It is March 1, 2015, the first business day of the month, and you have just been hired as the accountant for Holden Corp., which operates with monthly accounting periods. For simplicity, ignore all sales tax considerations and assume that Holden Corp. sells one product. All of the company's accounting work has been completed through the end of February, 2015. Holden Corp.'s year end is March 31. The post-closing alphabetized trial balance at February 28, 2015 follows. Holden Corp. Post-Closing Trial Balance February 28, 2015 Accounts receivable 1 Accounts payable 2 Accumulated depreciation, store equipment. Allowance for doubtful accounts Cash Common shares 3 Interest receivable 4 Merchandise inventory 5 Notes receivable 4 6 Prepaid advertising Retained earnings Store equipment 7 Utilities payable Totals Debit Credit 183,400 417,000 49,259 36,680 992, 119 78,000 190 1,520,000 76,000 39,000 2,295,220 79,450 14,000 2,890,159 2,890,159 1 See the Accounts Receivable Subledger below for details regarding customer balances. 2See the Accounts Payable Subledger below for details regarding creditor balances. 3There are an unlimited number of shares authorized with 10,000 shares issued and outstanding as at February 28, 2015. 4This is a 6% note due February 15, 2018 with interest collectible on the 15th of each month. Refer to the collection schedule below for the note details. Values in schedule have been rounded for convenience. 5 See the Merchandise Inventory Subledger below for details of inventory holdings The balance in Prepaid Advertising represents payment for 6 months starting March 1, 2015. 7See the Property, Plant and Equipment Subledger below for detailed information. You have determined that Holden Corp. uses the moving weighted average cost flow assumption under a perpetual system to account for merchandise inventory and that the terms of all credit sales are 2/10, n/30. Merchandise sells for $210 per unit.
