CHAPTER 3
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. (a) Accountants divide the life of a business into specific time periods so that
they can provide feedback on how the business is doing. The periods chosen are of equal lengths so that the information provided is comparable, period to period. Management usually wants monthly financial statements. Investors want to view the results of publicly traded companies at least quarterly. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) requires financial statements to be filed with annual income tax returns. Consequently, accountants divide the life of a business into specific time periods, such as a month, a three-month quarter, or a year.
(b) A fiscal year is an accounting period that it one year long, but does not need
to start and end on the same days as the calendar year. A calendar year begins on January 1 and ends on December 31.
2. The accrual basis provides useful information for decision making as it reflects
transactions in the period in which they occur. Compared to the cash basis, the accrual basis gives a more realistic measure of the performance and future earnings potential of the business.
3. The law firm should recognize the revenue in April. The revenue should be
recognized in the accounting period in which it is earned (i.e., when the work is done).
4. Expenses of $3,000 ($500 + $2,500) should be deducted from the revenues in
April since April was when the revenue was recognized as earned. Expense recognition is tied to revenue recognition when there is a direct association between costs incurred and the earning of revenue. Wages are the costs related to earning the fee revenue.
5. The college should recognize the revenue equally (1/4 each month) over the
period September to December. This will result in the revenue being recognized in the period the service is provided.
6. Prepaid expenses are costs paid before they are used or consumed. For
example, rent or insurance is often paid in advance. Prepaid expenses need to be adjusted at the end of each accounting period to reflect the fact that part of the asset has been used up or consumed.
7. Roger can determine his supply expense for the semester by adding the amount
of supplies he had at the beginning of the semester to the amount of supplies he purchased during the semester (asset). At the end of the semester, the remaining supplies are counted. The difference between the remaining supplies and the

total of supplies on hand at the beginning of the semester and supplies purchased, gives the supplies used during the semester. The amount used is his supplies expense.
8. No. Depreciation is the process of allocating the cost of an asset to expense over
its useful life in a rational and systematic manner. Depreciation results in the presentation of the carrying amount of the asset, not its fair value.
9. (a) Depreciation Expense is an expense account whose normal balance is a
debit. This account shows the cost that has expired during the current accounting period. Accumulated Depreciation is a contra asset account whose normal balance is a credit. The balance in this account is the total of all the depreciation that has been recognized from the date of acquisition of an asset to the balance sheet date.
(b) Cost includes the amount paid to purchase the asset. Carrying amount is the
cost of the asset reduced by the accumulated depreciation.
10. The Accumulated Depreciation contra asset account is used in order to show both the original cost of an asset and the portion of the cost that has been allocated to expense to date. The Accumulated Depreciation account is offset (deducted) against the related asset account on the balance sheet in order to show the asset`s carrying amount.
11. Unearned revenue exists when cash is received for goods or services to be
provided in the future. It represents a liability and belongs on the balance sheet because the cash has not yet been earned – the company has a future obligation to provide the goods or services. As the business provides the goods or the services, adjusting journal entries are recorded at the end of the period to recognize the corresponding amount of revenue earned that will then appear on the income statement.
12. It is necessary to prepare an adjusting entry to record the revenue earned during
the month and to show the receivable that exists at the end of the month. When the interest payment is received at the beginning of each month, Waiparous will debit (increase) the Cash account and credit (decrease) the Interest Receivable account.
13. If the company prepares monthly financial statements, it is necessary to prepare
an adjusting entry dated January 31 to recognize the expense in the period that it was incurred (January) and to set up the corresponding liability (the company has a future obligation) at January 31. Utility expense is increased and accounts payable is increased.
14. Disagree. It is appropriate to make adjusting entries to accrue for revenue when
revenues have been earned but not yet received in cash or recorded at the statement date. These adjusting entries do not overstate revenues but rather

