ACCOUNTING
ACC 225 P07-05A
You have just taken over the accounting for Choi Enterprises, whose annual accounting period ends December 31. The company’s previous accountant journalized its transactions through December 15 and posted all items that required posting as individual amounts (see the journals and ledgers in the Working Papers). The company’s transactions beginning on December 16 follow (terms for all its credit sales are 2/10, n/30):
Dec. 16 Sold merchandise on credit to Hanna Seppa, Invoice No. 916, for $7,700 (cost is $4,600).
17 Received a $1,040 credit memorandum from Funk Company for the return of merchandise received on December 15.
AND SO ON
31 Issued Check No. 626 to Jamie Inman, the company’s only sales employee, in payment of her $2,020 salary for the last half of December.
31 Issued Check No. 627 to Access Electric Company in payment of its $710 December electric bill.
31 Cash sales for the last half of the month are $29,600 (cost is $11,200). (Cash sales are recorded daily but are recorded only twice in this problem to reduce repetitive entries.)
Required
1. Record these transactions in the journals provided in the working papers.
2. Verify that amounts that should be posted as individual amounts to the general ledger accounts have been posted, including posting to the customer and creditor accounts. (Such items are immediately posted.) Foot and crossfoot the journals and make the month-end postings.
3. Prepare a December 31 trial balance and prove the accuracy of the subsidiary ledgers by preparing schedules of both accounts receivable and accounts payable.
