Calculate Sales revenue and sales tax payable
Step 1: Sales revenue = credit to sales revenue / (sales tax rate plus 1)
Step 2: sales tax collected = sales tax rate * sales revenue
Step 3: sales tax payable = Sales tax collected - advanced payments i.e debts in sales revenue account. OR Beginning sales take plus current sales tax and subtract what has been paid
JE of sales with tax is DR cash and CR sales rev and sales tax payable
Calculate Interest payable balance Year 1
Step 1: calculate remaining loan= borrowed amount minus interest of each year
Step 2: calculate interest accrued for months where interest has not been paid in cash= remaining loan amount * rate % * (#/12)
Employees compensation for future absences should be accrued if:
a) employees’ right to receive compensation is attributable to service already rendered
b) liability relates to vested or accumulated rights
c) payment is probable
d) amount can be reasonably estimated
Determine notes payable
Notes payable excluded from current laib is shares of common stock * $ per share. The remaining excluded from owed notes payable is included in current liab b/c current assets will be used to pay off balance
Calculate promised payment
promised pay in future should be expensed prior to start of promised payment = total amount promised / (# years from year 1 to prior promise payment)
Calculate adj balance for compensation expense
= compensation expense before year end adj + salary accrual + bonuses not paid
How to treat common stock issued after the end of year
should be removed from ST liabilities and should be disclosed for financial statements. Entry to correct is DR ST liability and CR LT liability
Calculate net payroll amount
Step 1: Employer FICA tax: wages * FICA rate
Step 2: Gross wages plus Employer FICA tax
F4 M2
Explain difference scenarios on contingency accrue liability or disclosure
Remote = neither accrue nor disclose
Reasonably possible = no need to accrue for liability but disclose
Probable= accrue for liability & disclose. Expenses & liab increases
- Estimate of loss or range of loss must be disclosed with nature and financial impact
- Minimum amount in range is reported as liability when contingent loss is accrued and no amount is better estimate than range of possible loss can be be estimated
- if a most likely amount is given than accrue that over the minimum amount of the range
- If a probable loss is not recorded in F/S it means, no reasonable estimate of loss can be made.
Calculate estimated liability for coupons?
Step 1: calculate coupons expected to be redeemed= sales of candy packages * redemption rate
Step 2: Estimated unredeemed coupons= coupons expected to be redeemed minus redemptions
Step 3: Toys to be redeemed= estimated of unredeemed coupons / $ coupons per toy
Step 4: Estimated liability for coupons = toys to be redeemed * net cost of toys i.e (cost $- $ received)
- Coupons at sale price i.e cash received is recorded as unearned revenue bc revenue is earned when coupons are redeemed and cost is matched
How are gain contingencies treated?
- Gain contingencies are disclosed and reported in F/S only when transaction is complete so not to mislead
- Gain contingencies that are probable and reasonably possible are disclosed as full range of possible settlements
- Gain contingencies GAAP concept is conservatism to anticipate all losses but not gains so to not recognize revenue prior to its realization
Calculate estimated liab for following:
a) under warranties account
Step 1 Calculate initial warranty liab = units sold * estimated warranty cost per unit
Step 2: Calculate esti warranty = initial warranty minus actual expenses
b) for coupons = (redemption* ($ off each box + additional $)) - paid to retailers
c) for on purchase commitments= purchase minus new market value at year end
d) for unredeemed coupons
Step 1: calculate probable additional coupons to be redeemed= probable coupons redeemed minus coupons already processed
Step 2: liability to be accrued = probable additional coupons to be redeemed * net cost
e) for warranty cost = warranty expense minus warranty cost incurred
f) for discounted note receivable that must be disclosed = maturity value. This is disclosed as contingent liability b/c note is “with recourse” and endorser is liable if maker does not pay
Calculate estimated warranty Y2:
Step 1 Calculate warranty liability for each year and total
Step 2 Subtract warranty costs from liability
- When sold, warranty costs are probable and estimable and must be recognized
Calculate warranty expense= % of sales
Other Characteristics of Contingency and Commitments
Reduction in deferred revenue YOY with same # of contracts, will occur when Y2 contracts were signed earlier than before meaning more warranty work would be performed by year-end
When there is a acquisition occurring, the acquirer must record probable amount at the fair value in liability
- Amounts reported pretax gain must be fully awarded and no longer be in contingency
F4 M3
How to treat Current maturities of LT debt
a) include amounts due and payables w/in 1 yr, add them
b) if notes payable is due than take full amount
c) if notes payable is due but as installments starting year than amount divided by # equal payments
Calculate the following LT Liab components?
a) Calculate accrued interest receivable= loan amount * loan % * (1/12)
Difference of proceeds received and accrued interest receivable is amortization of deferred interest income
b) Calculate notes payable on non-interest bearing note is PV of note = non-interest bearing note annual payment *PV of ordinary annuity factor of note %
c) Notes payable is shown in F/S = face value amount - discount at imputed interest rate
d) ) Calculate interest income reported on i/S: Non-interest bearing note face amount * PV factor * interest rate.
