Widget Company has been in operations for over a year. Widget adopted the calendar year for reporting purposes. At December 31, 2020, the company tried to prepare its own financial statements. On December 31, 2020, a new accountant arrived and realized several adjustments needed to be made before completing the statements. She had Widget provide her with the (1) chart of accounts including ending balances and (2) additional information to permit the adjustment of the impacted accounts.image text in transcribed

Information for the necessary adjustments or calculations as of December 31, 2020:

  1. The company last received interest on the interest bearing note receivable on September 30, 2020.

    Interest is due as of December 31, 2020. An adjusting entry is required for interest due since the

    last payment. The annual interest rate is 6%. (Do not use the cash account.)

  2. The company uses the straight line depreciation method assuming a $10,000 residual value for the

    equipment and an estimated useful life of 5 years. The companys building is depreciated over 30

    years with no salvage value. Record the annual depreciation for 2020 only.

  3. The company uses the allowance method Aging of Receivables to estimate its uncollectible

    accounts. The new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) decided to use the percent of receivables method and estimated that 10% of Accounts Receivables at December 31, 2020 will be uncollectible.

Instructions:

  1. Prepare a trial balance from the chart of accounts to be sure that the total debits are equal to the

    total credits.

  2. Prepare the journal entries. Assume that no entries for annual adjustments have been made for the

    current year. Use ONLY the accounts listed on the trial balance for your journal entries.

  3. Post the transactions to individual accounts and prepare an adjusted trial balance for The Widget

    Company as of December 31, 2020.

  4. Prepare a full Multi-step Income Statement, Statement of Retained Earnings, and a Classified

    Balance Sheet from the adjusted trial balance.
