Arnez Company's annual accounting period ends on December 31, 2017. The following information concerns the adjusting entries to
be recorded as of that date.
a. The Office Supplies account started the year with a $4,400 balance. During 2017, the company purchased supplies for $18,172,
which was added to the Office Supplies account. The inventory of supplies available at December 31, 2017, totaled $3,872.
b. An analysis of the company's insurance policies provided the following facts.
Months of
Policy Date of Purchase Coverage Cost
A April 1, 2015 24 $11,640
B April 1, 2016 36 10,440
C August 1, 2017 12 9,240
The total premium for each policy was paid in full (for all months) at the purchase date, and the Prepa id Insurance account was debited
for the full cost. (Year-end adjusting entries for Prepaid Insurance were properly recorded in all prior years.)
c. The company has 15 employees, who earn a total of $2,950 in salaries each working day. They are paid each Monday for their work
in the five-day workweek ending on the previous Friday. Assume that December 31, 2017, is a Tuesday, and all 15 employees
worked the first two days of that week. Because New Year's Day is a paid holiday, they will be paid salaries for five full days on
Monday, January 6, 2018.
d. The company purchased a building on January 1, 2017. It cost $640,000 and is expected to have a $45,000 salvage value at the
end of its predicted 40-year life. Annual depreciation is $14,875.
e. Since the company is not large enough to occupy the entire building it owns, it rented space to a tenant at $3,400 per month,
starting on November 1, 2017. The rent was paid on time on November 1, and the amount received was credited to the Rent Earned
account. However, the tenant has not paid the December rent. The company has worked out an agreement with the tenant, who
has promised to pay both December and January rent in full on January 15. The tenant has agreed not to fall behind again.
f. On November 1, the company rented space to another tenant for $3,080 per month. The tenant paid five months' rent in advance
on that date. The payment was recorded with a credit to the Unearned Rent account.
Required:
