occurs when independent measurers, using the same

methods, obtain similar results.
LO 2 20
Timeliness means having information available to decision-makers

before it loses its capacity to influence decisions.
LO 2 21
Understandability is the quality of information that lets reasonably

informed users see its significance.
LO 2 22
Basic Elements (2 of 6)
Assets. Probable future economic benefits obtained or
controlled by a particular entity as a result of past
transactions or events.
Liabilities. Probable future sacrifices of economic benefits
arising from present obligations of a particular entity to
transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the
future as a result of past transactions or events.
Equity. Residual interest in the assets of an entity that
remains after deducting its liabilities.
LO 2 23
Investments by Owners. Increases in net assets of a
particular enterprise resulting from transfers to it from
other entities of something of value to obtain or increase
ownership interests (or equity) in it.
Distributions to Owners. Decreases in net assets of a
particular enterprise resulting from transferring assets,
rendering services, or incurring liabilities by the
enterprise to owners.
LO 2 24
Comprehensive Income. Change in equity (net assets) of
an entity during a period from transactions and other
events and circumstances from nonowner sources.
LO 2 25

• Income numbers are affected by the accounting
methods employed
• Income measurement involves judgment
LO 1 29
Describe the Content and Format of the
Income Statement

Content and Format of the Income
Statement
Elements of the Income Statement (Revenues)
Revenues – Inflows or other enhancements of assets of an
entity or settlements of its liabilities during a period from
delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or other
activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing major or
central operations.
Examples include sales, fees, interest, dividends, and rents.
LO 2 31
Elements of the Income Statement (1 of 2)
Expenses – Outflows or other using-up of assets or

incurrences of liabilities during a period from delivering
or producing goods, rendering services, or carrying out
other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing
major or central operations.
Examples include cost of goods sold, depreciation,
interest, rent, salaries and wages, and taxes.
LO 2 32
Elements of the Income Statement (2 of 2)
Gains – Increases in equity (net assets) from peripheral or

incidental transactions of an entity except those that result
from revenues or investments by owners.
Losses – Decreases in equity (net assets) from peripheral or
incidental transactions of an entity except those that result
from expenses or distributions to owners.
Gains and losses result from the sale of investments or plant
assets, settlement of liabilities, and write-offs of assets due to
impairments or casualty.
LO 2 33
Intermediate Components of the
Income Statement
Multiple-Step Income Statement
• Separates operating transactions from nonoperating
transactions
• Matches costs and expenses with related revenues
• Highlights certain intermediate components of income
that analysts use assessing financial performance

LO 2 42
Discuss How to Report Various Income
Items
43
Reporting Various Income Items
Companies are required to report additional items as part
of net income so users can better determine the long-run
earning power of the company.
These income items fall into four general categories:
1. Unusual and infrequent gains and losses
2. Discontinued operations
3. Noncontrolling interest
4. Earnings per share
Modified all-inclusive concept
LO 3 44
Unusual and Infrequent Gains and Losses
a. Unusual. High degree of abnormality and of a type
clearly unrelated to, or only incidentally related to, the
ordinary and typical activities of the company, taking
into account the environment in which it operates.
b. Infrequency of occurrence. Type of transaction that is
not reasonably expected to recur in the foreseeable
future, taking into account the environment in which
the company operates.
LO 3 45
(1 of 3)
Common types of unusual or infrequent gains and losses:

• Losses on write-down (impairment) of receivables;
inventories; property, plant, and equipment; goodwill or
other intangible assets
• Restructuring charges
• Gains and losses from sale or abandonment of property,
plant and equipment
• Effects of a strike
LO 3 46
(2 of 3)
Common types of unusual or infrequent gains and losses:

• Gains and losses on extinguishment (redemption) of debt
obligations.
• Gains and losses related to casualties such as fires, floods,
and earthquakes.
• Gains or losses on sale of investment securities.
LO 3 47
Discontinued Operations
Occurs when two things happen:

1. A company eliminates the results of operations of a
component of the business.
2. The elimination of a component that represents a
strategic shift, having a major effect on the company’s
operations and financial results.
Amounts are reported “net of tax.”
LO 3 48
Discontinued Operations Illustration 1
Illustration: Multiplex Products Inc., a highly diversified
company, decides to discontinue its electronics division.
During the current year, the electronics division lost
$300,000 (net of tax). Multiplex Products sold the division
at the end of the year at a loss of $500,000 (net of tax).
Multiplex determines that the electronics division
discontinuation meets the strategic shift criteria because
the division is a major line of business (its assets exceed
20 percent of Multiplex’s total assets).
LO 3 49
Discontinued Operations Illustration 2
Illustration: The following illustration shows how the discontinued
operations would be reported on the income statement for Multiplex
Products.
Income from continuing operations $20,000,000

