  • Assume you are employed as the chief financial officer of a corporation and are responsible for preparation of the financial statements, including the adjusting process and preparation of the adjusted trial balance. The company is facing a slow year, and after your adjusting entries, the financial statements are accurately reflecting that fact. However, as you are discussing the matter with your boss, the chief executive officer (CEO), he suggests that you have the power to make further adjustments to the statements, and that you should use that power to adjust the profits and equity into a stronger position, so that investor confidence in the companys prospects will be restored. Write a short memo to the CEO, stating your intentions about what you can and/or will do to make the financial statements more appealing. Be specific about any planned adjustments that could be made, assuming that normal period-end adjustments have already been reflected accurately in the financial statements that you prepared.

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…
