ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1.

Accounting is the information system that identifies and records the economic events of an organization, and then communicates them to a wide variety of interested users.

2.

Internal users of accounting information work for the company and include finance directors, marketing managers, human resource personnel, production supervisors, and company officers. External users of accounting information do not work for the company. The primary external users are investors, lenders, and other creditors. Other external users include labour unions, customers, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), and securities commissions.

3.

Internal users may want the following questions answered: • Is there enough cash to purchase a new piece of equipment? • What price should we sell our product for to cover costs and to maximize profits? • How many employees can we afford to hire this year? • Which product line is the most profitable? • How much of a pay raise can the company afford to give me? External users may want the following questions answered: • Is the company earning enough to give me my required return on investment? • Will the company be able to repay its debts as the debts come due? • Will the company stay in business long enough to service the products I buy from it?

4.

Ethics are important because, without the expectation of ethical behaviour, the information presented in the financial statements would have no credibility for the accounting profession. Without credibility, financial statement information would be useless to financial statement users.

5.

(a) Proprietorship: Proprietorships are easier to form (and dissolve) than other types of business organizations. They are not taxed as separate entities; rather, the proprietor pays personal income tax on the company’s profits. Depending on the circumstances, this may be an advantage or disadvantage. Disadvantages of a proprietorship includes unlimited liability (proprietors are personally liable for all debts of the business) and difficulty in obtaining financing compared to other forms of organization. In addition, the life of the proprietorship is limited as it is dependent on the willingness and capability of the proprietor to continue operations.

Answers to Questions (Continued) 5. (Continued) (b) Partnership: Partnerships are easier to form (and dissolve) than a corporation; although not as easy as a proprietorship. Similar to a proprietorship, partnerships are not taxed as separate entities. Instead, the partners pay personal income tax on their share of profits. Depending on the circumstances this may be an advantage or disadvantage. Disadvantages of partnerships include unlimited liability (partners are jointly and severally liable for all debts of the business) and difficulty in obtaining financing compared to corporations. In addition, the life of a partnership can be limited depending on the terms of the partnership agreement and actions of the other partners. (c) Private corporation: Advantages of a private corporation include limited liability (shareholders not being personally liable for corporate debts), indefinite life, and transferability of ownership. In many cases, depending on the size of the corporation, a creditor such as a bank will ask for a personal guarantee which will void the limited liability advantage. In addition, transferability of ownership may be limited since shares are not publicly traded. Disadvantages of a private corporation include increased government regulations and paperwork. The fact that corporations are taxed as a separate legal entity may be an advantage or a disadvantage and corporations often receive more favourable income tax treatment than other forms of business organizations. As mentioned above, depending on the size of the corporation, many of the advantages of the corporate form are not available to a small private corporation. (d) Public corporation: The advantages of a public corporation include limited liability, indefinite life, and transferability of ownership. These features make it easier for publicly-traded corporations to raise financing compared to other forms of business organizations. Corporations often receive more favourable income tax treatment than other forms of business organizations. Disadvantages include increased government regulations and paperwork. In addition, because the shares of public companies are listed and traded on Canadian or other exchanges such as the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), these corporations are required to distribute their financial statements to investors, lenders, creditors and other interested parties and the general public. This requirement involves greater costs to the corporation.

Answers to Questions (Continued) 6.

While both public and private corporations enjoy many of the same advantages and disadvantages, one key difference is that public corporations list their shares for sale to the public on Canadian or other stock exchanges. In contrast, while private corporations issue shares, they do not make them available to the general public or trade them on public stock exchanges. Private corporations may also not enjoy the advantages of limited liability and ease of transfer of ownership that public corporations generally experience because of their size and distribution of shares.

7.

(a)

Public corporations must apply International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Private corporations can apply either IFRS or Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (ASPE).

(b)

The information needs of users of public corporations and private corporations are different. Users of financial information of public corporations require more extensive disclosure. They may also be benefit from the enhanced comparability to global companies provided by international standards. Since private corporations tend to be smaller with easier access to company information, their users do not require as extensive reporting.

8.

The reporting entity concept means that economic activity of any business organization or economic entity is kept separate and distinct from the activities of the owner and all other economic entities. In the case of corporations such as Shoppers Drug Mart, it also means that economic activities of related corporations that are owned or controlled by one corporation are consolidated. The results of these individual companies are also reported separately as separate economic entities.

Solutions Manual .

Assets are what the company owns such as cash and equipment. A liability is an amount the company owes such as accounts payable and income tax payable. Shareholders’ equity represents the residual interest (assets less liabilities) of a company at a point in time and includes share capital and retained earnings, in addition to other possible components. Revenues are an increase in a company’s economic resources from operating activities such as the sale of a product. Expenses are the cost of assets that are consumed or services that are used in the process of generating revenues. Examples include cost of goods sold, rent expense, and salaries expense.

Financial Accounting, Sixth Canadian Edition

Answers to Questions (Continued) 10.

Operating activities are the activities that the organization undertakes to earn a profit. They include the day-to-day activities which generate revenues and cause expenses to be incurred. In order to earn profits, a company must first purchase resources they need to operate. The purchase of these resources (assets) are considered to be investing activities. Finally, the company must have sufficient funds to purchase assets and to operate. While some of the necessary cash will be generated from operations, often the company has to raise external funds by either issuing shares or borrowing money. Financing activities involve the activities undertaken by the company to raise cash externally.

11.

(a)

Two examples of operating activities are revenue generated from providing auto repair services and the expenses related to paying employee salaries.

(b)

Two examples of investing activities are the purchase of property, plant, and equipment, such as a building, and the sale of a long-term investment.

(c)

Two examples of financing activities for a corporation are borrowing money (debt) and selling shares (equity).

12.

Local companies providing services and therefore generate service revenue would include doctors, dentists, law practices and accountants. The names of these businesses would likely include the name of the practitioners or groups providing these services. Local companies providing sales revenue would include farms that provide produce or milk products and the retail stores selling the local produce to customers.

13.

A fiscal year is an accounting time period that is one year in length, but does not have to end on December 31. Corporations can select their fiscal year end based on when their operations are low or when inventory is low. Selecting a fiscal year end when operations are low provides more time for accounting staff to complete the year-end reporting requirements. If inventories are low, this simplifies the inventory count and minimizes the business disruption caused by counting the inventory.

14.

The internal accounting records do use exact figures. However, for presentation purposes, it is unlikely that the use of rounded figures would change a decision made by the users of the financial statements. As well, presenting the information in this manner makes the statements easier to read and analyze thereby increasing their utility to the users. Rounding the numbers to the nearest million does not have a material impact on decision-making using the financial statements.

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity $7,473,721 = $3,150,394 + $4,323,327 (amounts are in thousands of dollars)

16.

A statement of changes in equity explains the changes in the components of shareholders’ equity, such as share capital and retained earnings. Examples of items that increase the components are issue of shares (increases share capital) and profit (increases retained earnings). Examples of items that decrease the components are repurchases of shares (decreases share capital) and payment of dividends (decrease retained earnings).

17.

(a)

The primary purpose of the statement of cash flows is to provide financial information about the cash receipts (inflows) and cash payments (outflows) of a company for a specific period of time.

(b)

The three categories of the statement of cash flows are operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. These categories represent the three principal types of business activities.

18.

The statement of financial position is prepared as at a specific point in time because it shows what the business owns (its assets) and what it owes (its liabilities). These items are constantly changing. It is necessary to select one point in time at which to present them. The other statements (income statement, statement of changes in equity, and statement of cash flows) cover a period of time as they report activities and measure performance that takes place over time.

19.

