At the end of each accounting period, the business reports its performance through the preparation of financial statements. In order to be useful to the various users of financial statements they must be up-to-date. Accounts such as cash, Equipment, Accounts Payable, Common Stock and Dividends are up-to date and require no adjustment at the end of the accounting period. Accounts such as Accounts Receivable, Supplies, Salary Expense and Salaries Payable may not be up to date as of the last day of the accounting period. Why? Because certain transactions that took place in the month may not have been recorded.
The accrued salaries, which are owed to the employees yet have not been paid, are an expense related to the current period. The salaries that are owed to the employees but are unpaid also represent a liability or debt that is owed by the business. The business must make an adjusting entry to record the accrued salary owed as both an increase in Salary Expense and an increase in Salaries Payable. If the business does not make this adjustment the expenses will be understated and net income will be overstated. In addition, liabilities will be understated.

The large auto manufacturer should record sales
revenue when the revenue is earned by delivering
automobiles to Acme or Harris. The large auto
manufacturer should not record any revenue prior to
delivery of the vehicles because the large auto
manufacturer hasn’t earned the revenue yet. The revenue
principle governs this decision.
When the large auto manufacturer records the revenue
from the sale, at that time —not before or after — the
large auto manufacturer should also record cost of goods
sold, the expense. The matching principle tells when to
record expenses.

Depreciation is the periodic allocation of the cost of a
tangible long- lived asset, less its estimated residual
value, over its estimated useful life. All long- lived or
plant assets, except for land decline in usefulness during
their life and this decline is an expense. Accountants
must allocate the cost of each plant asset, except for
land, over the asset’s useful life. Depreciation is the
process of allocating the cost of a plant asset to expense.
Depreciation also decreases the book value of the asset
to reflect its usage.

Unearned revenues are liabilities because The Globe and
Trail has received cash from subscribers in advance of
providing them with newspapers. Receiving the cash in
advance creates an obligation (a liability) for The Globe
and Trail. As The Globe and Trail delivers newspapers to
subscribers, The Globe and Trail earns the revenue, and
the dollar amount of the unearned revenue then goes into
the revenue account.

These ratios indicate a weak financial position. The
business has only $0.92 in current assets for every $1.00
of current liabilities. It could face serious trouble in
paying current liabilities with current assets. The debt
ratio of 51% is not too high, which suggests that, overall,
the business should be able to pay its debts — if it can
generate enough cash to get its current ratio higher.

Req. 3
The accrual- basis measure of net income is preferable
because it accounts for revenues and expenses when
they occur, not when they are received or paid in cash.
For example, on August 11, the company earned $3,500
of revenue and increased its wealth as a result. The
accrual basis records this revenue, but the cash basis
ignores it. On August 24, the business collected the
receivable that was created by the revenue earned on
account at August 11. The accrual basis records no
revenue on August 24 because the company’s increase in
wealth occurred back on August 11. The cash basis waits
until cash is received, on August 24, to record the
revenue. This is too late.

The accrual basis better measures net income. For
example, the accrual basis accounts for the prepayment
of insurance on May 1 as an asset because prepaid
insurance gives the business insurance coverage of the Chapter 3 Accrual Accounting & Income 268
business’ assets for the next five months. The cash basis
ignores the future benefit (asset nature) of the
prepayment and accounts for the prepayment as an
expense.

