CONTINUING COOKIE CHRONICLE
Natalie has a choice between a sole proprietorship and a corporation. A
partnership is not an option since she is the sole owner of the business.
A proprietorship is the easiest to create and operate because there
are no formal procedures involved in creating the proprietorship.
However, if she operates the business as a proprietorship she will
personally have unlimited liability for the debts of the business.
Operating the business as a corporation would limit her liability to her
investment in the business. Natalie will in all likelihood require the
services of a lawyer to incorporate. Costs to incorporate as well as
additional ongoing costs to administrate and operate the business as a
corporation may be costly.
My recommendation is that Natalie choose the proprietorship form of
business organization. This is a very small business where the cost of
incorporating outweighs the benefits of incorporating at this point in
time. Furthermore, it will be easier to stop operating the business if
Natalie decides not to continue with it once she has finished college.

(b) Yes, Natalie will need accounting information to help her operate her
business. She will need information on her cash balance on a daily or
weekly basis to help her determine if she can pay her bills. She will
need to know the cost of her services so she can establish her prices.
She will need to know revenue and expenses so she can report her net
income for personal income tax purposes, on an annual basis. If she
borrows money, she will need financial statements so lenders can
assess the liquidity, solvency, and profitability of the business. Natalie
would also find financial statements useful to better understand her
business and identify any financial issues as early as possible.
Monthly financial statements would be best because they are more
timely, but they are also more work to prepare.

Assets: Cash, Accounts Receivable, Supplies, Equipment, Prepaid
Insurance
Liabilities: Accounts Payable, Unearned Revenue, Notes Payable
Owner’s Equity: N. Koebel, Capital, N. Koebel, Drawings
Revenue: Teaching Revenue
Expenses: Advertising Expense, Supplies Expense, Travel Expense,
Telephone Expense, Insurance Expense
(d) Natalie should have a separate bank account. This will make it easier
to prepare financial statements for her business. The business is a
separate entity from Natalie and must be accounted for separately.

(a) Responses to Natalie’s questions
1. The mixers should be classified as inventory as they are for resale.
2. A perpetual inventory system will provide better control over
inventory. Because you are dealing with high-value items you should
use the perpetual system.
3. You still need to count inventory to ensure that your records are
accurate and that the inventory that is supposed to be on hand is
actually there. I suggest you should count the inventory once a
month.