(a)

The income statement reports profit for the period. The profit figure from the income statement is shown on the statement of changes in equity as an addition to beginning retained earnings. If there is a loss it is deducted from the opening balance of retained earnings.

(b)

The statement of changes in equity explains the change in the balances of the components of shareholders’ equity (for example, common shares and retained earnings) from one period to the next. The ending balances are reported in the shareholders’ equity section of the statement of financial position.

(c)

The statement of cash flows explains the change in the cash balance from one period to the next. The ending balance of cash reported in the statement of cash flows agrees with the ending cash balance reported in the current assets section on the statement of financial position.

EXERCISE 1-13 1.

Yu Corporation is distributing nearly all of this year's profit as dividends. This suggests that Yu is not pursuing rapid growth. Companies that are pursuing opportunities for growth normally retain their profit and pay low, or no, dividends.

2.

Surya Corporation is not generating sufficient cash from operating activities to fund its investing activities. The company is borrowing to finance its investing activities. This is common for companies in their early years of existence. It could also be in an expansion stage.

3.

Naguib Ltd. is financing its assets in a slightly higher proportion through equity than through debt. The company has $450,000 ($200,000 + $250,000) of total assets, which are funded 44.4% ($200,000 ÷ $450,000) by liabilities and 55.6% ($250,000 ÷ $450,000) by equity. Since equity does not have to be repaid and does not require interest payments, the company appears to be in a healthy financial position.

4.

Rijo Inc. does not have any liabilities and its assets are completely financed by equity. This places it in a very strong financial position since there are no outside claims on the company’s assets. This also means that the company is using its own funds to finance assets. While this reduces risk, it may also reduce return if borrowed funds can be employed to generate an internal return higher than the cost of borrowing.

SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS PROBLEM 1-1A (a)

1. The South Face Inc. is an external user of accounting information in assessing the credit-worthiness of their customer. 2. An investor purchasing common shares of Orbite Online, Inc. is an external user. 3. In deciding whether to extend a loan, the Caisse d’Économie Base Montréal is an external user. 4. As an employee of Tech Toy Limited, the CEO is an internal user.

(b)

1. In deciding to extend credit, South Face would focus its attention on the statement of financial position of the new customer. The terms of credit they are extending require repayment in a short period of time. Funds to repay the credit would come from cash on hand and other current assets. The statement of financial position of the new customer will show if the company has enough current assets to meet its current obligations. 2. Since the investor intends to hold the shares for a long period of time (at least five years), s(he) should focus on the company’s income statement. The income statement reports the company’s past performance in terms of revenues, expenses, and profit. This is generally regarded as a good indicator of the company’s future performance. 3. The Caisse is interested in two things—the ability of the company to make interest payments on a monthly basis for the next three years and the ability to repay the principal amount at the end of the three years. In order to evaluate both of these factors, the focus should be on the statement of cash flows. This statement provides information on the cash the company generates from its operations on an ongoing basis. It also tells whether the company is currently borrowing or repaying debt. 4. The CEO should focus on the statement of cash flows as this statement clearly sets out the cash generated from operating activities and the amount the company has spent in the past on purchasing equipment and paying dividends.

1.

The professors should incorporate their business as a private corporation because of their concerns about legal liabilities. A corporation is the only form of business that provides limited liability. Since the professors do not need access to large amounts of investment capital, a private corporation provides the limited liability advantage the professors need.

2.

Joseph should run his bicycle rental shop as a proprietorship because this is the simplest and least costly form of business organization to establish and eventually dissolve. He is the only person involved in the business and is planning to operate for a limited time.

3.

Robert and Tom should form a public corporation when they combine their operations. This is the best form of business for them to choose because they expect to raise funds in the coming year. A public corporation will enable them to raise significant amounts of funds for their manufacturing company. A corporation may also receive more favourable income tax treatment.

4.

A partnership would be the most likely form of business for Darcy, Ellen, and Meg to choose. It is simpler to form than a corporation and less costly.

5.

Hervé is most likely to select to operate his business as a private corporation. This will assist him with the liability of storing goods for others. He will also be able to raise funds to purchase equipment, rent space in airports, and hire employees. It is easier to raise funds through a private corporation rather than a proprietorship or partnership.

At the end of the most recent fiscal year, Canadian Tire has a higher proportion of debt financing and Sears has a higher proportion of equity financing. Canadian Tire financed 35.2% ($4,574.6 million ÷ $12,992.4 million) of its assets with equity and 64.8% of its assets with debt ($8,417.8 million ÷ $12,992.4 million). For the same period, 43.4% ($1,076.4 million ÷ $2,479.1 million) of Sears’s assets were financed by equity and 56.6% ($1,402.7 million ÷ $2,479.1 million) by debt. Canadian Tire is slightly more risky because more of its assets are financed by debt.

(c)

Both retailers typically have low inventories at the end of December and at the end of January as a result of the Christmas sales, with little or no new inventory purchased during the month of January so no major differences in financial position at the end of December compared to January would be anticipated. As long as there were no significant economic events that affected one company more than the other in the intervening period (January), it is unlikely that the different year-end dates would affect the comparison in (b).

In preparing the financial statements, the first statement to be prepared is the income statement, followed by the statement of changes in equity, and then the statement of financial position. Note to instructors: While the statements must be prepared in this sequence, these statements can be presented in a variety of orders. Often the statement of financial position is presented first, as the most “permanent” statement.

(2)

Solutions Manual .

The reason the statements must be prepared in a certain order as indicated above, is that each statement depends on information in the previously prepared statement. For example, the profit figure from the income statement is used in the statement of changes in equity to calculate the ending balance of retained earnings. The shareholders’ equity section of the statement of financial position is then completed using the ending balances of common shares and retained earnings as calculated in the statement of changes in equity.

1. In making an investment in common shares, the Ontario investor is becoming a partial owner (shareholder) of the company. In this case, the investment will be held for at least three years. The information that will be most relevant to him/her will be on the income statement. The income statement reports the past performance of the company in terms of its revenue, expenses and profit. This is the best indicator of the company’s future potential. 2. In deciding to extend credit to a new customer, Comeau would focus its attention on the new customer's statement of financial position. The terms of credit they are extending require repayment in a short period of time. Funds to repay the credit would come from current assets. The statement of financial position of the new customer will show whether the company has enough current assets to meet its current obligations. 3. In order to determine whether the company is generating enough cash to increase the amount of dividends paid to investors, the CEO of Private Label needs information on the amount of cash generated and used in various activities of the business. The statement of cash flows is the most useful statement for this purpose. This statement presents the amount of cash at the beginning and end of the period as well as the details of the amount of cash generated by operating activities and the amount spent on expanding operations (investing activities). 4. In deciding whether to extend a loan, the Drummond Bank is interested in two things: the ability of the company to make its monthly interest payments for the next five years and the ability to repay the principal amount at the end of five years. In order to evaluate both of these factors the focus should be on the statement of cash flows. This statement provides information on the cash the company generates from its operating activities on an ongoing basis. This will be the most important factor in determining if the company will survive and be able to repay the principal and interest on the loan.

The financial statements must be prepared in the order of (1) income statement, (2) statement of changes in equity, and (3) statement of financial position. This is because each subsequent financial statement depends on information contained in the previous statement. The profit from the income statement flows to the retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity. The shareholders’ equity totals (for example, for common shares and retained earnings) in the statement of changes in equity then flow to the shareholders’ equity section of the statement of financial position.

If the company expects to continue to use cash for investing activities and dividend payments in future years, it will either have to generate more cash from its operating activities or from its financing activities (for example, borrow money) as its ending cash balance will not sustain this cash outflow on its own.

