a. The purchase of supplies for $10,000 have been debited | ||||||||||
to supplies expense account out of which supplies of the | ||||||||||
value of $3,000 were unused. | ||||||||||
(i)When the supplies are purchased supplies (asset) have to be | ||||||||||
debited. At the year end the supplies expense is to be debited and the asset | ||||||||||
account is to be credited taking into acount the value of supplies left in stock. | ||||||||||
(ii) At the year end the supplies expense has to be debited with the supplies | ||||||||||
consumed , which in the present case is $7,000($10,000 – $3,000) | ||||||||||
(iii) For this transaction , the asset should have been shown at $3,000 and an expense | ||||||||||
of $7,000 should have been booked. Hence there is an understatement of asset | ||||||||||

account(liability), At the year end the value of the services rendered during the year | ||||||||||
from July to December (6 moths out of 24 moths) should have been transferred to revenue account. | ||||||||||
(iii) Therefore the liability account is understated by $13,500(18,000*18/24) and the revenue account | ||||||||||
is overstated by the same amount ($18,000 – $24,000*6/24). | ||||||||||
c. The company’s fuel bill of $1,500 for December 2016 was received in January 2017. | ||||||||||
(i) When a bill for an expense is received after the end of the period, we need to make | ||||||||||
an adjustment entry for the expense by booking the expense and creating a liability. | ||||||||||
(ii) In the given instatnce, accrued expenses(liability) account should have been credited | ||||||||||
and fuel expense account should have been debited. | ||||||||||
(iii) Therefore there is an understatement of liability the extent of $1,500 and | ||||||||||
and an overstatement of income by $1,500. | ||||||||||
d. The company borrowed $100,000 at 12% interest per year on April 1, 2016 which is | ||||||||||
to be repaid on March 2017. | ||||||||||
(i) When there is a borrowing, the interest expense payable for the accountig period should be | ||||||||||
debitedand a liability account should be credited for making the payment. | ||||||||||
(ii) In this case, interest expense should be booked for 9 months(April to dEcember) for $9,000 | ||||||||||
($100,000*12%*9/12) and a liability for $9,000 should be created. | ||||||||||
(iii) Hence, there is an overstatement of income by $9,000 and an understatement of liability by $9,000. | ||||||||||

(i) When an aset is purchased , depreciation on the asset is to be recorded for the acounting period. | ||||||||||
Depreciation (expense) account should be debited and a accumulated depreciation (adjustment to asset) | ||||||||||
account is to be credited. | ||||||||||
