Jan 12 to 24 : 700.23
Jan 28 to 30: 650.23 + 400.24 + 150.24,5
Closing inventiries: 1500 + 400 + 300 – 150 -700 -1200= 150
cost of closing inventories: 150.24,5=3675
cost of goods sold: 150.23+ 700.23 + 650.23 + 400.24+ 150.24,5 = 41560

What is the cost of the 35 units on hand at the end of the period as determined
by:
a/ The LIFO costing method 5.P23 + 30.P20= P715
b/ The FIFO costing method 35.P23= P805 c/ The

Q10
On 10/1/N, A Company purchased merchandise K on credit: Quantity 1.000 kg,
total amount $2.000. Transportation fee of $60 was paid by cash. On 15/2/N, A
issued 400 kg of material K for production.
Determine:
a/ Cost of K purchased? b/ Cost of K issued?
c/ Cost of K at the end of accounting period?
(A Company applied historical cost and accrual principle; cost of material
issused was calculated by moving average method, Openning balance of K:
Quantity: 500kg, $1.000)

A, Cost of K purchased = total amount + tranportation fee= 2000 + 60=2060


B, Cost of K issued: (average method)
= (Cost of purchased + Beginning balance)/(Total quantity).Issused
quantity
= (1000 + 2060)/(500+1000) .400=816
C, Cost of K at the end of accounting period
= Beginning balance + Cost of purchased – cost of issued

Q19
On September 1, N, Company M purchased a building at $1,200,000. Buildings
are depreciated using the straight-line depreciation method. Useful life of the
building is 40 years. Salvage value of the building at the end of useful life is
estimated as $120,000.
Determine:
1. Depreciation expense for N?
2. Carrying value of the building at December 31, N?
3. Accumulated depreciation account is_________account.
1, Depreciation expense for N = (1,200,000 – 120,000)/40= 27,000 per year
2, Carrying value of the building at December 31, N
Deprecation per month = 27,000/12 = 2250
Carrying value of the building at December 31, N:
= 1,200,000 – (2250 .4)= 1,191,000
3, Accumulated depreciation account is a contra asset account.

Q20
Company X purchased a car by 3 yearly instalments on 17/9/N. The interest rate
per year was 8.5%. Market value of the car at purchased date of 1.2 billions.
Registration tax rate was 10%. Delivery cost and assemble cost were 35 million.
The car was in use from Oct/N. Its estimated useful life was 5 years and there
was no residual value.
Required:
1, Determine the total cost of the car:
- at the time of initial recognition.
lOMoARcPSD|20574723

- at the time of last payment.


2, Determine the accumulated depreciation and carrying amount of the car at the
end of year N. (The Car is depreciated on monthly basis and straight line method
is used for depreciation)
1,The total cost of the car at the time of initial recognition: =
1,200,000,000 + 1,200,000,000.10% + 35,000,000= 1,355,000,000
Interest have to paid each year for the car:
= 1,200,000,000.8,5%= 102,000,000
The total cost of the car at the time of last payment:
= 1,355,000,000 + 102,000,000.3=1,611,000,000
2, Depreciation of the car each month: 1,200,000,000/(5.12)=20,000,000
The accumulated depreciation of the car at the end of year N:
=20,000,000.3=60,000,000
The carrying amount of the car at the end of year N:
=1,200,000,000 – 60,000,000 = 1,140,000,000

A company determines gain or loss on the sale by comparing the asset's carrying amount to the sale proceeds. If an asset with a carrying amount of $533,250 is sold for $700,000, the gain is $700,000 - $533,250 = $166,750. The accounting entries are: Dr Cash $700,000, Dr Accumulated Depreciation, Cr Asset, Cr Gain on Disposal $166,750 .

The weighted-average cost per unit is determined by dividing the total cost of inventory available for sale by the total units available. It is important because it ensures that all units are valued at the same cost regardless of purchase dates, reducing the impact of price fluctuations on financial reporting. For instance, if A Company applies a weighted-average method, the cost per unit might be ($50,000 from sales + $70,000 from purchases) / (700 kg + 1,500 kg) = $48 per kg .

A company might choose the moving average method because it smooths out price fluctuations over time by assigning an average cost to all inventory units, which stabilizes the cost of goods sold and profits across periods. This method can mitigate the impact of market volatility on reported earnings and inventory values .

Prepaid expenses are recorded as assets until the associated benefit period occurs, reducing over time through amortization. Unearned revenues are liabilities as they represent obligations to perform services in the future. These accounts are adjusted to reflect the realization of income or incurrence of expense, impacting short-term asset and liability accounts .

Using the moving average cost method, the cost to issue 400 kg of material K is calculated as: (Cost of purchased + beginning balance cost)/Total quantity * Issued quantity = ($1,000 + $2,060)/(500 kg + 1,000 kg) * 400 kg = $816 .

To correct an omitted invoice, the missing transaction must be entered with a debit to the relevant expense or asset account and a credit to accounts payable. For example, for an omitted $250 supplier invoice, the entry would be Dr Merchandise/Material Purchased $250, Cr Accounts Payable $250. The rationale is to ensure completeness and accuracy of financial records by acknowledging all business liabilities .

Company M calculates annual depreciation expense using the formula: (Cost of asset - Salvage value)/Useful life. If a building costs $1,200,000 with a salvage value of $120,000 and useful life of 40 years, annual depreciation is ($1,200,000 - $120,000)/40 = $27,000. The assumption behind this method is that the asset's economic benefits are consumed evenly over its useful life .

When ABC Corporation makes a payment on account, such as paying $100 on account, its liabilities decrease as accounts payable is debited by $100, and its assets decrease as cash is credited by $100. The journal entry would be Dr Accounts Payable $100, Cr Cash $100 .

Recording depreciation affects the Statement of Financial Position by decreasing the value of fixed assets through an increase in accumulated depreciation (a contra asset account). For example, if annual depreciation on a building is $27,000, this reduces the carrying amount of the building and increases accumulated depreciation by $27,000 .

Treating a credit note as an invoice inflates liabilities and expenses erroneously. The remedy is to debit purchases to reverse the mistaken entry and credit the correct account (such as accounts payable or returns). Correction ensures the accuracy of payables and expenses in financial statements .