Discontinued operations
Loss from operation of discontinued electronics
division (net of tax) $300,000
Loss from disposal of electronics division (net of tax) 500,000 (800,000)
Net income $19,200,000
LO 3 50
are reported after “Income
from continuing
operations.”
Without any discontinued
operations, “Income from
continuing operations”
would be “net income.”
LO 3 51
Intraperiod Tax Allocation
• Allocation of tax within a period
• Helps users understand impact of income taxes on various
components of net income
• Intraperiod tax allocation is used for:
1. income from continuing operations
2. discontinued operations
LO 3 52
Discontinued Operations (Gain)
Illustration: Schindler Co. has income before income tax of

$250,000. It has a gain of $100,000 from a discontinued operation.
Assuming a 30 percent income tax rate, Schindler presents the
following information on the income statement.
Income before income tax $250,000
Income tax 75,000
Income from continuing operations 175,000
Gain on discontinued operations $100,000
Less: Applicable income tax 30,000 70,000
Net income $245,000
LO 3 53
Discontinued Operations (Loss)
Illustration: Schindler Co. has income before income tax of

$250,000. It suffers a loss from discontinued operations of
$100,000. Assuming a 30 percent tax rate, Schindler presents the
income tax on the income statement as shown
Income before income tax $250,000
Income tax 75,000
Income from continuing operations 175,000
Loss from discontinued operations $100,000
Less: Applicable income tax reduction 30,000 70,000
Net income $105,000
LO 3 54
Noncontrolling Interest in Income
When a company owns substantial interests (generally

greater than 50%) in another company, GAAP generally
require that the financial statements of both companies
be consolidated together into one set of financials.
Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity (net
assets) interest in a subsidiary not attributable to the
parent company.
LO 3 55
Noncontrolling Interest in Income
Illustration: Assume that Coca-Cola acquires 70 percent of the
outstanding stock of Koch Company. Because Coca-Cola owns more
than 50 percent of Koch, it consolidates Koch’s financial results
with its own. GAAP requires that net income be allocated to the
controlling and noncontrolling interest.
LO 3 56
Earnings per Share
Net Income  Preferred Dividends

Weighted Average of Common Shares Outstanding
• A significant business indicator

• Measures the dollars earned by each share of common stock
• Must be disclosed on the income statement
LO 3 57
Earnings per Share Illustration
Illustration: Lancer, Inc. reports net income of $350,000. It
declares and pays preferred dividends of $50,000 for the year.
The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
during the year is 100,000 shares. Lancer computes earnings
per share as follows:
Net Income  Preferred Dividends

 Earnings per Share

• Approach preserves comparability across years
• Examples include:
• change from FIFO to average-cost
• change from percentage-of-completion to
completed-contract method
LO 4 61
Changes in Accounting Principle Illustration 1
Illustration: Gaubert Inc. decided in March 2020 to change from
FIFO to weighted-average inventory pricing. Gaubert’s income
before taxes, using the new weighted-average method in 2020, is
$30,000. This illustration presents the pretax income data for
2018 and 2019 for this example.

Change in Accounting Estimates
• Accounted for in period of change or period of change
and future periods if change affects both
• Not handled retrospectively, not considered an error
• Examples include:
• Useful lives and salvage values of depreciable assets
• Allowance for uncollectible receivables
• Inventory obsolescence
LO 4 64
Change in Accounting Estimate (1 of 3)
Illustration: Arcadia H S, purchased equipment for $510,000
which was estimated to have a useful life of 10 years with a
salvage value of $10,000 at the end of that time. Depreciation
has been recorded for 7 years on a straight-line basis. In 2020
(year 8), it is determined that the total estimated life should be
15 years with a salvage value of $5,000 at the end of that time.
Questions:
• What is the entry to correct prior years’ depreciation?
• Calculate the depreciation expense for 20 20.

