Information related to adjusting entries:
No entries have been made for the December 31 bank reconciliation. Use the bank reconciliation provided to prepare the necessary entries.
Fat Tire pays employees and all payroll related liabilities semi-monthly. Each payment of payroll related liabilities is for the previous pay period. Thus, Fat Tire needs to accrue salaries and payroll related expenses for the December 16th-31st pay period. The following information was obtained for the last pay period of the year.
Gross Pay = $12,000
Federal Income Tax withholding rate = 20%
FICA rate for employees and employers = 8%
State unemployment taxes for the pay period = $250
Federal unemployment taxes for the pay period = $75
Fat Tire maintains a liability account for federal income tax withheld from employees and a separate liability account for its own corporate income taxes.
Based on a count taken on December 31st, the amount of supplies that remain on hand is $500.
Unbilled sales as of December 31 totaled $5,000. The cost of those bikes sold was $2,000.
The Allowance for Doubtful accounts is adjusted at the end of each year using the percentage of sales method. Fat Tires estimates that 1% of adjusted net sales will go uncollected.
The Prepaid Insurance balance represents an $18,000 one-year policy that began on July 1. The company adjusts any prepaid items on a monthly basis.
Fat Tire decided to sublease some of its rental space. On October 1, the company received $6,000 in advance from a neighboring business for 3 monthâs rent. The lease period began on October 1. Fat Tire adjusts rent related accounts on a monthly basis.
Furniture and Fixtures were acquired on January 2, 2012 at a cost of $50,000. Management selected a 10 year life and a $2,000 residual value. Fat Tire depreciates Furniture and Fixtures on a monthly basis using the straight-line method of depreciation.
The Equipment was purchased on January 2, 2015 at a cost of $10,000. Management selected a productive life of 6,000 hours and a $1,000 residual value. Fat Tire depreciates Equipment on a monthly basis using the units-of-production method. The equipment was used 200 hours in December.
The Note Payable was issued on December 1, 2016. The terms of the note state that the principal and interest is to be paid two years from the issuance date. The interest rate stated on the note is 6 percent.
Accrued advertising expenses incurred but not yet paid totaled $1,000 on December 31.
Fat Tire makes quarterly payments for its income taxes. No entry has been made for the fourth quarter income taxes of 2016 which will be paid in 2017. To make this entry, you will have to determine the Income Before Tax for the year. One-fourth of that amount represents income earned in the fourth quarter. Fat Tireâs corporate tax rate is 40%.
Required:
Prepared the adjusting journal entries required on December 31, 2016.
Prepared a multiple-step income statement for the year ended December 31, 2016. Make sure your operating expenses are listed in descending order. Use the Income statement example that I provided as supplemental notes to chapter 6 as a guide.
Prepare a classified balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. List your current assets in order of liquidity.
Note: If it helps, prepare a supplemental schedule like we completed in problem 4.6A. It may help organize your data prior to preparing the financial statements.
Appropriate Use of Office Hours:
Office hours are held so that students can ask questions about assignments and/or concepts. For assignments that are to be submitted for a grade, it is unreasonable for you to ask âis my assignment correctâ or âcan you find my mistakesâ. That is why the assignments are graded. A reasonable request is to ask âhow toâ questions if you are stuck on a step or âcan you help me understand this data or this requirementâ. We (Iâm speaking for the TAs as well) want to help, but we are not there to complete your assignments for you.
Print Formats: Be sure to use the print preview feature in Excel and adjust your spreadsheets so that they can be easily read. Points will be deducted if I have to work just to read your printouts. Use normal size fonts and make sure that when reading left to right, you do not have sheets starting on one page and finishing on another. In other words, pretend Iâm your client.