Solutions Manual 3-3 Chapter 3 © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited.
ensure that revenue is recognized in the period it is earned. 15. Disagree. The Cash account is never involved in adjusting journal entries.
Adjusting entries are intended to implement the accrual basis of accounting. Accrued revenues and expenses are recorded by adjusting journal entries before the cash is received or paid. Prepayments and unearned revenues require adjustments after the cash has been received or paid.
16. Disagree. An adjusting entry affects only one balance sheet account and one
income statement account. 17. Both the trial balance and the adjusted trial balance list the balances of all
accounts and prove the equality of the total debit and credit balances. The trial balance lists the balances in the accounts prior to adjusting entries; the adjusted trial balance lists the balances after all adjustments have been posted. The adjusted trial balance is used to prepare the financial statements.
18. Disagree. Accounts Payable must be included in the adjusted trial balance even
though there have been no adjustments made to it. The account balance must be included for the adjusted trial balance to balance and for the financial statements to accurately portray the company’s financial position.
19. The balance sheet will not balance. The balance sheet must be prepared using
the ending owner`s capital balance that is reported in the statement of owner`s equity. Profit is added to the balance in Owner’s Equity (Capital account) and Drawings are subtracted. The resulting balance then appears on the balance sheet.
*20. Disagree. While the statement is true prior to the preparation of adjusting journal
entries, the balances are correctly stated after recording and posting the adjusting entries. Both approaches yield the same results after adjusting entries have been posted.
*21. This is incorrect. When a revenue account is credited when cash is received in
advance of providing a service, the revenue account is overstated and the liability account is understated. The adjusting entry will debit the revenue account to decrease it and credit the liability account to increase it. When a liability account is credited for cash received in advance of providing a service, the adjusting entry will debit the liability account to decrease it since it is overstated and credit the revenue account to increase it since it is understated.

Had Ouellette originally recorded items 1 though 4 as expenses and items 5 and 6 as revenues, there would have been a requirement to adjust the asset and liability accounts at the end of the fiscal year in order to arrive at accurate balances.

(b) Dec. 31 Telephone Expense ........................ 325 Accounts Payable ...................... 325 (c) Jan. 10 Accounts Payable ........................... 325 Cash ............................................ 325 Taking It Further: The three basic reasons that a trial balance may not contain complete or up to date data are:
1. Some events are not journalized daily because it is not efficient to do so.
2. Some costs are not journalized during the accounting period because they expire through the passage of time not daily transactions.
3. Some items may be unrecorded. The adjustment to record supplies used (Item 1) is an example of the first reason above. It is not practical to record an expense every time supplies are used. The adjustment to record depreciation (Item 2) is an example of the second reason above. The cost of a long-lived asset expires through the passage of time. The adjustment to record the telephone bill (Item 7) is an example of the third reason above. The bill was for the month of December but had not been recorded in the recording of daily transactions.

Truck 2, Accumulated depreciation = $3,889 Carrying amount = $40,000 – $3,889 = $36,111
Taking It Further: The purpose of depreciation is to allocate the cost of a long-lived asset to expense over the useful life of the asset in a systematic and rational manner. Land is not depreciated because it has an unlimited useful life.

PROBLEM 3-6A (Continued) Taking It Further: The carrying amount of the vehicles at Aug. 31, 2014 is $421,200 − $217,620 = $203,580 or a bit less than half of the purchase price. Since the carrying amount is a bit less than half of the purchase price, the vehicles are a bit more than half depreciated though their useful life estimated at 10 years. Consequently the vehicles are slightly more than 5 years old. The carrying amount of the office equipment at Aug. 31, 2014 is $40,320 − $30,240 = $10,080 or 25% of the purchase price. Since the carrying amount is 25% of the purchase price, the office equipment is 75% depreciated though its useful life estimated at 8 years. Consequently the office equipment is 6 years old (75% × 8 years).

PROBLEM 3-7A (Continued) Taking It Further: The balance of the owner’s capital account that appears on the adjusted trial balance on August 31, 2014 does not correspond to the amount of the owner’s capital that appears on the balance sheet at that date. The reason for the difference is that the owner’s capital account in the trial balance does not include the amount of the profit and the drawings taken by the owner for the year ended August 31, 2014.

Taking It Further: The advertising agency has managed to generate a profit for the year of $24,615. This would appear to be a strong result in comparison to the amount of revenue. Your friend should find out how much effort the owner put into the business to generate this profit, without receiving a salary. The profit might be too low for the amount of the work done. A worrisome figure that appears on the balance sheet is the notes payable balance of $30,000. Depending on when this liability is due to be repaid, the business financial position appears weak. As well, there are considerably more liabilities than there is equity which will make the business less attractive as an investment, and lenders will find it a high risk borrower.

PROBLEM 3-9A (Continued) Taking It Further: Agopian Enterprises is performing very well. Profit is positive and expenses represent only 48% of total revenues. A negative indicator in these financial statements is the amount of drawings the owner has taken. This amount exceeds the profit for the year. The financial position of Agopian Enterprises is also positive, total cash and accounts receivable ($22,185) exceeds liabilities (excluding unearned revenues) of $20,410. As long as all accounts receivable are collected there should be adequate cash to pay all outstanding liabilities. If Agopian Enterprises wishes to purchase additional assets, the company may require additional cash. This will have to be obtained from E. Agopian by additional investment of cash or bank financing will have to be obtained.

