Chapter 11: Other GAAP Concepts and Assumptions
Question 1: Andy runs a real estate development firm. Five years ago, he purchased a piece of land for $250,000. This year, an APPRAISER tells Andy that the land is worth $300,000. At what value should Andy report the land on his BALANCE SHEET? Why?
Question 2: Andy is the sole owner of his firm. In June, he moves $30,000 from his business checking ACCOUNT to his personal checking account. If Andy wants his financial records to be in accordance with GAAP, should he record the transaction or not? Why?
Answer to Question 1: Andy should report the land at its original cost: $250,000. Under GAAP’s “Historical Cost” assumption, assets are reported at their historical cost rather than at their current MARKET value. This is done in order to remove subjective asset valuations from the reporting process.
Answer to Question 2: Yes, in order to be in compliance with GAAP, Andy must record the transaction. GAAP’s “Entity Assumption” considers businesses to be separate entities from their owners. As such, transactions between a business and its owners must be recorded as if they were between the business and an entirely separate party.
Chapter 12: Depreciation of Fixed Assets
Questions 1-6: Prepare JOURNAL ENTRIES to record each of the following events:
Question 1: Liliana spends $20,000 (cash) on a piece of equipment for use in her restaurant. She plans to use the straight-line method to DEPRECIATE the equipment over 5 years. She expects it to have no value at the end of the 5 years.

Question 6: Sandra runs a business making embroidered linens for wedding receptions. She purchases a new piece of equipment for $15,000 in credit. She plans to use the units of production method of DEPRECIATION. The equipment is expected to produce approximately 5,000 linens, at which point it will be valueless. During the first year after buying the equipment, Sandra uses it to produce 1,500 linens.

Cash 15,000
To record depreciation for the first year:
Depreciation Expense 4,500
Accumulated Depreciation 4,500
($15,000 depreciable value ÷ 5,000 units = $3 of depreciation per unit. 1,500 units produce x $3 per unit = $4,500 depreciation expense.)

Ending Inventory: 900 units.
Question 2: Calculate Cost of Goods Sold using First-In-First-Out (FIFO)
Question 3: Calculate Cost of Goods Sold using Last-In-First-Out (LIFO)
Question 4: Calculate Cost of Goods Sold using the Average Cost Method
Answer to Question 1: CoGS = $4,500
Answer to Question 2: CoGS = $2,800
Explanation:
The first thing to calculate is how many units were sold. In this case, 700 units must have been sold. Now we just have to figure out the cost for each unit of sold inventory.
Using FIFO, we assume that the first units purchased were the first units sold. Therefore, all 700 sold units must have been from the older ($4 per unit) inventory. 700 units x $4 per unit = $2,800
Answer to Question 3: CoGS =$3,400
Again, we know that 700 units were sold. Under LIFO, we assume that the most recently purchased units are sold first. Therefore, all 600 of the $5 units must have been sold. The remaining 100 sold units must have been from the older ($4/unit) inventory.
(600 units x $5 per unit) + (100 units x $4 per unit) = $3,400
Answer to Question 4: CoGS =$3,062.50
Using the Average Cost Method, we have to calculate the average cost per unit of inventory. We know that there were a total of 1,600 units available for sale and that–in total–they cost $7,000. That gives us an average cost per unit of $4.38 (or $4.375 to be precise).
To calculate CoGS, we multiply this average cost per unit by the number of units sold. 700 units x $4.375 per unit = $3,062.50
Question 1: Define the three components of the Accounting Equation.
Question 2: If a business owns a piece of real estate worth $250,000, and they owe $180,000 on a loan for that real estate, what is owners’ equity in the property?

