On October 30, Cleo Co. purchased a machine for $26,000 and estimates it will use the machine for four-years with a $2,000 salvage value. Using the straight-line depreciation method, compute the machine's first year partial depreciation expense for October 30 through December 31.
$1000 Reason: This is a partial year depreciation. $26,000 - 2,000 = $24,000/4 = $6000 per year. $6000 x 2/12 = $1,000.
On June 1, Harding Co. purchased a machine for $14,000 and estimates it will use the machine for five-years with a $2,000 salvage value. Using the straight-line depreciation method, compute the machine's first year (partial) depreciation expense for June 1st through December 31st.
$2,400 Reason: (14,000-2000)/5 x 7/12=1,400 for a partial year depreciation.
Bina Co. purchased a vehicle on January 1st for $15,000 and estimates it will use the vehicle for eight years with a $3,000 salvage value. Using the double declining-balance depreciation method, compute the vehicle's second year depreciation expense.
$2,812.50: (100%/8=.125) x 2=25%. 15,000 x 25%=3,750 for first year. Second year=(15,000-3750) x 25% =2812.50.
Wen Co. purchased a building for $200,000. Wen paid $20,000 in lawyer and title fees. Wen also paid an additional $15,000 to modify the building in order to accommodate his business needs. Wen should record the cost of the building at:
$235,000
PT Co. purchased land and an existing building for $200,000. In addition, PT paid real estate commissions of $15,000. PT removed the unwanted building and graded the land for a total cost of $35,000. PT should record the cost of the land at:
$250,000
Alin Co. purchases a building for $300,000 and pays an additional $30,000 for title fees and lawyer fees. Alin also pays $20,000 in renovations, including painting, carpet, lighting, etc. Alin should record the cost of the building at:
$350,000
Juno Co. purchased a machine for $10,000 and estimates it will use the machine for four years with a $2,000 salvage value. Using the double declining-balance depreciation method, compute the machine's first year depreciation expense.
$5,000: $10,000 x (.25 x 2) = $5,000.
Arc Co. purchased a piece of equipment for $25,000. At the end of the year, the book value of the equipment is $12,000. The salvage value is 0. How much is accumulated depreciation, using the straight-line method, at the end of the period?
13000
Ring Co. owns a delivery van that was purchased two years ago for $25,000. Ring has depreciated the van for two years at a straight-line amount of $4,000 per year. The book value of this van at the end of the second year would be $
17000
Tops Co. purchases equipment for $12,000 and has been using straight-line depreciation, estimating a 5-year life and $500 salvage value. At the beginning of the third year, Tops decides to use the equipment for a total of 6-years with no salvage value. Compute the revised depreciation for the third year.
1850 Reason: (12,000-500)/5=2,300 per year. $2,300 x 2 years = $4,600 depreciation taken. Book value at beginning of year 3 = $12,000-4,600= $7,400/4 = $1,850.
On January 1, Enco Co. purchases a milling machine for $15,000. The machine is expected to last seven years and have a salvage value of $1,000. Assuming the company uses the straight-line method, depreciation expense should be $ per year.
2000
Juno Co. purchased a machine for $10,000 and estimates it will use the machine for three years with a $2,000 salvage value. It expects to produce a total of 8,000 units as follows: 3,000 during year one; 2,500 during year two; and 2,500 during year three. Using the units-of-production depreciation method, compute the machine's first year depreciation expense.
3000 $10,000 - 2,000 = $8,000. $8,000 / 8000 units = $1.00 per unit. Year one 3,000 x $1.00 = $3,000.
During 20X7, a company purchased a building for $800,000 cash. During 20X7, the company made the following additional expenditures related to the building: ∙ It paid $600 cash for ordinary repairs. ∙ It paid $16,000 cash for extraordinary repairs. ∙ It paid $200,000 cash for an addition to the building. Assume all building-related journal entries were correctly made. Considering only the items specifically mentioned in this problem and ignoring depreciation, what amount would be included in the Building Account as of December 31, 20X7? a. $800,000 b. $816,000 c. $1,000,000 d. $1,016,000 e. $1,016,600
Balance in the Building Account: $800,000 + 16,000 + 200,000 = $1,016,000. d. $1,016,000 The Chapter 8 handout describes what is included in the cost of a tangible asset. You include the costs that are normal and necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use (i.e. the $800,000 purchase price) as well as any "capital expenditures" that increase the asset's capacity or extend the asset's useful life (e.g. the extraordinary repairs and the addition to the building.) When we debit the asset, we are "capitalizing" the cost. Ordinary repairs would not be included (but rather recorded as an expense in the current period.)