November and December. It has a profit of $509 which is approximately 42% of the revenue earned in the period. It is better to measure profitability after preparing and posting the adjusting journal entries instead of before. By implementing accrual accounting, a better measure of the amount of revenue and expenses for the accounting period is achieved, and consequently, a fairer report of profit performance.

The company’s balance sheet shows that Cookie Creations has total liabilities of $3,257. All of these liabilities will be due in the coming year. Cookie Creations currently has only $2,954 of cash, but the company also has $675 in outstanding accounts receivable, totalling $3,629. Even though the company has slightly more cash and receivables than liabilities, Natalie may have to borrow additional money from her grandmother in order to purchase additional supplies and equipment to grow her business. She also has not taken any money out of the business as withdrawals to pay her living expenses.

BYP 3-2 COMMUNICATION ACTIVITY
Memorandum
To: From: Student Date: Re: Cash versus accrual basis of accounting for profit The accrual basis of calculating profit recognizes revenues as they are earned and expenses when they are incurred. The cash basis of calculating profit recognizes revenues when cash is received and expenses when cash is paid. The accrual basis of calculating profit is a better measure of performance than the cash method of calculating profit because earnings reflect economic events in the period that they occur. Using the revenue and expense recognition principles ensures that the effect of events are recorded in the same period and provides a better measure of a company’s economic performance. It is possible for management to manipulate profit using both the cash basis and accrual basis of accounting. Using the cash basis, profit can be manipulated by changing the timing of payments, for example deferring payment of expenses. Using the accrual basis, profits can be manipulated by changing estimates in calculating expenses, for example management can increase profit by increasing the useful life of long-lived assets.

BYP 3-3 ETHICS CASE
(a) The stakeholders in this situation are:
Carole Chiasson, controller
The president of Die Hard Company
The shareholders of Die Hard Company
The external users of Die Hard’s financial information (b) 1. It is unethical for the president to place pressure on Carole to
misstate profits by requesting her to prepare incorrect adjusting entries.
2. It is a common occurrence for adjusting entries to be dated
as of the balance sheet date although the entries are prepared at a later date. It is impractical to expect that all adjusting entries could be prepared at December 31. Carole did nothing unethical by dating the adjusting entries December 31.
(c) Carole should not “aggressively” accrue revenues and defer
expenses. But Carole can accrue revenues and defer expenses through the preparation of adjusting entries and be ethical so long as the entries reflect economic reality. Intentionally misrepresenting the company’s financial condition and its results of operations is unethical (it is also illegal).

BYP 3-4 ”PERSONAL FINANCIAL LITERACY” ACTIVITY
(a) Chapter 1 introduced the concept and definition of an asset as a
resource owned and controlled by the entity that is capable of producing future services or benefits. The benefits are generally focussed around the production of revenue to make profits and increase the equity (wealth) of the owner(s).
While education costs resemble payments made by a business
as an investment toward the production of future earning of revenue, there is too much uncertainty to record these costs as assets. Education is generally acquired by a person in the hopes of obtaining knowledge that will be useful in earning employment or other income. This advantage is non transferable and the likelihood of realizing the future production of revenue is uncertain and cannot be reasonably measured. Consequently it should be treated as an expense. When a business spends money training its employees, that cost is also expensed.
(b) The program of study chosen by a student might enhance the
likelihood of earning income if the program of study will help the student in obtaining a profession or a job that is in high demand. However, the risk that education will not lead to better earning potential for the student remains too strong to warrant treating these costs as an asset. Consequently, we would still conclude that education costs should be expensed.
(c) Cost-benefit analysis is unconsciously applied to purchases or
expenditures made by individuals. But the benefit received may be consumed in the present. An example would be the rest and relaxation obtained from a vacation to Hawaii. It is only when the expenditure will result in a future benefit that it can be recorded as an asset.

BYP3-4 (Continued) (c) (Continued) As an education may result in a future benefit, it is more
reasonable to consider recording the cost of your education as an asset than the cost of a vacation that doesn’t have a future benefit. But as already discussed, the benefit is still too uncertain to record your education costs as an asset.
(d) When applying for a loan, an applicant will present to the
financial institution, a list of assets, a list of debts and an employment history to demonstrate an ability to repay the loan. If the assets listed are understated, the loan application might be unsuccessful. If the assets presented to the bank are overstated and the expenses understated, the bank might be more receptive to the loan application. However, if it is later determined that you falsified your application then this could result in the bank calling your loan or in damage to your credit rating.
