disa [49]

Answer:

Assume the note indicates that Seneca is to pay Arctic the $33,900 due on the note on December 31, 2021. Prepare the journal entry for Arctic to record the sale on January 1, 2021.

Dr Notes receivable 33,900

    Cr Sales revenue 31,389

    Cr Discount on notes receivable 2,511

Discount on notes receivable is a contra asset account that decreases the net amount of notes receivable.

Assume the same facts as in requirement 1, and prepare the journal entry for Arctic to record collection of the payment on December 31, 2021.

Dr Cash 33,900

    Cr Notes receivable 31,389

    Cr Interest revenue 2,511

Assume instead that Seneca is to pay Arctic the $33,900 due on the note on December 31, 2022. Prepare the journal entry for Arctic to record the sale on January 1, 2021.

Dr Notes receivable 33,900

    Cr Sales revenue 29,064

    Cr Discount on notes receivable 4,836

Discount on notes receivable is a contra asset account that decreases the net amount of notes receivable.

Assume instead that Arctic does not view the time value of money component of this arrangement to be significant, and that the note indicates that Seneca is to pay Arctic the $33,900 due on the note on December 31, 2021. Prepare the journal entry for Arctic to record the sale on January 1, 2021.

Dr Notes receivable 33,900

    Cr Sales revenue 33,900

Explanation:

Non interest bearing notes must be recorded at present value, so we need to determine the present value of the payment:

Payment due December 21, 2021, PV = $33,900 / (1 + 8%) = $31,389

Payment due December 21, 2022, PV = $33,900 / (1 + 8%)² = $29,064

We use the discount on notes receivable account (contra asset account) to decrease the net value of notes receivable.

       common stock                      3,000,000 credit

       additional paid-in               24,000,000 credit

--feb 12th issued shares--

legal services expense 414,000 debit

       common stock                      46,000 credit

       additional paid-in               368,000 credit

--feb 13th shares issued for legal services--

cash                  990,000 debit

  common stock                  86,000 credit

  additional paid-in CS       688,000 credit

  preferred stock                200,000 credit

  additional paid-in PS           16,000 credit

--february 13th issuance of common and preferred shares--

equipment           3,808,000 debit

       common stock                  375,000 credit

      additional paid-in CS      3,433,000 credit

--issuance of shares in exchange of equipment--

Explanation:

Feb 12th

cash proceeds: 3,000,000 x $9 = 27,000,000

common stock: 3,000,000 x $1 =    3,000,000

additional paid-in                            24,000,000

Feb 13th

as the market value of the shares is 9 dollars we recognize this to valued the shares issued for legal services:

46,000 x 9 = 414,000

46,000 x 1  =   46,000

additional      368,000

Feb 13th

we calculate the preferred stock value based on the price of the common shares

total:                                          990,000

common shares: 89,000 x 9 = (774,000)

preferred shares:                      216,000

now we calculate the additional paid-in:

additional on common shares: 86,000 x 8 = 688,000

preferred shares: 4,000 x 50 = 200,000

additional on preferred shares:   16,000

the equipment enter the accounting at his value so we calcualte the additional paid in by the difference:

3,808,000 Equipment - 375,000 face value of shares =  3,433,000
