Problem 1-6B (Static) Identify underlying assumptions of GAAP (LO1-7) The four underlying assumptions of generally accepted accounting principles are economic entity, monetary unit, periodicity, and going concem. Consider the following four independent situations. 1. Mound Builders Groceries has over 1,000 grocery stores throughout the Northwest. Approximately 200,000 customers visit its stores each day. Because of the continual nature of grocery sales, the company does not publish an income statement. The company feels that it has an indefinite life, and a periodic report would mislead investors. 2. Trolls Shipping provides delivery of packages between the United States and Japan. During the current year, the company dellvered 3,000 pockages for its U.S. customers totaling $25,000 in revenue. For its Japanese customers, the company delivered 1,000 packages totaling $1,000,000 (yen). The company's income statement indicates that total revenue equals 4,000 packages delivered with no corresponding amount in the income statement. 3. Slugs Typewriter has provided some of the finest typewriters in town for the past 50 years. Because of the advance of electronic word processors and computers, customer demand has dwindied over the years to almost nothing in the current year, and the company can no longer pay its debts. For the most recent year, the company reports its assets in the balance sheet at historical (original) cost. 4. Blue Hose Carpet specializes in the installation of carpet and wood flooring.
