EXERCISE 1-12
Note to instructors: Students may list the accounts in the following statement in any order within
the assets, liabilities, and shareholders equity classifications as they have not yet learned how
to classify/order accounts.
(a) 1. The South Face Inc. is an external user of accounting information in assessing the
credit-worthiness of their customer.
(b) 1. In deciding to extend credit, South Face would focus its attention on the statement of
financial position of the new customer. The terms of credit they are extending require
repayment in a short period of time. Funds to repay the credit would come from cash
on hand and other current assets. The statement of financial position of the new
customer will show if the company has enough current assets to meet its current
obligations.
2. Since the investor intends to hold the shares for a long period of time (at least five
years), s(he) should focus on the companys income statement. The income
statement reports the companys past performance in terms of revenues, expenses,
and profit. This is generally regarded as a good indicator of the companys future
performance.
3. The Caisse is interested in two thingsthe ability of the company to make interest
payments on a monthly basis for the next three years and the ability to repay the
principal amount at the end of the three years. In order to evaluate both of these
factors, the focus should be on the statement of cash flows. This statement provides
information on the cash the company generates from its operations on an ongoing
basis. It also tells whether the company is currently borrowing or repaying debt.
4. The CEO should focus on the statement of cash flows as this statement clearly sets
out the cash generated from operating activities and the amount the company has
spent in the past on purchasing equipment and paying dividends.
Note to instructors: Other answers may be valid provided they are properly supported.
PROBLEM 1-2A
(a) 1. The professors should incorporate their business as a private corporation because of
their concerns about legal liabilities. A corporation is the only form of business that
provides limited liability. Since the professors do not need access to large amounts of
investment capital, a private corporation provides the limited liability advantage the
professors need.
2. Joseph should run his bicycle rental shop as a proprietorship because this is the
simplest and least costly form of business organization to establish and eventually
dissolve. He is the only person involved in the business and is planning to operate for
a limited time.
3. Robert and Tom should form a public corporation when they combine their
operations. This is the best form of business for them to choose because they expect
to raise funds in the coming year. A public corporation will enable them to raise
significant amounts of funds for their manufacturing company. A corporation may also
receive more favourable income tax treatment.
4. A partnership would be the most likely form of business for Darcy, Ellen, and Meg to
choose. It is simpler to form than a corporation and less costly.
5. Herv is most likely to select to operate his business as a private corporation. This
will assist him with the liability of storing goods for others. He will also be able to raise
funds to purchase equipment, rent space in airports, and hire employees. It is easier
to raise funds through a private corporation rather than a proprietorship or
partnership.

(b) The financial statements must be prepared in the order of (1) income statement, (2)
statement of changes in equity, and (3) statement of financial position. This is because
each subsequent financial statement depends on information contained in the previous
statement. The profit from the income statement flows to the retained earnings account
on the statement of changes in equity. The shareholders equity totals in the statement of
changes in equity (for example, for common shares and retained earnings) then flow to
the shareholders equity section of the statement of financial position.

(c) The company is generating less cash from operating activities (+$20,000) than it is using
in total for its investing activities ($35,000) and the payment of dividends ($10,000). The
company, however, is making up the deficiency by generating cash from financing
activities. Cash from financing activities is not a renewable source of cash and usually
entails future cash payments in the form of interest on debt, principal repayment, and
dividend payments for shares.

(b) The income statement reports the profit or loss for the period. This figure is then used in
the statement of changes in equity, along with dividends and any issues (or repurchases)
of shares to calculate the balances in common shares and retained earnings at the end
of the period. These ending balances are then used in the statement of financial position
to determine shareholders equity and complete the accounting equation.
PROBLEM 2-6A
(a)
Working capital = Current assets Current liabilities
Chen = $407,200 $166,325 = $240,875

Current liabilities
Chen Caissie
$407,200 $190,400
= 2.4 :1 = 1.4 :1
$166,325 $133,700
Chen is significantly more liquid than Caissie. It has a higher current ratio and more
current assets available to pay current liabilities as they come due.
(b)
Total liabilities
Debt to total assets =
Total assets
Chen Caissie
Caissie is considerably less solvent than Chen. Caissie's debt to total assets ratio of
52.8% is almost double that of Chens ratio of 29.3%. The lower the percentage of debt
to total assets the lower the risk that a company may be unable to pay its debts as they
come due.

