Adam company has 100 units costing $300 in beginning inventory. During the year, the company purchases 900 units for a total cost of $2,880. At the end of the year, a physical count reveals that 200 units remain in ending inventory. If the company uses the FIFO method, cost of goods sold will be

FASB's standard setting process begins when th board adds a project to its technical agenda. List the steps in order in the FASB's accounting standard setting process.

.

Private accounting standard setting bodies in chronological order:

1) Committee on Accounting Procedure 2) Accounting Principles Board 3) Financial Accounting Standards Board

2012, the SEC issued its Final Staff Report in which it concluded that it is not feasible for the US to simply adopt IFRS given:

1) a need for the US to have strong influence on the standard setting process 2) the fact that many laws, regulations and private contracts reference US GAAP 3) the high costs to companies of converting to IFRS

Comprehensive income reporting options:

1) a single, continuous statement of comprehensive income 2) two separate but consecutive statements

FASB standard setting process:

1) board adds a project to its technical agenda 2) the board deliberates at one or more public meetings 3) the board issues an Exposure Draft or Discussion Paper 4) the staff analyzes comment letters 5) the board issues an Accounting Standards Update (research, discussion paper, exposure draft, accounting standard update)

Ethical decision making steps:

1) determine the facts of the situation 2) identify the ethical issue and stakeholders 3) identify the values related to the situation 4) specify the alternative courses of action 5) evaluate the courses of action in terms of their consistency

2011, the SEC recognizes that:

1) different application methods of IFRS could lead to financial statements not being comparable across countries 2) U.S. GAAP provides significantly more guidance about particular transactions or industries than IFRS

Common arguments against the creation of a single set of global accounting standards include:

1) maintaining competition between accounting standard-setting bodies improves quality 2) implementation and enforcement of IFRS varies among nations 3) accounting under IFRS will appear more uniform than it actually is

What would indicate net operating cash flow may not be a good predictor of long-run cash-generating ability

1) pay cash to purchase a 2 year insurance policy 2) customer pays for services provided in a prior perid

Steps at the end of the accounting period

1) prepare an unadjusted trial balance 2) record adjusting entries 3) prepare an adjusted trial balance 4) prepare financials 5) close the temorary accounts

Financial accounting objectives

1) provide information to investors 2) provide information used to evaluate future cash flows

Sarbanes-Oxley act key provisions include:

1) restricting activities of auditors to prevent conflects of interest 2) requiring that corporate executives certify financials 3) requiring documentation and assessing effectiveness of internal controls

SFAC 5 the four criteria that must be met for an item to be recognized in the basic financial statements are:

1) the information about the item is relevant to decision making 2) the item has relevant attributes that are measurable 3) the item meets the definition of an element 4) the information about the item is reliable

647,000 End-of 2019 inventory at end-of-2018 year cost = 640,000 (672,000/1.05) The increase in the end-of-2018 inventory at end-of-2018 dollars is $140,000 (640,000 - 500,000) Adjusting this to end-of-2018 cost is $147,000 (140,000 x 1.05) adding this to the beginning balance = 647,000 500,000 + 147,000

Western company begins the year with $50,000 of inventory on hand. During 2018, Western purchases additional inventory for $100,000 cash. Sales for the year, all on account, totaled $70,000. A physical count determined the cost of inventory at the end of the year to be $110,000. Assuming Western uses a periodic inventory system, the journal entry at the end of the year once the physical count occurs includes:

Deb cost of goods sold $40,000 debit inventory (ending) $110,000 credit purchases $100,000 credit inventory (beginning) $50,000

Cash flows during the first year of operations for the Harman-Kardon Consulting Company were as follows: Cash collected from customers $345,000; Cash paid for rent $41,000; Cash paid to employees for services rendered during the year $121,000; Cash paid for utilities $51,000 In addition, you determine that customers owed the company $61,000 at the end of the year and no bad debts were anticipated. The company owed the gas and electric company $2,100 at year-end, and the rent payment was for a two-year period. Calculate accrual net income for the year

Revenue (345,000 + 61,000) = 406,000 less expenses: Rent (41,000 / 2) = (20,500) Salaries = (121,000) Utilities (51,000 + 2,100) = (53,100) 406,000 - 20,500 - 121,000 - 53,100 = 211,400

What should you tell your friend about the presence of accounting standards in the U.S.? Who has the authority for standard setting? Who has the responsibility?

We have a set of standards known as generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP is a dynamic set of both broad and specific guidelines that companies should follow when measuring and reporting the information in their financials and related notes. The Securities and Exchange Commission has the authority to set accounting standards for companies whose securities are publicly traded but it relies on the private sector to accomplish that task. At the present, the Financial Accounting Standards Board is the private sector body responsible for standard setting