Question 20 Answer: On January 15, 20X1 the Lucky Tabby (LT) Corporation (which is a distributor of fancy cat climbing posts, called "trees") purchased 300 cat trees for $65 each. This is the only inventory purchase LT has ever made, and the purchase has already been recorded. Please DO NOT record the purchase again. On February 10, 20X1 LT sold 125 of the cat trees for $110 each. The sale was made on account. Ignore sales tax. Journal Entries (TWO!) made February 10, 20X1: This is similar to the February 10th entry from the Review Journal Entry assignment, and also similar to the Ch. 9 problem but without sales tax. Remember that Revenue and the A/R and/or Cash Received are based on PRICE. When Inventory was purchased, it was recorded at its COST, so we must remove it from the Inventory account and record COGS Expense based on the COST of the inventory. According to the Matching Principle, when we record the sale of "x" items, we must Match to that the cost of "x" items. Thus, both the Sales amount and the COGS amount are computed based on the same number, the # sold. A/R 125($110) 13,750 Sales Revenue 13,750 COGS Expense 125($65) 8,125 Inventory 8,125

(Hint: 20X3 is the first year of ownership.) a. $7,500 b. $6,000 c. $5,500 d. $4,840 e. $3,000 f. $2,000
b. $6,000 The Chapter 8 handout covers the calculation of Double Declining Balance depreciation and points out the most common mistakes students make when working these problems. Straight-line rate = 1 / (Asset's estimated useful life) = 1/5 = .20 Double the straight-line rate = 2 x .2 = .4 DDB depreciation = Depreciation rate x beginning book value = .4 x ($15,000-0) = $6,000. Note that the rate is NOT multiplied by (15,000-4,000) because no depreciation had yet been recorded as of the beginning of the year.
Which depreciation method would lead to the lowest Net Income in the 1st year of an asset's life? a. Straight Line b. Double Declining Balance
b. Double Declining Balance

E-Tech Initiatives Limited issued $500,000, 10-year, 4% bonds on January 1, 20X9 at 94. Interest is payable annually on December 31st . Which one of the following statements is false about this bond issue? a. The company received $470,000 cash when it issued the bond. b. The "Bond Payable" account will include $470,000. c. The bond was issued at a discount. d. Companies use bonds as debt financing
b. The "Bond Payable" account will include $470,000. This was covered in Chapter 10. 94 is the "Price" of the bond and is stated as a percentage of face (par) value. The face (par) value of the bond is $500,000. Investors will pay, and the company will receive, cash of 94% (500,000) = .94(500,000) = $470,000 The "Bond Payable" account will always include the face (par) value of the bond, which is why "b" is false in this question. The difference between the face (par) value and the cash received is either a premium (if the company receives more than the face value) or a discount (if the company receives less). The latter is the case for this problem. Here is the journal entry made by the company: Cash (+A) 470,000 Discount on Bond Payable (+xL, -L) 30,000 Bond Payable (+L) 500,000
The "Inventory" account increased by $100 during 20X2. a. The $100 would be added when computing Cash Flow from Operations. b. The $100 would be subtracted when computing Cash Flow from Operations. c. The $100 would not be used in the computation of Cash Flow from Operations.
b. The $100 would be subtracted when computing Cash Flow from Operations. The purchase and sale of inventory is an operating activity. In the Operations section of the Statement Cash Flows, we adjust net income in order to get cash flow from operations. As on page 8 of the Chapter 12 handout, the building up of inventory is "bad for cash" and leads to a subtraction in the Operating Section, Indirect Method.
What number appears at the BOTTOM of the Statement of Cash Flows? a. Cash generated by or paid for Financing Activities b. The Ending Balance in the Cash Account c. The Beginning Balance in the Cash Account d. Cash generated by or paid for Operating Activities

