Accounting 220 Help Week 3
Problem B-05.01
| Harold Frieze owns Euro Lighting, a lighting products store that specializes in energy efficient and aesthetically pleasing fixtures. Sales have grown rapidly due to recent consumer interest in reducing energy consumption for economic and environmental reasons. | |
| Increased sales have brought new challenges. First, the "modern" styling of the fixtures looks great in the store, but consumers often find they clash with other fixtures once they take them home. This has brought about a high rate of return. Harold accepts returns of undamaged goods with original packaging. | |
| Second, many of the fixtures are rather technical and require care when installing them. Customers frequently damage the products (and packaging) when attempting to do an installation. Harold does not accept such goods for return, but has established a policy of refunding a portion of the purchase price as an "allowance" for customers who complain of such problems. | |
| (a) | Prepare a journal entry for each of the following scenarios. |
| A customer purchased a lighting fixture for cash of €350 | |
| A customer purchased a lighting fixture on account for €500 | |
| A customer returned a lighting fixture for a cash refund of €275 | |
| A customer returned a fixture for a credit on account of €600 | |
| A complaining customer received a €100 allowance in cash | |
| A complaining customer received a €70 credit on account | |
| A customer paid their balance on account of €475 | |
| (b) | Calculate Euro Lighting's net sales and gross profit based on the following information, and show how such information would appear on the upper portion of the income statement for the year ending December 31, 20X3. |
| Gross sales, €760,000 Sales returns and allowances, €42,500 Cost of goods sold, €312,000 |

Problem B-05.02
| College Bookstore is facing increased competition from online resellers and electronic media forms. To combat eroding sales, management adopted new discounting policies as follows: | |
| Students are offered a trade discount based on the number of books purchased: | |
| A student purchasing one book gets 0% discount. | |
| A student purchasing two books gets a 10% discount. | |
| A student purchasing three books gets a 20% discount. | |
| A student purchasing four or more books gets a 30% discount. | |
| Students are now offered credit terms at the time of purchase. If the student pays within 30 days of the date of purchase, he or she receives a 3% cash discount. | |
| (a) | Calculate the amount of the sale that should be recorded by College Bookstore for each of the following transactions. How much should be ultimately be collected for each transaction? |
| Student A, 3 books, $425 list price, purchased on August 11, paid on August 19 | |
| Student B, 2 books, $210 list price, purchased on August 18, paid on October 4. | |
| Student C, 1 books, $90 list price, purchased on Sept. 3, paid on Sept. 3 | |
| Student D, 7 books, $1,205 list price, purchased on August 5, paid on Sept. 20 | |
| (b) | Demonstrate the appropriate journal entry to record the sale and subsequent collection from students A and B. |

This spreadsheet includes "If statements" in cells E5 To E8, and cells H5 to H8. "If statements" return alternative values/calculations depending on whether some condition is true or false.
In column E, the "If statement" returns a discount based on the number of books entered in Column C. In column H, the "If statement" determines (based on the number days from sale to payment) if a discount is due, and accordingly calculates the payment.

| Gerloff Supply sells cables, connectors, and other basic wiring components to audio video dealers across the country. Dealers with "preferred status" receive a 20% discount off of list price. All sales are on account, and payment terms are 2/10, n/30. Sales of $1,000 and up (large orders) will ship F.O.B. destination. Orders less than $1,000 (small orders) are always F.O.B. shipping point. However, Gerloff will prepay freight on small orders by "preferred dealers." Otherwise, small orders are shipped freight collect by the common carrier making the delivery. In no event may a customer apply the cash discount terms to freight charges. | |||||

| Gunnison Creamery produces a variety of specialty ice creams and buys ingredients from many suppliers. Each supplier seems to have unique policies about discounts and freight terms. Gunnison Creamery records all purchases "gross" and uses a periodic inventory system. Gunnison recently hired a new bookkeeper and needs your help to develop a template of sample journal entries for different scenarios. For purposes of preparing the template, assume that the purchase is $1,000 and freight is $100. | |||