PROBLEM 1-9B (Continued) (b)

(1)

In preparing the financial statements, the first statement to be prepared is the income statement, followed by the statement of changes in equity, and then the statement of financial position. While the statements must be prepared in this sequence, these statements can be presented in a variety of orders. Often the statement of financial position is presented first, as the most “permanent” statement.

(2)

The reason the statements must be prepared in a certain order as indicated above, is that each statement depends on information in the previously prepared statement. For example, the profit figure in the income statement is used in the statement of changes in equity to calculate the ending balance of retained earnings. The shareholders’ equity section of the statement of financial position is then completed using the ending balances of the shareholders’ equity components (such as common shares and retained earnings) as calculated in the statement of changes in equity.

Shoppers presents the following five statements: Statement of Earnings (which we call income statement in the chapter), Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet (which we call statement of financial position), Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity (which we call statement of changes in equity), and Statement of Cash Flows. All of the above financial statements, except the Statement of Comprehensive Income, were discussed in this chapter.

Profit is affected by revenue and expenses incurred by Shoppers during the year. An increase in sales does not always translate into an increase in profit.

(c)

Shoppers experienced growth in assets, liabilities, and shareholders’ equity, however its liabilities grew faster than its assets which is not always a positive sign. In addition, despite a 3.1% increase in sales, there was a slight decrease in profit as a result of increased operating and administrative expenses. Jean Coutu experienced a much larger growth rate than Shoppers. Not only did its assets increase by 29.8% but its liabilities declined by 33.5% in the same period. While there was only a small increase in sales revenue, its profit increased by 142.8%. However, it is important to note that the majority of this increase was the result of a one-time gain on the sale of Rite Aid (a drugstore chain in the U.S. formerly owned by Jean Coutu) and is not expected to recur.

(d)

In 2013, Jean Coutu’s fiscal year (March 2012 through February 2013) covers the majority of the same period as Shoppers’ fiscal year (January 2012 through December 2012). The same is true for Jean Coutu’s 2012 fiscal year and Shoppers 2011 fiscal year. Consequently, unless there was a significant economic impact that affected the drugstores in the non-overlapping period of two months (January and February), I would have no concerns about the comparisons made in (c) as they both cover a oneyear period..

BYP 1-3 COMPARING IFRS AND ASPE (a)

Both public and private companies are separate legal entities owned by shareholders. One of the key differences between the two types of companies is the availability of the shares. Shares of public companies are traded on organized stock exchanges and are available to the general public. In contrast, shares of a private company are not made available to the general public nor are they traded on a public stock exchange. Another difference is access to capital. Since public companies are traded on organized stock exchanges, they generally have more access to capital than private companies. Private companies tend to rely upon bank financing for capital. Public and private companies also differ in terms of the amount of information they disclose publicly. Public companies are required to file financial statements with the regulators of the stock exchange. This makes their statements widely available. In contrast, private companies do not have any requirement to make their financial statements publicly available.

(b)

The key users of public company financial statements are shareholders, lenders and other creditors, regulators, analysts, and the general public. In contrast, the key users of private company financial statements are generally lenders and other creditors as well as private shareholders.

(c)

The key difference between the users of users of public and private financial statements is the different areas of emphasis of the users’ objectives and needs when reviewing the financial statements. Users of public company financial statements can represent a wide range with varying levels of understanding about the company and its operations. They tend to be a broad group of users who benefit from detailed disclosure that will help them make the appropriate financial decision to invest or to lend, etc. On the other hand, users of private company financial statements tend to be a small group, who usually have a high degree of understanding of the company and its operations. They consist mostly of lenders and other creditors and a small group of shareholders. These users tend to place a greater emphasis on liquidity, solvency, and short-term cash flow planning.

BYP1-3 (Continued) (d)

One of the main reasons that Canada adopted IFRS is that these global set of standards will be beneficial to investors, lenders, other creditors, and other financial statement users by increasing the comparability and quality of financial statements. In other words, users will be able to make an “apples to apples” comparison. If Canadian public companies had a choice of which GAAP to use then it would entirely defeat the purpose of increasing comparability among public companies.

(e)

Since most private companies in Canada are small to medium-sized businesses, the Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) decided that IFRS, with its extensive disclosure reporting requirements and sophisticated reporting, was not appropriate for most of these companies. However, since private companies can represent a wide range of companies – from large multinationals to small local restaurants, the AcSB decided it was best if private companies have a choice of which standard to adopt. A company’s choice of which GAAP to adopt is generally driven by users’ objectives and needs.

(a) Divide revenue by the hourly rate charged to clients: IMS: $1,020,000 ÷ $17 per hour = 60,000 hours PCS: $900,000 ÷ $30 per hour = 30,000 hours (b) Knowing the hours worked from the above, we can derive the hourly salary by dividing total salary expense for each company by the hours worked as follows: IMS: $600,000 ÷ 60,000 hours = $10 per hour PCS: $450,000 ÷ 30,000 hours = $15 per hour (c) IMS uses larger facilities because its rent expense is higher. This makes sense because they have larger types of cleaning equipment that will need to be stored. Furthermore, the company has a larger staff given the size of its operations and may need more office. (d) PCS has higher other operating expenses because that company owns and operates vehicles. (e) Given that both companies pay interest at the same rate, IMS has the larger bank loan because its interest expense higher. (f) The most significant factor that makes PCS more profitable is the fact that this company charges its clients an hourly rate that is double the hourly wage rate paid to its employees. IMS is not able to charge its clients at double the wage rate?

SERIAL CASE

Cookie Creations is a proprietorship. A proprietorship has a lower administrative burden than a corporation—fewer regulations and procedures to adhere to. She may also have more flexibility in working for herself (or less depending on the demands of the business). In addition, as a separate proprietorship, all of the profits of the business belong to Natalie. However, she also has personal and unlimited liability for the debts of the business. She may also have difficulty in raising capital to grow the business. Koebel’s Family Bakery Ltd. is a private corporation. It would have limited liability for the shareholders’ investments in the business compared to a proprietorship. However, this feature may be negated by a demand from creditors (such as the bank) for a personal guarantee by the shareholders. Profits would be shared with the other shareholders by way of dividends. More regulations and paperwork would be required as a corporation compared to that of a proprietorship, however, more opportunities would also exist to share the administrative burdens and to grow the business.

(b)

Cookie Creations may use a simple form of accounting, possibly even the cash basis of accounting. Given its current size, it likely has no requirements to produce financial statements to external creditors. It could also choose to follow Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (ASPE) if it was required to produce financial statements for external users. Koebel’s Family Bakery Ltd. would most likely use Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (ASPE).

(c)

Natalie will need information on the revenues and cost of the cupcake services and supplies so she can determine if the new contract is profitable. She will need this information more often initially (for example, on a weekly basis) so she can monitor the results of the contract and its impact on the operations of the bakery. She will also need forecasts of cupcake orders to plan the work, determine staffing and delivery schedules, and purchases of supplies. If the cupcake contract requires a loan to expand to meet demand, she will need financial statements so lenders can assess the financial health of the business. Natalie would also find financial statements useful to better understand her business and identify financial issues as early as possible. Monthly financial statements would be best because they are more timely.

The users of Koebel’s Family Bakery would include the existing shareholders (Natalie’s parents), potential shareholders such as Natalie, creditors such as the bank, taxing authorities, such as CRA, and major customers such as the national coffee shop. Natalie’s parents are internal users and they need information to plan, organize and run the company and determine if they can obtain the financing to meet the increase demand. Natalie needs information to determine if her parents’ business is a sound investment for her and what her responsibilities as administrator would be. The national coffee shop needs information to determine if Koebel’s Family Bakery is able to deliver the quantities of cupcakes needed, The users would need all four financial statements—income statement, statement of retained earnings (since it is assumed that Koebel's Family bakery follows ASPE, however, if it follows IFRS then it would be required to prepare a statement of changes in equity), statement of financial position, and statement of cash flows—to assess the financial health of the company.

