approved purchase orders were issued for supplies
1. debit expenditures control
2. debit encumbrance control
[2]
Debit encumbrances control
When approved purchase orders are issued, they are recognized in the budgetary accounting system in order to encumber the funds (to put aside funds for that specific use). The appropriate entry is as follows:
DR Encumbrance control
CR Budgetary control
36
order suppliers were received and invoices were approved
1. debit expenditure control
2. credit appropriations control
[1]
Debit expenditures control
When supplies are received that had previously been ordered through a purchase order, the encumbrance entry is reversed and the cost of supplies is recognized as a liability through the following series of entries:
DR Budgetary control
CR Encumbrance control
DR Expenditures control
CR Vouchers payable
37
general fund salaries and wages were incurred
1. deferred inflows of resources
2. debit expenditures control
[2]
General fund salaries and wages are recognized as expenditures of the period incurred. The appropriate entry is as follows:
DR Expenditures control
CR Vouchers payable
38
revenues were earned from a previously awarded grant
1. debit deferred inflows of revenue
2. credit interfund revenues
[1]
Debit deferred inflows of resources
Inflows from a grant are not recognized as revenue until the expenditures for the intended purpose of the grant are incurred. Thus when revenue from a previously awarded grant is earned, the entry would be as follows:
DR Deferred inflows of resources
CR Grant revenues

When an entity is acquired, the fair value of the subsidiary's assets and liabilities is recorded on the parent's books. According to the Valuation Letter provided, the fair value of Boof & Mortimer Holdings’ inventories is $75,000, not $70,000 as reported on the company’s balance sheet. The inventories balance reported in the 1/1/Year 4 DRAFT Combined Pre-consolidation Statement simply combined the $210,000 and $70,000 values reported as inventories on the individual company balance sheets in the Otisius Balance Sheet and Boof & Mortimer Balance Sheet. The inventories balance must be increased by $5,000 to properly reflect the adjustment in Boof & Mortimer Holdings’ inventories to fair value. See consolidation journal entry above.

(98,000)=(138,000)+40,000
When an entity is acquired, the fair value of the subsidiary's assets and liabilities is recorded on the parent's books. For equipment and accumulated depreciation of the acquired entity to be presented properly in the consolidated balance sheet, the net book value (NBV) of the acquired PP&E of the subsidiary entity must be reflected in the statement. The subsidiary's accumulated depreciation account must be zeroed out so that the parent's fixed assets are effectively recorded at their acquisition costs. The entry is:
Account Name Debit Credit
Accumulated depreciation (subsidiary) $40,000
Property, plant, and equipment (subsidiary) $40,000
This journal entry records the net book value of Boof & Mortimer Holdings' property, plant, and equipment on Otisius' books, which is $110,000 ($150,000 cost less $40,000 accumulated depreciation). The consolidation entry for property, plant, and equipment totals ($25,000) as the decrease in the property, plant, and equipment account resulting from the above journal entry is partially offset by the $15,000 increase in the fair value of land, which is required based on the Valuation Letter. U.S. GAAP requires that identifiable assets be marked to fair value upon acquisition.
After reflecting the consolidation entry on the statement, the parent's adjusted consolidated balances for equipment appear as:
Property, plant, and equipment $500,000
Accumulated depreciation (98,000)
The $500,000 property, plant, and equipment value is calculated as follows:
Otisius’ PP&E $375,000
Boof & Mortimer Holdings; PP&E net book value 110,000
Increase in fair value of land 15,000
Consolidated PP&E $500,000

the coupon rate is fixed for the life of the bond, but if market rates increase in Y2,
1. the interest expense will be higher than projected
2. the market value of the bond will decline
[2]
Changes in market rates have no impact on the book value of bonds or interest expense. The market value will decline because higher interest rates in the marketplace will make a fixed coupon bond less attractive.

A is incorrect because transaction costs are not considered in the determination of fair value.
47
which of the following common derivative instruments effectively represents a contingent agreement?
A. stock put option
B. equity swap
[A]
a stock put option is effectively a contingent agreement because the buyer has the option but not the obligation to execute the terms of the put option contract. when the put option is in the money m the buyer will most likely exercise the put option, but when the put option is at the money or out of the money, the buyer would most likely not exercise the put option. it should be noted that the current market price of the stock versus the put option buyer's exercise price will ultimately determine whether this contingent agreement is executed.

with regard to a fair value hedge, hedge effectiveness is a measure of the extent to which the :
A. hedge transaction offsets the exposure to changes in the hedged item's fair value.
B. hedge transaction results in eliminating changes in fair value of the hedged item.
A. a fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset that are attributable to a particular risk. when a hedge is effective, the change in the value of the derivative offsets the change in the value of a hedged item. for an instrument to qualify for hedge accounting, the hedge must be considered highly effective at offsetting the specified risk during the period the hedge is designated.