This problem presents an excellent opportunity to use the solver function. It is found on the Data tab under the Analysis group. (Note: You may need to enable the solver add-in in the Excel options.) In older versions of Excel, this function is called goal seek and is found in the Excel tools menu.
For example, one would construct the basic structure and formulas as shown for the net sales calculations. Then, launch goal seek and set cell "E6" to equal the known value of "$735,000" by changing the unknown cell D5. The value to input into cell D5 is calculated automatically.
You are encouraged to experiment with the solver function/goal seek to solve this problem.

| Morton Corporation and Skyline Corporation each sell playground equipment. Morton Corporation's strategy is to focus on selling quality units at the best possible prices, while attempting to minimize selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A). Skyline Corporation has concluded that many customers will differentiate more on brand than quality, and is promoting its inferior goods with a significant marketing campaign. Study each company's income statement below, and calculate the respective proportion of sales returns, the gross profit margin, and the net profit on sales. Both companies are subject to a 25% tax rate. Assuming no change in SG&A, which company would experience the biggest increase in profit from a 10% increase in net sales? Which company would experience the biggest decline in profit from a 10% decrease in net sales? | |||||

| Seaside Village is a retirement community, and many residents work together on a local charitable auction to raise money to support community endeavors. Basically, volunteers solicit residents and local merchants to donate items for the auction. The night of the auction, volunteers bring in their donated items for display on tables placed around the floor of the town's school gymnasium. Virtually the whole town turns out to bid on items that are up for sale. The lucky purchaser makes payment at a collection booth that is staffed by two of the volunteers. At the end of the evening, the buyers collect their items. A volunteer takes the money home to count. The money is deposited to the charity's bank account on the following day. |
| Following last year's auction, many complaints were heard. One merchant complained that he had donated an expensive LCD television, but it was not offered for sale at the auction. One of the buyers complained that the item she paid for was not to be found at the end of the evening. Another donor complained that he needed a receipt for tax purposes, and another person complained that some people were making up receipts for donations that were never made. |
| The charity's board is considering expanded controls for next year's event, and is considering ten specific proposals received from various volunteers. Which five of these proposals are the most valid strengthening of the control structure? |
| Donors will be sent a thank you letter, which will include a paragraph asking them to confirm that their donated item was present at the auction. |
| Proceeds should be counted and recorded by two or more people immediately following the auction, and then taken directly to the bank for deposit in the night depository. |
| The person taking the money to the bank will be required to perform a bank reconciliation at the end of the month to verify the deposit's posting. |
| All volunteers should be emailed a blank receipt form. Volunteers are encouraged to reprint a generous supply and be sure to issue one to each donor. |
| Prenumbered receipt books (with carbon copy film) should be used for donated items, and a log should be maintained of who received a receipt book. The receipts should be reconciled to donated items. |
| A paid receipt prepared by collection booth volunteers must be presented by a purchaser before being allowed to leave the gym with an item of merchandise. |
| An advertisement will be run in the local paper asking for support of the upcoming auction. The advertisement will include instructions to donors reminding them to always ask for a receipt for their gift, and encouraging them to call in to a special phone number to register to be eligible for a special prize drawing for donors! |
| Only one person at a time will be allowed in the collection booth. Each collection booth volunteer will be limited to a one-hour shift. No volunteer is to remove funds from the booth. |
| The charity's president will be required to perform an audit of the books and records related to the annual event. The president must issue a written audit report. |
| Donated items must be taken to a local storage facility upon receipt. A warehouse custodian volunteer will log the items, and another volunteer will be authorized to lock and unlock the warehouse. |

| The strengths are as follows: |
| Use this problem as an opportunity to generally consider the benefits of limited access to assets, separation of duties, authorization, use of prenumbered documents, and proper independent verification/audit. Consider how the "other five" suggestions might be ineffective or harmful to the control environment. Be prepared to discuss other ideas (there are many -- e.g., logging the bid price and matching with payments, etc.) for improving controls at the auction. |

