Toigo Co. purchased merchandise from a vendor in England on November 20 for 500,000 British pounds. Payment was due in British pounds on January 20. The spot rates to purchase one pound were as follows:
November 20 $1.25
December 31 1.20
January 20 1.17How should the foreign currency transaction gain be reported on Toigo’s financial statements at December 31?
A A gain of $40,000 as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
B A gain of $40,000 in the income statement.
C A gain of $25,000 as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
D A gain of $25,000 in the income statement.
A gain of $25,000 in the income statement.
At the date the transaction is recognized, each asset, liability, revenue, expense, gain, or loss arising from the transaction should be measured and recorded in the functional currency of the recording entity by use of the exchange rate in effect at that date. Toiga would record a liability of $625,000 (500,000 x $1.25). At each balance sheet date, recorded balances that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the recording entity should be adjusted to reflect the current exchange rate. These adjustments should be currently recognized as transaction gains or losses and reported as a component of income from continuing operations. Toigo would recognize a gain of $25,000 on the December 31 financial statements based on 500,000 pounds × $1.20 = $600,000 as of December 31.

On January 1, Brecon Co. installed cabinets to display products in customers’ stores. Brecon expects to use these cabinets for five years. Brecon’s year-end multi-step income statement should include:
A One-fifth of the cabinet costs in cost of goods sold
C All of the cabinet costs in cost of goods sold
D All of the cabinet costs in selling, general, and administrative expenses
B One-fifth of the cabinet costs in selling, general, and administrative expenses
Brecon Co. will use the installed cabinets to display its merchandise in customers’ stores, which are fixed assets that would be used to generate day to day sales/revenue. The cost of installing the cabinets will be capitalized and depreciated over a period of 5 years. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis for 5 years which means 1/5th of the cost per year will be charged to the income statement. The cabinets are used to display products for sale, depreciation will be reported under selling expense.
(A) is incorrect because the cabinets are used to display products for sale, so the depreciation i.e. one-fifth of the cabinet costs will be reported under selling expense and not in cost of goods sold.
(C) is incorrect because only the one-fifth cost will be charged to depreciation as part of selling expense and no cost relating to installation of cabinets will be reported in cost of goods sold.
(D) is incorrect because only the one-fifth cost will be charged to depreciation in the income statement under selling, general, and administrative expenses and not all of the cabinet installation cost.

Envoy Co. manufactures and sells household products. Envoy experienced losses associated with its small appliance group. Operations and cash flows for this group can be clearly distinguished from the rest of Envoy’s operations. Envoy plans to sell the small appliance group with its operations. What is the earliest point at which Envoy should report the small appliance group as a discontinued operation?
B When Envoy receives an offer for the segment
C When Envoy first sells any of the assets of the segment
D When Envoy sells the majority of the assets of the segment
A When Envoy classifies it as held for sale
The results of discontinued operations are reported separately from continuing operations. Discontinued operations refers to the operations of a component of an entity that has been disposed of or is still operating, but is subject of a formal plan for disposal. A component of an entity is defined as a segment, reporting unit, or asset group whose operations and cash flows are clearly distinguished from the rest of the entity, operationally as well as for financial reporting purposes. The small appliance group clearly qualifies as a component of an entity. When Envoy classifies the small appliance group as held for sale it is in effect implementing a formal plan for disposal.
Options (B), (C) and (D) are incorrect because they do not satisfy both the conditions to be reported as discontinued operation.

Currently reported net income Comprehensive income
FASB’s conceptual framework explains both financial and physical capital maintenance concepts. Which capital maintenance concept is applied to currently reported net income, and which is applied to comprehensive income?
A Financial capital Physical capital
B Physical capital Physical capital
D Physical capital Financial capital
C Financial capital Financial capital
The financial capital maintenance concept defines income as the change in net resources other than from owner transactions. The financial capital maintenance concept is the capital maintenance concept used in present financial statements and comprehensive income.
In contrast, under the physical capital maintenance concept, a return on physical capital results only if the physical productive capacity of the enterprise at the end of the period exceeds its capacity at the beginning of the period, also after excluding the effects of transactions with owners. The physical capital maintenance concept can be implemented only if inventories and property, plant, and equipment are measured by their current costs.

These items have not yet been realized. In other words, the underlying transaction has not been completed or settled yet. Based on this definition, net income and any owner contribution would obviously not be included in other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income items are classified by their nature within certain classifications such as: foreign currency items; pension adjustments, unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in debt and equity securities; and gains and losses on cash flow hedging derivative instruments. Other comprehensive income would include the gain on the effective cash-flow hedge, the foreign currency translation gain, and the prior service cost not recognized in net periodic pension cost.
Deferred gain on an effective cash-flow hedge $ 8,000
Foreign currency translation gain 2,000
Prior service cost not recognized in net periodic pension cost _(5,000)
Other comprehensive income for year 1 $ 5,000

Green Corp. owns 30% of the outstanding common stock and 100% of the outstanding noncumulative nonvoting preferred stock of Axel Corp. In the current year, Axel declared dividends of $100,000 on its common stock and $60,000 on its preferred stock. Green exercises significant influence over Axel’s operations.
What amount of dividend revenue should Green report in its income statement for the current year ended December 31?
A $0
B $30,000
D $90,000
C $60,000
C $60,000
The investment in the nonvoting preferred stock must be accounted under the cost method because Green does not have the ability to significantly influence the financial and operating policies of the investee by virtue of the preferred stock investment. Therefore, the $60,000 dividend declared on the preferred stock is reported as dividend revenue by Green. The 30% investment in the common stock should be accounted for under the equity method because Green has the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee by virtue of the investment. Under the equity method, the investor recognizes as income its share of the investor’s earnings in the periods in which they are reported by the investee. These amounts are recognized as equity in the earnings of the investee and not as dividend revenue.
