To determine

Compute the amount of cash in the retained earnings account at the end of 2018 and 2019.

Explanation of Solution

The retained earnings account does not have any cash balance.

d.

Expert Solution
Check Mark
To determine

Compare the income statement with the statement of cash flows, and point out the difference and similarities.

Explanation of Solution

The amount of net income from the income statement, and the amount of cash flows from operating activities of the statement of cash flows are same for 2018($13,000) and 2019 (23,500). However due to the investing and financing activities the net change in cash differs, as they do not affect the amounts of revenue and expenses directly.

e.

Expert Solution
Check Mark
To determine

Compute the balance in the retained earnings account immediately after events 2 in 2018 and in 2019 are recorded.

Answer to Problem 33P

  • The balance in the Retained Earnings account is zero immediately after the Event 2 during the year 2018.
  • The balance in the Retained Earnings account is $13,000 immediately after the Event 2 during the year 2019.

Explanation of Solution

  • For the year 2018, the revenue is recorded in the revenue account but not in the retained earnings account, as the expense, dividend, and revenue are closed at the end of accounting period.  The Retained Earnings accounts will have a balance of $13,000($35,00022,000), after closing the accounts at the end of 2018.
  • However, this Retained Earnings balance of $13,000 becomes the beginning balance of Retained Earnings account on January 1, 2019.  This is because the 2018 ending balance becomes the beginning balance of 2019. Thus, the balance of $13,000 in the retained earnings for 2019 will not change until the closing process is completed in December 2019.
