EXERCISE 14.1 (15–20 minutes)

“The product requires aging for 5 years before sale”. In other word, the operating cycle for winery industry is 5 years. Therefore, the bank loans should be classified current liability.

(c) Current liability.

(d) Probably non-current, although if operating cycle is greater than one year and current assets are used, this item would be classified as current.

(e) Current liability.

(f) Current liability.

(g) Current liability.

(h) Current liability.

As consideration for the zero-interest-bearing feature, Durdil agrees to supply the customer's inventory needs for the loan period at lower than the market price. The appropriate rate at which to impute interest is 8%.

Instructions

2019. Prepare the journal entry to record the initial transaction on January 1, 2019.

EXERCISE 14.13 (15–20 minutes)

P14.3 (LO1) (Negative Amortization) Good-Deal Auto developed a new sales gimmick to help sell its inventory of new automobiles. Because many new car buyers need financing, Good-Deal offered a low down payment and low car payments for the first year after purchase. It believes that this promotion will bring in some new buyers.

On January 1, 2019, a customer purchased a new €33,000 automobile, making a down payment of €1,000. The customer signed a note indicating that the annual rate of interest would be 8% and that quarterly payments would be made over 3 years. For the first year, Good-Deal required a €400 quarterly payment to be made on April 1, July 1, October 1, and January 1, 2020. After this one-year period, the customer was required to make regular quarterly payments that would pay off the loan as of January 1, 2022.

Instructions

1. Prepare a note amortization schedule for the first year.
2. Indicate the amount the customer owes on the contract at the end of the first year.
3. Compute the amount of the new quarterly payments.
4. Prepare a note amortization schedule for these new payments for the next 2 years.
5. What do you think of the new sales promotion used by Good-Deal?

(a)

(b) At this point, we see that the customer owes €32,990, or €990 more than at the beginning of the year.

(c) To earn 8% over the next two years the quarterly payments must be €4,503 computed as follows:

€32,990 ÷ 7.32548 (PVOA_{8, 2%}) (from Table 6-4) = €4,503

(d)

*rounded €5

(e) The new sales gimmick may bring people into the showroom the first time but will drive them away once they learn of the amount of their year 2 and year 3 payments. Many will not have budgeted for these increases, and will be facing a financial challenge because they owe more on their car than its worth. One should question the ethics of a dealer using this tactic.

P14.6 (LO2) (Entries for Zero-Interest-Bearing Note; Payable in Installments) Sabonis Cosmetics Co. purchased machinery on December 31, 2018, paying $50,000 down and agreeing to pay the balance in four equal installments of $40,000 payable each December 31.

2018. December 31, 2018.
2019. December 31, 2019.
2020. December 31, 2020.
2021. December 31, 2021.
2022. December 31, 2022.

*$103,084.02 = $132,485.20 – $29,401.18.
