Other information related to adjusting entries:

  1. Information for the last pay period of the year is below. Cash will not change hands for this pay period until January of 2020. The salaries, related payroll tax expenses, and related employee benefit expenses have been incurred but not yet recorded.

Gross Pay = $11,500 Federal Income Tax withholding rate = 20% FICA rate for employees and employers = 8% for each

Medical Insurance Premiums withheld from employees = $500

Employers share of Medical Insurance Premiums = $400

401K withheld from employees = $575

Employers match on 401K = $345 State unemployment taxes for the pay period = $300 Federal unemployment taxes for the pay period = $100

Fat Tire maintains a separate account for each payroll related liability on its Balance Sheet. Do not worry about any wage base limits.

  1. The Prepaid Insurance balance represents a $36,000 one-year policy that began on July 1. The company adjusts any prepaid items on a monthly basis.

  2. Fat Tire decided to sublease some of its rental space. On October 1, the company received $4,500 in advance from a neighboring business for 3 months rent. The lease period began on October 1. Fat Tire adjusts rent related accounts on a monthly basis.

  3. The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is adjusted at the end of each year using the percentage of sales method. Fat Tire estimates that 1% of adjusted net sales will go uncollected.

  4. One-half of the supplies purchased in December had been used by year end. The use of all other supplies purchased during the year has already been recorded.

  5. The car that was traded on December 31 was acquired on January 1, 2016 for $30,000. Management selected a 5 year life with a $6,000 residual value. Fat Tire depreciates cars on a monthly basis using the straight-line method of depreciation.

  6. The Equipment was purchased on January 2, 2018 at a cost of $10,000. Management selected a four year life with a $1,000 residual value. Fat Tire depreciates Equipment on a monthly basis using the double-declining balance method of depreciation. To obtain the monthly amount, management has decided to calculate the depreciation for the year and then record 1/12 of that amount each month.
