, What is the company's net income for the current year using the cash-basis of
accounting? Answer - $38,000
The cash-basis of accounting recognizes revenues in the year cash is collected
from customers regardless of when the performance obligation is satisfied and
it recognizes expenses in the year they are paid regardless of when they are
incurred.
Net income using the cash-basis = Cash collected from customers - cash paid
for expenses incurred
Net income using the cash-basis = $150,000 - 85,000 - 24,000 - 3,000 = $38,000

On September 1, Crestview Company purchased equipment for $25,000. The
equipment's estimated salvage value is $3,400. The machine will be
depreciated using straight-line depreciation and a four year life. If the company
prepares annual financial statements on December 31, the appropriate
adjusting journal entry to make on December 31 of the first year would be a
Answer - $1,800 debit to Depreciation Expense and a $1,800 credit to
Accumulated Depreciation.
Straight-line annual depreciation per year = (Cost - Salvage value)/Life = (25,000
- 3,400)/4 = $5,400 per yearThe correct adjusting entry to record depreciation
for 4 months (i.e., September 1 through December 31) is $5,400 per year x
4/12 = $1,800.The year-end adjusting entry to record depreciation includes a
debit to Depreciation Expense and a credit to Accumulated Depreciation.
