Deb Co. records all sales using the installment method of accounting. Installment sales contracts call for 36 equal monthly cash payments. According to the FASB’s conceptual framework, the amount of deferred gross profit relating to collections 12 months beyond the balance sheet date should be reported in the


A.Current liability section as a deferred revenue.


B.Noncurrent liability section as a deferred revenue.


C.Current asset section as a contra account.


D.Noncurrent asset section as a contra account.

Under the installment method, a credit sale is recorded by debiting a receivable and crediting inventory and deferred gross profit. Revenue is recognized only when cash is collected. Because the essence of an installment sale is an equal change in receivables and inventory, the deferred gross profit account serves to reduce the asset valuation to the unrecovered cost of goods sold. Accordingly, deferred gross profit functions as an asset valuation (contra) account. The installment receivables (and related valuation accounts) should be classified in the current assets section of the balance sheet if they are collectible within the operating cycle. All of Deb Co.’s installment contracts are for 36 months. They are apparently related to normal operations and should be classified as current.

A company has beginning net assets of $100,000 and ending net assets of $95,000. During the year, additional capital stock was sold for $8,000, and dividends of $3,000 were declared. Using the capital maintenance approach, the net income (loss) for the year is calculated as

The capital maintenance approach requires that income be determined by finding the change in equity (net assets) after adjusting for investments by, and distributions to, owners. However, this approach does not provide the detail of the transaction approach to income determination under which each component of income is measured and reported.


Change in net assets $ (5,000)


Capital stock sold (8,000)


Dividends declared 3,000


Total $(10,000)

A.To provide information about an entity’s performance through measures of earnings and its components.


B.To provide information about management’s performance.


C.To provide information to help investors, creditors, and others assess the amounts, timing, and uncertainty of prospective net cash inflows to the entity.

A.Matching.


B.Going-concern.


C.Consistency.


D.Substance over form.

Answer (A) is correct.
Matching bad debt expense with related revenues is an application of the matching principle. Matching is synonymous with associating cause and effect. It is based on a direct relationship between the expense and the revenue.

A business interest that constitutes a large part of an individual’s total assets should be presented in a personal statement of financial condition as


A.A single amount equal to the estimated current value of the business interest.


B.A separate listing of the individual assets and liabilities at cost.


C.A single amount equal to the proprietorship equity.


D.Separate line items of both total assets and total liabilities at cost.

Answer (A) is correct.
A business interest constituting a large part of an individual’s total assets must be presented in a personal statement of financial condition as a single amount equal to the estimated current value of the business interest. This investment should be disclosed separately from other investments if the entity is marketable as a going concern.

According to IFRS, when a complete set of financial statements is presented, how are other comprehensive income (OCI) and its components reported?


A.Must be reported in a separate statement or in a single statement of comprehensive income reporting all items of income and expense for the period.


B.Must be reported in a separate statement.


C.They are not required to be reported under IFRS.


D.May be reported in a single statement of comprehensive income or disclosed in a statement of changes in equity.

Answer (A) is correct.
A complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS includes (1) a statement of financial position, (2) a single statement of comprehensive income (or two statements: a separate income statement and a statement of comprehensive income that begins with profit or loss and displays the components of OCI), (3) a statement of changes in equity, (4) a statement of cash flows, (5) notes, and (6) a statement of financial position at the beginning of the earliest comparative period if an accounting policy is retrospectively applied or an item is restated or reclassified. U.S. GAAP has converged with IFRS. Thus, comprehensive income must not be reported in a statement of changes in equity under either U.S. GAAP or IFRS.



When a full set of general-purpose financial statements is presented, comprehensive income and its components


A.Must be reported net of related income tax effects in total and individually.


B.Appear as a part of discontinued operations and extraordinary items.


C.Appear only in a supplemental schedule in the notes to the financial statements.


D.Must be reported in a presentation that includes the components of other comprehensive income and their total.

Answer (D) is correct.
If an entity that reports a full set of financial statements has items of other comprehensive income (OCI), it must report comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. One continuous statement has two sections: net income and OCI. It must include (1) a total of net income with its components, (2) a total of OCI with its components, and (3) a total of comprehensive income. In separate but consecutive statements, the first statement (the income statement) must present the components of net income and total net income. The second statement (the statement of OCI) must be presented immediately after the first. It presents (1) the components of OCI, (2) the total of OCI, and (3) a total for comprehensive income. The entity may begin the second statement with net income.

A company had $100,000 in current liabilities at the end of the current year. The company refinanced this liability on a noncurrent basis subsequent to the end of the year but before the financial statements were issued. How should this liability be presented, according to IFRS and U.S. GAAP, in the company’s year-end financial statements?


A.In noncurrent liabilities under IFRS and in current liabilities under U.S. GAAP.


B.In noncurrent liabilities under IFRS and U.S. GAAP.


C.In current liabilities under IFRS and U.S. GAAP.


D.In current liabilities under IFRS and in noncurrent liabilities under U.S. GAAP.

Answer (D) is correct.
Under U.S. GAAP, a current liability is classified as noncurrent if the entity (1) intends to refinance on a noncurrent basis and (2) demonstrates an ability to complete such refinancing. The ability to refinance may be demonstrated by entering into an agreement to refinance or to reschedule payments on a long-term basis. Such an agreement may be completed after the reporting date but before the financial statements are issued. Under IFRS, a current liability may be classified as noncurrent only if the agreement to refinance or reschedule payments on a noncurrent basis is completed before the reporting date.

Hahn Co. prepared financial statements on the cash basis of accounting. The cash basis was modified so that an accrual of income taxes was reported. Are these financial statements in accordance with the modified cash basis of accounting?


A.No, because the modifications result in financial statements equivalent to those prepared under the accrual basis of accounting.


B.Yes.


C.No, because there is no substantial support for recording income taxes.


D.No, because the modifications are illogical.

Answer (B) is correct.
A comprehensive basis of accounting other than GAAP includes the cash basis. Modifications of the cash basis having substantial support, such as accruing income taxes or recording depreciation on fixed assets, may be made when preparing financial statements on the cash basis (AU 623).
