This balance sheet was prepared by Muskrat's bookkeeper and obviously needs some work. As the
new CPA working with this client, you dig a little deeper and come up with the following:
1. The current assets is made up of cash $41,000 (including $19,000 cash restricted for advertising
expenditures to be made two years from now), accounts receivable of $105,000, inventories $90,000, and
less unearned rent revenue of $6,500.
2. The investments section includes the company's pension fund of $145,000 for its employees, and equity and
debt investments totalling $179,500, net of the related fair value adjustment accounts. In this amount is
an investment of $10,500 in Treasury bills purchased on 12/1/20. These bills will mature on February 1,
2021. Also in the $179,500, there are $35,500 in investments management intends to sell in late spring, 2021.
Management intends to hold the rest of the investments for at least the next 2 years.
3. Property, plant, and equipment includes a building $520,000 less accumulated depreciation
$180,000; equipment $225,000 less accumulated depreciation of $90,000; land $148,000 (including $98,000
spent to buy land to be used in an expansion in 2028); and $200,000 for right of use assets (leased
equipment, shown net of amortization).
4. Intangible assets include goodwill $57,500; patents $82,500; and discount on bonds payable
$12,500.
5. Current liabilities include accounts payable $75,000; salaries and wages payable $25,000; interest
payable $10,000; notes payable due in 90 days $37,000; notes payable due over the next 5 years $60,000;
allowance for doubtful accounts $7,500; lease payable $180,000 (due evenly over the next 6 years);
and income taxes payable $20,000. Of the $60,000 note payable, $12,000 is due in 2021.
6. The $450,000 in long-term liabilities consists of $130,000 pension liability and the remainder in bonds
payable. Both obligations are due in 5 years or more.
7. Stockholders' equity has common stock, $1.00 par value, authorized 200,000 shares, 50,000 shares issued
and outstanding, all issued at an average price of $10. In addition, stockholders' equity also includes
dividends payable of $5,000 and retained earnings of $160,000.