Discuss the Fundamental Concepts
Related to Revenue Recognition and
Measurement
LO 1 84
Fundamentals of Revenue Recognition
Recently, the FASB and IASB issued a converged standard
on revenue recognition entitled Revenue from Contracts
with Customers.
To address the inconsistencies and weaknesses of the
previous approaches, a comprehensive revenue
recognition standard now applies to a wide range of
transactions and industries.
LO 1 85
New Revenue Recognition Standard
Revenue from Contracts with Customers adopts an
asset-liability approach. Companies:
• Account for revenue based on the asset or liability
arising from contracts with customers.
• Are required to analyze contracts with customers
• Contracts indicate terms and measurement of
consideration.
• Contracts specify the promises that must be met by
each party.
LO 1 86
New Revenue Recognition Standard
Key Concepts of Revenue Recognition
Key Objective
Recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount
that reflects the consideration that the company receives, or expects to receive, in
exchange for these goods or services.
Five-Step Process for Revenue Recognition
1. Identify the contract with customers.
2. Identify the separate performance obligations in the contract.
3. Determine the transaction price.
4. Allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations.
5. Recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue Recognition Principle

Recognize revenue in the accounting period when the performance obligation is satisfied.
LO 1 87
Recognizing Revenue When (or as)
Each Performance Obligation Is
Satisfied—Step 5
Company satisfies its performance obligation when the customer
obtains control of the good or service.
Change in Control Indicators
1. Company has a right to payment for the asset.
2. Company has transferred legal title to the asset.
3. Company has transferred physical possession of the asset.
4. Customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership.
5. Customer has accepted the asset.
LO 2 88
Performance Obligation Satisfied
Recognize revenue from a performance obligation over
time by measuring progress toward completion
• Method for measuring progress should depict transfer
of control from company to customer.
• Objective of methods is to measure extent of progress
in terms of costs, units, or value added.
LO 2 89
Apply the Five-Step Process to Major
Revenue Recognition Issues
LO 3 90
Accounting for Revenue Recognition
Issues
• Sales returns and allowances
• Repurchase agreements
• Bill and hold
• Principal-agent relationships
• Consignments
• Warranties
• Nonrefundable upfront fees
LO 3 91
Sales Returns and Allowances
• Right of return is granted for product for various
reasons (e.g., dissatisfaction with product).
• Company returning the product receives any
combination of the following.
1. Full or partial refund of any consideration paid.
2. Credit that can be applied against amounts
owed, or that will be owed, to the seller.
3. Another product in exchange.
LO 3 92
Credit Sales with Returns and
Allowances Illustration
On January 12, 2020, Venden Company sells 100 cameras for $100 each
on account to Amaya Inc. Venden allows Amaya to return any unused
cameras within 45 days of purchase. The cost of each product is $60.
Venden estimates that:
1. Three products will be returned.
2. The costs of recovering the products will be immaterial.
3. The returned products are expected to be resold at a profit.
On January 24, Amaya returns two of the cameras because they were the
wrong color. On January 31, Venden prepares financial statements and
determines that it is likely that only one more camera will be returned.
Venden makes the following entries related to these transactions.
LO 3 93
Allowances-January 12, 2020
Illustration: On January 12, 2020, Venden Company sells 100 cameras for
$100 each on account to Amaya Inc. Venden allows Amaya to return any
unused cameras within 45 days of purchase. The cost of each product is $60.
Venden makes the following entries to record the sale of the cameras and
related cost of goods sold on January 12, 2020.

Sales Revenue (100 × $100) 10,000

Repurchase Agreements
• Allows company to transfer an asset to a customer but
have an unconditional (forward) obligation or
unconditional right (call option) to repurchase the asset
at a later date.
• If obligation or right to repurchase is for an amount
greater than or equal to selling price, then transaction
is a financing transaction.
LO 3 102
Illustration
Facts: Morgan Inc., an equipment dealer, sells equipment on January 1,
2020, to Lane Company for $100,000. It agrees to repurchase this
equipment on December 31, 2021, for a price of $121,000.
Question: Should Morgan Inc. record a sale for this transaction?
Assuming an interest rate of 10 percent is imputed from the agreement, Morgan
makes the following entry to record the financing on January 1, 2020.
Cash 100,000
Liability to Lane Company 100,000

Bill-and-Hold Arrangements
• Contract under which an entity bills a customer for a
product but the entity retains physical possession of the
product until a point in time in the future.
• Result when buyer is not yet ready to take delivery but
does take title and accepts billing.
LO 3 105
Illustration
Facts: Butler Company sells $450,000 (cost $280,000) of fireplaces on
March 1, 2020, to a local coffee shop, Baristo, which is planning to
expand its locations around the city. Under the agreement, Baristo asks
Butler to retain these fireplaces in its warehouses until the new coffee
shops that will house the fireplaces are ready. Title passes to Baristo at
the time the agreement is signed.
Question: When should Butler recognize the revenue from this bill-and-
hold arrangement?
Butler determines when it has satisfied its performance obligation to
transfer a product by evaluating when Baristo obtains control of that
product.
LO 3 106
Question: When should Butler recognize the revenue from this bill-and-hold
arrangement?
For Baristo to have obtained control of a product in a bill-and-hold arrangement,

