Question

Adria Lopez created Success Systems on October 1, 2013. The company has been successful, and its list of customers has grown. To accommodate the growth, the accounting system is modified to set up separate accounts for each customer. The following chart of accounts includes the account number used for each account and any balance as of December 31, 2013. Adria Lopez decided to add a fourth digit with a decimal point to the 106 account number that had been used for the single Accounts Receivable account. This change allows the company to continue using the existing chart of accounts.

In response to requests from customers, A. Lopez will begin selling computer software. The company will extend credit terms of 1/10, n/30, FOB shipping point, to all customers who purchase this merchandise. However, no cash discount is available on consulting fees. Additional accounts (Nos. 119, 413, 414, 415, and 502) are added to its general ledger to accommodate the company’s new merchandising activities. Also, Success Systems does not use reversing entries and, therefore, all revenue and expense accounts have zero beginning balances as of January 1, 2014. Its transactions for January through March follow:

The company paid cash to Lyn Addie for five days’ work at the rate of $245 per day. Four of the five days relate to wages payable that were accrued in the prior year.

The company purchased $6,500 of merchandise from Kansas Corp. with terms of 1/10, n/30, FOB shipping point, invoice dated January 7.

The company completed a five-day project for Alex’s Engineering Co. and billed it $5,480, which is the total price of $6,920 less the advance payment of $1,440.

The company sold merchandise with a retail value of $4,600 and a cost of $3,370 to Liu Corp., invoice dated January 13.

The company paid $790 cash for freight charges on the merchandise purchased on January 7.

The company paid Kansas Corp. for the invoice dated January 7, net of the discount.

Liu Corp. returned $400 of defective merchandise from its invoice dated January 13. The returned merchandise, which had a $310 cost, is discarded. (The policy of Success Systems is to leave the cost of defective products in cost of goods sold.)

The company received the balance due from Liu Corp., net of both the discount and the credit for the returned merchandise.

The company returned defective merchandise to Kansas Corp. and accepted a credit against future purchases. The defective merchandise invoice cost, net of the discount, was $496.

The company purchased $9,800 of merchandise from Kansas Corp. with terms of 1/10, n/30, FOB destination, invoice dated January 26.
