A company uses the Allowance method of accounting for Bad Debts. This means that in the period when
an Account Receivable actually becomes uncollectible, the company will reduce Accounts Receivable
and: - ✔✔Decrease the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account (This is a "write-off". The journal entry
is a debit to Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and credit to Accounts Receivable.)
The concept of "accrual" accounting - ✔✔Recognizes revenues when they are earned, and expenses
when they are incurred.
The beginning balance in Accounts Receivable was $5,000. Sales on account amounted to $20,000 and
sales for cash amounted to $18,000. During the period, $7,000 of Accounts Receivable was written off. If
the ending balance in accounts receivable was $1,200, the amount of cash collected from customers is: -
✔✔16,800 (When sales revenue occurs and cash is immediately collected, you increase (debit) Cash and
increase (credit) Revenue. Therefore, the $18,000 is not included as an increase (debit) in A/R. The
$7,000 write-off decreases A/R.)

ABC Company purchases 150 units of inventory at $400 each, under terms of FOB Shipping Point, 2-10-
Net 30. They pay $6 per unit transportation costs on inbound freight with cash. They pay the vendor's
invoice early, taking the early-payment cash discount. This means that one unit of inventory now has a
total acquisition cost of: - ✔✔398 (Set up an inventory T-account to help you solve this problem. Update
the T-account after each event takes place, starting with buying the inventory on account for $60,000 (=
150 units * $400). The journal entry is a debit to Inventory and credit to Accounts Payable.
, Next, record the cash payment of the freight expense of $900 (= 150 units * $6) as a debit to Inventory
and credit to Cash. The Inventory account increases because it was sold FOB Shipping Point.
Because we paid within the discount period, we reduce our inventory account by $1,200 (= $60,000 *
.02). This leaves us with an ending Inventory balance of $59,700 (= 60,000 + 900 - 1,200).
In order to get the acquisition cost of the inventory on a per unit basis, we must divide $59,700 by the
total number of units we bought (150) to get $398 per unit.)

distribution of $5,000 was made to owners during December 2018. What was P&G's Total Equity as
reported on their balance sheet as of December 31, 2018? - ✔✔140,000 (Beginning Balances for 2018:
Contributed Capital $100,000
Retained Earnings $15,000
No change in Contributed Capital, so that stays at $100,000. Retained Earnings increases by $25,000 (=
210,000 - 180,000 - 5,000). Therefore, Total Equity as of December 31, 2018 is $140,000 (= 100,000 +
15,000 + 25,000).)
All of the following appear as line items on the Balance Sheet except: - ✔✔revenues (On the Statements
