EYE OPENERS
1. The objective of most businesses is to
maximize profits. Profit is the difference
between the amounts received from
customers for goods or services provided
and the amounts paid for the inputs used to
provide those goods or services.
2. A manufacturing business changes basic
inputs into products that are then sold to
customers. A service business provides
services rather than products to customers.
A restaurant such as Applebees has
characteristics of both a manufacturing and
a service business in that Applebees takes
raw inputs such as cheese, fish, and beef
and processes them into products for
consumption by its customers. At the same
time, Applebees provides services of
waiting on its customers as they dine.

3. The corporate form allows the company to


obtain large amounts of resources by
issuing stock. For this reason, most
companies that require large investments in
property, plant, and equipment are
organized as corporations.
4. The stakeholders of a business normally
include owners, managers, employees,
customers, creditors, and the government.
5. Simply put, the role of accounting is to
provide information for managers to use in
operating the business. In addition,
accounting provides information to other
stakeholders to use in assessing the
economic performance and condition of the
business.

6. No. The business entity concept limits the


recording of economic data to transactions
directly affecting the activities of the
business. The payment of the interest of
$1,850 is a personal transaction of Rebecca
Olson and should not be recorded by
Aquarius
Delivery Service.
7. The land should be recorded at its cost of
$88,000 to Dependable Repair Service. This
is consistent with the cost concept.
8. a. No. The offer of $725,000 and the
increase in the assessed value should
not be recognized in the accounting
records.
b. Cash would increase by $725,000, land
would decrease by $375,000, and
stockholders equity would increase by
$350,000.
9. An account receivable is a claim against a
customer for goods or services sold. An
account payable is an amount owed to a
creditor for goods or services purchased.
Therefore, an account receivable in the
records of the seller is an account payable
in the records of the purchaser.
10. The business incurred a net loss of
$145,000 ($565,000 $420,000).
11. The business realized net income of
$180,900 ($919,500 $738,600).
12. Net income or net loss
Retained earnings at the end of the period
Cash at the end of the period

As in many ethics issues, there is no one right answer. A fired researcher at the
company reported on this issue in these terms: The company covered up the
first report, and the local newspaper uncovered the companys secret. The
company was forced to not locate here (Collier County). It became patently clear
that doing the least that is legally allowed is not enough.

Ex. 125
1. All financial statements should contain the name of the business in their
heading. The retained earnings statement is incorrectly headed as Ora
Tasker rather than Galaxy Realty. The heading of the balance sheet needs
the name of the business.
2. The income statement and retained earnings statement cover a period of
time and should be labeled For the Month Ended November 30, 2008.
3. The year in the heading for the retained earnings statement should be 2008
rather than 2007.
4. The balance sheet should be labeled as of November 30, 2008, rather than
For the Month Ended November 30, 2008.
5. In the income statement, the miscellaneous expense amount should be listed
as the last expense.
6. In the income statement, the total expenses are incorrectly subtracted from
the sales commissions, resulting in an incorrect net income amount. The
correct net income should be $9,800. This also affects the retained earnings
statement and the amount of retained earnings that appears on the balance
sheet.
7. In the retained earnings statement, the additional issuance of capital stock
should not be added to retained earnings as of November 1, 2008. The net
income should be presented, followed by the amount of dividends, which is
subtracted from the net income to yield a net increase in retained earnings.
8. Accounts payable should be listed as a liability on the balance sheet.
9. Accounts receivable and supplies should be listed as assets on the balance
sheet.
10. The balance sheet assets should equal the sum of the liabilities and
stockholders equity.

