$11,000 (Beginning Balance) + $559,000 (Sales) - $14,000 (Ending Balance) = $556,000

AMTA, Inc. had the following inventory transactions during the period: March 1..Begin inventory, 10 units @ $5.00 ==$50 March 5 ... Purchased 14 units @ $6 ===$ 84 March 14 ... Purchased 20 units @ $8 ===$ 160 March 28 ... Purchased 16 units @ $10.50 == $ 168 March 30 ... Sold 45 units March 31 ... Ending inventory, 15 units If AMTA uses the average cost inventory method, the amount assigned to the March 31st ending inventory would be?

$115.50 Average cost = (Dollar Cost of beginning Inventory + dollar cost of all purchases) / (# of units in beginning inventory + units purchased) Total Cost = $50 + $84 + $160 + $168 Total Units = 10 + 14 + 20 + 16 = 60 $462 / 60 units = $7.70 per unit Ending Inventory = 15 units @ $7.70 = $115.50

Soupy Soaps purchased a machine on January 1, 2009, for $28,800 cash. The machine has an estimated useful life of 4 years and a salvage value of $7,520. Soupy uses the double-declining-balance method of depreciation for all its assets. What will be the depreciation expense for 2009?

AMTA, Inc. had the following inventory transactions during the period: March 1.... Beginning inventory, 10 units @ $5.00 ==$50 March 5 ... Purchased 14 units @ $6 ===$ 84 March 14 ... Purchased 20 units @ $8 ===$ 160 March 28 ... Purchased 16 units @ $10.50 == $ 168 March 30 ... Sold 45 units March 31 ... Ending inventory, 15 units If AMTA uses the FIFO inventory method, what is their cost of goods sold (COGS) at the end of the period?

$304.50 (10 @ $5) + (14 @ 6) + (20 @ $8) + (1 @ $10.50) = $304.50 OR $50 + $84 + $160 + $10.50 = $304.50

At the end of the current year, Diamond Company's inventory account balance was $50,000 and their COGS was $300,000. They determined that the replacement cost of the inventory was $45,000. After making the adjusting entry to apply the lower-of-cost-or-market rule, what would Diamond Company's COGS be?

$305,000 Entry is to debit (increase) COGS by $5,000 and credit inventory. Thus, COGS increases from $300,000 to $305,000

Peter Pan Corporation had the following transactions in February: February 1 ... Beginning Inventory of 250 purses @ $4 cost each February 19 ...Purchased 750 purses @ $6 cost each February 25... Sold 800 purses @ $20 selling price each February 28.... Ending Inventory of 200 purses If Peter Pan Corporation uses average cost to cost their inventory, how much is their COGS for February?

$4,400 250 @ $4 = $1,000 750 @ $6 = $4,500 ($1,000 + $4,500) / 1,000 units = $5.50 per unit 800 X $5.50/unit = $4,400

Widgets-R-Us, Inc. Use the data below to calculate the information requested in the following question ...February 1, beginning inventory = 100 widgets @ $4 each ...February 19, Purchased 900 widgets @ $6 each ...February 25, Sold 800 widgets ...February 28, Ending Inventory on hand = 200 widgets If Widgets-R-Us uses average cost, how much is their COGS for February?

$4,640 100 units @ $4 = $400 + 900 units @ $6 = $5,400 Total goods before the sale = $5,800/1,000 units = $5.80 COGS = 800 units @ $5.80 per unit = $4,640

$4,800 The February 25 sale sold Inventory from February 19. 800 widgets @ $6 each = $4,800

What is the gain or loss on the sale of an asset that originally cost $6,000, has accumulated depreciation of $2,500, and is sold for $3,000?

$500 loss Book value: $6,000 - $2,500 = $3,500 Loss on sale: $3,500 - $3,000 = $500

Sparky, Inc. purchased a crane at a cost of $80,000. The crane has an estimated residual value of $5,000 and an estimated life of 8 years, or 12,500 hours of operation. The crane was purchased on January 1, 2009 and was used 2,700 hours in 2009 and 2,600 hours in 2010. If Sparky uses the straight-line method, what is the book value of the crane at December 31, 2011 after all adjusting entries have been recorded?

$51,875 ($80,000 cost - $5,000 residual value) / 8 years = $9,375 of S/L depreciation per year. Three years of deprecation have been taken (2009, 2010 and 2011). Therefore, accumulated depreciation = ($9,375 X 3 years) = $28,125. Book Value = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation Book Value = $80,000 cost - $28,125 Accum. Depr Book Value = $51,875

Sparky, Inc. purchased a crane at a cost of $80,000. The crane has an estimated residual value of $5,000 and an estimated life of 8 years, or 12,500 hours of operation. The crane was purchased on January 1, 2009 and was used 2,700 hours in 2009 and 2,600 hours in 2010. If Sparky uses the units-of-production method, what is the depreciation rate per hour for the crane?

$6.00 ($80,000 cost - $5,000 residual value) / 12,500 hours = $6.00 of depreciation per hour

AMTA, Inc. had the following inventory transactions during the period: March 1... Begin inventory, 10 units @ $5.00 ==$50 March 5 ... Purchased 14 units @ $6 ===$ 84 March 14 ... Purchased 20 units @ $8 ===$ 160 March 28 ... Purchased 16 units @ $10.50 == $ 168 March 30 ... Sold 45 units March 31 ... Ending inventory, 15 units If AMTA uses the LIFO inventory method, the ending inventory at the end of March would be?

$80 (10 @ $5) + (5 @ $6) = $80 OR $50 + $30 = $80

A company had net income of $100,000 prior to recording the sale of a machine. The machine was originally purchased for $148,000, had accumulated depreciation of $124,800 and was sold for $13,000. What is the final net income after recording the sale?

