Answer:

Difference between accrual accounting and cash basis accounting:

The insurance expense for the period will be $900 under the accrual accounting basis.  But with the cash basis of accounting, the insurance expense for the period will be $1,200 being the amount of insurance paid during the period.

Explanation:

a) Data:

A. Prepaid insurance beginning $400

B. Payments for insurance during the period $1,200

C. Prepaid insurance ending $700

With accrual basis, the insurance prepaid of $400 at the beginning will be accounted as expense in the current year when the services are consumed.  The amount would be debited to the Prepaid Insurance account as a current asset.  The payments for insurance during the period of $1,200 are also added to the beginning prepayment.  Then the prepaid insurance ending of $700 is deducted (credited) to the insurance account to arrive at the insurance expense for the period.

The cash basis accounting will charge the sum of $1,200 as the insurance expense for the period with no regard for the beginning and ending balances of prepayments.

Mekhanik [1.2K]
The number of each type of book is what is unknown, so we can represent those quantities with variables. Let x = the number of hardbacks and y = the number of paperbacks. Then we know that: x + y = 65 (the total number of books sold) We also know the total cost of both editions, which is $1356. It can be written algebraically as: 28x + 12y = 1356 We now have a system of two equations, which can be solved by substitution. It would be easier to solve the first equation for either x or y and substitute that into the second equation.
