can you do this problem for me will tip 70$ in about 24 hrs?

image text in transcribed This case is designed to reinforce certain technical accounting skills that are a prerequisite to a solid understanding of the generally accepted accounting principles that underlie preparation of general purpose financial statements. You are tasked with the preparation of a set of 2015financial statements for BRONX BOMBERS, INC. a company that purchases merchandise inventory for resale. You will be required to prepare journal entries (utilizing a general journal along with a set of special journals), the posting of those entries to both general and subsidiary ledger accounts, and preparation of month-end adjustments, an adjusted trial balance,financial statements, and closing entries in order to ready the general ledger for 2015 activity.BRONX BOMBERS, INC. uses the following chart of accounts: Account Number Account Title 100 Cash 110 Accounts Receivable 115 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (AFDA) 120 Interest Receivable 130 Inventory 135 Supplies 140 Prepaid Rent 145 Prepaid Insurance 150 Available for Sale Investments (non-current) 160 Land 170 Buildings 175 Accumulated Depreciation - Buildings 180 Equipment 185 Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment 190 Patents 210 220 225 230 235 240 245 250 Accounts Payable Salaries Payable Utilities Payable Interest Payable Unearned Rent Income Taxes Payable Dividends Payable Notes Payable (non-current) 300 310 320 325 Common Stock Additional Paid-In Capital Retained Earnings Dividends 1 330 350 Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Treasury Stock 2 400 402 404 410 420 430 Sales Revenue Sales Returns & Allowances Sales Discounts Interest Revenue Rent Revenue Dividend Revenue 500 505 507 508 510 515 520 530 535 540 550 555 560 570 590 Cost of Goods Sold Purchases Purchase Returns & Allowances Purchase Discounts Salaries Expense Bad Debt Expense Rent Expense Depreciation Expense - Buildings Depreciation Expense - Equipment Patent Amortization Expense Utilities Expense Supplies Expense Insurance Expense Interest Expense Income Tax Expense Bronx Bombers, Inc. is a calendar-year firm that has been in business in the USA for the past ten years. Your job is to maintain the accounting records of Bronx Bombers, Inc. for the month of December, prepare the annual financial statements (income statement, balance sheet, and statement of cash flowsusing the direct method) as of December 31, 2015, and then close the nominal accounts to prepare the accounting records for 2015 entries. BRONX BOMBERS, INC.utilizes the following five journals: Sales journal - this journal is exclusively used to record all credit sales Purchases journal - this journal is exclusively used to record all purchases of inventory items on credit Cash Receipts journal - this journal is exclusively used to record all transactions that involve a receipt of cash Cash Disbursements journal - this journal is exclusively used to record all transactions that involve a cash payment General journal - this journal is used to record all transactions that are not recorded in one of the special journals above 3 BRONX BOMBERS, INC. also maintains both a general ledger and two subsidiary ledgers: A/R Subsidiary ledger - this ledger contains the specific balances owed to BRONX BOMBERS, INC. by individual customers A/P Subsidiary ledger - this ledger contains the specific balances owed by BRONX BOMBERS, INC. to individual suppliers of merchandise inventory A/R Subsidiary Ledger Customer Customer # M Krohngold 110-12 J Goar 110-25 C Winters 110-33 J Tishman 110-44 P O'Malley 110-46 C Becker 110-47 A/R Balance - 11/30/15 Date of Sale 7/20/15 9/13/15 10/25/15 11/22/15 11/24/15 11/28/15 Balance Owed $8,000 22,000 16,000 60,000 24,000 30,000 $160,000 All credit sales are made to customers on the following terms: 2/15, n/30. Payments received from customers are first credited towards the oldest balances in determining any applicable discount.

For the existing balances (and any new purchases), terms are: Nole Industries: 2/30, n/60 TH, Inc.: 3/15, n/30 DevilCo: n/30 4 Case Requirements: Please prepare the following for turn-in: 1. Five journals (SJ, PJ, CRJ, CDJ, and the GJ) with December transactions, yearend adjustments, and closing entries recorded appropriately, 2. The two subsidiary ledgers (A/R and A/P) and the General Ledger with December postings and year-end balances, 3. An adjusted trial balance as of December 31, 2015 4. An Income Statement for the year ended December 31, 2015, 5. A Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, and 6. A Statement of Cash Flows (Direct Method) for the year ended December 31, 2015, with required supplementary disclosures. The General and Subsidiary ledger accounts have been updated to reflect correct Nov. 30, 2015 balances (except for Inventory and Retained Earnings, which are not adjusted until year-end). Your job is to journalize the December transactions that follow below, post these entries to the appropriate ledger accounts, prepare adjusting entries (for the month of Decemberall adjustments through Nov. 30 have been made) and post these to the appropriate ledger accounts, prepare an adjusted trial balance as of Dec. 31, 2015, prepare the three required financial statements, and then prepare and post-closing entries to prepare the general ledger for 2015. All students must prepare their own solution to this project. You may work with other students to solve issues and you may discuss your work with each other. However, every student must turn in an individual solution to the practice set. December Transactions for BRONX BOMBERS, INC.- Note that all payments to suppliers and receipts from credit customers are always net of any applicable purchase or sales discounts (assume these discounts are always taken if payments occur within the appropriate discount period). Dec 1 Purchased 15,000 shares of previously issued BRONX BOMBERS, INC. common stock for $150,000 and placed in treasury. Paid weekly cash payroll of $5,000.

