- Journal Entries Overnight Delivery Inc. is incorporated on February 1 and enters into the following transactions during its first month of operations: February 15: Received $8,000 cash from customer accounts. February 26: Provided $16,800 of services on account during the month. February 27: Received a $3,400 bill from the local service station for gas and oil used during February. February 28: Paid $400 for wages earned by employees for the month. February 28: Paid $3,230 for February advertising. February 28: Declared and paid $2,000 cash dividends to stockholders. Required Prepare journal entries on the books of Overnight to record the transactions entered into during February. Explain why you agree or disagree with the following: The transactions on February 28 all represent expenses for the month of February because cash was paid. The transaction on February 27 does not represent an expense in February because cash has not yet been paid.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_forwardTransaction Analysis and Financial Statements Expert Consulting Services Inc. was organized on March 1 by two former college roommates.
