Company L started the period with 50 units in beginning inventory that cost $1.00 each. During the period, the company purchased inventory items as follows. 240 units were sold after purchase 3 for $5.40 each.
Purchase No. of Items Cost
1 120 @ $1.60
2 160 @ $1.75
3 60 @ $1.85
If L Company uses the LIFO method of inventory cost flow, what is the ending inventory value?
Ending inventory = $210.00
Using LIFO, all of purchases 2 and 3 would be sold. Ending inventory would consist of 100 units @ 1.60 from purchase 1 + 50 @ $1.00 from beginning inventory (160 + 50 = 210).
Company Q was started on January 1, Year 1 when it issued common stock for $50,000 cash. Also, on January 1, Year 1, the company purchased office equipment that cost $19,000 cash. The equipment was delivered under terms FOB shipping point, and transportation cost was $1,000. The equipment had a five-year useful life and a $6,000 expected salvage value. Using double-declining-balance depreciation, what are the amounts of depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation, respectively, that would appear on the December 31, Year 3 financial statements?
Year 3 depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation = $1,200; $14,000
SL rate for 5 years = 1/5 = .20 DDB rate = .40
20,000 cost * .40 = 8,000 yr 1 depreciation
12,000 nbv * .40 = 4,800 yr 2 depreciation
7,200 nbv * .40 = 2,880 Yr 3 depreciation limited to $1,200
Accum depreciaton = 14,000
Total depreciation expense limited to cost - salvage value (19,000 + 1,000 - 6,000 = 14,000)
How would the year-end estimation of warranties expense be recorded in the horizontal financial statement worksheets?
Assets = Liabilities + Equity Revenue - Expense = Net Income Cash Flow

X Co. paid dividends of $2,000; $2,100; and $10,000 during Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3, respectively. The company had 5,000 shares of 5%, $10 par value preferred stock outstanding that paid a cumulative dividend. What is the amount of dividends received by the common shareholders during Year 3?
Common shareholders' year 3 dividend = $6,600
Preferred dividends each year = $2,500
Arrears: yr 1 $500 ; yr 2 $400 Year 3 $10,000 - 500 - 400 - 2,500 = $6,600

Insurance costs to protect the asset from fire and theft amounted to $10,000 for the first year of operations.
Based on this information, what was the amount of cost recorded in the asset account?
Total cost of machine = $105,000
Purchase price - discount + transportation-in + installation & testing = total asset cost
100,000 - 2,000 + 2,000 + 5,000 = 105,000
Insurance coverage for the first year of operations is not recorded as part of the cost of the machine.
On June 1, R Company purchased a new stamping machine with a list price of $100,000. The company paid cash for the machine; therefore, it was allowed a 5% discount.

A company provided the following information from its financial records:
Net income $300,000 ; Common shares outstanding 1/1 100,000 ; Common stock dividends $20,000 ; Common shares outstanding 12/31 200,000 ; Preferred stock dividends $50,000 ; Preferred shares outstanding 1/1 10,000 ; Sales $1,000,000 Preferred shares outstanding 12/31 6,000
What is the amount of the company's earnings per share? (round to the nearest penny)
Earnings per share = (Net income − Preferred stock dividends) / Average shares outstanding
EPS = ($300,000 - $50,000) / ((100,000 + 200,000)/2) = $250,000 / 150,000 = $1.67

N Corporation acquired real estate that contained land, building and equipment. The property cost N Corporation $3,000,000. N paid $950,000 and issued a note payable for the remainder of the cost. An appraisal of the property reported the following values: Land, $300,000; Building, $1,800,000; and Equipment, $900,000.
Assume that N Corporation uses the units-of-production method when depreciating its equipment. It is estimated that the purchased equipment will produce 850,000 units over its 5-year useful life and has salvage value of $50,000. N Corporation produced 169,000 units with the equipment by the end of the first year of purchase.
What amount will be recorded for depreciation expense for the equipment in the first year?
1st year depreciation expense = $169,000
(Purchase price - salvage value) / Estimated total units of production = depreciation expense per unit
(900,000 - 50,000) / 850,000 = $1 per unit 169,000 units produced in year 1 = $169,000
S Co. had sales of $100,000 in Year 1. The company expects to incur warranty expenses amounting to 2% of sales. There were $400 of warranty obligations paid in cash during Year 1. Based on this information, what effects of the warranties will be shown in S Co,'s financial statements?
Cash would decrease by $400 as a result of paying warranty claims in Year 1. Cash outflow from OA.
Year 1 warranty expense = $2,000. NI would be decreased; RE would decrease upon closing the books.
The warranties payable account would increase by $1,600 in Year 1. (2,000 - 400)
V Company was authorized to issue 50,000 shares of common stock. The company had issued 40,000 shares of stock when it purchased 10,000 shares of treasury stock. What was the resulting number of common shares outstanding?

Assets Year 2 Year 1
Cash $5,000 $3,000
A/R $10,000 $20,000
Inventory $50,000 $55,000
Net credit sales for Year 2 totaled $60,000. What is the company's year 2 accounts receivable turnover?
A/R turnover = 4 times
A/R turnover = Net credit sales / Average receivables
60,000 / ((10,000 + 20,000)/2) = 60,000 / 15,000 = 4 times

OO Co was started on January 1, Year 1 when it issued common stock for $100,000 cash. Also, on January 1, Year 1 the company purchased office equipment that cost $20,000 cash. The equipment was delivered under terms FOB shipping point, and transportation cost was $2,000. The equipment had a five-year useful life and a $7,000 expected salvage value. Assume that OO Co earned $30,000 cash revenue and incurred $20,000 in cash expenses in Year 3. Using straight-line depreciation and assuming that the office equipment was sold on December 31, Year 3 for $8,500, what amount of net income or (loss) would be reported on the December 31, Year 3 income statement?
Year 3 NI = $5,500
Income from operations = 30,000 - 20,000 = 10,000
Loss on sale of equipment = Net book value - selling price
Cost of equipment = $20,000 + 2,000 = 22,000
SL depreciation expense each year = (22,000 - 7,000) / 5 = $3,000 expense per year
NBV at end of year 3 = 22,000 - (3,000 * 3) = $13,000 Loss = 13,000 - 8,500 = 4,500
Year 3 NI = 10,000 - 4,500 = $5,500

25,000 total loan payment - 8,000 year 1 interest computation

Asset turnover = 1.1 times
Net credit sales ÷ Average assets
(600,000 - 20,000 - 30,000) / 500,000 = 550,000/500,000 = 1.1 times

Building cost = $1,200,000
(Appraised value of building / total appraised value of basket purchase)*$3,000,000
(2,000,000 / 5,000,000) * 3,000,000 = .40 * 3,000,000 = 1,200,000

Cash $11,000 ; Common Stock $10,000 ; PIC in Excess of Par-CS $1,000

Using the following balance sheet information, what is the average number of days to sell inventory?
Assets Year 2 Year 1
Cash $ 5,000 $ 8,000
A/R $20,000 $30,000
Inventory $30,000 $40,000
COGS $350,000
(365 days/year)
Average days to sell inventory = 36.5
Avg days to sell inventory = 365 / Inventory turns ; Inventory turns = COGS / Average Ending Inventory
Inv turns = 350,000 / ((30,000 + 40,000)/2) = 350,000/35,000 = 10 ; 365/10 = 36.5 avg days to sell inv.
