The AC Speed Corporation is owned and operated by Andrew Muld. The company manufactures two types of electronic speed chips for corvettes and other cool cars. Partially assembled units are purchased and then the company wires the chips to conform with their recently granted patent.

The business was founded in 1998 by Mr. Muld and now owns it's own office building, manufacturing plant, and equipment. The company was organized as a sole-proprietorship; however, in 2001 the business was converted to a corporation. The company uses the accounting year of January 1 to December 31. Andrew has been busy building the business and has not developed an extensive accounting system. The company uses the accrual basis of accounting, prepares monthly financial statements, and makes all adjusting entries (prepaids, accruals, and depreciation) at the end of each month. The company uses a perpetual inventory system and the allowance method is used to account for business receivables. The company maintains an inventory ledger, accounts receivable ledger, accounts payable ledger, and fixed asset ledger; however, these ledgers are maintained by the respective detail departments and your responsibility extends to oversight only.

Mr Muld has invited you to join the company as Director of Accounting and Finance at a good wage with full benefits. In addition, to your annual wage, medical benefits, and new office, you will get the free use of one of the companies new Corvette six speed roadsters.