a new building cost 60,000,000. the building will be initially financed with 30% internal equity (9% cost of equity) with the remainder from a $30,000,000 construction loan(three annual $10,000,000 payments plus interest at 6%) and its general debt facilities (8% weight average interest rate). assuming the company incurred average accumulated expenses of $54,000,000 pertaining to the building construction during the year and had actual borrowing costs of $2,440,000, what amount of capitalized interest cost would be recognized by the company at year-end?
[2,280,000]
the scenario above indicates that internal equity of $18,000,000 initially will be used to finance the construction, with the remaining $42,000,000 financed with debt borrowings.
Because the company incurred $54,000,000 in average accumulated expenses to construct the building during the year, $36,000,000 the borrowed funds were used including $30,000,000 from the construction loan and 60,000 000 from the general debt facilities with capitalized interest as follows.

[4]
Choice "4" is correct. Income tax-basis financial statements recognize events when taxable income or deductible expenses are recognized on the entity's tax return. Non-taxable income and non-deductible expenses are shown on the financial statement and included in the determination of income (and become M-1 adjustments to arrive at taxable income).

what amount of total stockhoder's equity should be reported in D's Dec 31, Y1, consolidated balance sheet?
Choice "3" is correct, $303,000 total consolidated stockholders' equity. Dallas' consolidated stockholders' equity will be the parent company stockholders' equity plus the noncontrolling interest on December 31, Year 1:
Common stock50,000
Additional paid-in capital80,250
Noncontrolling interest33,000
Retained earnings139,750
303,000
The December 31, Year 1 noncontrolling interest of $33,000 is calculated as follows:
Noncontrolling interest, 1/1,30,000*
+ NCI share of net income, 4,000**
- NCI share of dividends(1,000)= $5,000 × 20%
Noncontrolling interest, 12/31, 33,000
* The noncontrolling interest on 1/1 is calculated as follows:
$120,000 acquisition cost = FV of Style x 80%
FV of Style = $150,000
Noncontrolling interest = $150,000 × 20% = $30,000
** The noncontrolling shareholders' share of Style's net income is calculated as follows:
Style retained earnings, 1/1 36,000
+ Net income 20,000(plug)
- Dividends(5,000)
Style retained earnings, 12/31, 51,000
Noncontrolling share of Style's net income = $20,000 × 20% = $4,000

conditions are associated with pledges or receipts provided to a not-for-profit organization in the event that there is :
1. aright of return of contributed resources or release of the promisor from any obligation.
2. measurable performance-related barriers that exist relative to the promise or receipt.
3. measurable performance-related barriers or other barriers relative to the promise or receipt and a right of return of contributed resources or release of the promisor of any obligation.
4. donor restrictions and a right of return of contributed resources or release of the promisor from any obligation.
Choice "3" is correct. Conditions are defined as measurable performance-related barriers or other barriers. These barriers are relative to either a promise to give or a donation received that are further associated with the donorʹs right to require a return of the donation from the recipient or right to rescind the promise to give. Both the barrier and right of return must exist to represent a condition. The existence of conditions relative to donation preclude the recognition of revenue for not-for-profit organizations.
Choice "1" is incorrect. The proposed answer incorrectly identifies donorʹs right of return as the sole component of a condition associated with not-for-profit contributions. Conditions are defined as measurable performance-related barriers or other barriers. These barriers are relative to either a promise to give or a donation received that are further associated with the donorʹs right to require a return of the donation from the recipient or right to rescind the promise to give. Both the barrier and right of return must exist to represent a condition.
Choice "2" is incorrect. The proposed answer incorrectly identifies measurable performance-related barriers as the sole component of a condition associated with not-for-profit contributions. Conditions are defined as measurable performance-related barriers or other barriers. These barriers are relative to either a promise to give or a donation received that are further associated with the donorʹs right to require a return of the donation from the recipient or right to rescind the promise to give. Both the barrier and right of return must exist to represent a condition.
Choice "4" is incorrect. The proposed answer only identifies donorʹs right of return as the sole component of a condition associated with not-for-profit contributions. Conditions are defined as measurable performance-related barriers or other barriers. These barriers are relative to either a promise to give or a donation received that are further associated with the donorʹs right to require a return of the donation from the recipient or right to rescind the promise to give. Both the barrier and right of return must exist to represent a condition. The existence of conditions relative to donation preclude the recognition of revenue for not-for-profit organizations. The existence of a restriction would result in classification of the contribution as revenue with donor restrictions if the contribution were unconditional.
