Review Questions
1. The statement of financial information provides information about the nature
and amounts of investments in enterprise resources, obligations to enterprise
creditors, and the owners’ equity in net enterprise resources. That
information not only complements information about the components of
income, but also contributes to financial reporting by providing a basis for
(1) computing rates of return, (2) evaluating the capital structure of the
enterprise, and (3) assessing the liquidity and financial flexibility of the
enterprise.
2. Liquidity describes the amount of time that is expected to elapse until an
asset is converted into cash or until a liability has to be paid. The ranking of
the assets given in order of liquidity is:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
(5)
(d)
(e)
(b)
(c)
(a)
Short-term investments.
Accounts receivable.
Inventories.
Buildings.
Goodwill.
3. (1) The values stated are generally historical and not current.
(2) Estimates have to be used in many instances, such as in the
determination of collectibility of receivables or finding the approximate
useful life of long-term tangible and intangible assets.
(3) Many items, even though they have financial value to the business,
presently are not recorded. One example is the value of a company’s
human resources.
4. Classification in financial statements helps users by grouping items with
similar characteristics and separating items with different characteristics.
Current assets are expected to be converted to cash within one year or one
operating cycle, while property, plant and equipment, will provide cash
inflows over a longer period of time. Thus, separating long-term assets from
current assets facilitates computation of useful ratios such as the current
ratio.

Chapter 11
5. Separate amounts should be reported for accounts receivable and notes
receivable. The amounts should be reported gross, and an amount for the
allowance for doubtful accounts should be deducted. The amount and nature
of any nontrade receivables, and any amounts pledged or discounted, should
be clearly stated.
6. Working capital is the excess of total current assets over total current
liabilities. This excess is sometimes called net working capital, with current
assets and current liabilities being the components of working capital.
Current assets and current liabilities consist of items that will be converted
into cash or paid within a year or the operating cycle, whichever is longer.
The working capital components are the financial resources utilized by an
enterprise in its operating cycle.
7. (a) Equity. “Share Capital (________ shares) reacquired and held in
treasury—at cost.”
Note: This is a reduction of equity.
(b) Current Assets. Included in “Cash.”
(c) Investments. “Land held as an investment.”
(d) Equity. “Appropriation for bonded redemption” or “Appropriation for
sinking fund.”
(e) Long-term debt (adjunct account to bonds payable). “Unamortized
premium on bonds payable.”
(f) Intangible Assets. “Copyrights.”
(g) Investments. “Employees’ pension fund,” with subcaptions of “Cash”
and “Securities” if desired. (Assumes that the company still owns these
assets.)
(h) Equity. “Premium on share capital” or “Additional paid-in capital in
excess of par value.”
(i) Investments. Nature of investments should be given together with
parenthetical information as follows: “pledged to secure loans payable to
banks.”
8. (a) Allowance for doubtful accounts receivable should be deducted from
accounts receivable.
(b) Merchandise held on consignment should not appear on the consignee’s
balance sheet except possibly as a note to the financial statements.
(c) Advances received on sales contract are normally a current liability and
should be shown as such in the balance sheet.
(d) Cash surrender value of life insurance should be shown as a long-term
investment.

(e) Land should be reported in property, plant, and equipment unless held for
investment.
(f) Merchandise out on consignment should be shown among current assets
under the heading of inventories.
(g) Pension fund on deposit with trustee should be shown among noncurrent
assets under a separate heading or grouped with similar funds and
deposits in investment section. Note: Some pension funds are not
reported on the balance sheet. This situation occurs when the company
funds the pension plan through another party such that the company loses
control over the funds.
(h) Franchises should be itemized in a section for intangible assets.
(i) Accumulated depreciation of plant and equipment should be deducted
from the plant and equipment accounts.
(j) Materials in transit should not be shown on the balance sheet of the
buyer, if purchased f.o.b. destination.
9. (a) Trade accounts receivable should be stated at their estimated realizable
value. The method most generally followed is to deduct from the total
accounts receivable the amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
(b) Land is generally stated in the balance sheet at cost.
(c) Inventories are generally stated at the lower of cost or market to provide
for any possible losses and to avoid the anticipation of profits not yet
realized.
(d) Trading securities consisting of ordinary shares are generally stated at
fair value.
(e) Prepaid expenses should be stated at cost less the amount apportioned to
and written off over the previous accounting periods.
10. The statement of comprehensive income is important because it provides
investors and creditors with information that helps them predict the amount,
timing, and uncertainty of future cash flows. It helps investors and creditors
predict future cash flows in a number of different ways. First, investors and
creditors can use the information on the statement of comprehensive income
to evaluate the past performance of the enterprise. Second, the statement of
comprehensive income helps users of the financial statements to determine
the risk (level of uncertainty) of income--revenues, expenses, gains, and
losses--and highlights the relationship among these various components.
It should be emphasized that the statement of comprehensive income is used
by parties other than investors and creditors. For example, customers can use
the statement of comprehensive income to determine a company’s ability to
4
Chapter 11
provide needed goods or services, unions examine earnings closely as a basis
for salary discussions, and the government uses the statements of
comprehensive income of companies as a basis for formulating tax and
economic policy.
11. The major distinction between revenues and gains (or expenses and losses)
depends on the typical activities of the enterprise. Revenues can occur from
a variety of different sources, but these sources constitute the entity’s
ongoing major or central operations. Gains also can arise from many
different sources, but these sources occur from peripheral or incidental
transactions of an entity. The same type of distinction is made between an
expense and a loss.
12. Items that are considered prior period adjustments should be charged or
credited to the opening balance of retained earnings. Prior period
adjustments would ordinarily be either corrections of errors made in a prior
period discovered after issuance of financial statements for that period or
retroactive adjustments required.
13. Other comprehensive income must be displayed (reported) in one of three
ways: (1) a second separate income statement, (2) a combined income
statement of comprehensive income, or (3) as part (separate columns) of the
statement of equity.