Chen Caissie
Chen Caissie
Based on the price-earnings ratio, investors believe that Chen will be more profitable
than Caissie in the future. It is difficult to compare earnings per share because Caissie
has more common shares issued than Chen, as well as having a different debt structure.
PROBLEM 2-10A
(a) The advantage of the fair value basis of accounting is that it represents a more up-to-date
measurement of the value of the asset reported. Consequently, the amounts reported are more
relevant to the financial statement users. The disadvantage of the fair value basis of accounting
and corresponding advantage of historical cost is that historical cost is more reliable and shows
the amount paid for the asset. The historical cost might provide a more faithful representation
because it can be easily verified and is neutral.
(b) The reason a company might choose to adopt the fair value basis of accounting for real estate
is that assets reported on the statement of financial position will have higher values than they
would using the historical cost of these assets. It is inherent in the nature of real estate that the
land will increase in value over time. Creditors will find the fair value a more relevant basis for
making lending decisions. The increase in the assets will have a corresponding increase in
equity.
(c) The reason a company might choose to adopt the cost basis of accounting for real estate is that
assets reported on the statement of financial position will have more faithful representation
because it reports the actual cost of the asset when it was acquired and this measurement can
be easily verified and it is neutral. There is also a significant cost to obtaining reliable fair value
information on a regular basis to be reported in the financial statements.
(d) When comparing real estate companies, the reader is well advised to read the
accounting policy note to the financial statements disclosing the measurement policy
used for the real estate property. One would need to determine the corresponding fair
value for real estate for the company using the cost basis of accounting. In fact, this
information is required to be disclosed for real estate companies even if they adopted the
cost basis of accounting to improve comparability and disclosure. Otherwise, trying to
compare businesses that use different bases of accounting would be very difficult.

(c) This suggestion is not a good idea. Journals are used to record transactions. Ledgers are not
intended to be used to capture the recording of transactions, but to tabulate the effects of
transactions in separate accounts. The balances arrived at in the ledger are then used to
communicate information to the users of the financial statements. If one attempted to omit the use
of journal entries, one could not retrace the transactions as they originated in the journal. One
would only see one side of a transaction at a time by looking at an account in the ledger. It would
become very confusing and unruly to try to keep track of transactions.

because it recognizes revenue when earned and expenses when incurred. This
provides a better measurement of performance because it records what has happened
regardless of the movement of cash. This also enhances the predictive ability of the
income statement.

Adj. 1,600
The balance in Unearned Revenue on January 1, 2015 was $2,350 ($750 + $1,600).
Therefore the equipment is 5 years, 1 month old. It would have been purchased on
January 1, 2010.
Since the prepaid insurance is $1,600, we can assume that 4 months ($1,600 $400
= 4) of the policy remain. Consequently, if it expires at $400 per month, then the policy
is $3,200 $400 = 8 months old and it was purchased on June 1, 2014.

Income Tax Payable
Derive the balance by working backward up through the T account. The balance in Income
Tax Payable on January 1 was $$150 ($150 $100 + $100). It is assumed that income tax
instalments are paid monthly and that the balance owing at December 31 (January 1) was
the adjustment required at year-end after the income tax return was prepared. This balance
owing must be paid within three months of the companys year-end.

(e) The financial position and performance of a company can be evaluated in terms of
its liquidity, profitability and solvency.
Liquidity
Rainbow Lodge does not appear at first glance appear to have a healthy liquidity
position. Although it has a positive cash balance of $6,400, the company has a
current ratio of only 0.8:1 ($24,960 $31,610). This seems to indicate initially that
there are insufficient current assets to repay the companys current liabilities. It
should be noted that simply looking at the current ratio does not tell the whole story.
Of the total current liabilities, 56% ($17,800 $31,610) is made up of unearned
revenue, which will not require the payment of cash. On the other hand, there are
current assets that are not going to turn into cash such as supplies and prepaid
insurance. Excluding supplies, prepaid insurance and unearned revenue, the
revised current ratio is 1.4:1 [($24,960 $1,340 $3,640) ($31,610 $17,800)].
Profitability
According to the income statement, Rainbow Lodge was profitable in 2015 with after tax
profit of over $44,000. The lodge also has a positive balance in retained earnings,
which indicates it has been profitable in the past.
The company also paid out dividends of $2,000 in the past year, which may be of
interest to your friend if your friend is considering an income investment.
Solvency
The company has a large mortgage, which is in line with the cost of the property,
plant, and equipment. Shareholders equity is smaller, but by not a large margin,
than total liabilities.

(a) The Blue Door Corporation is classifying its expenses by function, which is a method of
classifying expenses by functional areas. For smaller companies such as this one, the
difference between classification of items on the income statement by function or nature is
not significant although if listed by nature, cost of goods sold would typically be shown in two
parts: goods purchased and changes in inventory.

However, a perpetual inventory system enables management to monitor purchases and sales to
make the optimum use of the money available for stocking inventory. Fewer stock-outs are
experienced when using the perpetual system as reduction in inventory levels can be quickly
identified and restocking done before the business runs out of inventory. With the perpetual
system, cost of goods sold can be reported at any time and consequently, timely reporting of
results can be achieved. When customers make inquiries concerning the availability of stock
from a merchant, a quick reply can be obtained and provided when a perpetual inventory system
is used.