it must meet all of the conditions for change in control plus all of the following
criteria:
(a) The reason for the bill-and-hold arrangement must be substantive.
(b) The product must be identified separately as belonging to Baristo.
(c) The product currently must be ready for physical transfer to Baristo.
(d) Butler cannot have the ability to use the product or to direct it to another
customer.
In this case, it appears that the above criteria were met, and therefore revenue
recognition should be permitted at the time the contract is signed.
LO 3 107
When should Butler recognize the revenue from this bill-
and-hold arrangement?
Butler makes the following entry to record the sale on March 1, 2020.
Accounts receivable 450,000

Sales Revenue 450,000
Butler makes an entry to record the related cost of goods sold on March
1, 2020, as follows.
Inventory 280,000

over time if at least one of the following three criteria is met:
1. The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits
of the seller’s performance as the seller performs.
2. The company’s performance creates or enhances an asset (for
example, work in process) that the customer controls as the asset
is created or enhanced; or

Explain Revenue Recognition for
Franchises
LO 8 128
Revenue Recognition for Franchises
Four types of franchising arrangements have evolved:

1. Manufacturer-retailer
2. Manufacturer-wholesaler
3. Service sponsor-retailer
4. Wholesaler-retailer
LO 8 129
Two Sources of Revenue
1. Sale of initial franchises and related assets or services, and
2. Continuing fees based on the operations of franchises.
LO 8 130
Franchises
The franchisor normally provides the franchisee with:
1. Assistance in site selection
2. Evaluation of potential income
3. Supervision of construction activity
4. Assistance in the acquisition of signs, fixtures, and equipment
5. Bookkeeping and advisory services
6. Employee and management training
7. Quality control
8. Advertising and promotion
LO 8 131
Franchise Accounting
Performance obligations relate to:

• Right to open a business
• Use of trade name or other intellectual property of the
franchisor
• Continuing services, such as marketing help, training, and in
some cases supplying inventory and inventory management
LO 8 132
Franchisors commonly charge an initial franchise fee and
continuing franchise fees:
• Initial franchise fee (payment for establishing the relationship
and providing some initial services)
• Continuing franchise fees received
• In return for continuing rights granted by the agreement
• For providing management training, advertising and
promotion, legal assistance, and other support
LO 8 133
Facts: Tum’s Pizza Inc. enters into a franchise agreement on December 31, 2020, giving Food
Fight Corp. the right to operate as a franchisee of Tum’s Pizza for 5 years. Tum’s charges
Food Fight an initial franchise fee of $50,000 for the right to operate as a franchisee. Of this
amount, $20,000 is payable when Food Fight signs the agreement, and the note balance is
payable in five annual payments of $6,000 each on December 31. As part of the
arrangement, Tum’s helps locate the site, negotiate the lease or purchase of the site,
supervise the construction activity, and provide employee training and the equipment
necessary to be a distributor of its products. Similar training services and equipment are
sold separately. Food Fight also promises to pay ongoing royalty payments of 1% of its
annual sales (payable each January 31 of the following year) and is obliged to purchase
products from Tum’s at its current standalone selling prices at the time of purchase. The
credit rating of Food Fight indicates that money can be borrowed at 8%. The present value
of an ordinary annuity of five annual receipts of $6,000 each discounted at 8% is $23,957.
The discount of $6,043 represents the interest revenue to be accrued by Tum’s over the
payment period.
LO 8 134
What are the performance obligations in this arrangement
and the point in time at which the performance obligations
for Tum’s are satisfied and revenue is recognized?
Rights to the trade name, market area, and proprietary know-how for 5
years are not individually distinct.
• Each one is not sold separately and cannot be used with other goods
or services that are readily available to the franchisee.
• Combined rights give rise to a single performance obligation.
• Tum’s satisfies performance obligation at point in time when Food
Fight obtains control of the rights.
LO 8 135
What are the performance obligations in this
arrangement and the point in time at which the
performance obligations for Tum’s are satisfied and
revenue is recognized? (continued)
Training services and equipment are distinct because similar services and
equipment are sold separately.
• Tum’s satisfies those performance obligations when it transfers the
services and equipment to Food Fight.
Tum’s cannot recognize revenue for the royalty payments because it is
not reasonably assured to be entitled to those royalty amounts.
• Tum’s recognizes revenue for the royalties when (or as) the uncertainty
is resolved.
LO 8 136