Dec 19 Received the December Utilities bill (to be paid in January) in the amount of $8,000. No A/P account needs to be createdcredit Utilities Payable for balance owed. The annual dividend of $1/share is declared. The dividend will be distributed to shareholders on January 19, 2016.BRONX BOMBERS, INC. recorded the declaration by debiting the Dividends account.

Recorded weekly cash sales of $40,000. 9 Closed for the Holidayswill reopen on January 2, 2016. 10 Information for Adjusting Entries as of 12/31/15 Rent Expense is $4,000/month and was prepaid on January 1, 2015 for two years. Insurance for the month of December was $2,500. A policy that expires in 2015 provided coverage. A physical count of inventory finds the 12/31/15 balance to be $275,000 (see * below for help). The AFS Investments account consists of two separate investments (both were purchased in a prior year) as follows (credit AOCI for increase in fair value): 1) Hokie, Inc. common stock - fair market value at 12/31/15 = $160,000. 2) Bonds issued by TerpCo. Fair market value at 12/31/15 = $140,000. Interest earned in December (to be received from TerpCo in June 2016) equals $3,600. An analysis of the A/R subsidiary ledger reveals that an allowance of $20,000 is necessary for anticipated uncollectible account balances. Depreciation on the Buildings is $4,000/month. Depreciation on the remaining Equipment is $1,800/month. The Patent was originally acquired on January 1, 2015 for $180,000 cash and has a ten-year life (from the acquisition date) and no salvage value. Supplies on hand at 12/31/15 were $10,000. Accrued interest on the $300,000 note payable and the new $480,000 note for the month of December totals $8,000 (to be paid in 2016). We are subleasing some extra office space to BC LLC for $8,000 month. BC prepaid twelve months rent on June 1, 2015. The income tax rate for 2015 is 35%. * BRONX BOMBERS, INC. is using a periodic inventory system that produces an amount for COGS indirectly. An adjusting entry is required at year-end to update the inventory account balance to the correct year-end amount (given) and to transfer the balances from other accounts to COGS. As an example assume that the inventory count at year-end (when compared to last year's balance) indicates a decline of $5,000. Also assume that amounts recorded for purchases, 11 purchase returns and allowances, and purchase discounts are as indicated in this example.The required adjusting entry is: COGS 27,500 (plug figure) Purchase Returns and Allowances 2,000 Purchase Discounts 500 Purchases 25,000 Inventory 5,000 12 Additional Information needed for Preparation of the Statement of Cash Flows Balances at 1/1/14: Cash $848,600 A/R 50,000 AFDA (10,000) Inventory 300,000 Prepaid Rent -0Prepaid Insurance -0Interest Receivable -0Supplies 10,000 Dividends Payable$80,000 A/P 60,000 Salaries Payable -0Utilities Payable 7,000 Interest Payable 25,000 Unearned Rent -0Income Taxes Payable99,000 The only change among the long-term assets (other than those described in the December activity) was the acquisition of a patent on 1/1/15 for $180,000 cash. The AFS investments were both purchased in 2011. There were no changes in any stockholders' equity accounts during the months of January - November. The adjustment required to compute \"Cash received from Customers\" when there is a separate Allowance account needs special attention. Assume that A/R increased by $40,000 (from $300,000 to $340,000) and that AFDA also increased by $5,000 (from $10,000 to $15,000) over the year. In addition, assume that Bad Debt Expense recognized on the income statement equals $20,000 and Sales Revenue for the year was $500,000. Cash Received from Customers (Direct Method) Cash A/R Bad Debt Expense AFDA Sales Revenue (net) 445,000 40,000 20,000 (plug figure) 5,000 500,000 For the indirect method, we can simply make an adjustment for the net change in A/R and ignore bad debt expenseusing the numbers above, the required adjustment would be: A/R (net) - 1/1$290,000 ($300,000 A/R less $10,000 AFDA balance) A/R (net) - 12/31$325,000 ($340,000 A/R less $15,000 AFDA balance) Net increase = $35,000. This amount should be deducted from net income in converting to cash flow from operating activities. It is also unnecessary to make a separate adjustment for bad debt expense when following this approach. 13 UsingSpecial Journals I have provided an example entry into each of the five journals based on the following activity: 1. A credit sale in the amount of $2,000 is made to Customer X (invoice #123) on 1/1/14. Terms are: 2/15, n/30. This will be recorded in the sales journal. The sales journal is used to record all credit sales (but no other transactions). 