SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Much of the information needed to prepare adjusting entries is included in the transaction information (for example when trading old equipment for new, the life and salvage value of the new equipment is provided in the transaction information). However, additional information is necessary for some adjusting entries. This is provided below: 1. The company uses the straight line method to depreciate (and/or amortize) all long term assets. The new equipment (received January 1) has an expected life of 6 years and no salvage value, while t -in on January 1st) has a remaining life of 10 years and $0 salvage value. The expected life of the building purchased on July 1, is 20 years, and expected salvage value is $40,000.

2. After the successful defense, the patent has a remaining life of 10 years.

3. The company uses the percentage of receivables method when estimating bad debt expense. Estimated A/R expected to be uncollectible = 2% of ending accounts receivable.

4. The company took a physical inventory of office supplies at the end of the year, and determined $8,000 remained. 5. The XYZ stock, purchased on October 1st was trading at $23 per share on December 31st.

6. Assume, for simplicity, there are no differences between financial and taxable income. Assume a 35% income tax rate and taxes will be paid sometime in 2014 (after computing income taxes and

revenue and expense accounts).

1 SEMESTER PROJECT The semester project requires students to record and post transactions & adjusting entries, complete the accounting cycle, and prepare financial statements for (a hypothetical corporation) the Vairam Company, for one calendar year. GAAP financial statement footnotes. Instead, the footnote section of this project will be a place to document lengthy calculations used for journal entries (for example amortization and depreciation schedules) and/or other information (such as computations for the earnings per share presented on the Income Statement). The project may be completed individually or with up to three partners (e.g. total number of group members is four). If working with a partner, the work can be divided in any manner, however, both students receive the same grade on the project (so if student A does a fabulous job on the journal entries and student B does a sloppy job on the financial statements, both students receive the same grade for the overall project). Deliverables for this project are to be professionally presented in ONE COHESIVE document. This can sections (or sheets) the material is to be professionally, presented. For example, Financial Statements should have subheadings, accounts named, no debit and credit columns (although subtotals in inner columns are encouraged). For example: Property, Plant and Equipment Land Building $ 500,000 Acc Dep (120,000) $857,000 380,000 $1,237,000 Information provided to you: 1. A beginning balance sheet (dated December 31, 2015). 2. A set of 25 transactions that occurred in 2016, & need to be recorded. The first 17 transactions have dates associated with them. For some of these transactions, the dates will be useful in also assisting you in preparing necessary end-of-year adjusting entries (NOTE: not all transactions require adjusting entries you need to rely on knowledge from prior & current accounting courses to determine the accounts that require adjusting entries). in the date column). Rather than have you prepare duplicate entries for transactions that occur more than once during a typical year (such as sales, presented. This will provide you with sufficient (representative) business while eliminating redundancies in recording. The transactions provided cover material from ACCTG 230, 330 and 331. For ACCTG 331, the project only covers material through Chapter 17 to insure timely ability to complete the project. 3. Supplemental information. While some adjusting entries can be determined from the information provided in the transaction, others require additional information (for example, life and salvage for the equipment on the beginning balance sheet, or the method used to compute bad debt expense). This section provides this information. 2 Deliverables to be submitted in one cohesive document (only one project needs to be submitted per team - j ust be sur e ever yone' s name is on the pr oject): 1. Cover page with names of student(s) on project. 2. A numbered chart of accounts, in appropriate account order Every account has its own unique number & the numbers are assigned to accounts in the following order - assets (current before long term), liabilities (current before long-term) equity, revenue, expenses. accounts and their account numbers, in numerical order. There can be gaps between numbers (for example, all assets might be numbered in the 100s, all liabilities in the 200s, etc.). I also recommend leaving gaps within categories when setting up the chart of accounts for the beginning balance sheet as you add new accounts through journal entries, they will need to go in their appropriate place in the ordering. 3. A general journal (suggested format below): TRANSACTIONS Date Acct # Account Title Debit Credit Be sure to indicate where transactions end and adjusting entries begin, and where adjusting entries end and closing entries begin. 4. A general ledger computed. T-Accounts are an acceptable, although not required, ledger format. post the beginning balances from the Balance Sheet to the relevant ledger accounts and be sure unadjusted, adjusted and post-closing balances can be easily identified. 5. Trial balances (in good form) These can be presented on a spread sheet (if you choose) as they are internal, rather than published, documents. The spreadsheet still needs to be incorporated into the project, not submitted as a separate file. Good form refers to listing the accounts in Chart of Accounts order and having debit and credit columns (that balance). You will need the following trial balances: * Unadjusted trial balance * Adjusted trial balance * Post-closing trial balance. 6. End of year financial statements (in good form): Good form for financial statements includes good accounting form such as labeling and placing accounts in appropriate sections (e.g. current assets, current liabilities) and including all required Remember, financial statements DO NOT have debit & credit columns internal columns on financial statement are for intermediate calculations (such as subtracting Accumulated Depreciation from Equipment). On the other hand, trial balances DO have debit and credit columns. Financial Statements to include: 3 Income Statement (multi-step) Balance Sheet (classified), Cash Flow Statement (I recommend using your cash T-Account to prepare a direct method cash flow statement similar to that presented in ACCTG 330. Attempting to follow the format in Chapter 23 is not recommended, as you will not have completed the chapter prior to handing in the project. I will discuss the Cash Flow Statement further on the discussion board). (NOT a statement of retained earnings). NOTE: amounts for accounts & their related contra-accounts, these financial statements represent both demonstrate your knowledge of accounting, which requires presentation that enables me to see where your numbers come from. Therefore, present all accounts individually statement - list ALL expenses individually; similarly, do less Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, etc.).