(e)

The following are examples of activities that Koebel’s Family Bakery is likely to be engaged in: Operating activities would include revenue generated from the sale of cookies or from providing cookie-making lessons, paying for ingredients and supplies to make cupcakes, the payment of utilities for the bakery and interest on bank loans. Investing activities may include the purchase of equipment for the bakery. Financing activities may include borrowing money from the bank (debt) and paying dividends to shareholders (equity).

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1.

Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted into cash, sold, or used up within one year of the company’s financial statement date or its operating cycle, whichever is longer. Examples of current assets include: cash, accounts receivable, merchandise inventory and supplies.

2.

The term operating cycle stands for the average time it takes to go from cash to cash in producing revenue. In a merchandising business, this means the time it takes to purchase inventory, pay cash to suppliers, sell the inventory on account, and then collect cash from customers. In a service business, it stands for the time it takes to pay employees, provide services on account, and then collect the cash from customers.

3.

(a)

Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted into cash, sold, or used up within one year of the company’s financial statement date or its operating cycle, whichever is longer. Non-current assets are assets that are not expected to be converted into cash, sold, or used up by the business within one year of the financial statement date or its operating cycle. In other words, noncurrent assets are all assets that are not classified as current assets.

(b)

Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted into cash, sold, or used up within one year of the company’s financial statement date or its operating cycle, whichever is longer. Current liabilities are obligations that are to be paid or settled within one year of the company’s financial statement date or its operating cycle, whichever is longer. Ideally, current assets will exceed current liabilities for a company. Showing items as current in nature matters because doing so assists the user of the financial statements to assess the business’s liquidity.

4.

(a)

Current liabilities are obligations that are to be paid or settled within one year of the company’s financial statement date or its operating cycle, whichever is longer.

(b)

Examples of current liabilities include: bank indebtedness, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and current maturities of long-term debt.

(b)

The major differences between current liabilities and non-current liabilities are: Difference Source of payment

Current Liabilities Existing current assets or other current liabilities

Non-Current Liabilities Other than existing current assets or other current liabilities

Time of expected payment

Within one year

Beyond one year

Nature of items

Debts pertaining to the Mortgages, notes, loans, operating cycle and other bonds, and other nonshort-term debts current liabilities

Some liabilities, such as bank loans, appear on the statement of financial position with a current and non-current portion. Included in the balance of the bank loan payable are principal payments that will be due in the next year. That amount must be shown as a current liability as of the company’s financial statement date. The remaining principal balance is classified as a non-current liability.

6.

The two components of shareholders' equity and the purpose of each are: (1) Share capital is used to record investments of assets, ie. cash, in the business by the owners (shareholders).

Statements, using the common practice among North American companies, are prepared by classifying the items on the statement of financial position in order of liquidity, ranking the items with the most liquidity first. The statement of financial position prepared using a reverse-liquidity order shows assets first, followed by shareholders’ equity and liabilities. The assets section starts with non-current assets followed by current assets. Non-current assets include goodwill and intangible assets; property, plant, and equipment; and long-term investments, which are normally grouped under a non-current heading. This differs from the separate disclosure of non-current assets without a heading that is more usual in North America. Within the current assets section, items are listed in reverse order of liquidity; that is, cash is normally shown last. Items within the property, plant, and equipment section are normally listed in order of permanency. Shareholders’ equity is shown next, followed by liabilities. The liabilities section presents non-current liabilities before current liabilities, and current liabilities are listed in reverse order of liquidity similar to current assets.

Answers to Questions (Continued) 8.

(a)

Liquidity ratios measure a company’s short-term ability to pay its current liabilities and meet its unexpected needs for cash. Examples of liquidity ratios include: Working capital and current ratio.

(b)

Solvency ratios measure a company’s ability to survive over a long period of time. An example of a solvency ratio is the debt to total assets ratio.

(c)

Profitability ratios measure a company’s operating success for a given period of time. Examples of profitability ratios include: Earnings per share and priceearnings ratio.

9.

The current ratio is a better measure of liquidity than working capital when making comparisons between different businesses. The amount of working capital is an absolute amount. It could vary tremendously depending on the size of the operations of the business. The current ratio on the other hand presents a relationship of the amount of current assets compared to current liabilities and is therefore appropriate as a tool to compare the liquidity of different size businesses.

10.

Current assets include accounts receivable and inventory. These may have increasing balances because of uncollectible receivables or slow-moving inventory. This would cause the current ratio to increase. Even though the current ratio may seem high, it is an artificial measure of liquidity if receivables and inventory cannot be easily or quickly convertible into cash. Consequently, the current ratio alone does not provide a complete assessment of liquidity.

11.

Dong Corporation is more solvent as only 45% of its assets are financed by debt whereas 55% of Du's assets are financed by debt. A company carrying a higher proportion of debt has an increased likelihood of encountering financial difficulties and is therefore considered less solvent.

12.

Raising money using debt adds more risk to a company than raising money through equity because the terms of repayment of debt require cash outflows for the payment of interest and repayment of principal. These payments tap into cash balances that could hurt the company’s liquidity. In contrast to debt, equity does not have to be repaid.

13.

Earnings per share comparisons among different companies are difficult due to variations in the financing structure of the companies and in the number of shares issued. Hence, there is no industry average for earnings per share. On the other hand, since the price-earnings ratio uses earnings per share relative to the market price of the common shares, the ratio can be compared among companies.

Answers to Questions (Continued) 14.

Investors appear to favour TD Bank. Its higher price-earnings ratio indicates that investors are willing to pay more for the company's shares and have more favourable expectations of future growth.

15.

Increases in the earnings per share, price-earnings ratio, and the current ratio are considered to be signs of improvement because: •

An increase in the earnings per share means that the amount of profit per share is greater than in the previous period.

•

An increase in the price-earnings ratio means that the share price has increased at a greater rate than the company’s earnings per share, which implies the market believes future profit will continue to increase.

•

An increase in the current ratio indicates that the company has more current assets available to settle its current liabilities and is more liquid (assuming the components of current assets (e.g., receivables and inventory) are also liquid.

On the other hand, the debt to total assets ratio measures how much of the company is financed by debt. The more debt a company has, the higher the debt to total assets ratio. A company with a higher debt level has increased financial risk due to higher fixed interest and principal repayments, and is less solvent than a company with a lower level of debt. 16.

(a) The conceptual framework is a coherent system of interrelated objectives and fundamentals that can lead to consistent standards. The framework prescribes the nature, function, and limits of financial accounting statements. It guides choices about what to present in financial statements, decisions about alternative ways of reporting economic events, and the selection of appropriate ways of communicating such information. (b) Internationally, the conceptual framework may vary from country to country. Canadian companies use the same framework, whether they are reporting under IFRS or under ASPE.

17.

(a) The primary objective of financial reporting is to provide information useful to existing and potential investors, lenders, and other creditors in making decisions about providing resources to the company. (b) The main users of financial reporting are investors, lenders, and other creditors.

Answers to Questions (Continued) 18.

The going concern assumption states that the business will remain in operation for the foreseeable future. The timing of when the asset will be converted to cash or used in operations and when liabilities are to be paid determines their classification on the statement of financial position. Since the business is expected to remain in operation for the foreseeable future, these elements can continue to be reported in accordance with their respective current or non-current classifications. If the company were about to be shut down, all of its assets and liabilities would be classified as current.

19.

