ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1. Yes, this is correct. Virtually every organization and person in our society uses accounting information. Businesses, investors, creditors, government agencies, and not-for-profit organizations must use accounting information to operate effectively.
2. Accounting is the process of identifying, recording, and communicating the economic events of an organization to interested users of the information. The first step of the accounting process is therefore to identify economic events that are relevant to a particular business. Once identified and measured, the events are recorded to provide a history of the financial activities of the organization. Recording consists of keeping a chronological diary of these measured events in an orderly and systematic manner. The information is communicated through the preparation and distribution of accounting reports, the most common of which are called financial statements. A vital element in the communication process is the accountant’s ability and responsibility to analyze and interpret the reported information.
3. (a) Internal users are those who plan, organize, and run the business and therefore are officers and other decision makers.
(b) To assist management, managerial accounting provides internal reports. Examples include financial comparisons of operating alternatives, projections of income from new sales campaigns, and forecasts of cash needs for the next year.
4. (a) Investors (owners) use accounting information to make decisions to buy, hold, or sell ownership shares of a company.
(b) Creditors use accounting information to evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money.
5. No, this is incorrect. Bookkeeping usually involves only the recording of economic events and therefore is just one part of the entire accounting process. Accounting, on the other hand, involves the entire process of identifying, recording, and communicating economic events.
6. Trenton Travel Agency should report the land at $90,000 on its December 31, 2014 balance sheet. This is true not only at the time the land is purchased, but also over the time the land is held. In determining which measurement principle to use (cost or fair value) companies weigh the factual nature of cost figures versus the relevance of fair value. In general, companies use cost. Only in situations where assets are actively traded do companies apply the fair value principle. An important concept that accountants follow is the historical cost principle.
7. The monetary unit assumption requires that only transaction data that can be expressed in terms of money be included in the accounting records. This assumption enables accounting to quantify (measure) economic events.
8. The economic entity assumption requires that the activities of the entity be kept separate and distinct from the activities of its owners and all other economic entities.
9. The three basic forms of business organizations are: (1) proprietorship, (2) partnership, and (3) corporation.
Questions Chapter 1 (Continued)
10. One of the advantages Rachel Hipp would enjoy is that ownership of a corporation is represented by transferable shares of stock. This would allow Rachel to raise money easily by selling a part of her ownership in the company. Another advantage is that because holders of the shares (stockholders) enjoy limited liability; they are not personally liable for the debts of the corporate entity. Also, because ownership can be transferred without dissolving the corporation, the corporation enjoys an unlimited life.
11. The basic accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity.
12. (a) Assets are resources owned by a business. Liabilities are claims against assets. Put more simply, liabilities are existing debts and obligations. Owner’s equity is the ownership claim on total assets.
(b) Owner’s equity is affected by owner’s investments, drawings, revenues, and expenses.
13. The liabilities are: (b) Accounts payable and (g) Salaries and wages payable.
14. Yes, a business can enter into a transaction in which only the left side of the accounting equation is affected. An example would be a transaction where an increase in one asset is offset by a decrease in another asset. An increase in the Equipment account which is offset by a decrease in the Cash account is a specific example.
15. Business transactions are the economic events of the enterprise recorded by accountants because they affect the basic accounting equation.
(a) The death of the owner of the company is not a business transaction as it does not affect the basic accounting equation.
(b) Supplies purchased on account is a business transaction as it affects the basic accounting equation.
(c) An employee being fired is not a business transaction as it does not affect the basic accounting equation.
(d) A withdrawal of cash from the business is a business transaction as it affects the basic accounting equation.
16. (a) Decrease assets and decrease owner’s equity.
(b) Increase assets and decrease assets.
(c) Increase assets and increase owner’s equity.
(d) Decrease assets and decrease liabilities.
17. (a) Income statement. (d) Balance sheet.
(b) Balance sheet. (e) Balance sheet and owner’s equity statement.
(c) Income statement. (f) Balance sheet.
18. No, this treatment is not proper. While the transaction does involve a receipt of cash, it does not represent revenues. Revenues are the gross increase in owner’s equity resulting from business activities entered into for the purpose of earning income. This transaction is simply an additional investment made by the owner in the business.
Questions Chapter 1 (Continued)
19. Yes. Net income does appear on the income statement—it is the result of subtracting expenses from revenues. In addition, net income appears in the owner’s equity statement—it is shown as an addition to the beginning-of-period capital. Indirectly, the net income of a company is also included in the balance sheet. It is included in the capital account which appears in the owner’s equity section of the balance sheet.

