A note payable was executed by Sterling Inc. to Miami Finance Company. Sterling Inc. used $768,000 of its accounts receivable as

collateral for the loan. The contract provided that Miami would advance 85% of the gross amount of the receivables. Sterling Inc. continues to collect payments for the receivables and the cash from customers is then remitted to the finance company. The cash remitted is first applied to the finance charges, with the remainder applied to principal.
During the first month, customers owing $524,800 paid cash, less sales returns and allowances of $20,480, originally recorded as a refund liability. The finance charge at the end of the first month was $4,480. During the second month, the remaining receivables were collected in full, except for $5,120 off as uncollectible. Final settlement was effected with the finance company, including payment of an additional finance charge of $1,920.

Required:
a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.
b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.
c. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections for the second month and (2) the final payment to Miami.

See all the entries below.

Explanation:

a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.

The entries will look as follows:

<u>Account Name                                    Debit ($)           Credit ($)    </u>

Cash (768,000 * 85%)                       652,800

  Note Payable                                                              652,800

<em><u>(To record the secured borrowing.)                                                    </u></em>

b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.

The entries will look as follows:

<u>Account Name                                    Debit ($)           Credit ($)      </u>

Cash                                                   504,320

Refund Liability                                    20,480

  Accounts Receivable                                                 524,800

<u><em>(To record collection on receivables for first month.)                         </em></u>

Interest Expense                                     4,480

Note Payable                                      499,840

  Cash                                                                             504,320

<u><em>(To record payment to Miami for the first month.)                               </em></u>

c. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections for the second month and (2) the final payment to Miami.

The entries will look as follows:

<u>Account Name                                    Debit ($)            Credit ($)     </u>

Cash                                                    238,080

Allowance for Doubtful Debt                  5,120

  Accounts Receivable (w.1)                                          243,200

<u><em>(To record collection on receivables for second month Interest.)     </em></u>

<u><em>(To record final payment to Miami.)                                                      </em></u>

w.1: Accounts Receivable = Amount of accounts receivable as collateral – Cash received from customer = $768,000 - $524,800 = $243,200

w.2: Cash = Loan - First payment for principal = $652,800 - $499,840 = $152,960

Annie Rasmussen, capital, as of December 31, 2019, assuming that assets decreased by $168,000 and liabilities increased by $15,0
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

c. $357,000

d. $733,000

e. $120,000

Explanation:

As we know that

Total assets = Total liabilities + Shareholder equity

The computation is shown below:

c. Updated assets would be

= $720,000 - $168,000

= $552,000

And, the updated liabilities would be

= $180,000 + $15,000

= $195,000

So, the updated capital would be

= $552,000 - $195,000

= $357,000

d. Updated assets would be

= $720,000 - $175,000

= $895,000

And, the updated liabilities would be

= $180,000 - $18,000

= $162,000

So, the updated capital would be

= $895,000 - $162,000

= $733,000

e. The opening capital would be

= Total assets - total liabilities

= $720,000 - $180,000

= $540,000

And, the ending capital would be

= Total assets - total liabilities

= $880,000 - $220,000

= $660,000

So, the gain would be

= Ending capital balance - opening capital balance

= $660,000 - $540,000

= $120,000

lianna [129]

Answer:

d. Matt's statement is positive while Jean's statement is normative

Explanation:

A positive statement can be defined as any statement that is typically based on empirical evidence and as such can be tested, proven and verified. Also, a positive statement can be amended or rejected based on evidences that are available.

On the other hand, a normative statement can be defined as any statement that can't be tested, proven or verified because it is judgmental and based on opinions.

In this scenario, Matt observes that "there is a high correlation between educational attainment and the level of income." Jean concurs and adds that "high school graduates should all proceed to college"

Hence, Matt's statement is positive because it is an observation based on empirical evidence while Jean's statement is normative because it's simply his opinion or a value judgment.

Direct labor              $3,500          $4,775