The fundamental qualitative characteristics are (1) relevance and (2) faithful representation. Relevant information will impact a user’s decision by having predictive value, confirmatory value or both. Faithful representation means that the financial statements should reflect the economic reality of what really exits or has happened. The information must be complete, neutral, and free from material error.

20.

Materiality is related to relevance in that they are both defined in terms of what influences or makes a difference to the decision-maker. In order to be relevant to a financial statement user, a transaction or amount must make a difference to the user in the making of a decision. An item is considered to be material if its omission or misstatement could influence the decision.

21.

The four enhancing qualitative characteristics are (1) comparability, (2) verifiability, (3) timeliness, and (4) understandability. There is no prescribed order in applying these characteristics.

22.

The cost constraint means that information will be presented only when the benefit associated with it exceeds the cost of providing it. In attempting to fulfill a completeness objective when obtaining financial information, one could expend considerable resources. The cost of this search may greatly outweigh any benefit in achieving the completeness objective. Consequently, the search for completeness will be restricted by this constraint.

23.

The elements of financial statements are broad categories or classes of financial statement effects of transactions and other events. They include assets, liabilities, equity, income (including gains), and expenses (including losses). The grouping is selected in accordance with the economic characteristics of the transactions.

Answers to Questions (Continued) 24.

The two bases are historical cost and fair value. The fair value basis of accounting is applied to those assets which are intended to be sold and whose fair value is readily available. Securities traded on the stock exchanges would be a good example of assets reported at their fair value. The historical cost basis of accounting is used for most of the remaining assets used by the business. Since in most cases the intention is to use the assets to earn revenue, the fair value of the asset is not as relevant as its cost.

25.

In order to be relevant for decision making, the measurement of elements of financial statements need to reflect amounts that are reliable. For assets that are intended to be sold, the current fair value of the assets becomes the most relevant measurement as it approximates the current amount of cash that could be obtained on the sale of the asset. On the other hand, for assets held for use by the corporation, the value at resale is not as relevant to the financial statement user. In that case, the cost of the assets is the better measurement for reporting the financial statement element. For example, inventory will become cost of goods sold when sold. It is relevant to compare the actual cost of the inventory to the amount of the revenue generated from its sale. Using the cost basis of accounting gives a faithful representation of the transaction that has occurred from the sale of inventory.

The request of the CFO to pay off an accounts payable ahead of the due date is clearly done to manipulate the current ratio. His instructions to make the payment came after he was presented with the calculation of the current ratio. In this case the current ratio which is meant to show Padilla’s liquidity position has been artificially altered by a simple payment on account. That said, it is not unethical to pay an account payable in advance of its due date. Rather, it is the motivation for the transaction that would lead one to conclude that the CFO is acting unethically.

PROBLEM 2-8A (a)

The higher the amount of working capital, the better a company’ liquidity. From 2013 to 2014 Pitka Corporation’s working capital significantly deteriorated. It then went on to deteriorate even further from 2014 to 2015, decreasing by $15,000. A higher current ratio is evidence of better liquidity for a company (assuming the components of the current assets are also liquid). The current ratio for Pitka has been steady from 2013 to 2014, but deteriorated slightly from 2014 to 2015. A smaller (lower) debt to total assets ratio shows evidence of better solvency. The percentage of total liabilities to total assets increased from 2013 to 2014, showing deterioration in the solvency for Pitka. On the other hand, the ratio improved substantially from 2014 to 2015. The higher the earnings per share, the better the profitability. Profitability decreased from 2013 to 2014, but improved from 2014 to 2015. The investors appeared to have less confidence in the future profit of Pitka as evidenced by Pitka's price-earnings ratio, which declined from 2013 to 2014. This view changed as demonstrated by the climb in the price-earnings ratio from 2014 to 2015.

(b)

Liquidity Pitka’s current ratio, although steady in 2013 and 2014, declined slightly in 2015. This trend is of concern given the low level of liquidity the company has with a current ratio of 1.1:1. Solvency Pitka’s debt to total assets ratio improved in the last year. It appears to be reasonable in size, as does the solvency of the company in 2013. Profitability Pitka’s profitability declined and then recovered as is demonstrated by the earnings per share ratio. The price-earnings ratio indicates expectations of improving profitability in 2015.

PROBLEM 2-9A (a)

The objective of financial reporting is to provide information that is useful to existing and potential investors, lenders, and other creditors in making decisions about providing resources to the company. In this case, the information will be used by the team’s bank. Bucky’s suggestions concerning how elements should be reported on the financial statements do not meet the objective of financial reporting. His suggestions would lead to a violation of the fundamental basis on which financial statements are prepared: accrual accounting. The suggested changes to the financial statements would not portray economic reality and would not faithfully represent the performance of the team and the financial position at December 31, 2015. Bucky’s suggestions show bias and an attempt to portray a financial picture that would be perceived as more favourable than it is in reality.

(b)

1. Failing to include the estimated expenses for utilities and the corresponding liability for the utilities already consumed by December 31, 2015 violates accrual accounting. The expense was incurred and a liability exists and although the exact amount is not known, a reasonable estimate can be made as this type of expense occurs often. The definitions of the elements have been met. Failing to include the expense would represent an error of omission done on purpose to increase the profitability and reduce the liabilities of the team at December 31, 2015. 2. Unless the company uses the revaluation model for all of its long-lived assets, the suggestion of increasing the value of building to its fair value would violate the cost basis of accounting. It is likely far more relevant to the financial statement user of this type of company to see the original purchase price of the building rather than its fair value as it is unlikely to be resold soon. Consequently, assets and revenue (from the recording of an unrealized gain from the increase in the value of the asset) would be overstated if the Bucky’s instructions were followed. 3. The signing bonus paid to Wayne Crosby does not represent an asset at December 31, 2015. No future benefit can be derived from this payment as it was not conditional upon the occurrence of a future event. Consequently, the expenditure does not fit the definition of an asset.

PROBLEM 2-10A (a)

The advantage of the fair value basis of accounting is that it represents a more up-todate measurement of the value of the asset reported. Consequently, the amounts reported are more relevant to the financial statement users. The disadvantage of the fair value basis of accounting and corresponding advantage of historical cost is that historical cost is more reliable and shows the amount paid for the asset. The historical cost might provide a more faithful representation because it can be easily verified and is neutral.

(b)

The reason a company might choose to adopt the fair value basis of accounting for real estate is that assets reported on the statement of financial position will have higher values than they would using the historical cost of these assets. It is inherent in the nature of real estate that the land will increase in value over time. Creditors will find the fair value a more relevant basis for making lending decisions. The increase in the assets will have a corresponding increase in equity.

(c)

The reason a company might choose to adopt the cost basis of accounting for real estate is that assets reported on the statement of financial position will have more faithful representation because it reports the actual cost of the asset when it was acquired and this measurement can be easily verified and it is neutral. There is also a significant cost to obtaining reliable fair value information on a regular basis to be reported in the financial statements.

(d)

When comparing real estate companies, the reader is well advised to read the accounting policy note to the financial statements disclosing the measurement policy used for the real estate property. One would need to determine the corresponding fair value for real estate for the company using the cost basis of accounting. In fact, this information is required to be disclosed for real estate companies even if they adopted the cost basis of accounting to improve comparability and disclosure. Otherwise, trying to compare businesses that use different bases of accounting would be very difficult.