(c) Total revenues $90,000

22. Apple’s accounting equation at September 24, 2011 was $116,371,000,000 = $39,756,000,000 + $76,615,000,000.
SOLUTIONS TO BRIEF EXERCISES
BRIEF EXERCISE 1-1
(a) $90,000 – $50,000 = $40,000 (Owner’s Equity).
(b) $40,000 + $70,000 = $110,000 (Assets).
(c) $94,000 – $53,000 = $41,000 (Liabilities).
BRIEF EXERCISE 1-2
(a) $120,000 + $232,000 = $352,000 (Total assets).
(b) $190,000 – $91,000 = $99,000 (Total liabilities).
(c) $800,000 – 0.5 ADVANCE \r 1 ($800,000) = $400,000 (Owner’s equity).
BRIEF EXERCISE 1-3
(a) ($800,000 + $150,000) – ($300,000 – $80,000) = $730,000
(Owner’s equity).
(b) ($300,000 + $100,000) + ($800,000 – $300,000 – $70,000) = $830,000
(Assets).
(c) ($800,000 – $80,000) – ($800,000 – $300,000 + $120,000) = $100,000

Notes payable $25,000
Accounts payable 3,000 28,000
Owner’s equity $19,000
Note that it is not possible to determine the company’s owner’s equity in any other way, because the beginning balance for owner’s equity is not provided.

EXERCISE 1-3
Jill Motta, president of Motta Company, instructed Linda Berger, the head of the accounting department, to report the company’s land in their accounting reports at its fair value of $170,000 instead of its cost of $100,000, in an effort to make the company appear to be a better investment. The historical cost principle requires that assets be recorded and reported at their cost, because cost is faithfully representative and can be objectively measured and verified. In this case, the historical cost principle should be used and Land reported at $100,000, not $170,000.
The stakeholders include stockholders and creditors of Motta Company, potential stockholders and creditors, other users of Motta’s accounting reports, Jill Motta, and Linda Berger. All users of Motta’s accounting reports could be harmed by relying on information that may be unreliable. Jill Motta could benefit if the company is able to attract more investors, but would be harmed if the inappropriate reporting is discovered. Similarly, Linda Berger could benefit by pleasing her boss, but would be harmed if the inappropriate reporting is discovered.
Linda’s alternatives are to report the land at $100,000 or to report it at $170,000. Reporting the land at $170,000 is not appropriate since it may mislead many people who rely on Motta’s accounting reports to make financial decisions. Linda should report the land at its cost of $100,000. She should try to convince Jill Motta that this is the appropriate course of action, but be prepared to resign her position if Motta insists.
EXERCISE 1-4
1. Incorrect. The historical cost principle requires that assets (such as buildings) be recorded and reported at their cost.
2. Correct. The monetary unit assumption requires that companies include in the accounting records only transaction data that can be expressed in terms of money.

CCC1 CONTINUING COOKIE CHRONICLE
(a) Natalie has a choice between a sole proprietorship and a corporation. A partnership is not an option since she is the sole owner of the business.
A proprietorship is the easiest to create and operate because there are no formal procedures involved in creating the proprietorship. However, if she operates the business as a proprietorship she will personally have unlimited liability for the debts of the business. Operating the business as a corporation would limit her liability to her investment in the business. Natalie will in all likelihood require the services of a lawyer to incorporate. Costs to incorporate as well as additional ongoing costs to administrate and operate the business as a corporation may be costly.
My recommendation is that Natalie choose the proprietorship form of business organization. This is a very small business where the cost of incorporating outweighs the benefits of incorporating at this point in time. Furthermore, it will be easier to stop operating the business if Natalie decides not to continue with it once she has finished college.
(b) Yes, Natalie will need accounting information to help her operate her business. She will need information on her cash balance on a daily or weekly basis to help her determine if she can pay her bills. She will need to know the cost of her services so she can establish her prices. She will need to know revenue and expenses so she can report her net income for personal income tax purposes, on an annual basis. If she borrows money, she will need financial statements so lenders can assess the liquidity, solvency, and profitability of the business. Natalie would also find financial statements useful to better understand her business and identify any financial issues as early as possible. Monthly financial statements would be best because they are more timely, but they are also more work to prepare.

