Adding and Posting Journal Entries You need to be in the Journal view before you can add any journal entries. Once you are in the Journal view, you will see the journal entry panel on the lower portion of the window. Before ANY entry can be added to the Journal, a transaction description, account #-description, and debit or credit amount must be specified. Once you have filled in the necessary fields, simply click on [Add Entry] to add the entry to the journal. If the entry being made is a closing entry, you must click on the check mark for [Closing Entry]. If one of the fields is missing a value or contains an illegal character, the [Add Entry] button will remain disabled. If the account selected from the drop-down [Account (# - Account Description)] menu is a control account, the detail journal will automatically open for entering the transaction detail. When entering data in the detail journal, you must first select an item from the drop-down [Transaction Description] or type your own description in the box before selecting the account. When you have completed your entries the detail total for the transaction will be entered into the control account. Once you have entered a batch of entries into the system, you can post them to the general ledger at any time by clicking the [Post Entries] button. In the case of the General Fund, posting transactions also posts entries from the detail journal to the Revenue ledger and Appropriations, Encumbrances, Expenditures ledgers.

You will know you are in edit mode when the entry form turns red and the blanks fill in with the data from the journal.

This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use. Not authorized for sale or distribution in any manner. This document may not be copied, scanned, duplicated, forwarded, distributed, or posted on a website, in whole or part. As in real-world systems, the software does not allow you to edit entries that have already been posted. So, it is recommended that you verify the accuracy of entries before clicking [Post Entries]. However, for your convenience we have added the capability to \"unpost\" individual batches of posted transactions. Note that prior to unposting a batch, all batches must be posted. To unpost simply highlight any entry within the batch you want to unpost and either right click and select [Unpost] or select [Unpost] from the Edit menu. Make all necessary editing changes, and then click [Post Entries] and your corrections will be made to the appropriate accounts. If you need to add a missing entry to a previously posted journal entry, then unpost as described above, highlight the line below which a new entry is to be added, and right click and select \"Insert Entry.\" Note that the \"Insert Entry\" function will work if you are inserting an entry prior to a balance sheet account. However, it will not work when inserting an entry prior to any account that has an associated subsidiary ledger (e.g., estimated revenues, expenditures).

A provision also allows you to clear all of the transactions from the current fund or entity. Under [File]-[Student Assistance] you will find the option [Wipe out data for current fund or governmental activities]. The wipe out function should be used as a last resort since making changes by editing is quite easy. Once you select this option, there is no going back. It will remove ALL of the transactions for the current fund or entity. 9 2016 by McGraw-Hill Education. This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use.

If you want to print a ledger, you should open the [Reports] menu, and select the report to print. Working with the Detail Journal Screen The General Fund of the City of Smithville uses a Detail Journal to avoid recording operating or budget detail in the general journal/ledgers. If you choose a control account that has subsidiary detail associated with it, you will be taken directly to the Detail Journal. If you attempt to edit a journal entry that has associated subsidiary detail, you will automatically be prompted to also open the Detail Journal for editing, if desired. The Detail Journal screen for the General Fund appears as shown on the following page. 10 2016 by McGraw-Hill Education. This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use.

To export an item, select it from the [File], [Export] menu, accept the default file name and folder location, and save it. You can change the file name and/or location if you prefer. 11 2016 by McGraw-Hill Education. This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use.

Completing Chapters 2 through 11 of the City of Smithville Full Version Foreword This full version of a cumulative problem written for the computer presents a series of transactions covering activities for the City of Smithville, assuming the city utilizes the dual-track accounting approach to the GASB reporting model described in Reck and Lowensohn, Accounting for Governmental & Nonprofit Entities, 17th edition. The transactions presented relate to the city's General Fund, capital projects, debt service, enterprise, and fiduciary funds, as well as to an additional accounting entity, governmental activities at the government-wide level. The transactions and instructions in this series are designated Chapter 2, Chapter 3, etc., corresponding to the chapters of Reck and Lowensohn, Accounting for Governmental & Nonprofit Entities, 17th edition. You should begin the project with Chapter 2 of the instructions as you complete Chapter 2 of the textbook. Some problems require you to print trial balances or other documents. Other problems require the preparation of financial statements or other documents. The specified documents can either be turned in chapter by chapter or retained in a cumulative folder until the end of the project, depending on your instructor's preference and instructions. Some instructors may prefer that you electronically submit your project data file and either Excel or .pdf files containing your trial balances, financial statements, and other documents, rather than submitting printed copies. To minimize errors, you should read and follow all instructions carefully. Students find that this computerized cumulative problem significantly enhances their learning if they complete each City of Smithville chapter as the corresponding chapter of the textbook is covered. Conversely, students who procrastinate often find that the project takes more time than they expected and that it is harder to recall how to make the journal entries covered in the earlier chapters. Thus, delaying until your project is nearly due may increase the total time it takes you to do the project and leave you little time for anything else that week. So, our advice is to stay current with the project. 12 2016 by McGraw-Hill Education. This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use.

After opening the file you created for Chapter 2 of this project, record the budget in the general journal, providing entries in the Detail Journal when directed. Begin by selecting [General Fund] in the [Current Accounting Entity] drop-down box and the [Journal] tab. In the [Year] box, be sure to select the year 2017. Enter 3-a in the [Transaction Description] box. Select \"Estimated Revenues\" in the drop down [Account (# - Description)] window. This will take you automatically to the Detail Journal where you will enter the detail for each estimated revenue source. In the Detail Journal, select \"Budget Authorization\" from the drop-down menu for [Transaction Description]. When you have finished entering the estimated revenue detail information, verify that the correct total amount is shown in the Detail Journal, then click on [Return to General Journal] and the total estimated revenues will be entered in the general journal Estimated Revenues control account.

