Question

Prepare in journal entry form all adjusting    and correcting journal entries based on the following information. All information was provided to you as of 12/31/2018.  

m.   Accounting Creations started to lease some new retail space in 2018 and added shelving and fixtures to this leased space. Based on your review of invoices, the previous accountant capitalized the cost of fixtures but did not capitalize the shipping and installation costs of $3,514. These costs were expensed and recorded as a miscellaneous selling expense. Accounting Creations has decided to use double declining balance (DDB) depreciation for this item and to take a full year of depreciation in the year of acquisition. The leasehold improvements have a useful life of 15 years with a salvage value of $15,000.  

n.    Accounting Creations uses the FIFO Inventory Method in valuing inventory. The inventory balance of $425,000 was based on a physical count at 12/31/2018. Based on your analysis, you have noted that $12,500 of marketing games that belonged to Marketing Majors Inc. was included in the account. You also note that $7,000 of goods shipped to Accounting Creations f.o.b. destination were in transit on December 31, 2018 and included in the physical count.

o.    You note during the review of sales, that a rebate was issued for the 2018 Income Tax Game to encourage sales. 34,000 games were sold. Customers can mail in their receipt and receive a $1 rebate per game. It is estimated that 60% of customers will send in the rebate. The rebate expires on January 31, 2019. To date, 8,000 customers have sent in the rebate and $16,000 has been refunded. Without any direction, the accounting clerk debited Miscellaneous Selling Expense and credited Cash for the $16,000. The management of Accounting Creations would prefer to have this type of expense in a separate account (Rebate Expense) so they can properly analyze for future ideas.

Accounting Creations has a straight tax rate of 35%. Income tax expense is Net Income before taxes times 35%. (Hint: Prepare the Income Statement up to Net Income before Taxes and then record this adjusting journal entry.)
