Guadalupe, Inc. provided $5,000 of services in Year 1 but did not collect cash from its customers until Year 2.

The Company will recognize $5,000 of revenue in Year 1 and $5,000 of cash flow from operations in Year 2. B. The Company will recognize zero of revenue in Year 1 and $5,000 of cash flow from operations in Year 2. C.

The Company will recognize $5,000 of revenue and $5,000 of cash flow from operations in Year 1.
A Accrual accounting requires that revenue be recognized in the year in which the service is provided. The cash flow is recognized in the year in which it is collected. In this case $5,000 of revenue is recognized in Year 1 when the work was done (service was provided) and $5,000 of cash flow from customers would be recognized in Year 2 when Guadalupe collected the cash.

C. the employees have worked and have been paid for D. the work they completed. will work in the future and will be paid in the future.
A By definition an accrued expense occurs when the expense is recognized before the cash is paid. In the case of an accrued salary expense, the employees would have completed their work and the company would recognize it obligation to pay them in the future. Specifically, the company would recognize an expense (accrued salary expense) and a liability (accrued salaries payable). The accrued salaries payable recognizes the obligation to pay the employees in the future. As a result, recognizing accrued salary expense meets the definition of recognizing an expense before cash is paid.

Accounts payable
_______ requires you to show interest expense in the period it is incurred. (NOTES PAYABLE) EX: Since the interest expense is $2,000 for two years, it is $1,000 per year, or $500 per six month period. When your company prepares its financial statements as of December 31, 2015, it will need to accrue $500 as the interest that is an expense associated with 2015. (purchased July 1, 2015) - The entry to accrue interest is to increase interest expense account on the Income Statement by $500. This reflects the amount of interest incurred during 20015 and correctly charges this amount against the revenue earned in that period. - The other side of this entry is to increase the liability interest payable by $500 to show the balance due as of December 31, 2015. This entry correctly states the Balance Sheet because as of December 31, 2015, the company now owes not only the $10,000 borrowed but also $500 of interest expense.

B The effects shown in the statements model are consistent with paying cash to settle the principal balance of a note payable. Specifically, paying off the principal balance of a note payable will decrease assets (cash) and liabilities (notes payable). The income statement is not affected.

For example, the cash outflow associated with the settlement of accrued interest payable would be classified as an operating activity. Likewise, cash paid directly for interest expense would be an operating activity. Finally, cash paid to acquire a long-term asset would be an investing activity. Since none of these effects are shown in the statements model, these answers cannot be correct.

Add to that the cost of any land purchased during this period. If any land was sold during the period, subtract out your original cost for that land, and the ending balance is your cost in the land you have remaining at the end of the period.

If a company recognizes $5,000 of accrued salary expense on December 31, Year 1, A. on January 1, Year 2 there will be a zero balance in the Accrued Salaries Expense account. B. on January 1, Year 2 there will be a $5,000 balance in the Accrued Salaries Payable account. C. the December 31, Year 1 expense recognition will not affect the cash account. D. All of the answer are correct.
D The recognition of the accrued salary expense on December 31, Year 1 would cause the Accrued Salaries Expense account to increase and the Accrued Salaries Payable account to increase by $5,000. At the end of the Year 1 accounting cycle the expense account would be closed to retained earnings resulting in a zero balance in the account on January 1, Year 2. The Accrued Salaries Payable account is a permanent account that is not closed at the end of accounting cycle. Therefore the balance in the Accrued Salaries Payable account on January 1, Year 2 would be the same as it was on December 31, of Year 1 which is $5,000. Recognizing an accrued expense does not affect the cash account at the time the expense is recognized on December 31, Year 1. Recall that the definition of an accrued expense is that the cash is paid after the expense is recognized.

($2,000 revenue - zero expenses).

If we add in all sales (which could have included some sales which were paid immediately in cash), we will get all the cash collected (which will include both collections from customers paying on account as well as purchases for cash).
account
The liability account _______ increases when inventory is purchased on account, which means that the inventory was received before payment was made. When inventory is purchased on account, both the asset inventory and the liability accounts payable are increased. Notice that this purchase on account increases the totals on the Balance Sheet, and there is no impact on the Income Statement.
accounts payable
This is the flow of the _____1__account: Beginning balance + inventory purchased - amounts paid for inventory = ending balance The beginning balance is the amount you owed your suppliers of inventory at the end of the prior period. (You had received the inventory but had not yet paid for it.) Add in the inventory purchased, which is the inventory you bought during the current period. Subtract out any payments you made for inventory, and the end result is the amount you owe your suppliers of inventory at the end of the period. Notice that for purposes of analysis, you want to include the ENTIRE inventory purchased in this formula, whether or not the purchase was originally made on account. You want to do this because you want the component ______2____ to include everything you paid, whether or not you ran that through the accounts payable system.
accounts payable , amounts paid for inventory
When analyzing ___________, think of the account in this manner: Beginning balance + sales - cash collected from sales = ending balance -At the beginning of each period, the balance is the amount you are owed from your customers. The balance is increased as you make more sales on account and decreased as you collect from your customers. The ending balance is the amount you are still owed.
accounts receivable
When the account _______ increases, it is because a sale has been made for which the cash has not yet been collected. The entry is to increase the Income Statement revenue account (typically called either "fee income" or "sales") and to increase the Balance Sheet account accounts receivable. So at the time of the sale, the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet are both increased.
accounts receivable