A company purchases a machine on January 1, 20X7 for $60,000 and expects to use the asset for five years and then sell it for $5,000 after five years. It expects to produce 20,000 units of inventory with the machine, and actually does produce 3,000 units during 20X7 and 4,500 units during 20X8. It uses the "units of production" depreciation method. How much depreciation expense would the company record for 20X8 (the second year of use)? a. $8,250 b. $11,000 c. $12,375 d. $13,500 e. $20,625
c. $12,375 Please see the class example from the Chapter 8 handout. Cost per unit: (60,000 - 5,000) / 20,000 = $2.75 per unit $2.75 per unit x 4,500 units produced in 20X8 = $12,375
This information applies to the next two questions. RecRoom borrowed $18,000 from a bank on December 1, 20X7, and on 12/1 recorded an $18,000, six-month (180 day), 3% Note Payable. RecRoom will pay the principal and all interest on the note's maturity date, May 30 20X8. Assume that RecRoom made any required adjusting journal entry on December 31, 20X7. Hint: A timeline helps! Assume there are 360 days in a year. 12/1/X7 to 12/31/X7: 30 days. 1/1/X8 to 5/30/X8: 150 days. 30 + 150 = 180 days, life of the note. How much Interest Expense would RecRoom include for this Note Payable in its 20X8 Net Income? (20X8 is the year the note payable comes due.) a. $540 b. $270 c. $225 d. $45 e. $0
c. $225 Annual Interest expense = $18,000 x 3% = $540. 12/31/X7 Adjusting Journal Entry: Have incurred but not paid 30 days of interest $540 (30/360) = $45 Interest Expense $45 Interest Payable $45 Question 9: Interest expense for 20X8: Have incurred another 150 days of interest $540 (150/360) = $225 expense incurred during 20X8

Which statement best describes the presentation of depreciation expense in the operating activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows under the Indirect Method? Hints: The Indirect Method is what we covered in class and in the homework. Also, the ENTIRE statement must be true for the answer you choose, so read each possible answer carefully and completely. a. Neither depreciation expense nor accumulated depreciation appears. b. Depreciation expense is subtracted from net income because it represents cash spent. c. Depreciation expense is added to net income because it is a non-cash expense. d. The change in depreciation expense (i.e. this year minus last year) is added to net income because it is a non-cash expense.
c. Depreciation expense is added to net income because it is a non-cash expense. The Indirect Method starts with Net Income and then adjusts it to get cash flow from operations. Depreciation expense reduced Net Income but had no effect on cash flow. We add it back to Net Income, thus removing the effect of the non-cash subtraction.
Which statement is FALSE? ("CF" stands for "Cash Flow") a. Change in cash during the year = end cash balance - beg cash balance b. Beg cash balance + change in cash during the year = end cash balance c. End cash balance + change in cash during the year = beg cash balance d. Operating CF + Investing CF + Financing CF = change in cash during the year
c. End cash balance + change in cash during the year = beg cash balance

The "Common Stock" account increased by $100 during 20X2 because the company issued stock. a. The $100 would be added when computing Cash Flow from Operations. b. The $100 would be subtracted when computing Cash Flow from Operations. c. The $100 would not be used in the computation of Cash Flow from Operations.
c. The $100 would not be used in the computation of Cash Flow from Operations. The common stock account increases when stock is issued. The entry would look like this: Cash (+A) xxx Common Stock (+Equity) xxx Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par (+Equity) xxx (In Chapter 11, we learned that the "Common Stock" account only includes the par value of the stock, and the "Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par" account includes the difference between the cash received and par value.) The cash received from issuing stock is a financing activity and, thus, would not appear in the operating section.

A company purchased a machine for $70,000 on January 1, 20X1, and after using it (and recording depreciation expense on it) for two years, decided to sell the machine. The company received cash proceeds of $20,000. The accumulated depreciation on the machine on the 12/31/20X2 date of sale was $52,500. Which one of the following statements is true regarding the journal entry that would be made on 12/31/X2 to record the sale? a. A loss of $50,000 would be recorded. b. The "Accumulated Depreciation" account would be credited. c. The "Equipment" account would be debited. d. A gain would be credited. e. None of these are true. a, b, c, and d are ALL FALSE.
d. A gain would be credited. Step 1: Book value of asset on date of sale Cost $70,000 - A/D $52,500 = $17,500 Step 2: Compute Gain or Loss = Proceeds $20,000 - Book Value $17,500 = $2,500 gain Step 3: Journal Entry (Required for this problem) Cash (+A) 20,000 A/D (-xA, +A) 52,500 Equipment (-A) 70,000 Gain (+Equity) 2,500 Treat gains like revenue Note that this is NOT the answer: Cash (+A) 20,000 Equipment (-A) 17,500: Equip is NOT credited for book value Gain (+ Equity) 2,500 This is a common mistake students make. The equipment account contains $70,000 and must be cleared entirely when the equipment is sold. And the A/D must also be cleared. ("Equipment and A/D are best friends. They hang out on the Balance Sheet together, and if Equip. leaves, A/D goes with it.") Note also that this is NOT the sale of inventory. Inventory is what we purchase or manufacture and put on our shelves to sell to customers. We do not use inventory ourselves. Above, we are recording the sale of equipment that we have used ourselves.

