Question - Mrs. L has had such a successful first few months, she is considering other opportunities to develop her business.

One opportunity is the sale of fine European mixers.

The owner of A Supply Co. has approached Mrs. L to become the exclusive distributor of these fine mixers in her state.

The current cost of a mixer is approximately $575, and Mrs. L would sell each one for $1,150.

Each appliance has a serial number and can be easily identified.

In the end, Mrs. L decides to use the perpetual inventory system. Included here are the transactions that happened during the month of January.

As of January 31, the following adjusting entry data is available:

1. A count of baking supplies reveals that none were used in January.

2. Another month's worth of depreciation needs to be recorded on the $1,200 of baking equipment bought in November. (Recall that the baking equipment has a useful life of 5 years or 60 months and no salvage value.)

3. An additional month's worth of interest on her grandmother's $2,000 loan needs to be accrued. The interest rate is 6%.

4. During the month, $110 of insurance has expired.

5. An analysis of the unearned revenue account reveals that Mrs. L has not had time to teach any of these lessons this month because she has been so busy selling mixers. As a result, there is no change to the unearned revenue account. Mrs. L hopes to complete the remaining lessons in February.

6. An inventory count of mixers at the end of January reveals that Mrs. L has three mixers remaining.

Jan. 4 Bought five deluxe mixers on account from A Supply Co. for $2,875, FOB shipping point, terms n/30.

Jan. 6 Paid $100 freight on the January 4 purchase.

Jan. 7 Returned one of the mixers to A Supply Co. because it was damaged during shipping. A Supply Co. issues Mrs. L Cookies credit for the cost of mixer plus $20 for the cost of freight that was paid on January 6 for one mixer.

Jan. 12 Three deluxe mixers are sold on account for $3,450, FOB destination, terms n/30. (Cost of goods sold is $595 per mixer.)

Jan. 14 Bought four deluxe mixers on account from A Supply Co. for $2,300, FOB shipping point, terms n/30.

Jan. 28 Collected the amounts due from customers for the January 12 transaction.