(d) Natalie should have a separate bank account. This will make it easier to prepare financial statements for her business. The business is a separate entity from Natalie and must be accounted for separately.

(d) Some key job options in accounting:
Audit: Work in audit involves checking accounting ledgers and financial statements within corporations and government. This work is becoming increasingly computerized and can rely on sophisticated random sampling methods. Audit is the bread-and-butter work of accounting. This work can involve significant travel and allows you to really understand how money is being made in the company that you are analyzing. It’s great background!
Budget Analysis: Budget analysts are responsible for developing and managing an organization’s financial plans. There are plentiful jobs in this area in government and private industry. Besides quantitative skills many budget analyst jobs require good people skills because of negotiations involved in the work.
BYP 1-4 (Continued)
Financial: Financial accountants prepare financial statements based on general ledgers and participate in important financial decisions involving mergers and acquisitions, benefits/ERISA planning, and long-term financial projections. This work can be varied over time. One day you may be running spreadsheets. The next day you may be visiting a customer or supplier to set up a new account and discuss business. This work requires a good understanding of both accounting and finance.
Management Accounting: Management accountants work in companies and participate in decisions about capital budgeting and line of business analysis. Major functions include cost analysis, analysis of new contracts, and participation in efforts to control expenses efficiently. This work often involves the analysis of the structure of organizations. Is responsibility to spend money in a company at the right level of our organization? Are goals and objectives to control costs being communicated effectively? Historically, many management accountants have been derided as “bean counters.” This mentality has undergone major change as management accountants now often work side by side with marketing and finance to develop new business.
Tax: Tax accountants prepare corporate and personal income tax statements and formulate tax strategies involving issues such as financial choice, how to best treat a merger or acquisition, deferral of taxes, when to expense items and the like. This work requires a thorough understanding of economics and the tax code. Increasingly, large corporations are looking for persons with both an accounting and a legal background in tax. A person, for example, with a JD and a CPA would be especially desirable to many firms.

BYP 1-5 DECISION MAKING ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION
(a) The estimate of the $6,100 loss was based on the difference between the $25,000 invested in the driving range and the bank balance of $18,900 at March 31. This is not a valid basis for determining income because it only shows the change in cash between two points in time.
(b) The balance sheet at March 31 is as follows:
CHIP-SHOT DRIVING RANGE
Balance Sheet
March 31, 2014
Assets
Cash $18,900
Buildings 8,000
Equipment 800
Total assets $27,700
Liabilities and Owner’s Equity
Liabilities
Accounts payable ($150 + $100) $ 250
Owner’s equity
Owner’s capital ($27,700 – $250) 27,450
Total liabilities and owner’s equity $27,700
As shown in the balance sheet, the owner’s capital at March 31 is $27,450. The estimate of $2,450 of net income is the difference between the initial investment of $25,000 and $27,450. This was not a valid basis for determining net income because changes in owner’s equity between two points in time may have been caused by factors unrelated to net income. For example, there may be drawings and/or additional capital investments by the owner(s).
BYP 1-5 (Continued)
(c) Actual net income for March can be determined by adding owner’s drawings to the change in owner’s capital during the month as shown below:
Owner’s capital, March 31, per balance sheet $27,450
Owner’s capital, March 1 25,000
Increase in owner’s capital 2,450
Add: Drawings 1,000
Net income $ 3,450
Alternatively, net income can be found by determining the revenues earned [described in (d) below] and subtracting expenses.
(d) Revenues earned can be determined by adding expenses incurred during the month to net income. March expenses were Rent, $1,000; Wages, $400; Advertising, $750; and Utilities, $100 for a total of $2,250. Revenues earned, therefore, were $5,700 ($2,250 + $3,450). Alternatively, since all revenues are received in cash, revenues earned can be computed from an analysis of the changes in cash as follows:
Beginning cash balance $25,000
Less: Cash payments
Caddy shack $8,000
Golf balls and clubs 800
Rent 1,000
Advertising 600
Wages 400
Drawings 1,000 11,800
Cash balance before revenues 13,200

To: Ashley Hirano
From: Student
I have received the balance sheet of New York Company as of December 31, 2014. A number of items in this balance sheet are not properly reported. They are:
1. The balance sheet should be dated as of a specific date, not for a period of time. Therefore, it should be dated “December 31, 2014.”
2. Equipment should be shown as an asset and reported below Supplies on the balance sheet.
3. Accounts receivable should be shown as an asset, not a liability, and reported between Cash and Supplies on the balance sheet.
4. Accounts payable should be shown as a liability, not an asset. The note payable is also a liability and should be reported in the liability section.
5. Liabilities and owner’s equity should be shown on the balance sheet. Owner’s capital and Owner’s drawings are not liabilities.
6. Owner’s capital and Owner’s drawings are part of owner’s equity. The drawings account is not reported on the balance sheet but is subtracted from Owner’s capital to arrive at owner’s equity at the end of the period.

