Financial Accounting 4e - Solution ch04
1. No. A worksheet is not a permanent accounting record. The use of a worksheet is an optional
step in the accounting cycle.
2. The worksheet is merely a device used to make it easier to prepare adjusting entries and the
financial statements.
3. The amount shown in the adjusted trial balance column for an account equals the account
balance in the ledger after adjusting entries have been journalized and posted.
4. The net income of ¥12,000 will appear in the income statement debit column and the statement
of financial position credit column. A net loss will appear in the income statement credit column
and the statement of financial position debit column.
5. Formal financial statements are needed because the columnar data are not properly arranged
and classified for statement purposes. For example, a drawing account is listed with assets.
7. Income Summary is a temporary account that is used in the closing process. The account is
debited for expenses and credited for revenues. The difference, either net income or net loss, is
then closed to the Retained Earnings account.
8. The post-closing trial balance contains only statement of financial position accounts. Its purpose
is to prove the equality of the permanent account balances that are carried forward into the next
accounting period.
9. The accounts that will not appear in the post-closing trial balance are Depreciation Expense;
Dividends; and Service Revenue.
10. A reversing entry is the exact opposite, both in amount and in account titles, of an adjusting entry
and is made at the beginning of the new accounting period. Reversing entries are an optional
step in the accounting cycle.
11. The steps that involve journalizing are: (1) journalize the transactions, (2) journalize the adjusting
entries, and (3) journalize the closing entries.
12. The three trial balances are the: (1) trial balance, (2) adjusted trial balance, and (3) post-closing
trial balance.
13. Correcting entries differ from adjusting entries because they: (1) are not a required part of the
accounting cycle, (2) may be made at any time, and (3) may affect any combination of accounts.

Questions Chapter 4 (Continued)
*15. The operating cycle of a company is the average time that it takes to purchase inventory, sell it on
account, and then collect cash from customers.
*16. Current assets are assets that a company expects to convert to cash or use up in one year. Some
companies use a period longer than one year to classify assets and liabilities as current because they
have an operating cycle longer than one year. Companies usually list current assets in the
reverse order in which they expect to convert them into cash.
*17. Long-term investments are generally investments in shares and bonds of other companies that
are normally held for many years. Property, plant, and equipment are assets with relatively long
useful lives that a company is currently using in operating the business.
*18. (a) The equity section for a corporation is called shareholders’ equity.
(b) The two accounts and the purpose of each are: (1) Share capital is used to record invest-
ments of assets in the business by the owners (shareholders). (2) Retained earnings is used
to record net income retained in the business.
*19.. TSMC’s current liabilities at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were NT$318,239,273
and NT$212,228,594 respectively. TSMC’s current liabilities were significantly lower than its current
assets in both years.
*20. After reversing entries have been made, the balances will be Interest Payable, zero balance;
Interest Expense, a credit balance.
Because of the January 1 reversing entry that credited Salaries and Wages Expense for
€3,500, Salaries and Wages Expense will have a debit balance of €4,500 which equals the
expense for the current period.
Note that Salaries and Wages Expense will again have a debit balance of €4,500.

(b) Current assets are less than current liabilities by ¥8,860 (¥37,240 –
¥46,100). However, approximately 50% of current assets are in the form
of cash. The company’s liquidity appears to be somewhat weak, so
some caution is needed.
