EX.03-07 Effect of Omitting Adjusting Entry Accrued salaries owed to employees for October 30 and 31 are not considered in preparing the financial statements for the year ended October 31.

Indicate which items will be erroneously stated, because of the error, on (A) the income statement for the year and (B) the balance sheet as of October 31. Also indicate whether the items in error will be overstated or understated. Income Statement Salaries Expense Understated Net Income Overstated

Balance Sheet Salaries Payable Understated Stockholders' Equity Overstated

In essence, this mistake results in failing to record part of the salaries expense and their corresponding liability. The effect of omitting an adjusting entry on Net Income is the same as the effect on Stockholders' Equity. Also, keep in mind that the accounting equation is a depiction of the balance sheet, so understated liabilities will result in overstated Stockholders' Equity. Learning Objective 2 and Learning Objective 5 . EX.03-11 Adjusting Entry for Supplies The balance in the supplies account, before adjustment at the end of the year, is $4,850. Journalize the adjusting entry required if the amount of supplies on hand at the end of the year is $880. Supplies Expense 3970 Supplies 3970

Set up a Supplies T-account. Purchases are increases to the account. 'On hand' is what is left, or the ending supplies balance. The amount used decreases supplies and is the supplies expense amount. Solve for the expense by keeping in mind that the beginning balance plus purchases (none mentioned) minus the supplies (used) expense equals the ending balance of supplies. Complete your adjusting entry by making sure that it affects at least one income statement account and one balance sheet account. Learning Objective 3 . EX.03-14 Adjusting Entries for Prepaid Insurance The balance in the prepaid insurance account, before adjustment at the end of the year, is $27,000.

Journalize the adjusting entry required under each of the following alternatives for determining the amount of the adjustment: The amount of insurance expired during the year is $20,250.

Set up a Prepaid Insurance T-account. Consider each situation by recalling that prepaid insurance expires and becomes an expense with the passage of time. The insurance expense is the amount needed to arrive at the given ending balance. Complete your adjusting entry by making sure that the entry affects at least one income statement account and one balance sheet account. Learning Objective 3 .

27000 – 6750 = 20250 The amount of unexpired insurance applicable to future periods is $6,750.

The unexpired amount is the ending balance to the account. Learning Objective 3 .

BE.04-01 Flow of Accounts into Financial Statements The balances for the accounts that follow appear in the Adjusted Trial Balance columns of the end-of-period spreadsheet. Indicate whether each account would flow into the income statement, retained earnings statement, or balance sheet.

Revenue and expense accounts flow into the income statement, and asset, liability, and stockholders' equity accounts flow into the balance sheet. Net income and the dividends account flow into the statement of retained earnings. Learning Objective 1.

BE.04-02 Blake Knudson owns and operates Grab Bag Delivery Services. On January 1, 2018, Retained Earnings had a balance of $918,000. During the year, no additional common stock was issued, and $15,000 of dividends were paid. For the year ended December 31, 2018, Grab Bag Delivery reported a net loss of $43,500. Prepare a retained earnings statement for the year ended December 31, 2018. If a net loss is incurred or dividends were paid, enter that amount as a negative number using a minus sign.

Assets consumed or converted to cash or sold within one year or less and liabilities that will be due within a year or less are considered to be current.