Non-interest bearing note is recorded at PV using market interest rate and market interest rate is used to calculate interest note
e) Calculate reported notes receivable of 1st payment: = PV of ordinary annuity of the 9 equal payments market interest rate * annual payment amount
f) A installment notes receivable balance at any time is the present value of the remaining monthly payments discount at interest %
g) An interest expense is imputed interest on non-interest bearing note
h) Identify Y2 interest expense understated: = sum Y2 Accrual minus sum paid in Y2
What of LT Liab should be reported in B/S?
When note does not exceed 1 year its reported at face amount. When note exceeds 1 year than reported at present value= face amount * PV factor of 8%
How to determine recognition of following LT Liab?
a) Recognition of discount on notes receivable occurs when interest is imputed on non-interest bearing note
b) Recognition of deferred charge occurs when commitment to purchase
- An example of entries for these 2 items will be: DR Notes receivable and deferred charges; CR cash and discount on notes receivable
- Discount is calculated by notes receivable amount minus present value which will be provided
F4 M4
Calculate Bond Liability
= cash received - bond issuance costs
OR Calculate Bond Liability in B/S= bond liability + net premium
OR =# issued amount in thousand * bonds at % -cost
What is entry to record original issue of bond?
DR Cash and discount on bonds payable, CR bonds payable
a) Bonds issued ie cash= bonds issued% * maturity value which means bonds issued at % is issued at $ of face value
b) Bonds payable= maturity value
c) Discount= Bonds payable - bonds issued
When bond issued less than FV, its issued at discount not premium
When bond sells more than FV than issued at premium
Calculate proceeds on sale of bond
- Bond rate greater than market rate = bond sell at premium i.e bond proceeds greater than bond issuance $
- Proceeds from bond is PV of bond issued = Present value of principal + PV of bond of interest payments
a) PV of Principal = bonds issue $ * PV of $ 1 factor
b) PV of interest payment= (bond issue $ * market rate) * PV of ordinary annual factor
i = Adjust market rate to reflect interest payments i.e. market rate / semi annual payments. This will be discount rate to calculate PV of principle payments and interest payments
N = is Years * payments i.e semiannual
F4 M5
Calculate value of net bonds payable at Y1 end?
= carrying value + amortization of discount
a) carrying value = (face value * factor present value of $1 on market rate) + (( bond rate * face value) * PV of ordinary annuity on market rate)
b) amortization discount = [(carrying value * market rate) i.e interest expense] minus (bond rate * face value
Stated rate of interest is less than interest rate. What is reported on 1st interest payment date?
stated rate of interest is less than interest rate= bond is issued at a discount = 1st interest payment discount is amortized = interest expense increases and will exceed interest payment
- bond discount account is debited
- The period used for determining interest expense is month of issuance to year end i.e issued June 1 than period is 7 months
Bond issued at premium and amortized using effective interest method?
JE of interest payment accrual = DR interest expense and amortization of premium; CR interest payable
a) Interest expense debit gets smaller as amortization gets larger
b) bonds issued at premium = interest expense decreases
Calculate interest expense for Y2 using effective interest method for amortization
=market rate for comparable bonds which is given* Y2 carrying value
a) Y2 carrying value= Y1 amortization of discount + Y1 carrying value this is given
b) Y1 amortization of discount = (Y1 carrying value * market rate) - (($ par value of bonds * # of bonds issued)* coupon rate %)
How is amortization of discount treated?
amortization of discount of a note is interest expense.
a) Amortization of discount is subtracted from interest expense to compute interest paid on for discount bonds
b) Amortization of premium is added to interest expense to compute interest paid for premium bond
interest expense =face value of bond *bond rate / (12/ # of months from issued to Dec)
What happens when failure to record amortization
a) Failure to record premium amortization = interest expense overstated and bond carrying value overstated b/c amortization of premium reduces interest expense and carrying amount
b) Failure to record discount amortization = interest expense understated and bond carrying value understated
Calculate unamortized premium on bond Y3
Use yield rate when unamortized premium
=Y2 Unamortized premium minus Y3 premium amortized
Y2 Unamortized premium= Y2 carrying amount of outstanding bond -original face value of bond
Y3 premium amortized = (interest paid ie bond % * bond face value) - (interest expense i.e Y2 carrying amount of outstanding bond * effective interest rate)
Calculate bond carrying amount on December when bond issued Jan and interest payable on June and Dec?
=Jan 1 carrying amount minus June Amortization amount.. continue formula to Dec
Jan 1 carrying amount = is given
June Amortization amount = interest expense - interest payment
June Amortization interest expense = (previous carrying value * yield or market rate)/2
June Amortization interest payable = (face value* bond rate)/2
divided by 2 b.c its months