SPECIAL ACTIVITIES
SA 11
1. Acceptable professional conduct requires that Chester Hunter supply
Belgrade National Bank with all the relevant financial statements necessary
for the bank to make an informed decision. Therefore, Chester should
provide the complete set of financial statements. These can be
supplemented with a discussion of the net loss in the past year or other data
explaining why granting the loan is a good investment by the bank.
2. a. Owners are generally willing to provide bankers with information about
the operating and financial condition of the business, such as the
following:
Operating information:
description of business operations
results of past operations
preliminary results of current operations
plans for future operations
Financial condition:
list of assets and liabilities (balance sheet)
estimated current values of assets
owners personal investment in the business
owners commitment to invest additional funds in the business
Owners are normally reluctant to provide the following types of
information to bankers:
Proprietary operating information. Such information, which might hurt
the business if it becomes known by competitors, might include special
processes used by the business or future plans to expand operations
into areas that are not currently served by a competitor.
Personal financial information. Owners may have little choice here
because banks often require owners of small businesses to pledge
their personal assets as security for a business loan. Personal financial
information requested by bankers often includes the owners net worth,
salary, and other income. In addition, bankers usually request
information about factors that might affect the personal financial
condition of the owner. For example, a pending divorce by the owner
might significantly affect the owners personal wealth.

b. Bankers typically want as much information as possible about the ability


of the business and the owner to repay the loan with interest. Examples of
such information are described in (a).
c. Both bankers and business owners share the common interest of the
business being successful. If the business is successful, the bankers will
receive their loan payments on time with interest, and the owners will
increase their personal wealth.

SA 12
The difference in the two bank balances, $90,000 ($140,000 $50,000), may not
be pure profit from an accounting perspective. To determine the accounting
profit for the six-month period, the revenues for the period would need to be
matched with the related expenses. The revenues minus the expenses would
indicate whether the business generated net income (profit) or a net loss for the
period. Using only the difference between the two bank account balances
ignores such factors as amounts due from customers (receivables), liabilities
(accounts payable) that need to be paid for wages or other operating expenses,
additional
investments that Dr. Dejong may have made in the business during the period or
dividends paid during the period.
Some businesses that have few, if any, receivables or payables may use a
cash basis of accounting. The cash basis of accounting ignores receivables
and payables because they are assumed to be insignificant in amount. However,
even with the cash basis of accounting, additional investments during the period
and any dividends paid during the period have to be considered in determining
the net income (profit) or net loss for the period.

b. Other factors that Kathy should consider before discussing a long-term


arrangement with the Racquet Club include the following:
Kathy should consider whether the results of operations for June are
indicative of what to expect each month. For example, Kathy should consider
whether club members will continue to request lessons or use the ball
machine during the winter months when interest in tennis may slacken.
Kathy should evaluate whether the additional income of $380 per month from
Advantage is worth the risk being taken and the effort being expended.
Kathy should also consider how much her investment in Advantage could
have earned if invested elsewhere. For example, if the initial investment of
$1,500 had been deposited in a money market or savings account at 3%
interest, it would have earned $3.75 interest in June, or $45 for the year.
Note to Instructors: Numerous other considerations could be mentioned by
students, such as the ability of Kathy to withdraw cash from Advantage for
personal use. Unlike a money market account or savings account, some of
her investment in Advantage will be in the form of supplies (tennis balls,
etc.), which may not be readily convertible to cash. The objective of this case
is not to mention all possible considerations, but rather to encourage
students to begin thinking about the use of accounting information in
making business decisions.

As can be seen from the balance sheet data in the case, Enron was financed
largely by debt as compared to equity. Specifically, Enrons stockholders equity
represented only 17.5% ($11,470 divided by $65,503) of Enrons total assets. The
remainder of Enrons total assets, 82.5%, were financed by debt. When a
company is financed largely by debt, it is said to be highly leveraged.
In late 2001 and early 2002, allegations arose as to possible misstatements of
Enrons financial statements. These allegations revolved around the use of
special purpose entities (partnerships) and related party transactions. The use
of special purpose entities allowed Enron to hide a significant amount of
additional debt off its balance sheet. The result was that Enrons total assets
were even more financed by debt than the balance sheet indicated.
After the allegations of misstatements became public, Enrons stock rapidly
declined and the company filed for bankruptcy. Subsequently, numerous
lawsuits were filed against the company and its management. In addition, the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Justice Department, and Congress
launched investigations into Enron.
Note to Instructors: The role of the auditors and board of directors of Enron
might also be discussed. However, these topics are not covered in Chapter 1 but
are covered in later chapters.