Travel advances Receivables Assumed to be collected from
employees or deducted from
their salaries.
Postage on hand (as stamps Prepaid expenses May also be classified as office
or in postage meters) supplies inventory.
Bank overdrafts Current liability If right of offset exists, reduce
cash.
Compensating balances Cash separately Classify as current or noncurrent

classified as a deposit in the balance sheet. Disclose
maintained as separately in notes details of the
compensating balance arrangement.
LO 1 168
Define Receivables and Explain
Accounting Issues Related to Their
Recognition
LO 2 169
Receivables
Claims held against customers and others for money,
goods, or services.
Classified in the balance sheet as:
• Current or noncurrent
• Trade or nontrade
 Accounts receivable
 Notes receivable
LO 2 170
Nontrade Receivables
1. Advances to officers and employees.
2. Advances to subsidiaries.
3. Deposits paid to cover potential damages or losses.
4. Deposits paid as a guarantee of performance or
payment.
5. Dividends and interest receivable.
6. Claims against: Insurance companies for casualties
sustained; defendants under suit; governmental bodies
for tax refunds; common carriers for damaged or lost
goods; creditors for returned, damaged, or lost goods;
customers for returnable items (crates, containers, etc.).

Receivables Balance Sheet Presentations
LO 2 172
Recognition of Accounts Receivables
• Accounts receivable generally arise as part of a

revenue arrangement
• Revenue recognition principle indicates that a
company should recognize revenue when it satisfies
its performance obligation by transferring the good or
service to the customer.
LO 2 173
Recognition of Accounts Receivables
Illustration
If Lululemon sells a yoga outfit to Jennifer Burian for $100 on

account, the yoga outfit is transferred when Jennifer obtains
control of this outfit. When this change in control occurs,
Lululemon should recognize an account receivable and sales
revenue. Lululemon makes the following entry:
Accounts Receivable 100

Sales Revenue 100
LO 2 174
Valuation of Accounts Receivable (1 of 6)
• Record credit losses as debits to Bad Debt Expense
(or Uncollectible Accounts Expense)
• Normal and necessary risk of doing business on credit
• Two methods to account for uncollectible accounts:
1. Direct write-off method
2. Allowance method
LO 3 175
Valuation of Accounts Receivable
Methods of Accounting for Uncollectible Accounts
Direct Write-Off Allowance Method

• Theoretically deficient • Losses are estimated
• No matching • Percentage-of-sales
• Receivable not stated at • Percentage-of-
cash realizable value receivables
• Not GAAP when material • GAAP requires when
in amount material in amount
LO 3 176
Direct Write-Off Method for Uncollectible Accounts
When a company determines a particular account to be

uncollectible, it charges the loss to Bad Debt Expense.
Assume, for example, that on December 10 Cruz Co. writes off
as uncollectible Yusado’s $8,000 balance. The entry is:
Bad Debt Expense 8,000
Accounts Receivable (Yusado) 8,000
LO 3 177
Allowance Method for Uncollectible Accounts
• Involves estimating uncollectible accounts at end of

each period
• Ensures that companies state receivables on balance
sheet at net realizable value
• Companies estimate uncollectible accounts and net
realizable value using information about past and
current events as well as forecasts of future
collectibility
LO 3 178
Allowance Method for Uncollectibles
Recording Estimated Uncollectibles
Illustration: Assume that Brown Furniture in 2020, its first

year of operations, has credit sales of $1,800,000. Of this
amount, $150,000 remains uncollected at December 31. The
credit manager estimates that $10,000 of these sales will be
uncollectible. The adjusting entry to record the estimated
uncollectibles (assuming a zero balance in the allowance
account) is:
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 10,000
LO 3 179
Presentation of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The amount of $140,000 represents the net realizable value

of the accounts receivable at the statement date.
LO 3 180
Recording the Write-Off of an Uncollectible Account
• When companies have exhausted all means of

collecting a past-due account and collection appears
impossible, the company should write off the account
• In the credit card industry, for example, it is standard
practice to write off accounts that are 210 days past
due.
LO 3 181
Recording the Write-Off of an Uncollectible Account
Illustration: The financial vice president of Brown Furniture

authorizes a write-off of the $1,000 balance owed by Randall
Co. on March 1. The entry to record the write-off is:
LO 3 182
Assume that on July 1, Randall Co. pays the $1,000 amount
that Brown had written off on March 1. These are the entries:

Cash 1,000
LO 3 183
Estimating the Allowance
Percentage-of-Receivables Approach
• Reports estimate of receivables at realizable value
• Companies may apply this method using
 one composite rate, or
 an aging schedule using different rates

