7- 4

Accounts and Notes Receivable

■ A/R are the expected future


cash receipts of a company.
They are typically small and are
expected to be received within
30 days.
■ N/R are used when longer
credit terms are necessary.
The promissory note specifies
the maturity date, the rate of
interest, and other credit terms.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
7- 5

Value of Receivables

■ Receivables are reported at


their face value less an
allowance for accounts
which are likely to be
uncollectible.
■ The amount which is
actually expected to be
collected is called the net
realizable value (NRV).

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


7- 6

Allowance Method vs. Direct


Write-Off Method
■ GAAP requires that A/R be reported at
NRV. (A/R minus Allowance)
■ This is done using a valuation allowance:
An ALLOWANCE METHOD.
❐ % of Sales (or “Income Statement”) approach.
❐ Aging (or “Balance Sheet”) approach.
■ With the ALLOWANCE METHOD, an
estimate of the amount that will NOT be
collected is recorded in the same period
that the sales revenue is recorded. Thus,
the MATCHING PRINCIPLE is being followed.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
7- 7

Allowance Method vs. Direct


Write-Off Method (continued)
■ The DIRECT WRITE-OFF method violates
GAAP because it does NOT follow the
MATCHING principle.
■ With the Direct Write-off method, no estimate
of bad debts is recorded at the time of the
sale. Rather, only after a specific account is deemed
“uncollectible” is a Bad Debt Expense recorded.
■ Since GAAP is only required if the amounts are
MATERIAL (significant), if the amount of uncollectible
A/R is immaterial the Direct Write-off method may be
used.

7- 8

Transaction Analysis:

■ Assume the following selected events


occurred at Cell-It. For each event:
❐ Determine how the accounting equation
was affected and fill in the horizontal
model. (Assume GAAP must be followed.)
❐ Determine the effect on the financial
statements.
❐ Record the event in t-accounts.

Transaction Analysis:

The following selected events occurred


at Cell-It during 2004.
1. Provided services to customers for $10,000 on
account.
2. Collected $7,000 on account receivables.
3. At year-end it was estimated that 2% of year’s
credit sales will never be collected.
4. Jane Doe’s $50 account was written-off as
“uncollectible”.

Jane Doe.

Before recording Transaction #5:
What happens when an account that has been
written off later pays off his/her account?

① Reinstate the account by recording an


entry that undoes (reverses) the write-off:
❐ increase (debit) Accounts Receivable

❐ increase (credit) Allowance for

Doubtful Accounts (a contra-asset)


② Record the entry to show the cash
collection and A/Rec. reduction:
❐ increase (debit) Cash

❐ decrease (credit) Accounts

Receivable

Summary:
Accounting for Bad Debts
■ Allowance method
❐ GAAP
❐ Required if company has a
significant amount of bad
debts.
❐ Matches bad debt expense
(on the income statement) with
the sale.
❐ Requires an adjusting journal
entry before closing the books.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


7- 50

Summary:
Accounting for Bad Debts
■ Direct Write-off method
❐ Violates GAAP (Matching)
❐ No estimates of bad debts are made,
so no allowance account is used.
❐ Used by small businesses with few
account receivables or large
business with few collection problems.
❐ No entry until time specific account is
deemed “bad” (uncollectible).

Warranties…When to “expense”?
General Principle
■ According to GAAP, the entire
estimated warranty expense must
be recorded in the period the sale
is made, NOT in the period when
the actual warranty cost is paid.
(Matching principle is being followed.)
■ A warranty liability is recorded along with the
expense. This liability is REDUCED whenever cash is
paid to service a product still under warranty.
