WGU C213 Final Exam

Order of assets listed on the balance sheet

Assets are listed in the order of liquidity. Liquidity is the amount of time it would
usually take to covert an asset into cash. Obviously, cash would be listed first,
followed by marketable investments (a company can quickly convert a short-term
investment into cash). Accounts receivable would be listed next followed by
inventory, and long-term investments, fixed assets, and intangibles.

Current assets are listed before long-term assets.

Current liabilities are listed before long-term liabilities, but there is no specific
order they are listed in outside of current and long-term.

There is also no specific order equity accounts are listed on the balance sheet;
although, typically you will see paid-in-capital followed by retained earnings
followed by accumulated other comprehensive income, and lastly, treasury stock.

Evaluating a historical income statement to project a future income statement.

Projected growth for 2017 = 10% increase over 2016 sales.

Step 1: Convert the income statement into a common-sized income statement.

Step 2: Multiply 2016 sales by 1.10 (10% growth) to get the forecasted 2017
sales. Then multiply the projected 2017 sales by the percentages from step 1.

Now, what would you do if you were given the 2017 sales figure and you need to
calculate the 2016 sales figure based off the 10% growth for 2017?

Calculation for 2016: 110,.10 = 100,000


Role of the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in financial
reporting.

Regulates the U.S. Stock exchanges.

Seeks to create a fair information environment in which investors can buy and
sell stocks.

Congress created the first securities act in 1933 and the second securities act in
1934 in response to the stock market crash of 1929.

The Securities Act of 1933 requires most companies planning to issue new debt
or stock securities to the public to submit a registration statement to the public for
approval.

, The Securities Act of 1934 requires a public company to file detailed periodic
reports including audited financial statements (form 10-K is the annual report;
Form 10-Q is the quarterly report).

Granted the legal authority to establish accounting standards. Currently the SEC
accepts the pronouncements set by FASB.

The SEC can suspend trading of a company's stock, and if hearings show that
the issue failed to comply with the securities laws, the SEC can de-list the
security.

Congress strengthened the SEC through the enactment of Sarbanes-Oxley
(SOX), which was enacted after the massive frauds that occurred in the late
1990s and the early 2000s.


Compare and Contrast Traditional Costing to Activity-Based Costing (ABC).

ABC is a more accurate product costing system than traditional product costing
systems.

ABC requires more time and expense to administer than do traditional costing
systems.

Companies with diverse products involving substantially different production
processes, an ABC system yields better cost data and better management
decisions.


Describe how basic cost behavior patterns change as sales volumes change.

Fixed costs (FC) are fixed in total, but as sales volume increases, the per unit FC
decreases.

Variable costs (VC) are fixed per unit, but as sales volume increases, total VC
increases.
