Mr. Moore has a general idea of what he would like you to do and his instructions are at the end of this document. When you are analyzing the transactions, think them through by visualizing the T accounts or by writing them down on scratch paper (chapter 1 spreadsheet). In the case of unfamiliar types of transactions, specific instructions for recording them are included. However, reason them out for yourself as well. Check each transaction as it is recorded. Catching mistakes early can prevent a lot of rework. To save time, dont include explanations in the journal entries. The following transactions were completed during September of this year (2014):
Sept 1 | Moore deposited $83,200 in a bank account for the purpose of buying Lakeland Indoor Sailboats, a business offering the use of small sailboats to the public at a large indoor pool with a fan system that provides wind. (Mr. Moores CPA has written the JE for you.)
|

He paid $64,400 cash down and signed a mortgage note for the remainder. (Mr. Moores CPA has written the JE for you.)