LO 3 190
Explain Common Techniques Employed
to Control Cash
LO 6 191
Cash Controls
Management faces two problems in accounting for cash
transactions:
1. Establish proper controls to prevent any
unauthorized transactions by officers or employees.
2. Provide information necessary to properly manage
cash on hand and cash transactions.
LO 6 192
Cash Controls
Using Bank Accounts
To obtain desired control objectives, a company can vary
the number and location of banks and the types of
accounts.
• Collection float
• Lockbox accounts
• General checking account
• Imprest bank accounts
LO 6 193
Cash Controls
The Imprest Petty Cash System
To pay small amounts for miscellaneous expenses.
Steps:
1. Record $300 transfer of funds to petty cash:

Illustration: Nugget Mining Company’s books show a cash balance at the
Denver National Bank on November 30, 2020, of $20,502. The bank
statement covering the month of November shows an ending balance of
$22,190. An examination of Nugget’s accounting records and November
bank statement identified the following reconciling items.
1. A deposit of $3,680 that Nugget mailed November 30 does not
appear on the bank statement.
2. Checks written in November but not charged to the November bank
statement are:
Check #7327 $ 150

November 20 on Sequoia Co. bonds held by the bank for Nugget.
4. Bank service charges of $18 are not yet recorded on Nugget’s books.
5. The bank returned one of Nugget’s customer’s checks for $220 with the
bank statement, marked “NSF.” The bank treated this bad check as a
disbursement.
6. Nugget discovered that it incorrectly recorded check #7322, written in
November for $131 in payment of an account payable, as $311.

CHAPTER FIVE
Valuation of Inventories:
A Cost-Basis Approach
Identify Inventory Classifications and
Different Inventory Systems
LO 1 208
Inventory Issues
Classification
Inventories are:
• asset items held for sale in ordinary course of business, or
• goods to be used in production of goods to be sold
LO 1 209
Inventory Issues
Merchandising Company
Classification
• One inventory
account
• Purchase
merchandise in a
form ready for sale
LO 1 210
Inventory Issues
Manufacturing Company
Three accounts
• Raw Materials
• Work in Process
• Finished Goods
LO 1 211
Determine the Goods and Costs Included in
Inventory
LO 2 212
Goods and Costs Included in Inventory
Goods Included in Inventory
A company recognizes inventory and accounts payable at
the time it controls the asset.
Passage of title is often used to determine control
because the rights and obligations are established legally.
LO 2 213
Goods in Transit
LO 2 214
Consigned Goods
• Goods out on consignment remain the property of the
consignor
• Consignee makes no entry to the inventory account for
goods received
LO 2 215
Special Sales Agreements
Sales with Repurchase Agreement
• Often referred to as a repurchase (or product financing)
agreement, usually involves a transfer (sale) with either
an implicit or explicit repurchase agreement.
• These arrangements are often described in practice as
“parking transactions.”
LO 2 216
Special Sales Agreements
Sales with High Rates of Return
Seller
1. Record sales revenue at the amount it expects to
receive from the transaction.
2. Establishes an estimated inventory return account at
the date of sale to recognize that some of its inventory
will be returned.
LO 2 217
Describe and Compare the Cost Flow
Assumptions Used to Account for
Inventories
LO 3 218
Which Cost Flow Assumptions to
Adopt?
Specific Identification
versus
FIFO --- LIFO --- Average Cost
Cost Flow Assumption Adopted does NOT need to
be consistent with Physical Movement of Goods
Method adopted should be one that most clearly reflects

periodic income.
LO 3 219
Which Cost Flow Assumptions to Adopt?
Illustration
Call-Mart Inc. had the following transactions in its first month

of operations.
Date Purchased Sold or Issued Balance
March 2 2,000 @ $4.00 2,000 units
March 15 6,000 @ $4.40 8,000 units
March 19 4,000 units 4,000 units
March 30 2,000 @ $4.75 6,000 units
Calculate Goods Available for Sale.
LO 3 220
Which Cost Flow Assumptions to Adopt?
(Continued)
Illustration
March 2 2,000 @ $4.00 2,000 units
March 15 6,000 @ $4.40 8,000 units
March 19 4,000 units 4,000 units
March 30 2,000 @ $4.75 6,000 units
Beginning inventory (2,000 × $4) $ 8,000

