- Calculation of Revenue from Cash Collection Anderson Lawn Service provides mowing, weed control, and pest management services for a flat fee of $300 per lawn per month. During November, Anderson collected $9,900 in cash from customers, which included $1,200 for lawn care provided in October. At the end of November, Anderson had not collected from 6 customers who had promised to pay in December when they returned from vacation. Required: Calculate the amount of Andersons revenue for November.arrow_forwardComparing the Income Statement and the Statement of Cash Flows On January 1, Campus Internet Connection opened for business across the street from Upper Eastern University. The company charges students a monthly fee of $20 and $1 for each hour they are online. During January, 500 students signed up for the service, and each will have until the fifth of the following month to pay the monthly fee. By the end of January, 200 students had paid the monthly fee. Student usage, payable at the time connected, was 3,000 hours during January. Assume that Campus uses the accrual basis of accounting. Required Prepare the Revenues section of Campuss income statement for the month of January. Prepare the Cash Receipts section of Campuss statement of cash flows for the month of January. In addition to the Cash account, what other account will appear on Campuss balance sheet at the end of January? What amount will be in this account?arrow_forwardEthics and Cash Flows You are the accountant for Nello Company, which manufactures specialty equipment. Nello has been in financial difficulty, so its suppliers require purchases to he paid in cash. Furthermore, Nello has long-term debt with a debt covenant that requires it to maintain a 1:1 acid-test (quick) ratio. Nellos employees work a 5-day week, Monday through Friday. On Wednesday morning during the last week of the current year, Sam (the production supervisor) comes to you and says, I dont understand it. We have this large special order from a customer that must be delivered at the end of the first week in January. Once we get the raw materials, it is going to take 5 solid days of work without overtime to produce the order. If Bob (the president) would let me order the raw materials this morning, we could have them by late today. This would give us 2 days this week and the 4 days after New Years Day (Monday) of next week to complete the order without incurring overtime costs. But Bob says we must wait until next Tuesday to order the materials. This means we will have to work double time that Wednesday through Friday to finish the order. That overtime cost is going to really increase next years factory salary expense, so our profit and operating cash flows from that order will be very low. Please talk to him. When you approach Bob about buying the raw materials this morning, he says, If we purchase those materials today, we will have to write a check. And that means our cash flow from operating activities for this year will be much lower, which our shareholders wont like. Furthermore, our quick ratio will go down from 1.01:1 to 0.90:1, so our creditors may be upset. I know our profit and operating cash flows for next year will be lower if we delay the purchase, but that seems to be the best decision. Dont you agree? Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, how would you respond to Bob?arrow_forward
