Below is some information from the financial statements of Rand Company. 12/31/2015 12/31/2014Assets$220 million$180 millionLiabilities 80 million 50 million During 2015, Rand issued $16 million of stock, earned revenues of $64 million, and declared and paid dividends of $4 million. What was the amount of total expenses that Rand recorded during fiscal year 2015? $66 million
66 million, We know that Equity (E) = Contributed Capital + Retained Earnings (RE) Equity in 2014 = 180 -50 = 130 Equity in 2015= 220 - 8- = 140 Change in Equity = + 10 The change in Contributed Capital was + 16. Hence, the change in Retained Earnings must have been - 6 We know that RE at the beginning + Net Income (NI) - Dividends = RE at the end. Here, the change in Retained Earnings was -6 and the dividend - 4. Hence, the Net Income was -2. We know that NI = Revenues - Expenses (ignoring the gains and losses). Hence, Expenses = Revenues + NI. Here, Expenses = 64 +2 = 66.

For the following transaction for Tian Company in 2028, state whether the total effect of the transaction results in an increase, decrease, or has no effect on Tian Company's assets, liabilities, equity, and net income. Tian Company collected $1,000 in sales tax during the month.
ASSETS = increase when Tian Company collects salex tax, it's essentially collecting money on the behalf of the government. This means the company's cash (an asset) increase by the amount of the sales tax collected. LIABILITIES = increase, the collected sales tax isn't Tian company's revenue; its a liability bc the company owes this amount to the government. Until the company remits this amount to the appropriate tax authority , it reamins a liability EQUITY = no effect equity looks at owner's capital, retained earnings, and overall earnings. since sale tax doesnt represent earnings for Tian Company (it is not revenue, just money collected on behalf of the government) NET INCOME = no effect affected by expenses and revenues.

Trevor Williams Company borrowed $10,000 from Mike Trout National Bank on May 1, 2019. Interest on the note, which accumulates at 6% annually, is paid when the loan principal is repaid. The loan remains outstanding on June 30 when both the Williams Company's and the Trout National Bank close their books to prepare financial statements. Other than cash, Trout National Bank's balance sheet shows which of these amounts related to the loan?
An asset = $10,100 The loan remains outstanding on June 30. This means the duration of the loan for which interest will accumulate by June 30 is 2 months (May and June). Now we will calculate the interest for these two months: Annual interest = $10,000 x 6% = $600 Interest for two months = ($600 / 12 months) x 2 months =$100 $10,000 (principal) + $100 (interest) = $10,100 This $10,100 represents both the principal and the accumulated interest that Trevor Williams Company owes to Mike Trout National Bank. This amount is considered an asset for Trout National Bank because it's an amount they expect to receive in the future.
Easter Bunny Corporation prepared its annual financial statements for its shareholders for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. Record whether the transaction below for Easter Bunny Corporation overstated (O), understated (U), or correctly stated (C) total assets, total liabilities, stockholders' equity, and net income in 2018. Easter Bunny Corporation calculated depreciation expense to be $100,000. When Easter Bunny recorded the depreciation in its journal, it debited accumulated depreciation for $100,000 and credited depreciation expense for $100,000.
Assets "O" This might seem counterintuitive initially because they recorded the depreciation, but it is essential to remember that the question is assuming the depreciation recorded was in error. Since they incorrectly recorded the depreciation (as implied by the scenario), the assets are indeed overstated. Liabilities "C" Depreciation doesn't directly impact liabilities. Equity "O" depreciation reduces net income for the year bc its an expense. A lower net income, in turn, decreases retained earnings, a component of stockholders' equity. If depreciation is incorrectly recorded, equity would be overstated. Net Income "O" Depreciation is an expense so it reduces net income. If the depreciation was recorded higher than it should have been, the expense for the yr would be overstated.

For the following transaction for Tian Company in 2028, state whether the total effect of the transaction results in an increase, decrease, or has no effect on Tian Company's assets, liabilities, equity, and net income. Tian Company paid a total of $3,500 cash for oil changes for every delivery truck in its fleet.
Assets = decrease, The company paid $3,500 cash. Cash is an asset. As the company paid this amount, the cash asset will decrease. Liabilities = The company paid for the oil changes, which means there is no mention of taking on debt or any other obligations to pay later. Effect: No change Equity = Given that there's an expense (oil changes for delivery trucks) in the transaction, this will decrease net income and, in turn, decrease equity. Effect: Decrease Net Income = decrease Expenses reduce net income. The oil change cost for the delivery trucks is an expense. When the company records this expense, it will reduce the company's net income.
What is the impact on the accounting equation when a current month's utility expense is paid?
Both side decrease Decrease in assets = the cash is reduced by the amount of the utility expense Decrease in Equity = since the expense reduces the net income for the period; it in turn reduces the equity
Lincoln Corp. has bought a machine on Jan 1, 2030 for 31. It sold it on December 31, 2033 for 0. The machine is linearly depreciated over 18 years. The residual value is 10% of the purchase price. Calculate the gain or the loss associated with the second transaction? Indicate a loss with a negative number (e.g., - 10.5)
Calculate the depreciable amount as the initial value minus the residual value. Divide this by the useful life to obtain the yearly depreciation. Multiply the yearly depreciation by the number years between the acquisition and the sale to obtain the accumulated depreciation at the time of sale. Subtract the accumulated depreciation from the initial acquisition price to obtain the book value at the time of sale (do NOT subtract the residual value). subtract the book value from the sale price to obtain the gain (price>book value) or the loss (price<book value)
Accumulated amortization is an example of what type of account?