| Elizabeth Egbert owns a galvanizing plant. Customers bring in their fabricated steel products (like light poles, towers, trailers, etc.), and Egbert dips them into a vat of molten zinc. The zinc bonds to the metal and produces a highly durable corrosion resistant product. | |
| Egbert's primary inventory is molten zinc. Zinc is purchased from suppliers in large blocks of solid material. These blocks are immersed in the heated vat and they melt together with the zinc already in the pool. Egbert generally keeps the vat relatively full, and it is never allowed to cool. | |
| Egbert started the year, 20X8, with 500,000 pounds of zinc in the pool. During the year Egbert purchased 2,800,000 pounds of zinc. At year's end, the pool contained 520,000 pounds of zinc. | |
| (a) | How much zinc was used during 20X8? |
| (b) | Accountants frequently refer to "goods available for sale." Is this concept the same as ending inventory? How much zinc, in pounds, was "available for sale?" |
| (c) | If the beginning inventory cost $1.25 per pound, and purchases during 20X8 cost $1.50 per pound, how much is the "cost of goods available for sale"? |
| (d) | In preparing financial statements for 20X8, to what financial statement elements will the amount you calculated in part (c) be allocated? |
| (e) | If Egbert uses FIFO, how much should be attributed to ending inventory and how much to cost of goods sold? |
| (f) | If Egbert uses LIFO, how much should be attributed to ending inventory and how much to cost of goods sold? |
| (g) | What will be the difference in profitability between choosing the FIFO and LIFO methods? Does is seem reasonable the choice of accounting method can change the reported profit? |

| The Quilting Pad is a retail store that sells materials for custom quilts. The store has a quilting room where quilters gather to sew and visit. | |
| The store's inventory consists of bolts of fabrics, spools of thread, and trays of various batting and backing material. Customers generally select what they need, and pay for what they use. The retail price of goods is clearly marked on the bolts, spools, and trays. The Quilting Pad has virtually no problem with theft or shortages of inventory. | |
| It is virtually impossible to track inventory in any detailed fashion. The store simply marks up all goods by a constant percentage. The mark up formula has been consistently applied to all items in inventory for many years. | |
| The Quilting Pad uses the retail inventory technique. Following is information for 20X7: | |
| Beginning inventory at cost | $ 46,800 |
| Beginning inventory at retail | 78,000 |
| Cost of purchases of inventory during the year | 230,000 |
| At the end of the year, the Quilting Pad's inventory was physically counted and it was determined that $100,000 was the retail value of goods on hand. | |

| Ali Naeem was recently placed in charge of inventory accounting for Sialkot Surgical Supply. This company is located in Pakistan and deals in surgical supplies for global export. The company has been using the last-in, first-out inventory method applied on a perpetual basis. The company's export trade is denominated and settled in dollars, and that currency is used within the company's ledger. | |||||||||
| Ali's responsibility is to bring Sialkot Surgical's inventory accounting into conformity with international accounting standards that have been embraced by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan. As a result of his research, Ali was surprised to learn that LIFO does not have global acceptance and it is not a GAAP method in his country. | |||||||||
| Below is January's preliminary inventory schedule for surgical clamps. This schedule was prepared on a LIFO basis. | |||||||||
| Date | Purchases | Sales | Cost of Goods Sold | Balance | |||||

| (a) | Examine Sialkot's LIFO inventory schedule, and redo the presentation assuming perpetual FIFO. For this problem, you may assume that the beginning inventory would be the same as under LIFO. | ||||||||
| (b) | Examine Sialkot's LIFO inventory schedule, and redo the presentation assuming a moving average method. For this problem, you may assume that the beginning inventory would be the same as under LIFO. | ||||||||
| (c) | Prepare journal entries necessary to reflect the FIFO perpetual application. | ||||||||
| (d) | Show that the Inventory account balance resulting from part (c) agrees with the schedule from part (a). If Ali applied FIFO on a periodic basis, rather than a perpetual basis, would the same results occur? | ||||||||
| (e) | By applying FIFO, rather than LIFO, will Sialkot Surgical's income be increased or decreased? | ||||||||
| (f) | Do you suspect that global divergence in accounting practices can contribute to difficulties in cross-border financing and global trade? |
