The following information relates to accounts that may yet require adjustment: |
1. | Patents for Sorensonâs manufacturing process were purchased January 2, 2014, at a cost of $68,000. An additional $17,000 was spent in December 2012 to improve machinery covered by the patents and charged to the Patents account. The patents had a remaining legal term of 17 years. |
2. | On January 3, 2011, Sorenson purchased two licensing agreements; at that time they were believed to have unlimited useful lives. The balance in the Licensing Agreement No. 1 account included its purchase price of $48,000 and $2,000 in acquisition expenses. Licensing Agreement No. 2 also was purchased on January 3, 2013, for $50,000, but it has been reduced by a credit of $1,000 for the advance collection of revenue from the agreement. |
3. | In December 2013, an explosion caused a permanent 60 percent reduction in the expected revenue-producing value of Licensing Agreement No. 1 and, in January 2014, a flood caused additional damage, which rendered the agreement worthless. |
4. | A study of Licensing Agreement No. 2 made by Sorenson in January 2014 revealed that its estimated remaining life expectancy was only 10 years as of January 1, 2014. |
5. | The balance in the Goodwill account includes $24,000 paid December 30, 2013, for an advertising program, which it is estimated will assist in increasing Sorensonâs sales over a period of four years following the disbursement. |
6. | The Leasehold Improvement account includes (a) the $15,000 cost of improvements with a total estimated useful life of 12 years, which Sorenson, as tenant, made to leased premises in January 2013; (b) movable assembly-line equipment costing $8,500, which was installed in the leased premises in December 2014; and (c) real estate taxes of $2,500 paid by Sorenson, which, under the terms of the lease, should have been paid by the landlord. Sorenson paid its rent in full during 2014. A 10-year nonrenewable lease was signed January 3, 2013, for the leased building that Sorenson used in manufacturing operations. |
7. | The balance in the Organization Expenses account includes preoperating costs incurred during the organizational period. |

Case 8-31 Master Budget with Supporting Schedules [LO8-2, LO8-4, LO8-8, LO8-9, LO8-10]
You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. |
Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare comprehensive budgets for the upcoming second quarter in order to show management the benefits that can be gained from an integrated budgeting program. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below. |
The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same priceâ$15 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings): |
January (actual) | 21,800 | June (budget) | 51,800 |
February (actual) | 27,800 | July (budget) | 31,800 |
March (actual) | 41,800 | August (budget) | 29,800 |
April (budget) | 66,800 | September (budget) | 26,800 |
May (budget) | 101,800 | ||
The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Motherâs Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month. |
Suppliers are paid $4.9 for a pair of earrings. One-half of a monthâs purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit, with no discount, and payable within 15 days. The company has found, however, that only 20% of a monthâs sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible. |
Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below: |
Variable: | |||
Sales commissions | 4% | of sales | |
Fixed: | |||
Advertising | $ | 290,000 | |
Rent | $ | 27,000 | |
Salaries | $ | 124,000 | |
Utilities | $ | 11,500 | |
Insurance | $ | 3,900 | |
Depreciation | $ | 23,000 | |
Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year. |
The company plans to purchase $20,500 in new equipment during May and $49,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $21,750 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter. |
A listing of the companyâs ledger accounts as of March 31 is given below: |
Assets | ||
Cash | $ | 83,000 |
Accounts receivable ($41,700 February sales; $501,600 March sales) | 543,300 | |
Inventory | 130,928 | |
Prepaid insurance | 25,500 | |
Property and equipment (net) | 1,040,000 | |
Total assets | $ | 1,822,728 |
Liabilities and Stockholdersâ Equity | ||
Accounts payable | $ | 109,000 |
Dividends payable | 21,750 | |
Common stock | 980,000 | |
Retained earnings | 711,978 | |
Total liabilities and stockholdersâ equity | $ | 1,822,728 |
The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $59,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month. |
The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $59,000 in cash. |