To finish recording the budget debit Budgetary Fund Balance and credit Estimated Other Financing UsesInterfund Transfer Out for $20,000. Note that budgetary entries have no effect on governmental activities at the government-wide level and thus the budget information is only recorded in the General Fund. When you are satisfied you have made the entries correctly, post them to the general ledger by clicking on [Post Entries]. Before posting, or after unposting as described previously, you can edit, delete or insert entries in the journal by placing the cursor in the line you want to adjust and then right-clicking. Note that the \"Insert Entry\" function will work if you are inserting an entry prior to a balance sheet account. However, it will not work when inserting an entry prior to any account that has an associated subsidiary ledger (e.g., estimated revenues, expenditures). If you make too many errors and want to start over, you can select [Student Assistance] from the [File] menu and completely wipe out all data from the current fund or governmental activities entity on which you are working. Generally, such radical action should be unnecessary given the [Unpost] and [Insert] capabilities of the program, as described previously. b. Go to [Reports], print the pre-closing subsidiary ledgers and pre-closing trial balance for year 2017 from the \"Reports\" window for retention in your cumulative file until directed by your instructor to submit them, or submit saved versions of these documents electronically if directed to do so by your instructor. As of this time, only the budget has been recorded. This is your last opportunity to print or export these documents with budget information only. After operating transactions have been journalized and posted in Chapter 4, subsidiary ledgers and trial balances will contain both budgetary and operating accounts and balances. Before closing the City of Smithville, click on [File], and [Save/Save As] to save your work. If you close the file by clicking on the [X] box you will be asked if you want to save your changes before closing. 18 2016 by McGraw-Hill Education.

A physical count of consumable supplies at year-end showed an ending balance of $67,420, an increase of $1,420 during the year. The city uses the purchases method of accounting for its inventory in the General Fund and the consumption method at the government-wide level. Since the city uses a periodic inventory system, both at the fund and governmental levels, it records all purchases of inventory as expenditures in the General Fund and as expenses at the government-wide level. These were included as part of the amounts recorded in paragraph 4-a-6. Adjustments to the expenses accounts should be made to the Public Works function, where most supplies are used. Required: Prepare the adjusting journal entries in the General Fund journal to adjust the Inventory of Supplies and Fund BalanceNonspendableInventory of Supplies accounts to the correct balances and the governmental activities journal to adjust the ExpensesPublic Works and Inventory of Supplies accounts. Post all journal entries to the general and subsidiary ledgers: After reviewing all entries for accuracy, including year and paragraph numbers, post all entries to the general ledger accounts and to all subsidiary ledger accounts, by clicking on [Post Entries]. Also post all entries in the governmental activities journal. 16. Closing Entry. Following the instructions in the next paragraph, prepare and post the necessary entries to close the Estimated Revenues, Appropriations, and Estimated Other Financing Uses accounts to Budgetary Fund Balance, and Revenues, Expenditures, and Other Financing Uses to Fund Balance Unassigned. Because the City of Smithville honors all outstanding encumbrances at year-end, it is not necessary to close Encumbrances to Encumbrances Outstanding at year-end since encumbrances do not affect the General Fund balance sheet or statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances. If, however, you would like to avoid having these accounts appear in the post-closing trial balance, you can opt to close Encumbrances to Encumbrances Outstanding. If the accounts are closed, they would need to be reestablished at the beginning of the next year. 24 2016 by McGraw-Hill Education. This is proprietary material solely for authorized instructor use.

Chapter 5 Recording Capital Asset Transactions Street Improvement Capital Projects Fund and Governmental Activities at the Government-wide Level During late 2016, the voters of the City of Smithville authorized tax-supported bond issues totaling $8,000,000 as partial financing for a series of projects to construct streets, curbs, culverts, and storm sewers in various parts of the city. The estimated total cost of the series of projects, which are expected to extend over the next three years, was $10,200,000. In addition to the bond financing, voters also approved a special cent sales tax to assist in financing the projects. The sales tax begins January 1, 2017 and will continue for five years. The sales tax is projected to generate $500,000 each year. Required a.

Chapter 6 Transactions Affecting General Long-term Liabilities and Debt Service The City of Smithville created a Street Improvement Bond Debt Service Fund to be used to retire the bonds issued for the purposes described in Chapter 5 of this cumulative problem, and to pay the interest on the bonds. The $2,000,000 face value of bonds issued during 2017 are dated January 1, 2017, but were not issued until May 6, 2017. Because bondholders will receive six months of interest on July 1, 2017 in the total amount of $40,000, they were required to pay $28,000 on the date of issue to pay the city for unearned interest from January 1 to May 6. The bonds bear interest of 4 percent per annum. The first interest payment of $40,000 is due July 1, 2017. Subsequent semiannual interest payments will be made January 1 and July 1 of each following year until the maturity of the bonds. Bonds in the amount of $500,000 are to mature five years after the date of the bonds (January 1, 2022), and $100,000 is to mature January 1 of each year thereafter until all the bonds issued in 2017 have been retired. Thus, these bonds are deferred serial bonds as discussed in Chapter 6 of the textbook. Make entries as instructed in the following paragraphs. Bond covenants related to this bond issue require the city to levy property taxes sufficient to make principal and interest payments until the bonds have been retired. The city council has approved a resolution to enable the property tax levy, beginning in fiscal year 2018. As the bond issue did not occur until May 2017, the city will not levy debt service property taxes until next year. a.
