Recap - Common Midterm Mistakes & Corrections
➢ Use cash to figure out how to journalize almost any transaction: Debit Cash → Cash increases
(money comes in), Credit Cash → Cash decreases (money goes out). Applies similarly to asset accounts.
➢ Identify the receivables: Accounts receivable arise when a business sells goods or services on credit,
allowing customers to pay later. Notes receivable refer to written promissory notes that include a promise
to pay a specific amount at a future date.
➢ Prepaid Expense: record as assets until they are utilized. E.g., prepaid insurance, prepaid rent.
➢ Unearned Revenue: record as liability until we deliver the goods / perform the services.
➢ Accrued Revenue / Accrued Expense are not account names! They are the concepts.
➢ To record the consumption of Supplies: Dr. Supplies Expense, Cr. Supplies

Ch.7 PPE and Intangibles
➢ Property, plant and equipment (PPE), have three defining characteristics. They are:
1. Tangible
2. Used in business operations, and
3. Have useful lives greater than one year.
➢ How to determine the Cost of PPE? For Land, Land improvement, Buildings, Machinery and Equipment
➢ Measure and record depreciation

3. Units of Production Method 👉👉👉👉👉👉👉
Ch.7 PPE and Intangibles
➢ Account for PPE disposals
a) Disposing of a Fully Depreciated Asset for No Proceeds: Dr. A/D, Cr. Asset
b) Disposing of a Not Fully Depreciated Asset for No Proceeds: Dr. A/D, Dr. Loss on disposal, Cr. Asset
c) Selling a PPE: remove the Assets and its A/D, record your Cash received and Gain/Loss on Sale (if any)
➢ Recognition & Subsequent measurement of Intangible Assets
1. Record goodwill when it is purchased, at (Cost of purchasing – Market value of the acquired company’s net assets)
2. Perform impairment test. If the goodwill’s value has increased, there is nothing to record. But if goodwill’s value has
decreased, record an impairment of goodwill loss and write down the book value of the goodwill.
Question #7
Assume B–1 Accounting Consultants purchased a building for €438,000 and depreciated
it on a straight-line basis over 40 years. The estimated residual value was €72,000. After
using the building for 20 years, B–1 realized that the building will remain useful for only
15 more years. Starting with the 21st year, B–1 began depreciating the building over the
newly revised total life of 35 years and decreased the estimated residual value to €13,800.
Record depreciation expense on the building for years 20 and 21.
Question #7 (answers)
Journal
DATE ACCOUNT TITLES AND EXPLANATION DEBIT CREDIT
Year 20 Depreciation Expense
[(438,000 − 72,000) ÷ 40]…………… 9,150
Accumulated Depreciation — Building 9,150
Year 21 Depreciation Expense…………………… 16,080*
Accumulated Depreciation — Building 16,080
Depreciable cost: €438,000 − €72,000 = 366,000
Depreciation through year 20:
€366,000 ÷ 40 = 9,150
€9,150 × 20 = 183,000
Asset’s remaining depreciable book value:
€438,000 − 183,000 − 13,800 = 241,200
New estimated useful life remaining: 15 years
New annual depreciation: €241,200 ÷ 15 = €16,080
Ch.9 Liabilities
➢ Liabilities
• Recognized on the Balance Sheet when it is probable that such an outflow will occur (1) and the amount of which can be
measured reliably (2).
• Current Liabilities: due within 12 months (short-term); Non-current Liabilities: due after 12 months (long-term).
• The current portion of long-term debt that is due within 12 months after the reporting date must be classified as a current
liability, even if the original loan term was long-term!
• Provisions are likely to affect the company’s finances but there is uncertainty about their value or timing. For example, the
exact amount of warranty expense cannot be known with certainty, so the business must estimate warranty expense related
liability. Dr. Warranty Expense, Cr. Warranty Payable.
• Contingent Liabilities disclosed in the notes but NOT recognized when the outflow of resources is possible but not
probable; not disclosed when the probability of a contingent loss to occur is remote.
Ch.9 Liabilities
➢ Evaluate a company’s debt-paying abilities
• Debt ratio
(1) Measure of an entity’s indebtedness; (2) A debt ratio below 50% is considered low
• Times-Interest-Earned Ratio
Measures the number of times that operating income can cover interest expense.

❑ Cash Realization Ratio
Evaluation: Measures amount of net profit reflected in actual cash generated from operations (CFO). The company’s
cash conversion ability! A number greater than 1 is considered a good ability to realize cash from profits.

Question #12 (answers)
Req 2
(a) The company’s financial position improved during 20X6 as shown by increases in the current ratio, the
inventory turnover and in the times-interest-earned ratio.
(b) The ordinary share’s attractiveness increased during 20X6, as shown by the increase in the market price
of the ordinary share. This increase is consistent with the increase in return on assets, return on ordinary
shareholders’ equity, and earnings per share of ordinary share. The price/earnings ratio showed a slight
decline.
Req 3
This problem gives you practice in computing and evaluating several of the ratios used in investment
analysis. By analyzing the two-year trends in the ratios, you can see whether the company’s abilities to pay
its debts, sell its inventory, and generate profits have improved or deteriorated during this period.
Improving ratio values generally indicate an attractive investment, and deteriorating ratio values usually
signal an unattractive investment.