The higher the amount of working capital, the better a business’ liquidity. From 2013 to 2014, Giasson Corporation’s working capital improved. It then deteriorated from 2014 to 2015, decreasing by $6,000. A higher current ratio is evidence of better liquidity for a business, assuming all components of current assets are also liquid. The current ratio for Giasson has been deteriorating steadily from 2013 to 2015. A smaller debt to total assets ratio shows evidence of better solvency. The percentage of total liabilities to total assets increased from 2013 to 2014, showing deterioration in the solvency for Giasson. On the other hand the ratio remained somewhat stable from 2014 to 2015, declining (improving) slightly. The higher the earnings per share, the better evidence of an improved profitability. Profitability increased from 2013 to 2014 but declined significantly from 2014 to 2015 indicating poorer profitability. The investors appear to have less confidence in the future profitability of Giasson as evidenced by Giasson's price-earnings ratio which declined from 2013 to 2015.

Liquidity Giasson’s current ratio, although declining over the last two years, demonstrates adequate liquidity. There are $1.50 of current assets available to cover each $1 of current liabilities.

The objective of financial reporting is to provide information that is useful to existing and potential investors, lenders, and other creditors in making decisions about providing resources to the company. Virginia’s suggestions concerning how elements should be reported on the financial statements do not meet the objective of financial reporting. Her suggestions would lead to a violation of the fundamental basis on which financial statements are prepared: accrual accounting. The suggested changes to the financial statements would not portray the economic reality and would not faithfully represent the performance of the construction company and the financial position at its year end. Virginia’s suggestions show bias and an attempt to portray a financial picture that would be perceived as more favourable than it is in reality.

(b)

1. Failing to include the estimated expense and the related liability for the damages that have already occurred by the end of the year violates accrual accounting. The expense was incurred and a liability exists that can be estimated. The definitions of the elements have been met. Failing to include the expense would represent an error of omission done on purpose to increase the profitability and reduce the liabilities of the construction company at its year end. 2. The suggestion of increasing the revenues from construction would result not only in the recording of revenue but the recording of an accounts receivable. The revenue from construction has not been earned as no work has been performed. Furthermore, no account receivable should be recorded because no asset exists yet. Because revenue would be overstated if recorded, equity would also be overstated if the Virginia’s instructions were followed. Virginia’s suggestions would not faithfully represent the reality of the performance of Ace Construction Limited for the current fiscal year. 3. Although there are no fixed repayment terms for the bank overdraft, the bank can require repayment on demand since no contract or agreement has been entered into to delay the repayment of the overdraft. For this reason, the classification of the bank overdraft as a non-current liability would falsely portray the financial position of Ace Construction Limited at the year end. When assessing the construction company’s liquidity, the users of the financial statements would be misinterpreting the financial position because of this misclassification. Classifying the debt as non-current would not faithfully represent the economic reality of the construction company’s liquidity position.

PROBLEM 2-10B (a)

The advantage of the fair value basis of accounting it that it represents a more up-todate measurement of the value of the asset reported. Consequently, the amounts reported are more relevant to the financial statement users. The disadvantage of the fair value basis of accounting and corresponding advantage of historical cost is that historical cost is more reliable and shows the amount paid for the asset. The historical cost might provide a more faithful representation because it can be easily verified and is neutral.

(b)

The following is the recommended basis of measurement that should be used for the following purchases: 1. Due the nature of the asset, a textbook purchase should be recorded at the cost basis of accounting because of its intended use. The objective of owning the asset is to use it and not to resell it. 2. In the case of an iPad, the use of the asset will be limited due to technological obsolescence. Because of this obsolescence, the iPad purchase should be recorded and reported using the cost basis of accounting. 3. Software is very similar to the iPad of item 2 above in that it becomes technologically obsolete very quickly. On the other hand, the manufacturer has recognized this problem and has included in the sale of the software, automatic upgrades to attempt to deal with the future needs and demands of the purchaser. This asset is purchased for use and not for resale at a gain and consequently the cost basis of accounting should be used for its recording and reporting. 4. If the purchase of the used car is for use in the business, the cost basis of accounting should be used. On the other hand, if the purchase is for resale, the fair value basis of accounting should be used. 5. Since the intention of the buyer of land is to eventually build a home on the land, the purchase of the land should be recorded using the cost basis of accounting. If the intention changes over the years and the buyer decides to resell the property and intends to hold the land for resale at a gain, the reporting of the asset should change to the fair value basis of accounting used for investments, assuming the fair value is readily available.

Total current assets were $2,764,997,000 at December 29, 2012, and $2,695,647,000 at December 31, 2011. Total assets were $7,473,721,000 at December 29, 2012, and $7,300,310,000 at December 31, 2011.

(b)

Current assets are listed in the order of liquidity from most to least liquid. Cash is the most liquid asset and is reported first. Non-current assets are listed in order of permanency, with property, plant, and equipment listed first.

(c)

The current liabilities total $2,334,917,000 at December 29, 2012 and $1,776,238,000 at December 31, 2011. The total liabilities at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were in the amount of $3,150,394,000 and $3,032,480,000, respectively.

(d)

The current liabilities are listed in order of due date from those due first to those due last, with bank indebtedness and commercial paper listed first. It is not clear what order was chosen for non-current liabilities. Accounting standards do not suggest any particular order for the presentation of non-current liabilities.

Shoppers Drug Mart (in thousands, except per share information) $2,764,997 – $2,334,917

= $430,080

2. Current ratio

$421.9 $265.3

3. Debt to total assets

5. Price-earnings ratio

$15.78 $2.57

(b)

$2.92

= 6.1 times

$42.80 $2.92

= 14.7 times

Liquidity: Working capital is not comparable, because of the differing sizes of the two companies involved. However, using the current ratio to assess liquidity, we can determine that Jean Coutu is significantly more liquid than Shoppers and well ahead of the industry average. Solvency: The higher a company’s percentage of debt to total assets is, the greater the risk that this company may be unable to meet its maturing obligations. Jean Coutu’s debt to total assets is very low at 20.2%, which means that it is primarily financed by equity. Shoppers’ debt to total assets ratio of 42.2% is higher (worse) than that of Jean Coutu and the industry average of 30.6%. Profitability: The earnings per share between two companies are not comparable. However, based on the price-earnings ratio, Shoppers is favoured by investors. Jean Coutu’s price-earnings ratio falls far below that of Shoppers, but both are well below the industry average of 42.0 times.

BYP 2-3 COMPARING IFRS AND ASPE (a)

McCain’s multinational structure means that accounting personnel from various countries are involved with preparing financial statements. Since IFRS is a global standard, most of the accounting personnel would be familiar with IFRS. Also, by using one standard across all subsidiaries, there is no need to make adjustments for various GAAP differences (this was often the case for Canadian multinationals prior to the adoption of IFRS). For McCain, it means that the company will reduce cost as well as the chance for errors. In addition, the users of McCain’s financial statements are located throughout the world. Those located in countries using IFRS, or wishing to compare McCain’s statements to other global companies, would better understand financial statements prepared using this standard.

(b)

Relevance – Researchers have found that companies who voluntarily adopt IFRS find that IFRS’ accounting measures are better tools for evaluating performance. Therefore IFRS statements are more relevant to McCain’s management. Also, when global lenders are looking at financial statements prepared according to IFRS, they are no longer concerned about differences in GAAP. This increases the relevance to lenders. Faithful Representation – In comparison to ASPE, IFRS has a requirement for more detailed information to be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. From a user’s perspective, more information and explanation is provided to help understand the economic event being depicted. Comparability - McCain Foods is a global company that competes against various other global companies (most of whom follow IFRS). By adopting IFRS, it is easier for McCain to compare its results to other similar companies. This information would be useful to both internal users (management and shareholders) as well as external (lenders). Understandability – When different accounting standards are used by various companies within a corporate group they are less understandable. Furthermore, when users are not resident in the country where the head office of the company is located, they often have a difficult time understanding financial statements that are presented using standards that they are not familiar with. For instance, a McCain manager in a United States subsidiary that follows U.S. GAAP may have difficulty understanding the statements of a McCain subsidiary located in the U.K. (that follows IFRS).

