For each item, indicate the (1) type of adjustment (prepaid expense, unearned revenue, accrued revenue, or accrued expense) and (2) the status of the accounts before adjustment (overstated or understated). (Enter your answers in alphabetical order.)
(1)Type of Adjustment (2) Accounts Before Adjustment
(a) Services performed but unbilled totals $600.
(b) Store supplies of $160 are on hand. The supplies account shows a $1,900 balance.
(c) Utility expenses of $275 are unpaid.
(d) Service performed of $490 collected in advance.
(e) Salaries of $620 are unpaid.
(f) Prepaid insurance totaling $400 has expired.

Answer:

(a)Type of adjustment is accrued revenue. The account was understated before adjustment.

(b) The type of adjustment is prepaid expense. The account was overstated.

(c) The type of adjustment is accrued expense which has been understated.

(d) Adjustment type is unearned revenue. The account was understated.

(e) Salaries of $620 are unpaid. - Adjustment type is accrued expense and the account was understated.

(f) Prepaid expense which was overstated before adjustment.

Explanation:

(a) Services performed but unbilled totals $600 - Since the service has been provided, revenue has been earned and should have been recognized with the corresponding debit to the accrued revenue account. Before adjustment, the accrued revenue account would have been understated.

(b) Store supplies of $160 are on hand. The supplies account shows a $1,900 balance. -  This shows that stores supplies of $1,740 (the difference between $1,900 and $160) had been used up and should have been recognized as expense. As such, the type of adjustment is to prepaid expense. The account was overstated before adjustment as the balance should be $160 and not $1,900.

(c) Utility expenses of $275 are unpaid - The adjustment should have been posted to expense and accrued expense. Hence the type of adjustment is accrued expense which has been understated before adjustments.

(d) Service performed of $490 collected in advance - When the advance was collected, unearned revenue should have been recognized. Since it was not recognized before adjustment, the account was understated.

(e) Salaries of $620 are unpaid. - This is an accrued expense as the expense has been incurred but is yet to be paid. A non recognition before adjustment means the account was understated.

(f) Prepaid insurance totaling $400 has expired - This means that the prepaid insurance should have been derecognized since it has expired. As such, the account was overstated before adjustment.

A colleague from the plant in Germany has arrived at the Chicago plant to share insights on a recent product line changeover implemented in Germany. This changeover has saved thousands of euros at the German facility, but Jim does not think it will work in the United States. Jim feels that there is a completely different attitude towards work and innovation in the U.S., and in fact, thinks the German facility is technologically behind his plant. Additionally, the colleague often mispronounces words when he speaks English, and doesn't dress appropriately for the U.S. office. He showed up to work on the plant floor in a formal suit and tie, with dress shoes that had a slippery sole. However, the colleague is a guest, and it is important that Jim pretends to be interested.

M. K. Gallant is president of Kranbrack Corporation, a company whose stock is traded on a national exchange. In a meeting with investment analysts at the beginning of the year, Gallant had predicted that the company’s earnings would grow by 20% this year. Unfortunately, sales have been less than expected for the year, and Gallant concluded within two weeks of the end of the fiscal year that it would be impossible to report an increase in earnings as large as predicted unless some drastic action was taken. Accordingly, Gallant has ordered that wherever possible, expenditures should be postponed to the new year—including canceling or postponing orders with suppliers, delaying planned maintenance and training, and cutting back on end-of-year advertising and travel. Additionally, Gallant ordered the company’s controller to carefully scrutinize all costs that are currently classified as period costs and reclassify as many as possible as product costs. The company is expected to have substantial inventories at the end of the year.

1. Why would reclassifying period costs as product costs increase this period’s reported earnings?

2. Do you believe Gallant’s actions are ethical? Why or why not?
