Adjusting Entries & Adjusted Trial Balance

Q.1 Among the ledger accounts used by Glenwood Speedway are the following:

Prepaid Rent, Rent Expense, Unearned Admissions Revenue, Admissions Revenue,


Prepaid Printing, Printing Expense, Concessions Receivable, and Concessions Revenue.
For each of the following items, write first the journal entry (if one is needed) to record
the external transaction and second the adjusting entry, if any required on June 30, the
end of
the fiscal year.

a. On May 1, borrowed $400,000 from National Bank by issuing a 10% note payable due
in three months.

b. On May 1, paid rent for six months beginning May 1 at $20,000 per month.

c. On May 2, sold season tickets for a total of $800,000 cash. The season includes 80
racing days: 30 in May 25 in June, and 25 in July.

d. On May 4, an agreement was reached with snack-bars, Inc., allowing that company to
sell refreshments at track in return for 10% of the gross receipts from refreshment sales.

e. On May 6, schedules for the 20 racing days in May and the first 10 racing days in June
were printed and paid for at a cost of $18,000.

f. On May 31, Snack-Bars, Inc. reported that the gross receipts from refreshment sales in
May had been $175,000 and that the 10% owed to Glenwood Speedway would be

Assume that the May 1 payment of $120,000 was properly recorded as prepaid rent, but
the May 31 adjusting entry was inadvertently omitted. What is the effect, if any, of this
omission on financial statements at May 31?

preparing adjusting entries at December 31:

a. Salaries earned by employees but not yet recorded or paid amount to $7,900.

who will not be billed until they are ready to check out. (Debit Rent Receivable.)

monthly rental of $3,200. The entire six months’ rent of $19,200 was collected in
advance and credited to Unearned Rental Revenue.

December 19 from Quick Rent A Car, at a daily rate of $120. No rental payment has
yet been made. (The limousine has been rented for 13 days in December.)

e. A six-month loan in the amount of $30,000 had been obtained on October 1. Interest
is to be computed at a rate of 10% per year and is payable when the loan is due. No
interest has been paid and no interest expense has been recorded.

f. Depreciation on the resort’s buildings is based on an estimated useful life of 30 years.


The original cost of the buildings was $1,755,000. Alta uses the straight-line method.

g. In December, Murree Hills Resort entered into an agreement to host the annual
symposium of tourists in April of next year. The resort expects to earn rental revenue
of at least $45,000.

h. A one-year fire insurance policy had been purchased on September 1. The premium
of $7,200 for the entire life of the policy had been paid on September 1 and recorded
as Unexpired Insurance.