Chapter 11: Other GAAP Concepts and Assumptions
Question 1: Andy runs a real estate development firm. Five years ago, he purchased a piece of land for $250,000. This year, an APPRAISER tells Andy that the land is worth $300,000. At what value should Andy report the land on his BALANCE SHEET? Why?
Question 2: Andy is the sole owner of his firm. In June, he moves $30,000 from his business checking ACCOUNT to his personal checking account. If Andy wants his financial records to be in accordance with GAAP, should he record the transaction or not? Why?
Answer to Question 1: Andy should report the land at its original cost: $250,000. Under GAAP’s “Historical Cost” assumption, assets are reported at their historical cost rather than at their current MARKET value. This is done in order to remove subjective asset valuations from the reporting process.
Answer to Question 2: Yes, in order to be in compliance with GAAP, Andy must record the transaction. GAAP’s “Entity Assumption” considers businesses to be separate entities from their owners. As such, transactions between a business and its owners must be recorded as if they were between the business and an entirely separate party.
Chapter 12: Depreciation of Fixed Assets
Questions 1-6: Prepare JOURNAL ENTRIES to record each of the following events:
Question 1: Liliana spends $20,000 (cash) on a piece of equipment for use in her restaurant. She plans to use the straight-line method to DEPRECIATE the equipment over 5 years. She expects it to have no value at the end of the 5 years.
Question 2: After 4 years, Liliana sells the equipment for $4,000.
Question 3: Same as question 2, except she sells the equipment for $6,000.
Question 4: Same as question 2, except she sells the equipment for $2,000.
Question 5: Oscar is a self-employed electrician. He purchases a piece of equipment for $30,000 cash. He plans to use it for 10 years, at which point he plans to sell it for approximately $4,000.He elects to use the straight-line method of DEPRECIATION.
Question 6: Sandra runs a business making embroidered linens for wedding receptions. She purchases a new piece of equipment for $15,000 in credit. She plans to use the units of production method of DEPRECIATION. The equipment is expected to produce approximately 5,000 linens, at which point it will be valueless. During the first year after buying the equipment, Sandra uses it to produce 1,500 linens.
Answer to Question 1:
To record the purchase:
Equipment 20,000
Cash 20,000
To record DEPRECIATION every year:

Cash 4,000
Accumulated DEPRECIATION 16,000
Equipment 20,000
Answer to Question 3:
Cash 6,000
Accumulated DEPRECIATION 16,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment 2,000
Equipment 20,000
Answer to Question 4:
Cash 2,000
Accumulated DEPRECIATION 16,000
Loss on Sale of Equipment 2,000
Equipment 20,000
Answer to Question 5:
To record the purchase:
Equipment 30,000
Cash 30,000
To record DEPRECIATION every year:
Depreciation Expense 2,600
Accumulated Depreciation 2,600
DEPRECIABLE value is $26,000. If DEPRECIATED over 10 years, that’s $2,600 depreciation per year.)
Answer to Question 6:
To record the purchase:
Equipment 15,000
ACCOUNTSPAYABLE 15,000
When the purchase is eventually paid for:
Accounts Payable 15,000
Cash 15,000
To record depreciation for the first year:
Depreciation Expense 4,500
Accumulated Depreciation 4,500
($15,000 depreciable value ÷ 5,000 units = $3 of depreciation per unit. 1,500 units produce x $3 per unit = $4,500 depreciation expense.)

Chapter 14: Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold
Question 1: Using the following information, calculate Cost of Goods Sold:
Beginning Inventory: $3,000
Ending Inventory: $4,500
Purchases: $6,000
Question 2-4: Use the following information to answer questions 2-4.
Beginning Inventory: 1,000 units at $4/unit.
Purchases: 600 units at $5/unit.
Ending Inventory: 900 units.
Question 2: Calculate Cost of Goods Sold using First-In-First-Out (FIFO)
Question 3: Calculate Cost of Goods Sold using Last-In-First-Out (LIFO)
Question 4: Calculate Cost of Goods Sold using the Average Cost Method
Answer to Question 1: CoGS = $4,500
Answer to Question 2: CoGS = $2,800
Explanation:
The first thing to calculate is how many units were sold. In this case, 700 units must have been sold. Now we just have to figure out the cost for each unit of sold inventory.
Using FIFO, we assume that the first units purchased were the first units sold. Therefore, all 700 sold units must have been from the older ($4 per unit) inventory. 700 units x $4 per unit = $2,800
Answer to Question 3: CoGS =$3,400
Again, we know that 700 units were sold. Under LIFO, we assume that the most recently purchased units are sold first. Therefore, all 600 of the $5 units must have been sold. The remaining 100 sold units must have been from the older ($4/unit) inventory.
(600 units x $5 per unit) + (100 units x $4 per unit) = $3,400
Answer to Question 4: CoGS =$3,062.50
Using the Average Cost Method, we have to calculate the average cost per unit of inventory. We know that there were a total of 1,600 units available for sale and that–in total–they cost $7,000. That gives us an average cost per unit of $4.38 (or $4.375 to be precise).
To calculate CoGS, we multiply this average cost per unit by the number of units sold. 700 units x $4.375 per unit = $3,062.50
