To determine

Organize the transaction data in accounts under an accounting equation.

Explanation of Solution

Percentage of sales method: Credit sales are recorded by debiting (increasing) accounts receivable account. The bad debts is a loss incurred out of credit sales, hence uncollectible accounts can be estimated as a percentage of credit sales or total sales.

It is a method of estimating the bad debts (expected loss on extending credit), by multiplying the expected percentage of uncollectible with the total amount of net credit sale (or total sales) for a specific period. Under percentage of sales method, estimated bad debts would be treated as a bad debt expense of the particular period.

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.

Organize the transaction data in accounts under an accounting equation.

Survey Of Accounting, Chapter 5, Problem 31P

Table (1)

Working note:

(1) Calculate the amount of credit card sales made to customers:

The merchandise sold to credit card customers for $190,000 and the company charges a fee of 4% on sales. So, the credit card expense is ($190,000×4%) $7,600. Thus, the amount of credit card sales made to customers is calculated as follows:

Credit card sales made to customers}= Credit card salesCredit card expense=$190,000$7,600(A)=$182,400

(2) Calculate the amount for uncollectible accounts expense:

Uncollectible accounts expense=Accounts receivable×Rate of interest=$890,000×1%=$8,900

Calculate the amount of interest receivable:

Given: The loan amount is $60,000 and the rate of interest is 8%. So the total interest income is calculated as follows:

Total interest=Loan amount×Rate of interest=$60,000×8%=$4,800(B)

Interest receivable=Total interest×Number of monthsMonths in a year=$4,800(B)×712(Maturity period)=$2,800
