The service cost component of pension expense for employee services rendered in the current year amounted to 578,600 and the amortization of prior service cost was 5110,840. The company's actual funding (contributions) of the plan in 2014 amounted to $341,900. The expected return on plan assets and the actual rate were both 10%; the interest/discount (settlement) rate was 10%. Accumulated other comprehensive income (PSC) had a balance of 51,108,400 on January 1. 2014. Assume no benefits paid in 2014.
Determine the amounts of the components of pension expense that should be recognized by the company in 2014. (Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
Prepare the journal entry to record pension expense and the employer's contribution to the pension plan in 2014. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)

$153,000 |
Pension plan assets (fair value and market-related asset value) |
190,500 |
Accumulated benefit obligation |

Projected benefit obligation |
383 |
The average remaining service period for the participating employees is 10 years. All employees are expected to receive benefits under the Ilan.

The expected return on plan assets and the discount rate on the projected benefit obligation were both 10%.
The actual return on plan assets is 516,700. The company's current year's contribution to the pension plan amounted to 570,000. No benefits were paid during the year.
Determine the components of pension expense that the company would recognize in 2014.
Prepare the Journal entry to record the pension expense and the company's funding of the pension plan in 2014. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)
Compute the amount of the 2014 increase/decrease In gains or losses and the amount to be amortized in 2014 and 2015.
Indicate the pension amounts reported in the financial statement as of December 31, 2014. (Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -15,000 or parentheses e.g. (15,000).)
Question 3:
Indiana Jones Corporation enters into a 7-year lease of equipment on January 1, 2014, which requires 7 annual payments of $37,050 each, beginning January 1, 2014. In addition, Indiana Jones guarantees the lessor a residual value of $18,590 at lease-end. The equipment has a useful life of 7 years.
Prepare Indiana Jones' January 1, 2014, journal entries assuming an interest rate of 11%.
Question 4:
On January 1, 2014, Burke Corporation signed a 6-year noncancelable lease for a machine. The terms of the lease called for Burke to make annual payments of $9,781 at the beginning of each year, starting January 1, 2014. The machine has an estimated useful life of 7 years and a $4,880 unguaranteed residual value. The machine reverts back to the lessor at the end of the lease term. Burke uses the straight-line method of depreciation for all of its plant assets. Burke's incremental borrowing rate is 9%, and the lessor's implicit rate is unknown.
Compute the present value of the minimum lease payments.
Prepare all necessary journal entries for Burke for this lease through January 1, 2015.
Assume that on January 1, 2014, Kimberly-Clark Corp. signs a 10-year noncancelable lease agreement to lease a storage building from Sheffield Storage Company. The following information pertains to this lease agreement.
1. The agreement requires equal rental payments of $72,000 beginning on January 1, 2014.
2. The fair value of the bilking on January 1, 2014 is $440,000.
3. The building has an estimated economic life of 12 years, with an unguaranteed residual value of $10,000. Kimberly-Clark depredates similar buildings on the straight-tine method.
4. The lease is nonrenewable. At the termination of the lease, the building reverts to the lessor.
5. Kimberly-Clark's incremental borrowing rate is 12% per year. The lessees implicit rate is not known by Kimberly-Clark.
6. The yearly rental payment includes $2,471 of executory costs related to taxes on the property.
Prepare the journal entries on the lessee's books to reflect the signing of the lease agreement and to record the payments and expenses related to this lease for the years 2014 and 2015. Kimberly-Clark's corporate year-end is December 31.
Question 5:
The following facts pertain to a noncancelade lease agreement between Mooney Leasing Company and Rode Company, a lessee.
Inception date: |
1-May-14 |
Annual lease payment due at the beginning of each year, beginning with May 1, 2014 |
$19,687.57 |
Bargain-purchase option price at end of lease term |
$3,550.00 |
Lease terrn |
5 years |
Economic life of leased equipment |
10 years |
Lessor's cost |
$66,500.00 |
Fair value of asset at May 1, 2014 |
$81,500.00 |
Lessor's implicit rate |
12% |
Lessee's incremental borrowing rate |
12% |
The collectability of the lease payments is reasonably predictable, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the cods yet to be incurred by the lessor. The lessee assumes responsibility for all executory cods.
Prepare a lease amortization schedule for Rode Company for the 5-year lease term.
Prepare the journal entries on the lessee's books to reflect the signing of the lease agreement and to record the payments and expenses related to this lease for the years 2014 and 2015. Rode's annual accounting period ends on December 31. Reversing entries are used by Rode.

2. The bookkeeper made the following mistakes.
(a) In 2012, the ending inventory was overstated by $183,240. The ending inventories for 2013 and 2014 were correctly computed.
(b) In 2014, accrued wages in the amount of $227,240 were omitted from the balance sheet, and these expenses were not charged on the income statement.
(c) In 2014, a gain of $175,450 (net of tax) on the sale of certain plant assets was credited directly to retained earnings.
3. A major competitor has introduced a line of products that will compete directly with Almaden's primary line, now being produced in a specially designed new plant. Because of manufacturing innovations, the competitor's line will bed comparable quality but priced 50% below Almaden's line. The competitor announced its new tine on January 14, 2015. Almaden indicates that the company will meet the lower prices that are high enough to cover variable manufacturing and selling expenses, but permit recovery of only a portion of fixed costs.