Which of the following statements is (are) TRUE? a. Depreciation is the allocation of the cost of a tangible (fixed) asset. b. Financial accounting depreciation is not calculated to measure the change in market value of the corresponding asset. c. Consider two identical pieces of equipment, both purchased at the same time at the same cost, used the same way, and sold at the same time for the same amount. If the company uses different depreciation methods for the two assets, there could be a gain on the sale of one asset and a loss on the sale of the other. d. All else held equal, an accelerated depreciation method would lead to lower reported net income than would the straight-line method in the first year of a tangible asset's useful life. e. a, b, c and d are ALL TRUE.
e. a, b, c and d are ALL TRUE a. Depreciation is the allocation of the cost of a tangible (fixed) asset. True. Please see the definition from the Ch. 8 handout. b. Financial accounting depreciation is not calculated to measure the change in market value of the corresponding asset. True. When we compute depreciation expense, we compute the cost to us of using the asset and allocate that cost. We never refer to the current market value of the asset when doing the calculation. c. Consider two identical pieces of equipment, both purchased at the same time at the same cost, used the same way, and sold at the same time for the same amount. If the company uses different depreciation methods for the two assets, there could be a gain on the sale of one asset and a loss on the sale of the other. True. This is stated and demonstrated in the Chapter 8 handout on p. 15. Different depreciation methods lead to different A/D balances and thus different book values. Since the Gain/Loss = Cash Proceeds - Book Value, different book values will lead to a different Gain or Loss. d. All else held equal, an accelerated depreciation method would lead to lower reported net income than would the straight-line method in the first year of a tangible asset's useful life. True. In the Chapter 8 handout, please compare the first year straight-line depreciation expense on page 6 with the first year DDB depreciation expense on page 8. (DDB is an accelerated method; an accelerated method records more depreciation expense in the early years and less in the later years.) The DDB depreciation expense is higher which would lead to lower reported income. Also, please re-read the discussion on comparing depreciation methods in the Chapter 8 handout.
Which of the following statements is (are) true regarding the combined journal entry RecRoom would make on May 30, 20X8, the note's maturity date, to record the payment of principal and interest? a.

The Interest Payable account would be debited. e. a, b, c, and d are ALL TRUE.
e. a, b, c, and d are ALL TRUE. Cash paid for interest on 5/30/X8: 180 days of interest $540 (180/360) = $270 You combine these entries for this question, putting the debits on top and crediting cash for a total of $18,270. Notes Payable 18,000 Interest expense 225 Interest payable 45 Cash. 18270 Principal only 150 days, incurred this period 30 days, clearing payable from 12/31 Cash interest for 180 days + Principal. Cash interest for 180 days + Principal

✓ b. 20X4 Depreciation Expense will be $10,000 a. The "Building" account will have a balance of $280,000. False. $300,000 c. The balance in the Accumulated Depreciation account on 12/31/X4 will be $10,000 False. $20,000 because $10,000 was entered into the account on 12/31/X3 and another $10,000 was entered on 12/31/X4 for a total of $20,000. d. a, b, and c are ALL true. This question covers important concepts, such as the difference between an entry (that records depreciation expense for the current period only, $300,000/30=$10,000 per period) and the balance in a balance sheet account (the A/D account shows the depreciation recorded to date.) 12/31/X3: Depreciation Expense 10,000 Accum. Depn. 10,000 12/31/X4: Depreciation Expense 10,000 Accum. Depn. 10,000 On the 12/31/X4 Balance Sheet: Building 300,000 - A/D (20,000) Book Value 280,000 Also called "Building, net"