Chapter 6
EXERCISE 6-2
(b) Since inventory is usually the largest current asset on a companys statement of financial
position, errors can have a significant impact. In making a decision to grant a short-term
bank loan, the bank will be looking at Novotnas liquidity by calculating the current ratio as
well as the inventory turnover and days sales in inventory. Any error in the inventory
count will affect these ratios. In addition, the errors will also affect Novotnas profitability
by impacting the cost of goods sold on the income statement.
EXERCISE 6-6
(a) (1) FIFO
Note: Unrounded numbers have been used in the average cost calculations, although the
numbers have been rounded to the nearest cent for presentation purposes. Because of this,
some amounts may not appear to multiply exactly because of the rounding in the
presentation.
(b) The average cost method results in a higher cost of goods sold because the cost of
inventory is rising.
(c) The FIFO cost method results in a higher profit because it produces the lower cost of
goods sold when prices are rising.
(d) The FIFO cost method results in a higher ending inventory because the cost of inventory
is rising.
(e) Both cost methods result in the same pre-tax cash flow. The cost methods do not change
the pre-tax cash flows of a company.
EXERCISE 6-8
(b) (1) and (2) Cost of goods sold and profit before income tax: The inventory error for 2014
will cause the cost of goods sold to be overstated by $4,000, which will cause profit and
retained earnings to be understated by the same amount. When the error reverses in
2015, cost of goods sold will be understated and profit will be overstated. Over the two
years the error will reverse and therefore the retained earnings balance will be correct at
the end of 2015.
The $2,000 overstatement of inventory in 2015 will cause the cost of goods sold to be
understated and the profit and retained earnings to be overstated by $2,000.
(3) The inventory error for 2014 will cause the merchandise inventoryan asset account
to be understated by $4,000.
The inventory error for 2015 will cause the merchandise inventory (asset) account to be
overstated by $2,000.
(5) Shareholders equity is also understated by $4,000 in 2014 (see retained earnings
explanation in previous section). Shareholders equity will also be overstated by
$2,000 in 2015 (see retained earnings explanation in previous section).
(c) Errors should be corrected as soon as they are discovered so that users have a more
accurate account of inventory on hand, gross profit and profit.

EXERCISE 7-2
1. (a) It is possible to detect this type of fraud by comparing the amount of inventory
consumed during the evening with the sales that were recorded in cash registers.
(b) This fraud can be prevented by segregating the duties of those individuals
handling the drinks to those individuals having access to the cash register. If
additional staff is not available, the floor supervisor should keep a close eye on the
bartender or inventory could be counted once a day.
2. (a) It is possible to detect this type of fraud as the bottles of liquor sold to
establishments are not the same as those sold at a liquor store. A special label is
attached, which can be detected at the end of the shift. As well, if the additional
empty bottles are on hand at the end of the shift, when the inventory consumed
(including the bartenders bottle) at the end of the bartenders shift is compared to
sales, a discrepancy will be noticed.
(b) This fraud can be prevented by segregating the duties of those individuals
handling the drinks to those individuals having access to the cash register. If
additional staff is not available, the floor supervisor should keep a close eye on the
bartender and do a bottle count at the end of the shift.
3. (a) It is possible to detect this type of fraud if someone notices that the number of
appointments and services given by the spa does not reconcile to the revenue
deposited in the bank account for the day. Most businesses of this nature will have
someone comparing the bank deposit slips with the appointment schedule (often
the schedule will be printed off a day or day prior to the schedule date).
(b) This fraud can be prevented by segregating the duties of those individuals
handling the appointments, to those handing the cash, and again to those
individuals making the bank deposit. If additional staff is not available, the owner of
the spa should at least make the bank deposit and require that the appointments
be written in ink.
4. (a) It is possible to detect this type of fraud but likely only after the first instance of
fraud. The individual in charge of approving the bank reconciliation could insist on
looking at the cheques returned by the bank and detect the unauthorized cheque.
(b) This fraud can be prevented by segregating the duties of those individuals
handling the cheques with the individual preparing the bank reconciliation, and by
being vigilant in scrutinizing the bank reconciliation and its supporting documents.

(a) Control Activities Application to Cash Receipts
Authorization of transactions and Only cashiers are authorized to sell tickets. Only
activities the manager and cashier can handle cash. Only
ushers authorize entrance.
(b) Actions by the usher and cashier to collaborate to misappropriate cash include:
1. Instead of tearing the tickets, the usher could return the tickets to the cashier who
could resell them, and the two could divide the cash.
2. The cashier could issue a lower priced ticket than paid for and the usher would
admit the customer. The difference between the ticket issued and the cash received
could be divided between the usher and cashier.

($31,200 $20,000)
(f) Aging the individual accounts should produce a more accurate estimate of the net
realizable value of the receivables. As the receivables get older, a higher
percentage is applied to them when calculating the amount of uncollectible
accounts. This is more accurate because older receivables have a greater
probability of not being collected.
