Instructions

Answer the questions relating to each of the five independent situations as requested.

(Notes Receivable with Realistic Interest Rate) On October 1, 2017, Arden Farm Equipment Company sold a pecan-harvesting machine to Valco Brothers Farm, Inc. In lieu of a cash payment Valco Brothers Farm gave Arden a 2-year, $120,000, 8% note (a realistic rate of interest for a note of this type). The note required interest to be paid annually on October 1. Arden’s financial statements are prepared on a calendar-year basis.

Instructions

Assuming Valco Brothers Farm fulfills all the terms of the note, prepare the necessary journal entries for Arden Farm Equipment Company for the entire term of the note.

(Notes Receivable with Unrealistic Interest Rate) On December 31, 2015, Ed Abbey Co. performed environmental consulting services for Hayduke Co. Hayduke was short of cash, and Abbey Co. agreed to accept a $200,000 zero-interest-bearing note due December 31, 2017, as payment in full. Hayduke is somewhat of a credit risk and typically borrows funds at a rate of 10%. Abbey is much more creditworthy and has various lines of credit at 6%.

Instructions

(a) Prepare the journal entry to record the transaction of December 31, 2015, for the Ed Abbey Co.

(b) Assuming Ed Abbey Co.’s fiscal year-end is December 31, prepare the journal entry for December 31, 2016.

(c) Assuming Ed Abbey Co.’s fiscal year-end is December 31, prepare the journal entry for December 31, 2017.

(Bank Reconciliation and Adjusting Entries) The cash account of Aguilar Co. showed a ledger balance of \(3,969.85 on June 30, 2017. The bank statement as of that date showed a balance of \)4,150. Upon comparing the statement with the cash records, the following facts were determined.

1. There were bank service charges for June of \(25.

2. A bank memo stated that Bao Dai’s note for \)1,200 and interest of \(36 had been collected on June 29, and the bank had made a charge of \)5.50 on the collection. (No entry had been made on Aguilar’s books when Bao Dai’s note was sent to the bank for collection.)

3. Receipts for June 30 for \(3,390 were not deposited until July 2.

4. Checks outstanding on June 30 totaled \)2,136.05.

5. The bank had charged the Aguilar Co.’s account for a customer’s uncollectible check amounting to \(253.20 on June 29.

6. A customer’s check for \)90 (as payment on the customer’s Accounts Receivable) had been entered as \(60 in the cash receipts journal by Aguilar on June 15.

7. Check no. 742 in the amount of \)491 had been entered in the cash journal as \(419, and check no. 747 in the amount of \)58.20 had been entered as $582. Both checks had been issued to pay for purchases and were payments on Aguilar’s Accounts Payable.

Instructions

(a) Prepare a bank reconciliation dated June 30, 2017, proceeding to a correct cash balance.

(b) Prepare any entries necessary to make the books correct and complete.

Use the information presented in BE7-5 for Wilton, Inc.

(a) Instead of an Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Balance of \(2,400 credit, the balance was \)1,900 debit. Assume that 10% of accounts receivable will prove to be uncollectible. Prepare the entry to record bad debt expenses.

(b) Instead of estimating uncollectible based on a percentage of receivables, assume Wilton prepares an aging schedule that estimates total uncollectible accounts at \(24,600. (Assume an allowance of \)2,400 credit.) Prepare the entry to record bad debt expenses.

BE7-5 (L03) Wilton, Inc. had net sales in 2017 of \(1,400,000. At December 31, 2017, before adjusting entries, the balances in selected accounts were Accounts Receivable \)250,000 debit, and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $2,400 credit. If Wilton estimates that 8% of its receivables will prove to be uncollectible, prepare the December 31, 2017, journal entry to record bad debt expense.
