Examples: Recording revenues and expenses
1. Company employees earned $420 in wages during the month of
December and will receive their paychecks in January. How much
salary expense should the company record in December?
2. The company purchased a one-year insurance policy on January 1 for
$1,200. At the end of January, what should the company record as
insurance expense?
3. On December 1 the company makes a one year loan to one of its
employees for $12,000. The loan carries an interest rate of 10%.
Should the company record any revenues or expenses in December
related to the loan?
4. At the beginning of the year a company has $200 of supplies in
storage. During the year, $600 of additional supplies are purchased.
At December 31, $250 of supplies are left. How much supplies
expense should the company record for the year?
