1)Take accumulated depreciation then add
Take the cost of the asset less the accumulated depreciation and then subtract the carrying value-This is your loss
Then add the new depreciationa nd this is your total accumulated depreciation

Question 8

Depletion amount calcultion

Answer 8

Take amount purchased then add extraction costs then subtract amount to be sold for then divide by anticipated units extracted if you were calculating depreciatione expense it would be number of sold units that count

Question 9

multiple depreciable base each year by new number of remaining years over sum of years digit base

Question 10

If carrying value is greater than fair value it is

Answer 10

impaired

Question 11

Youd correct a depreciation error in the year it happened

Answer 11

if uou have an asset that costs 900k then you have 6 year life in year 3 you catch the error you correct it if have impairment loss take 900-300=600 for annual 150k depreciation then 600-200=400k/4 years since caught in year 3

Question 12

Account analysis to solve for accumulated depreciation when given
Ichor Co. reported equipment with an original cost of $379,000 and $344,000, and accumulated depreciation of $153,000 and $128,000, respectively, in its comparative financial statements for the years ended December 31, Year 10, and Year 9. During Year 10, Ichor purchased equipment costing $50,000, and sold equipment with a carrying value of $9,000. What amount should Ichor report as depreciation expense for Year 10?

Answer 12

First you take the beginning of the cost for year 9
344,000
Add 50000 purch
=394000
solve for the x that gets you to ending

379000
=394-379=15K then take out the 9k for 6K AD
To solve for year 10 AD
Take 128000 AD for year 9
solving for what to add =159000-128000=31000which is your ad
solving for this below=153+6K=159000

move the 6000 over for ad
153000 ending balance

Question 13

Impaairment losses are shown as income from continuing operations before tax
To test for impairment undiscount future cash flows is compared to carrying value if

Answer 13

impairement exists fair value can be used to determine this loss

Taake note of shipping terms was anythubg shipped in this month fob shipping point that should have been included. If using average cost nrv should always be lessthan average cost if average cost is greater than nrv you need to adjust look at the amount adjusted then multiply by amount of those units we have this will be a reduction of the balance of inventory
Sales you should report average cogs and this will also be a reduction of inventory
any other adjustments were there items that were not included but should have been were there items that couldn’t be found so need to excluded multiply these amounts by their average cot then net together and these are your other adjustments

Question 46

Orr Co. prepared an aging of its accounts receivable at December 31 and determined that the net realizable value of the receivables was $250,000. Additional information is available as follows:

Allowance for uncollectible accounts at 1/1 – credit balance

28,000

Accounts written off as uncollectible

23,000

Accounts receivable at 12/31

Uncollectible accounts recovery

5,000

For the year ended December 31, Orr’s uncollectible accounts expense would be:

Answer 46

First you taake the beginning balance for allowance \
28000

Then add the 5,000 that were collected to increase it

Subtract out the 23000 that were uncollectible

Then the ending will be 20000

work backward 23+20 =43
43-5=38 38 less what gives you 28 10

Question 47

uestion

alllowance for uncollectible accounts
begin balance 30000
Write off
40,000
end balance 8%of 300K
=24000

On June 12, Pitt received from Burr a remittance in full payment amounting to:

Answer 49

First Take your sales price
5000
then multiply by your first discount 30%
this gives you a 1500 discount subtract the discount to see what you owe 3500
then multiply by the 20% discount of what you owe
then subtract that amount out 700
which brings you to 2800 you paid in the 15 day discount period so you get 2% discount on the 2800 you now ow which is
56 you now owe 2744 but you have to pay back delivery costs of 200 so you pay 2944

TBs and gen ledger and sub ledger reconciliations

Answer 53

Look to sub and GL first if there is an asset on one that is not on the other that’s the first adjustment.

Question 60

On borrowings aand capitalizing interest to get the weighted average cost of borrowings for year
interest expense for year
aavoidaable interest for you
caoitaalized interest for year
interest expense for yeaar

Answer 60

Take each borrowing and multiply by months held till next borrowing
On next borrowing add previous borrowing amount to it.
Then to get interest for year multiply each borrowing by each interest rate for that borrowing then add all up
For aavoidaable interest take the amount of interest chosen for that borrowing
Then take the total weighted average of borrowings for the year and subtract out what you borrowed
Then you need to add the interest rate on other borrowings times your amount you could have avoided
You take the two interest amounts and add together this is numerator denominatir is your two borrowing amounts
then that is your rate for what should be applied for the avoidable interest multiply this by the ending amount of difference pf weighted average and what you borrowed that could have been avoided then add this interest amount to the interest that could have been avoided
Interest capitalized will be the lower of total for year and avoidable
Interest expense will be the difference between the two
