Because Mei-ling has had such a successful first few months, she is considering other opportunities to develop her business. One opportunity is the sale of fine European mixers. The owner of Kzinski Supply Co. has approached Mei-ling to become the exclusive distributor of these fine mixers in her state. The current cost of a mixer is approximately NT$575, and Mei-ling would sell each one for NT$1,150. Mei-ling comes to you for advice on how to account for these mixers.
In the end, Mei-ling decides to use the perpetual inventory system. The following transactions happen during the month of January.
Jan. 4 Bought five deluxe mixers on account from Kzinski Supply Co. for NT$2,875, FOB shipping point, terms n/30.
6 Paid NT$100 freight on the January 4 purchase.
7 Returned one of the mixers to Kzinski because it was damaged during shipping. Kzinski issues Matcha Creations credit for the cost of mixer plus NT$20 for the cost of freight that was paid on January 6 for one mixer.
8 Collected NT$375 of the accounts receivable from December 2017.
12 Three deluxe mixers are sold on account for NT$3,450, FOB destination, terms n/30. (Cost of goods sold is NT$595 per mixer.)
14 Paid the NT$75 of delivery charges for the three mixers that were sold on January 12.
14 Bought four deluxe mixers on account from Kzinski Supply Co. for NT$2,300, FOB shipping point, terms n/30.
Jan. 17 Mei-ling is concerned that there is not enough cash available to pay for all of the mixers purchased. She invests an additional NT$1,000 cash in Matcha Creations in exchange for ordinary shares.
18 Paid NT$80 freight on the January 14 purchase.
20 Sold two deluxe mixers for NT$2,300 cash. (Cost of goods sold is NT$595 per mixer.)
28 Mei-ling issued a check to her assistant for all the help the assistant has given her during the month. Her assistant worked 20 hours in January and is also paid the NT$56 owed at December 31, 2017. (Mei-lings assistant earns NT$8 an hour.)
28 Collected the amounts due from customers for the January 12 transaction.
30 Paid a NT$145 utility bill (NT$75 for the December 2017 accounts payable and NT$70 for the month of January).
31 Paid Kzinski all amounts due.
31 Cash dividends of NT$750 are paid.
As of January 31, the following adjusting entry data is available.
1. A count of baking supplies reveals that none were used in January.
2. Another months worth of depreciation needs to be recorded on the NT$1,200 of baking equipment bought in November. (Recall that the baking equipment has a useful life of 5 years or 60 months and no salvage value.)
3. An additional months worth of interest on her grandmothers NT$2,000 loan needs to be accrued. (The interest rate is 6%.)
4. During the month, NT$110 of insurance has expired.
5. An analysis of the unearned service revenue account reveals that Mei-ling has not had time to teach any of these lessons this month because she has been so busy selling mixers. As a result, there is no change to the unearned service revenue account. Mei-ling hopes to complete the remaining lessons in February.
6. An inventory count of mixers at the end of January reveals that Mei-ling has three mixers remaining.
