Explanation / Answer

Solution -12:

As per principal of accounting, the expense recognition principle matches expenses with revenue.

Solution - 13:

Using accrual accounting, expenses are recorded and reported only when they are incurred whether or not cash is paid.

Solution - 14:

Net Sales = $4,500

Collection of $2,000 for services is unearned income and same is related to year 2014.

Salary for 2013 = $1,875

Purchase of airline ticket in 2013 for 2014 trip is a prepaid expense to reconginzed in 2014.

Therefore net income as per accrual accounting = $4,500 - $1,875 = $2,625

Solution - 15:

Amount collected for services from Oct'13 to Jan;'14 = $9,600

Revenue for one month = $9600/4 = $2,400

Revenue for Oct'13 to Dec'13 for 3 months will be reconginzed in 2013 = $2,400 * 3 = $7,200

Solution - 16:

Journal entry to be made at the time of purchase of insurance policy:

Prepaid insurance A/c Dr $30,000

To Cash A/c Cr $30,000

Expense to be recongized in 2013 from march to december = $30000*10/12 = $25,000

If company neglects to make year end adjustment and book insurance expense for $25,000 then it will reduce company expenditure and increase its net income. Therefore as a result, Net income and assets will be overstated by $25,000.

Solution 17:

Opening Supplies = $1,500

Purchase = $2,900

Consumption = $2,800

Closing supplies value = $1,500 + $2,900 - $2,800 = $1,600
