LESSON 14-1

14-4 PLANNING AND RECORDING AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS ADJUSTMENT
page 419
When you sell on account you take the risk that a customer will not pay.
Uncollectible Accounts - Accounts receivable that cannot be collected.
This risk is a cost of doing business that should be recorded as an
expense in the same accounting period the revenue is earned.
We cannot predict which exact accounts will be uncollectible - if so,
we could credit each accounts receivable account. So we estimate.
Estimating accomplishes two objectives:
Reports balance sheet amount for Accts. Receivable to reflect
the amount we expect to collect in the future.
Recognizes the expense of uncollectible accounts in the same
period in which related revenue is recorded.

12. ESTIMATING UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS EXPENSE
LESSON 14-1

ESTIMATING UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS EXPENSE
page 420
Many businesses use a percentage of total sales on account
To estimate uncollectible accounts expense. Hobby Shack
Uses 1%.
Estimated Uncollectible Accounts Expense =
Percentage ×
Total Sales on Account
$124,500.00 × 1% =
$1,245.00

4/20/2017
LESSON 14-5 Planning & Recording Depreciation Adjustments
Most businesses use two broad categories of assets.
Current Assets - Cash and other assets expected to be exchanged for
cash or consumed within one year.
Plant Assets - Assets that will be used for a number of years - computers, cash registers, furniture, etc.
May have three major types of plant assets - Equipment, Buildings, & Land
In order to match revenue with expenses used to earn the revenue, the
cost of a plant asset should be expensed over the plant asset’s useful
life. A portion of a plant asset’s cost is transferred to an expense
account in each fiscal period the asset is used to earn revenue.
Depreciation Expense - The portion of a plant assets cost that is
transferred each fiscal period of the assets useful life.

LESSON 14-1

CALCULATING DEPRECIATION EXPENSE AND BOOK VALUE
page 424
(continued on next slide)
1. Subtract the asset’s estimated salvage value from original cost.
2. Divide the estimated total depreciation expense by the years of estimated useful life.
Straight-line Method
Estimated Total Depreciation Expense =
Estimated Salvage Value –
Original Cost
$1,250.00 –
$250.00 =
$1,000.00 1
Annual Depreciation Expense =
Years of Estimated Useful Life ÷
Estimated Total Depreciation Expense
$1,000.00 ÷ 5 =
$200.00 2

Ending Book Value =
Accumulated Depreciation –
Original Cost
$1,250.00 –

$650.00

LESSON 14-6 Calculating Federal Income Tax and Completing a Work Sheet
Corporations owing more than $500 a year in federal income taxes
are required to pay estimated federal taxes each quarter.
However you do not know what you actually owe until the end of
the fiscal year.
Hobby Shack estimated $18,000 in federal income tax and made
four quarterly payments of $4,500. At the end of the fiscal period,
we can calculate what we actually owe using the work sheet.