Req. 3
You may start by offering Williams approximately
$225,000 for the business. His asking price is $308,000
so you are starting out quite far apart. If Williams
appears especially eager to sell out, you may be able to
buy the firm for closer to your highest price of $240,000.
However, if he is not so eager to sell and if you want the
business badly enough, you may have to pay somewhere
between $240,000 and $308,000. It might pay to hire an
expert to value the business’s assets. You may find that
Williams’ price is inflated based on the value of its
assets. You can always raise your offer, but you cannot
decrease it, so start the negotiating process with an offer
around $225,000.
Chapter 3 Accrual Accounting & Income 297
Ethical Issues
Ethical Issue 1
1. The journal entry to record the revenue is:
Dec. Accounts Receivable………...
XXX
Sales Revenue……………..
XXX
The debit to Accounts Receivable will increase total current assets and, as a result, increase (improve) the current ratio.
The credit to Sales Revenue will increase total owner equity and, as a result, decrease (improve) the debt ratio.
2. a. – c. The issue is whether it is ethical to record the revenue in the current year. The contract has been signed, but the implication is that the company will not have done everything it needs to do in order to earn the revenue in the current year. The stakeholders are the company, the bank, the stockholders, and the company’s other creditors. From an economic standpoint, the entry would obviously improve the company’s short term financial position. However, the advantage would probably be short- lived. When the bank finds out about this entry, they will likely protest, and demand immediate payment, so the longer- term economic impact will likely be negative. From a “legal” standpoint, to record this transaction in December violates GAAP by violating the revenue principle . In this case Cross Timbers has not made the sale (has not delivered the merchandise) to the customer and, therefore, has not earned the revenue prior to December 31 of the current year. From an ethical standpoint, recording this revenue violates the bank’s rights for proper disclosure of the company’s income and assets. Revenue should be recorded no earlier than when it is earned. Cross Timbers expects to earn Chapter 3 Accrual Accounting & Income 298
the revenue in January of next year. Cross Timbers clearly cannot record this revenue until it is earned. To do so is not in their best economic, legal (GAAP) or ethical best interests.
3. The authors would suggest either of two actions. Cross Timbers can either:
a. Report the current ratio of 1.47 and the debt ratio of .51 because these are the true values. Then tell the bank of the signed contract for additional work and the hope for a better set of ratio values next year. In some cases, banks will agree to sign a waiver of the terms of loan covenants, meaning that, although the company is in violation, the bank will not move to enforce the covenant. They may give Cross Timbers a “grace period” to cure the violation in the covenant.
b. Pay off some current liabilities before year end. This will improve both the current ratio and the debt ratio. This may enable Cross Timbers to bring its ratio values into compliance with the bank’s requirements.
Chapter 3 Accrual Accounting & Income 299
Ethical Issue 2
1. These transactions — recorded as directed by Almond
— overstate the reported income of the company by
$21,000 ($10,000 + $10,000 + $1,000).
2. It appears that Almond wants to improve the company’s
reported income in order to borrow on favorable terms.
Her action is unethical and probably illegal as well
because she is deliberately overstating the company’s
reported income.
Almond appears to be letting the potential short term
economic advantage of these deliberate misstatements
take precedence. She needs to remember that these
misstatements violate GAAP, and that, depending on
what use is made of the financial statements, could
subject the company to civil or criminal legal
proceedings. If this happens, the short term economic
gains ($21,000) would not even come close to the long-
term economic costs associated with the legal actions,
not to mention the negative publicity. The business
will need a bank loan, and perhaps the money would be
used to pay bills, expand the business, and so on.
However, based on Almond’s lack of integrity, the
money may be destined for her own use. Regardless of
its use, the money is obtained under false pretenses
and cannot be headed for a good outcome.
The bank is harmed by Almond’s and Lail’s actions.
Lending money to Almond under false pretenses may
Chapter 3 Accrual Accounting & Income 300
lead the bank to charge an unrealistically low interest
rate that robs the bank’s owners of interest revenue. In
the extreme, the public is robbed if taxpayers wind up
financing the bailout of a failed institution.
3. Personal advice will vary from student to student. The
purpose of asking this question is to challenge students
to take the high road of ethical conduct by having
nothing to do with Almond’s scheme. The authors would
advise Lail, the accountant, to take these actions, in
order:
a. Refuse to take any part in Almond’s scheme,
explaining that the result is overstatement of reported
income. This is both illegal and unethical, and will
ultimately have a negative economic impact on the
company, as well. Accountants are bound to
standards of ethical conduct that these actions
violate. The can go to prison when caught falsifying
financial statements.
b. To remain ethical, the accountant must be willing to
lose his/her job. It is better to protect one’s
reputation even if that causes a short- term hardship.