(a)

Sheila paid $25,000 for 10,000 common shares of Kenmare Architects Ltd. (or $2.50 per share) when the company was formed. This amount is reported as the balance in the Common Shares account on the statement of financial position of December 31, 2014. Sheila’s mother paid $10,000 for 1,000 common shares (or $10.00 per share) in early 2015. This amount paid can be determined by calculating the increase of $10,000 ($35,000 less $25,000) in the Common Shares account on the statement of financial position of December 31, 2015.

(b)

By December 31, 2014, Uncle Harry wanted $8,000 of the loan paid off in 2015. This amount is classified as the current portion of the loan due at December 31, 2014. The actual amount of principal paid in 2015 was $30,000. This amount paid can be determined by calculating the total decrease in the loan payable from December 31, 2014 to December 31, 2015: [($52,000 + $8,000) less ($26,000 + $4,000)]. During 2014 Uncle Harry received interest only in the amount of $3,600 as indicated in the statement of income for interest expense. In 2015, Uncle Harry received $32,700. This amount is equal to the principal repayment of $30,000 and the interest of $2,700.

(c) Current ratio

2015 $46,000 $33,580

= 1.4:1

2014 $31,000 $22,490

= 1.4:1

Although the current ratio is unchanged, we need to examine further, the account balances that make up the ratio components. There has been deterioration in liquidity due to the declining cash balance and the significant rise in accounts receivable which may indicate difficulty in collecting amounts owed from customers. This decreased cash flow from customers has probably caused the increase in accounts payable as the company seems to have delayed payment to suppliers.

2015 $59,580 $106,000

= 56.2%

2014 $74,490 $103,000

= 72.3%

Kenmare’s solvency improved significantly. The decrease in the ratio occurred mainly because of changes in the numerator rather than in the denominator. Total liabilities fell because of the large pay down of the loan from the uncle even though accounts payable rose. This had an impact on the income statement by lowering interest expense because of the lower loan balance. Because Kenmare’s debt level is lower, the amount of interest expense is also lower making the business more profitable. (e) Earnings per share

2015 $7,910 11,000

= $0.72

2014 $3,510 10,000

= $0.35

The earnings per share more than doubled because profit more than doubled while there was only a 10% increase in the number of shares. (f)

Sheila paid $2.50 per share for her shares ($25,000 ÷ 10,000). The amount Sheila’s mother paid for her shares was $10.00 per share ($10,000 refer to part (a) above ÷ 1,000). 2015 2014 Price-earnings $10.00 = 13.9 times $2.50 = 7.1 times ratio $0.72 $0.35 The service revenue increased 20% from 2014 to 2015 [($120,000 – $100,000) ÷ $100,000]. The profit increased by 125% from 2014 to 2015 [($7,910 – $3,510) ÷ $3,510]. Sheila’s salary increased by 25% from 2014 to 2015 [($74,000 – $59,000) ÷ $59,000]. The value of the price-earnings ratio changed mostly because of the price difference paid by the two shareholders. Sheila’s mother paid four times the price Sheila paid for her shares. This increase is very dramatic taking into account other ratios for measurement of performance. The fourfold increase in the share price is not justified by the financial performance of the business. The future profitability of the business is based on the amount of service revenue that can be generated by the single employee, Sheila, and is therefore limited.

BYP 2-5 ETHICS CASE

(a)

The stakeholders in this case are: Kathy Onishi, controller Redondo’s vice-president Users of the company's financial statements, including shareholders and creditors

(b)

The ethical consideration in this situation is whether or not switching from ASPE to IFRS would affect the decisions of the users of the financial statements. Because Redondo Corporation is a private corporation, the use of IFRS is not required. It is ethically preferable to disclose the most financially relevant information to the users of the financial statements so that they can make informed decisions. One should question the reasoning of Redondo’s vice-president who is focusing on the effect of the implementation on the profit for the year.

(c)

As the controller, by supporting the conversion from ASPE to IFRS, Kathy could gain the trust and respect of the board of directors and the shareholders in general. The users of the company’s financial statements will find the information provided under IFRS to be more useful in making comparisons with Redondo’s competitors. This in turn will lead to better decisions being made by users of the financial statements.

SERIAL CASE

Biscuits’ financial statements likely include the statement of financial position, income statement, statement of changes in equity, and statement of cash flows. It may or may not also include a statement of comprehensive income combined with, or separate from, the income statement (not covered as yet in the text). It will also include the notes to the financial statements. The statement of financial position reports the assets, liabilities, and shareholders’ equity of a company at a specific date. The income statement presents the revenues and expenses and resulting profit or loss of a company for a specific period of time. The statement of changes in equity summarizes the changes in equity accounts, including common shares and retained earnings, for a specific period of time. Finally, the statement of cash flows provides information about the cash inflows and cash outflows for a specific period of time.

(b)

Because Biscuits is public company, it is required to have its financial statements audited by an independent licensed public accountant. The date appearing on the auditor’s report which appears immediately before the financial statements is the date when the audit was completed and the financial statements were made available to the public.

(c)

By looking at the statement of financial position and determining the composition of Biscuits’ current assets and current liabilities, we can assess its ability to pay its shortterm obligations. We can also calculate liquidity ratios, such as working capital and the current ratio, for the current and prior periods to help determine its ability to meet its current obligations. This will not guarantee that Biscuits will be able to pay your invoices in the future but will provide some assurance with respect to how they have performed in the past. The statement of cash flows will also provide information to determine if Biscuits generates positive cash flows from its operations.

(d)

By looking at the types of revenues and expenses reported in the income statement, we can determine if Biscuits is profitable. If revenues earned by Biscuits exceed expenses incurred, then Biscuits is profitable. As well, profitability ratios can be determined which measure a company’s ability to generate profit over a period of time. These profitability ratios include earnings per share and price-earnings ratio. The latter measures investors’ expectations about Biscuits’ future profitability.

By looking at the statement of financial position, we can determine if Biscuits has any non-current debt. We can also calculate solvency ratios, such as the debt to total assets ratio, to determine whether Biscuits has the ability to repay its non-current debt. Solvency ratios help measure a company’s ability to survive over a long period of time. Reviewing the company’s income statement and statement of cash flows will help in determining whether Biscuits is able to pay its interest expense. The more profitable the company, the better able it is to make the interest payments on its debt and generate sufficient cash to repay its non-current obligations.

(f)

Be aware that the financial statements of Biscuits provide a historical perspective of what has already taken place. The financial statements may not prove to be the best indicator of what will happen in the future. Consumer tastes change and as a result the demand for Biscuits’ product may also change. As well, consider this business opportunity from your perspective. Ask yourself if the price obtained for the cookies is reasonable considering some of the risks involved. There is a risk that by taking on this obligation, additional opportunities cannot be pursued. Does Koebel’s Family Bakery have the ability to meet the demands of Biscuits? Is it able to produce 1,500 dozen cookies a week? Does it have enough staff to enable the company to do so? Does it have a large enough oven and other equipment required to do so? Does it have enough cash to pay for the staff that will be required, for supplies, for utilities, etc., and wait 30 days from the time in which the invoice is received by Biscuits until it is paid?

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1.

An accounting information system is a system of collecting and processing transaction data and communicating financial information to decision-makers. Some factors that shape these systems are the type of business and its transactions, the size of the company, the amount of data, and the information that management and other users need.

2.

Only events that cause a change in an asset, liability, or shareholders’ equity account are recorded as accounting transactions. Other events, such as the agreement to provide a service, do not immediately impact an asset, liability, or shareholder’s equity account and, therefore, are not considered an accounting transaction.

