The following does not describe the matching principle

Business
1 answer:
Marizza181 [45]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: The correct answer is c. Expenses are reported on the income statement when cash is paid.

Explanation: Matching principle states that expenses are matched with the related revenue in the same period, that is, expenses incurred to generate related revenue are recorded during the same time interval the related revenue is recorded in order to show the true and fair position of the profitability of the company.

Based on the above definition, <u>only option C does not align with the matching principle</u><u> </u>because expenses should be recorded in the income statement when incurred and NOT when cash is paid. If it is recorded when cash is paid, it means <em>cash basis of accounting</em> is being applied.

On July 8, a fire destroyed the entire merchandise inventory on hand of Larrenaga Wholesale Corporation. The following informati
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The answer is $243,000

Explanation:

The inventory on July 8 immediately prior to the fire is the CLOSING INVENTORY.

To find this closing inventory, we need to find the gross profit first and then cost of sales.

To find gross profit:

Gross profit margin=gross profit ÷sales.

Gross profit margin is 20% or 0.2

Sales is $690,000

Therefore, gross profit is:

0.2 x $690,000

=$138,000

To find cost of sales:

Gross profit = sales - cost of sales.

Gross profit is $138,000

Sales is $690,000

Therefore, cost of sales is

$690,000 - $138,000

=$552,000.

And finally to get closing inventory:

Cost of sales = opening inventory + purchases - closing inventory.

Cost of sales = $552,000

Opening inventory = $140,000

Purchases = $655,000

Closing inventory = $140,000+$655,000-$552,000

=$243,000.
