The following ten items are independent of each other. For each item, indicate the amount of any cash flow that occurs or state that no cash flow resulted from the item. 1. Prepaid rent decreased $20,000 during the year. Rent expense recognized for the year amounted to $30,000. 2. Patent amortization recognized amounted to $30,000. 3. Net income was $100,000; retained earnings increased $60,000; and dividends payable decreased $20,000. 4. Wages payable decreased $12,000 and wages expense for the year amounted to $48,000. 5. The balance in accounts receivable at the beginning of the year was $600,000, and at the end of the year was $175,000. Sales for the year were $1,000,000. The balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts was $20,000 at the beginning of the year and $35,000 at the end of the year. Bad debt expense for the year was $40,000. 6. Sales on account for the year are $1,000 and the balance in accounts receivable increased $200 during the year. All sales are on account. 7. Sale at a gain of $500 of a plant asset costing $4,000 with $2,500 of accumulated depreciation. 8. The balance in accumulated depreciation increased $10,000 for the year. No disposals of plant assets occurred during the year. 9. At the beginning of the fiscal year, merchandise inventory amounted to $30,000. A physical count at year-end showed $37,000 worth of inventory on hand. The balance of accounts payable at the beginning of the fiscal year was $26,000 and at the end of the fiscal year was $30,000. Cost of goods sold for the fiscal year was $42,000. The company uses a perpetual inventory system. 10. The retained earnings account decreased $10,000. Net income for the fiscal year was $15,000. Dividends payable decreased $10,000. ANS: 1. Of the total rent expense, $20,000 represented the expiration of prepaid rent paid for an earlier period while $10,000 of rent was actually paid in cash during the current period. 2. No cash flow is associated with depreciation or amortization; these are noncash expenses. 3. Dividends declared equals $100,000 – $60,000 = $40,000. Dividends payable decreased $20,000 such that $60,000 of dividends were paid. 4. Wages expense for the year was $48,000 and wages payable decreased by $12,000, which means that wages paid must have been $60,000. 5. Begin with the allowance account and determine the amount of the accounts written off ($20,000 + $40,000 – $35,000 = $25,000). Go to the accounts receivable account and calculate the amount of cash collected on receivables ($600,000 + $1,000,000 – $25,000 – $175,000 = $1,400,000). 6. Sales exceeded cash collections by $200 since accounts receivable increased resulting in cash flows of $800. 7. Book value of the plant asset costing $4,000 with $2,500 accumulated depreciation is $1,500. A gain of $500 results from a selling price of $1,500 book value + $500 gain, or $2,000, the amount of the cash flow in the transaction. 8. Depreciation expense for the year was $10,000. There was no cash flow since depreciation is a noncash expense. 9. Cash payments to supplies equal $45,000. This amount is determined by subtracting from cost of goods sold of $42,000 the $4,000 increase in accounts payable and adding the $7,000 increase in inventory. 10. Dividends declared equals $15,000 + $10,000 = $25,000. Dividends payable decreased $10,000 such that dividends paid equals $35,000. | LO 4 15. The following information is available for the Central Company: Central Company Balance Sheet December 31, xxxx ASSETS Current Year Prior Year Cash $125,000 $100,000 Accounts Receivable 515,000 500,000 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (70,150) (60,000) Inventory 660,000 500,000 Prepaid Expenses 80,000 72,000 Equipment 892,000 900,000 Less: Accumulated Depreciation (460,000) (452,500) LIABILITIES Accounts Payable 430,000 370,000 Accrued Expenses 250,000 230,000 Income Tax Payable 58,000 50,000 Central Company Income Statement For Year Ending December 31, xxxx Sales (all sales are on credit) $780,000 Cost of Goods Sold 450,000 Gross Profit $330,000 Operating Expenses: Bad Debt Expense 25,150 Depreciation Expense 11,500 Other Operating Expenses 160,000 Loss on Sale of Equipment 1,500 Income Tax Expense 43,000 Determine the amount of cash flow associated with each of the following items: 1. Cash receipts from customers. 2. Cash payments to suppliers. 3. Cash payments for other operating expenses. 4. Cash received from sale of equipment (no equipment purchases were made during the year and only one sale of equipment occurred during the years). 5. Cash paid for income taxes. ANS: 1. Cash flows from sales to customers for the fiscal year equals the amount of cash collected on accounts receivable. The change in accounts receivable cannot be determined without considering the change in the allowance account. The allowance account had a beginning balance of $60,000, bad debt expense for the year was $25,150, and the ending balance of the allowance was $70,150. The amount of accounts written off against the allowance for the year is $60,000 + $25,150 – $70,150 = $15,000. The change in accounts receivable is determined by taking the beginning balance of receivables, adding credit sales, subtracting the amount of accounts written off, and subtracting the ending balance of accounts receivable. This computation is $500,000 + $780,000 – $15,000 – $515,000 = $750,000, the amount of cash collected from customers. 