Calculation
of Goods Purchases:
Available 6,000 × $4.40 26,400
for Sale 9,500
2,000 × 4.75
Goods available for sale $43,900
LO 3 221
Adopt?
• Includes in cost of goods sold the costs of specific items
sold
• Used when handling a relatively small number of costly,
easily distinguishable items
• Matches actual costs against actual revenue
• Cost flow matches physical flow of goods
• May allow a company to manipulate net income
LO 3 222
Illustration: Call-Mart Inc.’s 6,000 units of inventory consists of the
following. Compute the amount of ending inventory and cost of
goods sold.
Date No. of Units Unit Cost Total Cost
March 2 1,000 $4.00 $ 4,000
March 15 3,000 4.40 13,200
March 30 2,000 4.75 9,500
Ending inventory 6,000 $26,700
Cost of goods available for sale
(computed in previous section) $43,900
Deduct: Ending inventory 26,700
Cost of goods sold $17,200
LO 3 223
Adopt?
Average-Cost
• Prices items in inventory on basis of average cost of all
similar goods available during the period
• Not subject to income manipulation
• Measuring a specific physical flow of inventory is often
impossible
LO 3 224
Average-Cost
Weighted-Average Method
Date of invoice No. Units Unit Cost Total Cost
March 2 2,000 $4.00 $ 8,000
March 15 6,000 4.40 26,400
March 30 2,000 4.75 9,500
Total goods available 10,000 $43,900
$43,900
Weighted-average cost per unit = $4.39
10,000
Inventory in units 6,000 units

Ending inventory 6,000 × $4.39 = $26,340
Cost of goods available for sale $43,900

LO 3 225
Average-Cost
Moving-Average Method
March 2 (2,000 @ $4.00) $ 8,000 (2,000 @ $4.00) $ 8,000
March 15 (6,000 @ 4.40) 26,400 (8,000 @ 4.30) 34,400
March 19 (4,000 @ $4.30) (4,000 @ 4.30) 17,200
$17,200
March 30 (2,000 @ 4.75) 9,500 (6,000 @ 4.45) 26,700
In this method, Call-Mart computes a new average unit

cost each time it makes a purchase.
LO 3 226
Adopt?
First-In, First-Out (FIFO)
• Assumes goods are used in order in which they are
purchased
• Approximates physical flow of goods
• Ending inventory is close to current cost
• Fails to match current costs against current revenues
LO 3 227
Periodic Inventory System
Date No. Units Unit Cost Total Cost
March 30 2,000 $4.75 $ 9,500
March 15 4,000 4.40 17,600
Cost of goods available for sale $43,900

Determine cost of ending inventory by taking the cost of

the most recent purchase and working back until it
accounts for all units in the inventory.
LO 3 228
Perpetual Inventory System
In all cases where FIFO is used, the inventory and cost of

goods sold would be the same at the end of the month
whether a perpetual or periodic system is used.
LO 3 229
Last-In, First-Out (LIFO)
Periodic Inventory System
Date of Invoice No. Units Unit Cost Total Cost
March 2 2,000 $4.00 $ 8,000
March 15 4,000 4.40 17,600
Goods available for sale $43,900

The cost of the total quantity sold or issued during the month
comes from the most recent purchases.
LO 3 230
Last-In, First-Out (LIFO)
Perpetual Inventory System
The LIFO method results in different ending inventory and

cost of goods sold amounts than the amounts calculated
under the periodic method.
LO 3 231
Determine the Effects of Inventory Errors
on the Financial Statements
LO 4 232
Effects of Inventory Errors
Ending Inventory Misstated
Balance Income
Inventory Understated Cost of goods sold Overstated
Retained earnings Understated
Working capital Understated Net income Understated
Current ratio Understated
The effect of an error on net income in one year will be

counterbalanced in the next, however the income
statement will be misstated for both years.
LO 4 233
Illustration
To illustrate the effect on net income over a two-year period
(2019–2020), assume that Jay Weiseman Corp. understates its
ending inventory by $10,000 in 2019; all other items are
correctly stated. The effect of this error is to decrease net
income in 2019 and to increase net income in 2020. The error
is counterbalanced (offset) in 2020 because beginning
inventory is understated and net income is overstated.
The following illustration shows that the income statement
misstates the net income figures for both 2019 and 2020
although the total for the two years is correct.
LO 4 234
LO 4 235
Purchases and Inventory Misstated
Suppose that Bishop Company does not record as a
purchase certain goods that is owns and does not count
them in ending inventory.
Balance Sheet Income Statement
Inventory Understated Purchases Overstated
Retained earnings No effect Cost of goods sold No effect
Accounts payable Understated Net income No effect
Working capital No effect Inventory (ending) Understated
Current ratio Overstated
The understatement does not affect cost of goods sold and

net income because the errors offset one another.
LO 4 236
Purchases and Inventory Misstated
Illustration
Assume that Bishop Purchases and Ending
understated accounts Inventory Understated
payable and ending Current assets $ 120,000
inventory by $40,000. Current liabilities $ 40,000
The following Current ratio 3 to 1

