Table (1)

• ■ Asset source: All the transactions which increase assets either by borrowing from creditors (increase liabilities), or by earning operating revenues (increase in stockholders’ equity) are referred to as asset source transactions.
• ■ Asset use: All the transactions which decrease assets either by paying off liabilities (decrease in liabilities), or by paying operating expenses (decrease in stockholders’ equity) are referred to as asset use transactions.
• ■ Asset exchange: All the transactions which increase assets and decrease assets simultaneously, with no effect on the total assets value are referred to as asset exchange transactions.
• ■ Claims exchange: All the transactions which include exchange of liabilities for equity are referred to as claims exchange transactions.

b.

To determine

Record each event in a statements model.

Explanation of Solution

Horizontal statements model: The model that represents all the financial statements, balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows in one table in a horizontal form, is referred to as, horizontal statements model.

Record each event in a statements model.

Table (2)

Working Note:

(1) Compute purchase discount.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Purchase discount = }\left\{\begin{array}{l}\left(\text{Purchases–Purchase returns}\right)\text{×}\\ \text{Purchase discount percentage}\end{array}\right\}\\ \text{= }\left(\text{\$4,400–\$400}\right)\text{×1\%}\\ \text{= \$4,000×1\%}\\ \text{= \$40}\end{array}$

(2)  Compute the cash paid for inventory purchased.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Cash paid for inventory = }\left\{\begin{array}{l}\text{Purchases}–\text{Purchase returns}–\\ \text{Purchase discount}\end{array}\right\}\\ \text{= \$4,000}–\text{\$400}–\text{\$40}\left(1\right)\\ \text{= \$3,960}\end{array}$

(3) Compute sales discount.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Sales discount = Accounts receivable}\times \text{Sales discount percentage}\\ \text{= \$11,000}\times \text{2\%}\\ \text{= \$220}\end{array}$

(4) Compute cash received.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Cash received from customers = Sales}–\text{Sales discount}\\ \text{= \$}11,000–\text{\$220}\left(3\right)\\ \text{= \$10,780}\end{array}$

c.

To determine

Prepare a multistep income statement, statement of stockholders’ equity, balance sheet, and statement of cash flows for Company B.

Explanation of Solution

Multi-step income statement: The income statement represented in multi-steps with several subtotals, to report the income from principal operations, and separate the other expenses and revenues which affect net income, is referred to as multi-step income statement.

Prepare a multistep income statement for Company B for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Company B
Income Statement
For the Year Ended December 31, 2014
Net sales		$9,330
Less: Cost of goods sold (5)		($6,650)
Gross margin		$2,680
Less: Operating expenses:
Transportation-out		($120)
Net income		$2,560

Table (3)

  Working Note:

    (5) Determine the amount of cost of goods sold.

    $\begin{array}{c}\text{Cost of goods sold}=\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Cost of }\\ \text{inventory sold}\end{array}\right)+\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Shrinkage of}\\ \text{ inventory}\end{array}\right)-\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Cost of inventory }\\ \text{returned from }\\ \text{customers}\end{array}\right)\\ \text{=\$6,000}+\text{\$1,450}-\text{\$800}\\ \text{=\$6,650}\end{array}$

Statement of stockholders’ equity: The statement which reports the changes in stock, paid-in capital, retained earnings, and treasury stock, during the year is referred to as statement of stockholders’ equity.

Table (5)

Statement of cash flows: Statement of cash flows reports all the cash transactions which are responsible for inflow and outflow of cash and the result of these transactions is reported as ending balance of cash at the end of reported period.

Prepare the statement of cash flows for Company B for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Company B

Cash flows from financing activities		$0
Net change in cash		$5,060
Add: Beginning cash balance		$8,600
Ending cash balance		$13,660

Table (6)

Working note:

(6) Determine the cash inflow from customers.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Inflow from customers = }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Cash received }\\ \text{from customers }\end{array}\right)–\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Increase in }\\ \text{accounts receivable}\end{array}\right)\\ \text{= \$10,780}\left(7\right)–\text{\$1,450}\left(5\text{a}\right)\\ \text{= \$9,330}\end{array}$

(7) Determine the cash outflow for inventory.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Outflow for inventory = }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Freight paid }\\ \text{for inventory }\end{array}\right)+\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Cash paid to }\\ \text{accounts payable}\end{array}\right)\\ \text{= \$190}\left(1\text{b}\right)+\text{\$3,960}\left(3\right)\\ \text{= \$4,150}\end{array}$
