Analyzing
and Recording Transactions
QUESTIONS
1. a. Common
asset accounts: cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, prepaid expenses
(rent, insurance, etc.), office supplies, store supplies, equipment, building,
and land.
b. Common
liability accounts: accounts payable, notes payable, and unearned revenue,
wages payable, and taxes payable.
c. Common equity accounts: common stock and retained
earnings and dividends.
2. A note payable is formal promise, usually
denoted by signing a promissory note to pay a future amount. A note payable can
be short-term or long-term, depending on when it is due, and usually carries an
interest charge based on amount and time. An account payable also references an
amount owed to an entity. An account payable can be oral or implied, and often
arises from the purchase of inventory, supplies, or services. An account payable is usually short-term and
not charged interest.
3. There are several steps in processing
transactions: (1) Identify and analyze the transaction or event, including the
source document(s), (2) apply double-entry accounting, (3) record the
transaction or event in a journal, and (4) post the journal entry to the
ledger. These steps would be followed by
preparation of a trial balance and then with the reporting of financial
statements.
4. A general journal can be used to record any
business transaction or event.
5. Debited accounts are commonly recorded
first. The credited accounts are commonly indented.
6. Expense accounts have debit balances
because they are decreases to equity (and equity has a credit balance).
7. A transaction is first recorded in a
journal to create a complete record of the transaction in one place. (The journal is often referred to as the book
of original entry.) This process reduces
the likelihood of errors in ledger accounts.
8. The recordkeeper prepares a trial balance
to summarize the contents of the ledger and to verify the equality of total
debits and total credits. The trial
balance also serves as a helpful internal document for preparing financial
statements and other reports.
9. The
error should be corrected with a separate (subsequent) correcting entry. The
entry’s explanation should describe why the correction is necessary.
10. The four financial statements are: income
statement, balance sheet, statement of retained earnings, and statement of cash
flows.
11. The income statement lists the types and
amounts of revenues and expenses, and reports whether the business earned a net
income (also called profit or earnings) or a net loss.
12. An income statement user must know what time
period is covered to judge whether the company’s performance is
satisfactory. For example, a statement
user would not be able to assess whether the amounts of revenue and net income
are satisfactory without knowing whether they were earned over a week, a month,
a quarter, or a year.
13. The balance sheet provides information that
helps users understand a company’s financial position at a point in time. Accordingly, it is often called the statement
of financial position. The balance sheet
lists the types and dollar amounts of assets, liabilities, and equity of the
business.
14. (a) Assets are probable future economic
benefits obtained or controlled by a specific entity as a result of past
transactions or events. (b) Liabilities are probable future sacrifices of
economic benefits arising from present obligations of a particular entity to
transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the future as a result
of past transactions or events. (c)
Equity is the residual interest in the assets of an entity that remains after
deducting its liabilities. (d) Net
assets refer to equity.
15. The balance sheet is sometimes referred to as
the statement of financial position.
16. Debit balance accounts on the Research In
Motion balance sheet include: Cash and cash equivalents; Short-term
investments; Accounts receivable; Other receivables; Inventories; Other current
assets; Deferred income tax asset; Long-term investments; Property, plant and
equipment; Intangible assets; Goodwil; Treasury stock
Credit balance accounts on the Research In
Motion balance sheet include: Accounts payable; Accrued liabilities; Income
taxes payable; Deferred revenue; Deferred income tax liability; Common stock;
Additional paid-in capital; Retained earnings; Accumulated other comprehensive income.
17. The asset account with receivable in its account title is: Accounts receivable. The liability with payable in its account title is: Accounts payable.
18. Palm’s revenue account is titled “Revenues.”
19. Nokia calls the asset referring to its
merchandise available for sale: “Inventories.”

The correct answer is f.
Explanation: If a $2,250 debit to
Utilities Expense is incorrectly posted as a credit, the effect is to
understate the Utilities Expense debit balance by $4,500. This causes the Debit column total on the
trial balance to be $4,500 less than the Credit column total.

a. Accounting under IFRS follows the same debit
and credit system as under US GAAP.
b. The same four basic financial statements are
prepared under IFRS and US GAAP: income statement, balance sheet, statement of
changes in equity, and statement of cash flows. Although some variations from
these titles exist within both systems, the four basic statements are present.
c. Accounting reports under both IFRS and US GAAP
are likely different depending on the extent of accounting controls and
enforcement. For example, the absence of controls and enforcement increase the
possibility of fraudulent transactions and misleading financial statements.
Without controls and enforcement, all accounting systems run the risk of abuse
and manipulation.

that created revenues:
b. Accounts Receivable.................................. 1,350
Services Revenue................................. 1,350
Provided services on credit.
c. Cash........................................................... 1,575
Services Revenue................................. 1,575

to customers.]
Transactions
that did not create revenues along with the reasons are:
a. This transaction brought in cash, but this
is an owner investment.
d. This transaction brought in cash, but it
created a liability because the services have not yet been provided to the
client.
e. This transaction changed the form of the
asset from accounts receivable to cash.
Total assets were not increased (revenue was recognized when the
receivable was originally recorded).
f. This transaction brought in cash and
increased assets, but it also increased a liability by the same amount (no
goods or services were provided to generate revenue).