Which of the following is the entry to be recorded by a law firm when it receives a payment from a new client for a service to be provided in the future?
Debit cash; credit unearned revenue (is a liability) When the law firm receives a payment for a service that it will provide in the future, it means the firm has received cash (or some form of payment) but has not yet earned the revenue from a legal standpoint. It has an obligation to provide the service in the future. Debit cash: the law firm's cash balance increases bc it received payment, so it debits (increases) the cash account. Credit unearned revenue: unearned revenue is a liability account. it represents an obligation of the firm to provide a service in the future because it has already been paid for it. By crediting (increasing) the unearned revenue account, the firm acknowledges this obligation.
Online Inc. purchased a machine at a price of $90,000 on January 1, 2028. Online also paid $5,000 for installation and startup costs. Online also incurred some maintenance costs of $10,000 during 2028. Online expects to be able to sell the machine for scrap parts for $15,000 at the end of the useful life. Assume straight-line depreciation for 2028 is $5,000. What is the useful life of the asset (round to the nearest whole year)?
Depreciation basis = 90,000 + 5,000 - 15,000 = 80,000 These are capitalizable costs because they are necessary to get the machine ready for the use. Useful life: 80,000/5,000 = 16 years

On 7/1/19, the Hines Ward Company, who operates in a tax-free world, purchased a three month casualty insurance policy from the State Farm for $750. What is the account and the amount on the 8/31/19 balance sheet related to this policy ?
Prepaid Insurance = $250 Explanation: When a company purchases an insurance policy that covers multiple periods, the cost of the policy is initially recorded as a prepaid expense (insurance). As time progresses and the coverage periods elapse, the company will recognize the expense related to the elapsed period and reduce the prepaid amount accordingly. Initial purchase = the Hines Ward Company purchased a three-month casualty insurance policy on 7/1/19 for $750 this means the monthly cost of the insurance is 750/3 = 250 Period elapsed until 8/31/19: from 7/1/19 to 8/31/19 two months have passed so 250 x 2 = 500 Prepaid Amount on 8/31/19: Initial prepaid amount: $750 Less: Expense recognized for 2 months: $500 Remaining prepaid amount on 8/31/19: $250
On April 1, 2026, SBD Corp. paid $120,000 for rent on warehouse space one year in advance. On October 1, 2026, SBD Corp. entered into an agreement to rent out a different warehouse it was no longer using. This agreement calls for SBD to receive $8,000 per month from the renter, due and payable at the end of the 4-month lease term. At December 31, 2026, none of the rental payments from the renter had yet been received. If SBD makes the appropriate adjusting entry, how much will be reported on the December 31, 2026 balance sheet as prepaid rent and rent receivable, respectively?
Prepaid Rent for Warehouse Space: SBD Corp. paid $120,000 on April 1, 2026, for one year of rent in advance. By December 31, 2026, 9 months (from April to December, inclusive) of this rent would have been used up. Amount of rent used per month = $120,000 ÷ 12 months = $10,000/month Amount used up in 9 months = $10,000/month × 9 months = $90,000 So, the amount remaining as prepaid rent by December 31, 2026 = $120,000 - $90,000 = $30,000 SBD Corp. entered into an agreement on October 1, 2026, to rent out a different warehouse. The rental agreement was for $8,000 per month, but the payment would only be received at the end of the 4-month lease term. By December 31, 2026, 3 months would have passed (October, November, and December). Rent to be received per month = $8,000 Rent to be received for 3 months = $8,000/month × 3 months = $24,000 This amount, $24,000, is considered rent receivable on December 31, 2026, because the renter owes SBD Corp. this amount but hasn't paid yet. On the December 31, 2026 balance sheet: Prepaid Rent: $30,000 Rent Receivable: $24,000

If an expenditure related to a depreciable asset is incorrectly treated as a capital expenditure, instead of as repairs and maintenance expense, which of the following statements is true?
The correct answer is: the current year's net income will be higher and future depreciation expense will be higher. Explanation: Capital Expenditures: When an expenditure related to a depreciable asset is treated as a capital expenditure, it is added to the asset's carrying amount (book value) on the balance sheet. This amount is then depreciated over the asset's remaining useful life. This means that the entire expenditure isn't immediately expensed in the current year, but spread out as depreciation over several years. Repairs and Maintenance: On the other hand, if the expenditure was treated as repairs and maintenance, it would be expensed entirely in the year it was incurred, thus reducing that year's net income by the full amount of the expenditure. In conclusion, incorrectly treating the expenditure as a capital expenditure will result in higher net income in the current year (because the whole amount isn't immediately expensed) and higher depreciation expense in future years (because the asset's carrying amount has been increased).