2. Cash payments to suppliers equals purchases minus increase in accounts payable.Purchases for the period equals cost of goods sold plus increase in inventory, or $450,000 + ($660,000 – $500,000) = $610,000. Change in accounts payable equals $430,000 – $370,000 = $60,000. Purchases minus increase in accounts payable equals $610,000 – $60,000 = $550,000, the total cash payments to suppliers. 3. Cash payments for other operating expenses equals accrual basis operating expenses plus the increase in prepaid expenses minus the increase in accrued expenses, or $160,000 + ($80,000 – $72,000) – ($250,000 – $230,000) = $148,000. 4. Cash received from the sale of equipment equals the original cost of the equipment sold minus the accumulated depreciation on the equipment sold plus the loss on the sale of the equipment. Since no equipment purchases were made during the year, the cost of the equipment sold is $892,000 – $900,000 = $8,000. Depreciation on the equipment sold equals the beginning balance of accumulated depreciation plus the depreciation expense during the period minus the ending balance of accumulated depreciation ($452,500 + $11,500 – $460,000 = $4,000). The loss is given as $1,500. As a result, $8,000 – $4,000 – (1,500) = $2,500, the amount of the cash proceeds. 5. Cash paid for income taxes equals income tax expense minus the increase in income tax payable, or $43,000 – $8,000 = $35,000. | LO 3 16. Statement of Financial Accounting Concepts No. 1 states that one of the objectives of financial reporting is to help “current and potential investors and creditors (and other users) in assessing the amounts, timing, and uncertainty of future cash flows such as dividends or interest payments.” Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) require the use of the accrual basis of accounting. Explain the difference between the accrual basis and the cash basis of accounting and why GAAP requires the accrual basis. ANS: Statement of Financial Accounting Concepts No. 1 assumes that investors and creditors are interested in cash-flow information when evaluating investment opportunities. Accrual information helps investors estimate future net cash flows and the risks associated with these flows. The accrual basis is required under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Accrual basis accounting requires that an event that alters the economic status of a firm as represented in the firm’s financial statements be recognized in the period in which the event occurs rather than when cash is exchanged. The accrual basis focuses on transactions and related events with cash consequences. Under the accrual basis, revenues are recorded when they are earned and expenses when they are incurred. Recognition of expenses or revenues in the accounting records under the accrual basis often occurs before or after the payment or receipt of cash. The earnings figure resulting from application of the accrual basis reflects changes in financial position rather than immediate cash consequences. Accrual basis earnings more fully reflect the resource changes affecting the firm’s net assets for a period than does the cash basis. Financial statement users find earnings information valuable because profits determine the long-run success of a company. Accrual measures, including financial statement ratios, have been found by researchers to be more accurate predictors of business failure. Companies with poor operating cash flows can survive for extended periods of time if creditors are willing to renegotiate and restructure debt. Companies that are growing rapidly may have negative cash flows because these companies may need to invest heavily in capital expenditures. Adjusting journal entries are required under the accrual basis to ensure that revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred. For example, an adjusting journal entry records interest expense before cash is paid since the passage of time results in the obligation to ultimately pay interest. A cash basis accounting system reports only the receipt and disbursement of cash. Cash basis accounting requires few, if any adjusting entries. Cash information is far from useless, however. In the short run, cash flow information is most important since it indicates whether a borrower will produce sufficient cash to pay its liabilities. Creditors are interested in a company’s past and future ability to generate positive cash flows. Research has found that cash flow information increases the overall information content of financial statements. Cash flow information also has been shown to supply risk assessment information beyond that provided by accrual basis earnings information. For example, a company with a strong working capital position but with large amounts of inventories, prepaid expenses, and receivables might be in a weak cash position. The increasing complexity of financial accounting principles and the increasing complexity of financial statements as a result of applying these principles has increased the demand by financial statement users for cash flow information. Under current accrual basis accounting principles, managers also have flexibility to choose among several reporting choices thus allowing the manipulation of earnings under current GAAP. The prevailing view currently is that neither cash flow nor accrual basis information alone is sufficient for a complete understanding of a company’s performance. The relationships between revenues and cash inflows and between expenses and cash outflows can be understood only by studying both types of information.