3.

Accounting transactions are the economic events of the company recorded by accountants because they affect the accounting equation assets = liabilities + shareholders’ equity. (a) (b)

(c) (d)

(e)

Winning an award is not an accounting transaction, as it does not affect the accounting equation. The award did not involve the receipt of an asset, such as cash. Supplies purchased on account is an accounting transaction because it affects the accounting equation (assets are increased because supplies were received and liabilities are increased because accounts payable were incurred). A shareholder dying is not an accounting transaction, as it does not affect the accounting equation. Paying a cash dividend to shareholders is an accounting transaction as it does affect the accounting equation (shareholders’ equity is decreased and assets (cash) are decreased). The agreement to provide legal services to the company is not an accounting transaction as it does not affect the accounting equation. No expense has been incurred yet and no liabilities like accounts payable have been affected.

4.

Yes, a business can enter into a transaction in which only the left side of the accounting equation is affected. An example would be a transaction where an increase in one asset is offset by a decrease in another asset. A decrease in the Accounts Receivable account which is offset by an increase in the Cash account is a specific example (that is, a customer paying for goods previously purchased on account).

5.

(a) (b) (c) (d) (e)

Decrease assets and decrease shareholders' equity (an expense has been increased). Increase assets and increase liabilities. Increase assets and increase shareholders' equity (common shares has increased). Decrease shareholders' equity (an expense has been increased) and decrease assets. Increase one asset (cash) and decrease another asset (accounts receivable).

Answers to Questions (Continued) 6.

Natalie is incorrect. A debit balance only means that debit amounts or transactions affecting an account exceed the credit amounts or transactions in an account. Conversely, a credit balance only means that credit amounts are greater than debit amounts in an account. Thus, a debit or credit balance is neither favourable nor unfavourable.

7.

Shareholders' equity consists of different components, and they do not all move in the same direction. Shareholders’ equity is usually comprised of share capital (which is increased by credits) and retained earnings. Retained earnings can be further subdivided into revenues and expenses and dividends which are then added to opening retained earnings. Revenues are increased by credits while expenses and dividends are increased by debits.

12. (a)

(b) (c)

(d)

A general journal is a book of original entry, in which transactions are recorded in chronological order. The general journal facilitates the recording process by documenting the debit and credit effects on specific accounts. The general journal discloses the complete effect of a transaction in one place, including an explanation and, where applicable, identification of the source document. The general journal provides a chronological record of transactions and it helps to prevent and locate errors, because the debit and credit amounts for each entry can be quickly compared. Including a date in a journal entry is important because it is necessary to identify which accounting period is affected by a transaction. Other transactions may follow which are based on the date of the journal entry. For example, the date a sales invoice is recorded may determine when the date of payment for the invoice is due. Recording debit entries first is important because it visually separates the accounts involved in the left side of the transaction. Indenting credit entries is important because the indentation differentiates debits from credits and decreases the chance of switching the debit and credit amounts by mistake. Including a brief explanation to the journal entry is important because it provides the background information that might be necessary to interpret the transaction recorded.

13. While the account title choices suggested by Meghan provide details of the type of truck the company purchased, the title of the account used to record the purchase should be more generic to include all types of trucks that can be owned and used by the business. Ambiguous or multiple account titles with similar names can lead to incorrect financial reporting. Unless the business is intending on purchasing more than one type of truck the name of the account that should be used is Trucks or Vehicles. 14. This would not be efficient because the journal provides a record that shows both “sides” of the transaction along with a description of the transaction. This information is vital to the understanding of the event. Furthermore, if there is a large volume of transactions, a company will not post individual transactions to the general ledger; instead totals of transactions are posted. For example, if 1,000 sales transactions occurred in a month, only one amount (the total of sales for the month) would be posted to the sales account in the general ledger (there would still be 1,000 journal entries in the general journal, however). 15. Posting should be done on a timely basis, at least monthly, so that account balances can be monitored and reconciled.

The general ledger is the entire group of accounts maintained by a company, including all the asset, liability, and shareholders' equity accounts, including share capital, retained earnings, dividend, revenue, and expense accounts. The general ledger is often arranged in the order in which accounts are presented in the financial statements, beginning with the statement of financial position accounts. The asset accounts come first, followed by liability accounts, and then shareholders’ equity accounts, including the share capital, retained earnings, dividend, revenue, and expense accounts. The chart of accounts is a list of a company’s accounts. The chart of accounts is important, particularly for a company that has a large number of accounts because it helps organize the accounts and identify their location in the ledger. Numbering the accounts helps identify and sort the accounts.

18. Cash, supplies, prepaid insurance, unearned revenue, common shares, dividends, service revenue, and income tax expense. 19. (a)

(b)

A trial balance is a list of accounts and their balances at a point in time. The primary purpose of a trial balance is to prove the mathematical equality of debits and credits after all journalized transactions have been posted. A trial balance also facilitates the discovery of errors in journalizing and posting. In addition, it is useful in preparing financial statements. The trial balance is prepared using the account balances from the general ledger.

20. While it does not matter in what order the accounts are listed in the trial balance, it is usual for the accounts in the trial balance to be listed in the same order as they are listed in the general ledger (asset accounts, liability accounts, and shareholders’ equity accounts, including share capital, retained earnings, dividend, revenue, and expense accounts). This makes it easier to compare the trial balance accounts to the general ledger accounts, as well as later to prepare the financial statements from the trial balance. 21. The retained earnings account in the trial balance shows the beginning balance of the period as it has not yet been updated for the effect that the revenues, expenses, and dividends have on retained earnings for the current accounting period. (Note to instructors: This chapter only includes references to a pre-closing trial balance; the post-closing trial balance is not introduced until Chapter 4.)

Answers to Questions (Continued) 22. (a)

(b) (c)

The trial balance will not balance because two debits were posted instead of a debit to Supplies and a credit to Accounts Payable. Total debits will exceed total credits by an amount that is equal to twice the value of the entry that was not posted correctly. The trial balance will still balance as a debit and a credit have been recorded for the same amount. Total debits will equal total credits. No, the trial balance will not balance as the amount posted as a debit is greater than the amount posted as a credit. The total debits will be higher by the difference in the two amounts posted.

23. The first four steps in the accounting cycle are: (1) (2) (3) (4)

Analyze the business transactions and determine their effects on the accounting equation and also determine when and how to record the transactions. Journalize the transactions in the general journal to record the effects of the transactions on the accounts involved in the transactions. Post to the general ledger accounts to provide an accumulation of the effect of several journalized transactions in the individual accounts. Prepare a trial balance to prove that the sum of the debit account balances equals the sum of the credit account balances after posting.

PROBLEM 3-6A (Continued) (c)

This suggestion is not a good idea. Journals are used to record transactions. Ledgers are not intended to be used to capture the recording of transactions, but to tabulate the effects of transactions in separate accounts. The balances arrived at in the ledger are then used to communicate information to the users of the financial statements. If one attempted to omit the use of journal entries, one could not retrace the transactions as they originated in the journal. One would only see one side of a transaction at a time by looking at an account in the ledger. It would become very confusing and unruly to try to keep track of transactions.

PROBLEM 3-6B (Continued) (c)

This suggestion is not a good idea. Journals are used to record transactions. Ledgers are not intended to be used to capture the recording of transactions, but to tabulate the effects of transactions in separate accounts. The balances arrived at in the ledger are then used to communicate information to the users of the financial statements. If one attempted to omit the use of journal entries, one could not retrace the transactions as they originated in the journal. One would only see one side of a transaction at a time by looking at an account in the ledger. It would become very confusing and unruly to try to keep track of transactions.
