Description

Chapter 5 Outline (pages 214 - 241) Receivables and Sales PART A: Recognizing Accounts Receivable Revenue Recognition 1. Provide a good or service 2. Collection is probable (being realized or realizable) Accounts Receivables (A/R) (also called trade receivables)—arise from Credit Sales (providing a good or service and allowing the customer to pay later) also known as “sales on account.” Mow & Grow provides $500 of monthly lawn maintenance services for Customer A. Customer A does not pay at the time services are rendered. Accounts Receivable (A+) Lawn Maintenance Revenue (R+SE+)

500 500

Other Receivables—Nontrade receivables (less common) -tax refunds receivable -interest receivable -loans extended to others -Notes receivable (formal credit arrangement) Trade Discount—represents a reduction in price for products/services (for bulk purchases, etc.) Mow & Grow offers a 40% discount on their $500 monthly lawn maintenance service to new customers for the first month of service. Customer B takes advantage of the discount and gets her lawn maintained for January. Mow & Grow records the revenue at the reduced amount ($500 x (1-.40) = $300). Customer B does not pay at the time services are rendered. Accounts Receivable (A+) Lawn Maintenance Revenue (R+SE+)

300 300

Sales discounts (Contra Revenue)—reduces the amount the customer owes the company if paid within a specific time period; encourages early payment by the customer. 2/10, n30 Customer B is offered a sales discount of 2% if she pays her invoice within 10 days. Customer B pays the invoice within the 10 days.

Customer B has paid her account in full. By paying her invoice within 10 days she takes advantage of the sales discount, she saves $6, 2% of the invoice amount. ($300 x .02 = $6)

If no contra revenue accounts are present “Sales” and “Net Sales” would be the same amount. (I.e., Sales – 0 = Net Sales.) Practice Kelly’s Jewelry reported the following amounts at the end of the year: Total jewelry sales $650,000; sales discounts = $15,000; accounts receivable = $50,000; sales returns = $40,000; sales allowances = $20,000; accumulated depreciation = $9,000. Determine net sales for Kelly’s Jewelry:

End of Period Adjustment for Contra Revenues Illustration 5-3 (p. 222) Record an adjusting entry for estimated contra revenues for sales made during the period. PART B: Valuing Accounts Receivable Valuing A/R is important because sometimes credit sales are not collected. Net Realizable Value—the amount of cash the company expects to collect. Uncollectible accounts—(bad debts) customer accounts that the company no longer expects to collect. Accounting for Bad Debts Matching principle -match expense (bad debt expense) with the revenue (credit sale) earned this period Direct Write-Off Method -this method is not GAAP -does not do a good job of “matching” -Used for income tax purposes--IRS -Allowance Method—estimate bad debt—estimate the amount of the Accounts Receivable that will not be collected. Allowance for uncollectible accounts (“AUA”)—(Contra Asset “XA”) contra to accounts receivable A/R

Allowance for uncollectible accounts XX

Reporting Accounts on the Financial Statements Assuming the company had Accounts receivable of $20,000 at the end of the period and an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $2,000 and bad debt expense of $1,800. Accounts Receivable, net shown on the balance sheet would be shown at its net realizable value of $18,000. Accounts Receivable (A) - Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (XA) Accounts Receivable, net of allowance for uncollectible accounts (“net book value” or “net realizable value” or “Net A/R”)

$20,000 (2,000) $18,000

Bad Debt Expense shown on the Income Statement would be $1,800.

Estimating Uncollectible Accounts An estimate of bad debts is made at the end of the accounting period to match the cost of credit sales (bad debt expense) with the revenue credit sales allowed the company to record during the period. The estimate is incorporated in the company’s books through an ADJUSTING ENTRY and the entry increases the allowance for uncollectible accounts and bad debt expense. Income Statement Balance Sheet An Allowance Method—Percent of Receivables Method -> (% of A/R we DON’T expect to collect) -

management estimates a percent of ending accounts receivable they expect to be uncollectible

Amount of A/R we don’t expect to collect thus making It a contra asset. Take % and multiple by receivables. -

the ending balance in the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (“AUA”) is determined based on the estimate (% of uncollectible accounts x ending balance of A/R).

-

record the adjusting entry to get the ending balance in the Allowance for uncollectible accounts (AUA) to be equal to the amount computed (% of uncollectible accounts x ending balance of A/R).

Bad debt expense only shows up once in an accounting period.

Practice At the end of the year, D Company’s balance in the allowance for uncollectible accounts (AUA) was $500 (credit) before adjusting entries. The balance in Accounts Receivable is $30,000. The company estimates that 15% of the accounts will not be collected over the next year. Prepare the adjusting entry for the allowance for uncollectible accounts. $30,000*.15=$4,500 Amount to be uncollectible A/R

An Allowance Method--Aging of Accounts Receivable focus is on the Accounts Receivable account on the balance sheet older Accounts Receivable have an increased chance of being uncollectible determine the ending balance in the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts based of the aging of Accounts Receivable record the adjusting entry to get the ending balance in the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts to the appropriate amount. WATCH mhhe.com/4fa19 (1:36 minutes) Example: By the end of the year the D Company’s Account Receivable shows an ending balance of $30,000 aged as follows: Age Amount in A/R (days past due) 0 – 60 $22,000 61 – 120 5,000 121 – 180 2,000 More than 180 Should be 00 T ending balance 00 in allowance

WRITING OFF AN ACCOUNT RECEIVABLE -Balance sheet accounts only (Asset accounts) These are the only two account that change when writing off an account.

Accounts receivable (A)

Bad debt is only recognized once. At the end.

Allowance for uncollectible accounts (XA) “goes down” NOTHING ELSE CHANGES

-Write off the account as soon as it goes “bad” -Net A/R does not change

Prior to writing-off Customer W’s A/R the allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit (normal) balance of $8,300 and their A/R balance was $285,000.

______________________________________________________________________________ Receivables Analysis Receivable Turnover Ratio The receivables turnover ratio is a measure of the effectiveness of a company’s Credit Granting and Collection Activities. Receivables Turnover =

Net credit sales Average net trade accounts receivable

If you cannot determine net credit sales, use net sales as the numerator in the above equation. “Average” is calculated as follows: (last years ending balance + this years ending balance)/2 Average collection period= 365 days/Receivable turnover Average length of time it takes to collect A/R
