Q

Two methods to record uncollectibles?

A

Direct WO: records bad debt only when AR is considered uncollectible and wo. Only used when a firm can’t estimate uncollectible reliably
Poor BS valuation(overstated), poor matching
Allowance: Required by GAAP.

Q

Two approaches for allowance?

A

IS approach: % of credit sales. Calculate bad debt expense. Matching.
BS approach: % of AR or aging. Calculate allowance for doubtful acct. once calculated - compared to the existing balance in acct - difference = bad debt expense.

Q

What is factoring?

A

Transfer receivables to a factor. Transferor prefers to pay the factor a fee in return for the factor’s administration of the receivables. The factor performs credit checks and collect pmts.

Q

Subsequent measurement of inventory

LIFO or RIM. How to determine?

A

L - CM (cost or MV)
If floor value (NRV - normal profit margin) < RC (replacement cost) < ceiling value (NRV), MV = RC
If floor value > RC, MV = floor value
If ceiling value < RC, MV = ceiling value

25
Q

Selling note receivable. What amount do you receive from the bank?

A

Maturity value less discount.
Maturity value: Face amount + total interest (weighted if length less than a year).
Discount: Maturity value x discount% for remaining (weighted if rate term less than a year).

26
Q

How to compute maturity value when there in no bearing?

A

the face amount = maturity value

27
Q

Under perpetual inventory system, when is the COGS recognized?

A

At the time of each sale

28
Q

COGS consists of which two items?

A

Beg inv + purchases

29
Q

How to compute Ending DV LIFO

A
  1. Covert end inv to base year dollars: End inv/index.
  2. Compute current year layer at base year cost: beg inv base year cost - end inv base year cost.
  3. Covert current year layer to current year cost: #2 x index.
  4. Compute end DV LIFO=Beg DV LIFO + #3
30
Q

How to compute increase to DV LIFO when the original base yr cost is not available

A

Get index from the current yr: current yr cost / base yr cost
Index x base yr cost of the current yr layer

31
Q

When items are purchased as a group, the total cost of the group is allocated using which costs?

A

Replacement cost

32
Q

When gross profit margin on sales is 40%, what % on sales should be used for COGS?

A

60%

33
Q

When mark up is 40% of cost, what’s the relationship between sales and COGS?

A

1.4 cost = sales

COGS = 1/1.4 = 0.71 (71%)

34
Q

Retail inventory method: how to compute end inventory @ retail?

A

EI (cost) = EI (retail) x C/R (cost to retail ratio)

35
Q

How to compute C/R?

A

FIFO: Net pur / GAFS @ retail: pur + markups - markdown)
FIFO LC-M: Net purchase / GAFS (don’t compute markdown)
Average: GAFS @cost / GAFS (beg inv, all markups less markdown)
Average LC-M: GAFS @ cost / GAFS and add back markdown

36
Q

Retail inve method: how to compute COGS?

A

Beg inv + purchases - End inve (end inv retail x C/R)

37
Q

DV LIFO: which method does it use? Is beg inventory and markdown included?

A

FIFO. No. Yes

38
Q

How to compute DV LIFO end inv current index?

A

Beg inv + mark up - sales

39
Q

End inv retail base. How to compute?

A

EI retail current index / ending price index

40
Q

Increase in EI retail base?

A

EI retail base - the base yr amount of the beg inv

41
Q

Increase in EI retail current?

A

Increase in EI retail base x ending price index

42
Q

C/R using FIFO?

A

Cost Net purchase / Mark up

43
Q

Increase in EI cost?

A

C/R x increase in EI retail current

44
Q

EI cost?

A

Beg inve cost + increase in EI cost

45
Q

COGS computation?

A

Beg inv + purchase = GAFS - end inv = COGS

46
Q

Can G/L be recognized for committed inventory change in value? Up to what?

A

Yes. Up to the original contractual amount

47
Q

Accounting treatment of decrease in net assets?

A

Classify as liability for the portion of the purchase price that has no value

48
Q

IFRS: how to measure subsequent value in inventory?

A

LC-NRV

49
Q

IFRS: recovery of change in value permitted? Up to what?

A

Original cost

50
Q

What valuation does the individual item application use?

A

LC-M

51
Q

What’s the result in inventory value when valuing separately each item?

A

Lowest inventory account

52
Q

Does the total loss must be reported immediately when contract is impaired?

A

Yes. Not just the current yr loss

53
Q

Computing note receivable: how when it’s non bearing and when it has contracted rate?

A

No: face amount x PV
Rate: (face amount x PV) + (face amount x contracted rate x term x PV)

54
Q

When is gross margin method allowed?

Is this allowed for financial stmt under GAAP?

A

When it’s not possible to physically count the ending inventory due to destruction and so on.
No.

55
Q

How to compute cost/sales ratio when sales margin is given? When cost margin is given?

A

Set sales to 100. 100 - Cost = Margin given. Then compute Cost/Sales ratio.

Set Cost to 100. Sales - 100 = Margin given. Then compute Cost/Sales ratio.

56
Q

What are three calculations for retail inventory method to get the ending inventory at cost?

A
  1. Ending inventory at retail.
  2. Cost to retail ratio.
  3. # 1 x #2 = Ending inventory at cost
57
Q

Retail inventory method: Included in cost or retail?

58
Q 
Retail inventory method variations:
FIFO.
FIFO, LC-M.
Average.
Average, LC-M.
LIFO.
A

FIFO: Exclude beg inver from both.
FIFO, LC-M: Exclude beg inv from both. Don’t subtract net markdown for C/R ratio.
Average: Normal C/R ratio.
Average, LC-M: Don’t subtract net markdown.
LIFO: Same as FIFO not LC-M.

59
Q

How to compute conversion index?

A

Ending inventory in current year dollars / end inv in base year dollars

60
Q

How to compute index when only the beg inv and layers of each year?

A

Treat it as cumulative. (add all current year cost) / (add all base year cost)

61
Q

Retail inv method: How to compute retail end inv

A

GAFS - sales

62
Q

Selling receivable: JE when it’s borrowing. When sale.

A

Dr: Interest receivable. Cr: Interest revenue.
Dr: Cash. Dr: Interest expense=BV: [Face + (Face x weighted interest%)] - cash received. Cr: Liability on note (face). Cr: Interest receivable.

Dr: Interest receivable. Cr: Interest revenue.
Dr: Cash. Dr: Loss (same amount as interest expense above). Cr: Note receivable (face). CR: Interest receivable.