Current assets $160,000
Current liabilities $ 80,000

Describe and Apply the Lower-of-Cost-
or-Net Realizable Value Rule
LO 5 239
Lower-of-Cost-or-Net Realizable Value
A company abandons the historical cost principle when

the future utility (revenue-producing ability) of the asset
drops below its original cost.
Definition of Net Realizable Value
• Estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business, less reasonably predictable costs of
completion, disposal, and transportation
LO 5 240
Illustration
Assume that Mander Corp. has unfinished inventory with
a cost of $950, a sales value of $1,000, estimated cost of
completion of $50, and estimated selling costs of $200.
Mander’s net realizable value is computed as follows.
Inventory value—unfinished $1,000
Less: Estimated cost of completion $ 50
Estimated cost to sell 200 250
Net realizable value $ 750
LO 5 241
LCNRV Disclosures
• Mander reports inventory at $750
• In its income statement, Mander reports a Loss Due to
Decline of Inventory to NRV of $200 ($950 − $750)

Peas 90,000 72,000 72,000
Mixed Vegetables 95,000 92,000 92,000
Final Inventory Value $384,000

Spinach Cost ($80,000) is selected because it is lower then net realizable value.
Carrots Cost ($100,000) is the same as net realizable value.

Cut beans Net realizable value ($40,000) is selected because it is lower than cost.
Peas Net realizable value ($72,000) is selected because it is lower than cost.
Mixed Vegetables Net realizable value ($92,000) is selected because it is lower than cost.

Describe and Apply the Lower-of-Cost-
or-Market Rule
LO 6 251
Lower-of-Cost-or-Market
The use of the lower-of-cost-or-net realizable value method
works well to measure the decline in value of a company’s
inventory for most companies.
FASB granted an exception to the LCNRV approach for
companies that use the LIFO or retail inventory methods.
• Rather than comparing cost to net realizable value
companies compare a “designated market value” of
inventory to cost
• Approach is commonly referred to as lower-of-cost-or-
market (LCM)
LO 6 252
Two Limitations
This approach begins with replacement cost, then applies two
additional limitations to value ending inventory.
• Net realizable value (ceiling)
• Net realizable value less a normal profit margin (floor)
LO 6 253
Net Realizable Value (NRV)
NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion and
disposal.
A company values inventory at the lower-of-cost-or-market,
with market limited to an amount that is not more than net
realizable value or less than net realizable value less a normal
profit margin.
LO 6 254
Illustration
Assume that Parker Corp. has unfinished inventory with a
sales value of $1,000, estimated cost of completion and
disposal of $300, and a normal profit margin of 10 percent of
sales. Parker determines the following net realizable value.
Inventory—sales value $ 1,000
Less: Estimated cost of completion and disposal 300
Net realizable value 700
Less: Allowance for normal profit margin (10% of sales) 100
Net realizable value less a normal profit margin $ 600
LO 6 255
Inventory Valuation
What is the rationale for the Ceiling and Floor
limitations?
LO 6 256
Rationale
What is the rationale for the Ceiling and Floor
limitations?
• Ceiling – prevents overstatement of the value of
obsolete, damaged, or shopworn inventories
• Floor – deters understatement of inventory and
overstatement of loss in current period

Gross Profit Method of Estimating
Inventory
Substitute Measure to Approximate Inventory
1. Beginning inventory plus purchases equal total goods
to be accounted for.
2. Goods not sold must be on hand.
3. The sales, reduced to cost, deducted from the sum of
the opening inventory plus purchases, equal ending
inventory.

Illustration: Cetus Corp. has a beginning inventory of $60,000
and purchases of $200,000, both at cost. Sales at selling price
amount to $280,000. The gross profit on selling price is 30
percent. Cetus applies the gross margin method as follows.
Beginning inventory (at cost) $ 60,000
Purchases (at cost) 200,000
Goods available (at cost) 260,000
Sales (at selling price) 280,000
Less: Gross profit (30% of $280,000) 84,000
Sales (at cost) 196,000
Approximate inventory (at cost) $ 64,000

given. But how did Cetus derive that figure? To see how to
compute a gross profit percentage, assume that an article cost $15
and sells for $20, a gross profit of $5.

Evaluation of Gross Profit Method
Disadvantages:
1. It is an estimate.
2. It generally relies on past percentages in determining
the markup.
3. Care must be exercised when applying a blanket gross
profit rate when there are varying gross profits.
Normally unacceptable for financial reporting purposes.