2. A credit purchase of merchandise inventory in the amount of $3,000 is made from Supplier Y (invoice #Y44) on 1/5/14. Terms are 3/10, n/30. This will be recorded in the purchasesjournal. All credit purchases of inventory are recorded in the purchases journal. 3. Customer X returns $500 of merchandise (from 1/1 sale above) on 1/10/14. This will be recorded in the general journal. The general journal is reserved for transactions that do not involve cash (those will be recorded in either the cash receipts or cash disbursements journal) and are not credit sales or purchases. 4. Customer X sends a check on 1/12/14 for the balance due. This will be recorded in the cash receipts journal. Since the payment is made within the applicable discount period the customer has reduced the check amount by the 2% discount offered for prompt payment. 5. We send Supplier Y a check on 1/13/14 for the balance due. This will be recorded in the cash disbursements journal. Since the payment is made within the applicable discount period we have reduced the check amount by the 3% discount offered for prompt payment. Entries Sales Journal (SJ) DateA/R Subsidiary Acct # Customer Name 1/1 110-15 Customer X Invoice # 123 Amount 2,000 This sale should be immediately posted to the subsidiary A/R ledger account for Customer X (\"on the fly\" so to speak). That way, a current balance for each customer is always at hand. Do not post to general ledger control account A/R until all transactions are journalized. Then, sum the amount column and post a single amount (the total credit sales for the period) to two GL accountsdebit A/R and credit Sales Revenue. Purchases Journal (PJ) DateA/P Subsidiary Acct # Supplier Name 1/5 210-27 Supplier Y Invoice # Y44 Amount 3,000 This purchase of merchandise inventory should be immediately posted to the subsidiary A/P ledger account for Supplier Y. Wait and post to the GL control 14 account A/P until after all transactions are journalized. Then, sum the amount column and post a single amount to two GL accountsdebit Purchases and credit A/P. 15 General Journal (GJ) Date 1/10 Account Name/GL Account # Sales Returns and Allowances/402 A/R - Customer X/110 Debit Credit 500 500 Immediately post the credit to the subsidiary A/R ledger account for Customer X to maintain a current balance. Wait and post both the debit and credit to the two GL accounts (Sales Returns and Allowances and A/R) after all transactions have been journalized. Cash Receipts Journal (CRJ) Date Explanation Cash A/R Sales OtherOther Acct Name/GL Acct # 1/12Pmt received from X1,470(1,500) 30 Sales Discounts/404 Post the $1,500 credit to the subsidiary A/R ledger account for Customer X immediately to maintain a current balance (now zero after the return and the payment). The $1,470 is calculated as: $1,500 x 2% discount = $30. $1,500 owed less $30 discount = $1,470 paid. Once all transactions have been journalized, post to GL accounts as follows: Sum the Cash, A/R and Sales columns and post these totals to Cash (debit), A/R (credit), and Sales Revenue (credit). Do not sum the \"Other\" columnthese amounts must be individually posted to the GL account listed in the \"Other Acct Name\" column. In this example the $30 should be posted to the Sales Discounts account as a debit. It may help to jot down the entry on scratch paper in general journal style (but remember it does not appear in the general journalonly in the cash receipts journal): Cash Sales Discounts A/R 1,470 30 1,500 Cash Disbursements Journal (CDJ) Date 1/13 Explanation Cash A/PPurchasesOtherOther Acct Name/GL Acct # Pmt made to Y (2,910)3,000 (90) Purchase Discounts/508 Post the $3,000 debit to the subsidiary A/P ledger account for Supplier Y immediately to maintain a current balance (now zero after the payment). The $2,910 is calculated as: $3,000 x 3% discount = $90. $3,000 owed less $90 discount = $2,910 paid. Once all transactions have been journalized, post to GL accounts as follows: Sum the Cash, A/P and Purchases columns and post these totals to Cash (credit), A/P (debit), and Purchases (debit). 16 Do not sum the \"Other\" columnthese amounts must be individually posted to the GL account listed in the \"Other Acct Name\" column. In this example the $90 should be posted to the Purchase Discounts account as a credit. As above, the \"journal style\" entry may help with debits/credits: A/P 3,000 Cash Purchase Discounts 2,910 90 17 Bronx Bombers, Inc. -Sales Journal Date A/R Acct # Customer Name Invoice # Amount Bronx Bombers, Inc. -Purchases Journal Date A/P Acct # Supplier Name Invoice # 18 Amount Bronx Bombers, Inc. - Cash Receipts Journal Date Explanation Cash DR A/R (CR) Sales (CR) 19 Other DR/(CR) Other Acct.
