Accrued fees.

b.No. If the cash basis of accounting is used, revenues are recognized only when the cash is received. Therefore, earned but unbilled revenues would not be recognized in the accounts, and no adjusting entry would be necessary.

Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment...... 2,900

Depreciation on equipment.

Ex. 3–19

a.$325,000 ($750,000 – $425,000)

b.No. Depreciation is an allocation of the cost of the equipment to the periods benefiting from its use. It does not necessarily relate to value or loss of value.

Ex. 3–20

a.$7,535 million ($15,082 – $7,547)

b.No. Depreciation is an allocation method, not a valuation method. That is, depreciation allocates the cost of a fixed asset over its useful life. Depreciation does not attempt to measure market values, which may vary significantly from year to year.

b.2009: 7.8% ($1,487÷ $19,176)

2008: 10.1% ($1,883÷ $18,627)

c.The net income decreased during 2009 by $396 million, or 21.0%, from 2008, an unfavorable trend. The percent of net income to net sales also decreased.

Net sales...... $ 61,101 100.0%

Cost of goods sold...... (50,144) 82.1

b.Hewlett-Packard Company (HP)

Net sales...... $118,364 100.0%

Cost of goods sold...... (89,592) 75.7

Operating expenses...... (17,970) 15.2

Operating income (loss)...... $ 10,802 9.1%

c.Hewlett-Packard (HP) is more profitable than Dell. Specifically, HP’s cost of goods sold of 75.7% is significantly less (6.4%) than Dell’s cost of goods sold of 82.1%. This is partially offset by HP’s higher operating expenses of 15.2% as compared to Dell’s operating expenses of 12.7%. The net result is that HP generates an operating income of 9.1% of sales, while Dell generates operating income of 5.2% of sales. Dell must improve its operations if it is to remain competitive with HP.
