The assistant accountant of Dorman Home Builders prepared the balance sheet of the company while the Chief Accountant was ill. The balance sheet contains numerous errors. In particular, the assistant accountant knew that the balance sheet should balance, so adjusted the amount for Retained Earnings to make it balance; therefore the balance for Retained Earnings is incorrect. All other amounts are accurate but some of the accounts do not pertain to the Balance Sheet.

It is very important to record business transactions correctly. If the recording of transactions in the book of original entry is erroneous, their posting to the book of final entry will also be erroneous. The error committed will definitely be reflected in the final process of bookkeeping. Now let us recall the processes in simple bookkeeping before we proceed to the lesson this week which is the preparation of financial statements.

- What Would You Do? A new bookkeeper cant find the errors that are causing the companys month-end trial balance to be out of balance. The bookkeeper is too shy to ask for help at the office, so she takes the financial records home and asks her uncle, a retired bookkeeper, to help her locate the errors. Even with the help of her uncle, the trial balance is still out of balance, and now she is too embarrassed to return to the office and ask for help. The bookkeeper decides to show the trial balance is in balance and hope no one notices.

- (Error Analysis and Correcting Entry) You have been engaged to review the financial statements of Gottschalk Corporation. In the course of your examination, you conclude that the bookkeeper hired during the current year is not doing a good job. You notice a number of irregularities as follows.1. Year-end wages payable of $3,400 were not recorded because the bookkeeper thought that “they were immaterial.”2. Accrued vacation pay for the year of $31,100 was not recorded because the bookkeeper “never heard that you had to do it.”3. Insurance for a 12-month period purchased on November 1 of this year was charged to insurance expense in the amount of $2,640 because “the amount of the check is about the same every year.”4. Reported sales revenue for the year is $2,120,000. This includes all sales taxes collected for the year. The sales tax rate is 6%. Because the sales tax is forwarded to the state’s Department of Revenue, the Sales Tax Expense account is debited. The bookkeeper thought that…arrow_forward16.
