PART A: Nittany Lions Corporation adjusts its accounts only at year-end. The following information is available as a source for preparing adjusting entries at December 31, 2015.
On November 1, 2015, the company borrowed $120,000 for one year at 9% interest and recorded a full year of accrued interest expense. Interest is payable at maturity.
On October 1, 2015, Nittany Lions collected seven month’s rent in the amount of $10,500 in advance from the renter. At that date, the company debited Cash and credited Unearned Rent Revenue for $10,500.
The Supplies Inventory account had a $4,500 balance at the beginning of the year (January 1, 2015). During the year, $6,000 of supplies were acquired, with the Supplies Expense account debited at the time of purchase. The supplies count at the end of the year (December 31, 2015) showed $5,000 of supplies is still on hand.
