Chapter 3 Activity Solutions

Brief Exercise 3.3: Recording Transactions

On January 18, the issuance of capital stock for $400,000 cash increases Cash (asset) and Owners’ Equity via Capital Stock.

Journal Entry:

Debit: Cash $400,000
Credit: Capital Stock $400,000

On January 22, borrowing $100,000 from the bank increases Cash and Notes Payable (liability).

Debit: Cash $100,000
Credit: Notes Payable $100,000

On January 23, paying $200 for advertising decreases Cash and increases Advertising Expense.

Debit: Advertising Expense $200
Credit: Cash $200

On January 25, providing services for cash increases Cash and Service Revenue.

Debit: Cash $5,000
Credit: Service Revenue $5,000

On January 26, providing services on account increases Accounts Receivable and Service Revenue.

Debit: Accounts Receivable $18,000
Credit: Service Revenue $18,000

On January 31, collecting $4,200 from clients increases Cash and decreases Accounts Receivable.

Debit: Cash $4,200
Credit: Accounts Receivable $4,200

Balance in Cash account on January 31: Initial increases (Jan 18, Jan 22, Jan 25, Jan 26) total:

• Jan 18: $400,000
• Jan 22: $100,000
• Jan 25: $5,000
• Jan 26: $18,000

Total cash inflows before collection: $523,000. After collecting $4,200, the ending balance is:

Cash balance = $523,000 - $200 (advertisement) + $4,200 (collection) = $527,000. The balance is a debit in the Cash account.

Exercise 3.1: Matching Terms with Statements

a. The span of time covered by an income statement — Accounting period

b. The sequence of accounting procedures used to record, classify, and summarize information — Accounting cycle

c. The practice of resolving uncertainty by choosing the lowest income figure — Conservatism (not listed, so answer “None”)

d. An increase in owners’ equity resulting from profitable operations — Net income

e. The principle that dictates when revenue should be recorded — Revenue recognition principle

f. The type of entry used to decrease an asset or increase a liability or equity — Credit entry

g. Offsetting revenue with expenses incurred in generating that revenue — Matching principle

h. Costs of goods and services used up in revenue generation — Expenses (not listed, answer “None”)

Exercise 3.5: Balance Sheet Analysis

Given:

• Assets (End of Year): $176.0 billion
• Assets (Beginning of Year): $116.4 billion
• Liabilities (End of Year): $57.9 billion
• Owner’s Equity (End of Year): ?

Using the accounting equation Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity:

Owner’s Equity (End of Year) = Assets - Liabilities = $176.0B - $57.9B = $118.1B

Liabilities (Beginning of Year): $116.4B (Assets at beginning minus Owner’s Equity at start)

Owner’s Equity (Beginning of Year): Assets - Liabilities = $116.4B - (Liabilities are not provided but can be deduced if needed)

Debit: Accounts Receivable $10,000 (for 10 days’ services at $1,000/day)
Credit: Consulting Revenue $10,000

b. Interest expense attributable to 2016: Since the note is two years, the total interest accrued over the period is $4,500. For the first 6 months, accrued interest is $1,125, which is reported in 2015. The remaining $3,375 will be reported in 2016.