· Both Baltimore firms.
· Great Northern College.
(b) The students should identify the ethical issues, dilemmas, or other considerations pertinent to the situation described in the case. In this case the ethical issues are:
· Is it proper that Greg charged both firms for the total travel costs rather than split the actual amount of $296 between the two firms?
· Is collecting $592 as reimbursement for total costs of $296 ethical behavior?
· Did Greg deceive both firms or neither firm?
(c) Each student must answer the question for himself/herself. Would you want to start your first job having deceived your employer before your first day of work? Would you be embarrassed if either firm found out that you double-charged? Would your school be embarrassed if your act was uncovered? Would you be proud to tell your professor that you collected your expenses twice?
BYP 1-8 ALL ABOUT YOU
(a) Answers to the following will vary depending on students’ opinions.
(1) This does not represent the hiding of assets, but rather a choice as to the order of use of assets. This would seem to be ethical.
(2) This does not represent the hiding of assets, but rather is a change in the nature of assets. Since the expenditure was necessary, although perhaps accelerated, it would seem to be ethical.
(3) This represents an intentional attempt to deceive the financial aid office. It would therefore appear to be both unethical and potentially illegal.
(4) This is a difficult issue. By taking the leave, actual net income would be reduced. The form asks the applicant to report actual net income. However, it is potentially deceptive since you do not intend on taking unpaid absences in the future, thus future income would be higher than reported income.
(b) Companies might want to overstate net income in order to potentially increase the stock price by improving investors’ perceptions of the company. Also, a higher net income would make it easier to receive debt financing. Finally, managers would want a higher net income to increase the size of their bonuses.
(c) Sometimes companies want to report a lower income if they are negotiating with employees. For example, professional sports teams frequently argue that they can not increase salaries because they aren’t making enough money. This also occurs in negotiations with unions. For tax accounting (as opposed to the financial accounting in this course) companies frequently try to minimize the amount of reported taxable income.
(d) Unfortunately many times people who are otherwise very ethical will make unethical decisions regarding financial reporting. They might be driven to do this because of greed. Frequently it is because their superiors have put pressure on them to take an unethical action, and they are afraid to not follow directions because they might lose their job. Also, in some instances top managers will tell subordinates that they should be a team player, and do the action because it would help the company, and therefore would help fellow employees.
BYP 1-9 FASB CODIFICATION ACTIVITY
No solution necessary
BYP1-10 CONSIDERING PEOPLE, PLANET, AND PROFIT
(a) The 5 aspirations relate to the company’s goals related to sustaining its business, its brands, its people, its community and the planet.
(b) i. Support sustainable food and agriculture: Purchased 170 million pounds of organic ingredients since the company’s inception.
ii. Embrace zero waste business practices: Caddies are 100% shrink-wrap free and made from 100% recycled paperboard.
iii. Promote climate action and renewable energy: Installed largest “smart” solar array in North America that provides nearly all of its electrical needs.
iv. Conserve natural resources, protect wild places: Planted 40,000 trees in partnership with American Forests.
IFRS EXERCISES
IFRS1-1
The International Accounting Standards Board, IASB, and the Financial Accounting Standards Board, FASB, are two key players in developing international accounting standards. The IASB releases international standards known as International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The FASB releases U.S. standards, referred to a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or GAAP.
IFRS1-2
Accounting standards have developed in different ways because the standard setters have responded to different user needs. In some countries, the primary users of financial statements are private investors; in others the primary users are taxing authorities or central government planners.
IFRS1-3
A single set of high-quality accounting standards is needed because of increases in multinational corporations, mergers and acquisitions, use of information technology, and international financial markets.
IFRS1-4
Currently the internal control standards applicable to Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) apply only to large public companies listed on U.S. exchanges. If such standards were adopted by non-U.S. companies, users of statements would benefit from more uniform regulation and U.S. companies would be competing on a more “even” playing field. The disadvantage of adopting SOX would be the additional cost associated with its required internal control measures.
