Question

Included in WWC’s February 1 Accounts Receivable balance is a $1,400 account due from Kit Kat, a WWC customer. Kit Kat is having cash flow problems and cannot pay its balance at this time. WWC arranges with Kit Kat to convert the $1,400 balance to a note, and Kit Kat signs a 6-month note, at 12% annual interest. The principal and all interest will be due and payable to WWC on August 1, 2012.

WWC paid a $650 insurance premium covering the month of February. The amount paid is recorded directly as an expense.

An additional 180 units of inventory are purchased on account by WWC for $13,500 – terms 2/15, n30.

WWC paid Federal Express $360 to have the 180 units of inventory delivered overnight. Delivery occurred on 02/06.

Sales of 150 units of inventory occurred during the period of 02/07 – 02/10. The sales terms are 2/10, net 30.

The 30 units that were paid for in advance and recorded in January are delivered to the customer.

25 units of the inventory that had been sold on 2/10 are returned to WWC. The units are not damaged and can be resold. Therefore, they are returned to inventory. Assume the units returned are from the 2/05 purchase.

Paid in full the amount owed for the 2/05 purchase of inventory. WWC records purchase discounts in the current period rather than as a reduction of inventory costs.

$6,600 of rent for January and February was paid. Because all of the rent will soon expire, the February portion of the payment is charged directly to expense.

Collected $10,000 of customers’ Accounts Receivable. Of the $10,000, the discount was taken by customers on $8,000 of account balances; therefore WWC received less than $10,000.

WWC recovered $600 cash from the customer whose account had previously been written off (see 02/18).

A $950 utility bill for February arrived. It is due on March 15 and will be paid then.

Record the $2,800 employee salary that is owed but will be paid March 1.

WWC decides to use the aging method to estimate uncollectible accounts. WWC determines 8% of the ending balance is the appropriate end of February estimate of uncollectible accounts.