$89,800 Book value: $148,000 - $124,800 = $23,200 Loss on sale: $23,200 - $13,000 = $10,200 A loss on sale is similar to an expense in that it reduces net income $100,000 of net income - $10,200 of loss = $89,800

Dakota Corp. purchased equipment at a cost of $320,000 in January, 2001. As of January 1, 2010, depreciation of $160,000 had been recorded on this asset since it was originally purchased. Depreciation expense for 2010 is $40,000. After the adjustments are recorded and posted at December 31, 2010, what are the balances for the Equipment and Accumulated Depreciation?

Equipment Accumulated Depreciation $ 320,000 $ 200,000 $160,000 (Accumulated Depreciation at Jan. 1, 2010) + $40,000 (Depreciation Expense for 2010) = $200,000 (Accumulated Depreciation at Dec. 31, 2010)

If prices are falling, which cost flow assumption produces the highest COGS?

FIFO

If prices are rising, which cost flow assumption produces the highest ending inventory?

FIFO

During a period of deflation (falling prices), the inventory cost flow assumption that will result in reporting the lowest ending inventory on the balance sheet is?

FIFO LIFO assumes you are selling the new (lower priced items) and the older (more expensive stuff) is in ending inventory. FIFO assumes you are selling the old (higher priced items) and the newer (less expensive stuff) is in ending inventory. So, LIFO has the older (higher priced stuff) in ending inventory; FIFO has the new, cheaper stuff in ending inventory.

What are the three cost flow assumptions

FIFO, LIFO, Average Cost

Define Average Cost method for inventory

Find the average cost of the inventory; ie, on 1/10 you have 200 frogs at $.40 each for a total of $80 then you purchase 100 frogs at $.55 each for a total of $55. Then you add up the total ($135) and divide it by the 300 frogs in inventory to get $.45 per frog. Then when the customer purchases the COGS is $.45 per frog.

LIFO

Which inventory cost flow assumption results in the lowest ending inventory during a period of increasing prices.

LIFO

Which inventory method is viewed as an "income statement" approach because current costs of inventory flow through COGS?

LIFO

During a period of inflation (increasing prices), the inventory cost flow assumption that will result in reporting the highest cost of goods sold (COGS) on the income statement is:

LIFO LIFO assumes you are selling the new (higher priced items) and FIFO assumes you are selling the old (lower priced items). So, LIFO has higher COGS and FIFO has lower COGS.

Which inventory cost flow assumption results in the highest gross profit during a period of decreasing prices?

LIFO With DECREASING Prices, LIFO will have Lower COGS than FIFO (LIFO has current costs in COGS and these are lower than older costs). Since Gross Profit is Revenue minus COGS, LIFO will have lower COGS and HIGHER Gross Profit.

Define LIFO

Last in First out- The most recent inventory is sold first

Lower of Cost or market

We record depreciation expense because of the

Matching Concept We record depreciation expense because we are using up the asset to generate revenues. If we are estimating that we are using the machine over 60 months, then we need to match the expense of the asset to the revenue that is being generated over the 60 months.

The idea that all expenses incurred in generating revenues should be recognized in the same period as those revenues is called the

Matching Principle

Merchandise Inventory is credited for $500 Accounts Payable would be reduced (debited) for $500 and Merchandise Inventory would be reduced (credited) for $500. Note that this does NOT affect COGS at ALL; it reduces the COST OF INVENTORY (because Fry's is returning the inventory to General Mills)

Bashas purchases $10,000 of cheese on credit from Kelloggs. Bashas uses a perpetual inventory system. If Bashas pays the balance due within the discount period of 2/10, net 30, what effect does the payment have on Bashas' financial statements?

Merchandise Inventory is decreased by $200 Response Feedback: When a company takes a purchase discount (2% of $10,000 or $200), they credit (reduce) cash for $9,800, debit (reduce) Accounts Payable by the full $10,000 and the discount reduces (credits) Merchandise Inventory. The discount is reducing the COST OF OUR INVENTORY. (there is no purchase discounts account in a perpetual inventory system!).

Safeway purchases cereal from General Mills on credit. The cereal is sent from General Mills to Safeway as FOB shipping point. When does Safeway record the purchase and who generally pays the shipping cost in this situation?

Purchase is recorded when goods are shipped by General Mills; Safeway pays the shipping charges. FOB Shipping Point means the title changes hands when goods are shipped and then the buyer (Safeway) is responsible for shipping charges.

Sometimes in F.O.B Shipping point, the seller pays for freight and is reimbursed by the buyer later (buyer is responsible for shipping charges). Journal entry for seller? Journal entry for buyer?

Seller: (we will say shipping charges are 100) Debit Accounts receivable 100 Credit cash 100 Buyer: debit inventory 100 credit accounts payable 100

Honeydukes orders 2,000 of inventory on account F.O.B shipping point, terms of 1/10, n/30 on May 28th. It ships on June 1st and arrives June 3rd. On June 4th because some of the product was damaged, they receive a 100.00 credit. On June 6th they return 200 worth of inventory that was incorrect. They pay the full balance of what they owe on June 9th, taking advantage of the 1% discount. What is the journal entry?

The original A/P was 2,000 They reduced the A/P by 300 making the current amount they owe 1700. The 1% discount is 17 so they owe 1683 6/9 Debit A/P 1,700 Credit cash 1,683 Credit Inventory 17

The terms were 2/10 so any amount paid in 10 days gets a 2% discount, so they get the 2% discount. The original sale was for 1,800 but they got an allowance of 40 and returned goods of 360 for a total of 1,400 owed. They get a 2% discount= 28.00 so they owe 1,378 Credit accounts receivable for 1,400 Debit cash 1,372 Debit sales discounts 28

There is no journal entry
