Wally’s Widget Company (WWC) incorporated near the end of 2011. Operations began in January of 2012. WWC prepares adjusting entries and financial statements at the end of each month. Balances in the accounts at the end of January are as follows:

  Cash $ 18,770 Unearned Revenue (25 units) $ 4,400   
  Accounts Receivable $ 9,800 Accounts Payable (Jan Rent) $ 1,400   
  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $ (950) Notes Payable $ 14,000   
  Inventory (30 units) $ 2,400 Contributed Capital $ 5,100   
Retained Earnings – Feb 1, 2012 $ 5,120   
WWC establishes a policy that it will sell inventory at $160 per unit.
In January, WWC received a $4,400 advance for 25 units, as reflected in Unearned Revenue.
WWC’s February 1 inventory balance consisted of 30 units at a total cost of $2,400.
WWC’s note payable accrues interest at a 12% annual rate.
WWC will use the FIFO inventory method and record COGS on a perpetual basis.
February Transactions
02/01

Included in WWC’s February 1 Accounts Receivable balance is a $1,600 account due from Kit Kat, a WWC customer. Kit Kat is having cash flow problems and cannot pay its balance at this time. WWC arranges with Kit Kat to convert the $1,600 balance to a note, and Kit Kat signs a 6-month note, at 12% annual interest. The principal and all interest will be due and payable to WWC on August 1, 2012.

02/02

WWC paid a $550 insurance premium covering the month of February. The amount paid is recorded directly as an expense.

02/05

An additional 120 units of inventory are purchased on account by WWC for $9,000 – terms 2/15, n30.

02/05

WWC paid Federal Express $240 to have the 120 units of inventory delivered overnight. Delivery occurred on 02/06.

02/10

Sales of 90 units of inventory occurred during the period of 02/07 – 02/10. The sales terms are 2/10, net 30.

02/15

The 25 units that were paid for in advance and recorded in January are delivered to the customer.

02/15

10 units of the inventory that had been sold on 2/10 are returned to WWC. The units are not damaged and can be resold. Therefore, they are returned to inventory. Assume the units returned are from the 2/05 purchase.

02/16 WWC pays the first 2 weeks wages to the employees. The total paid is $2,300.
02/17

Paid in full the amount owed for the 2/05 purchase of inventory. WWC records purchase discounts in the current period rather than as a reduction of inventory costs.

02/18 Wrote off a customer’s account in the amount of $1,050.
02/19

$2,800 of rent for January and February was paid. Because all of the rent will soon expire, the February portion of the payment is charged directly to expense.

02/19

Collected $8,100 of customers’ Accounts Receivable. Of the $8,100, the discount was taken by customers on $4,000 of account balances; therefore WWC received less than $8,100.

02/26

WWC recovered $410 cash from the customer whose account had previously been written off (see 02/18).

02/27

A $550 utility bill for February arrived. It is due on March 15 and will be paid then.

02/28 WWC declared and paid a $700 cash dividend.
Adjusting Entries:
02/29

Record the $2,300 employee salary that is owed but will be paid March 1.

02/29

02/29 Record February interest expense accrued on the note payable.
