The following data (in millions) were taken the financial statements of Walmart Stores, Inc.
The following data (in millions) were taken the financial statements of Walmart Stores, Inc.
Recent Year Prior Year Revenue $421,849 $408,085 Operating expenses 396,307 384,083 Operating income $ 25,542 $ 24,002
a. For Walmart Stores, Inc., determine the amount of change in millions and the percent of change (round to one decimal place) from the prior year to the recent year for:
1. Revenue
2. Operating expenses
3. Operating income
b. Comment on the results of your horizontal analysis in part (a).
c. Based upon Exercise 2-23, compare and comment on the operating results of Target and Walmart for the recent year.
Answer:
a.
1. Revenue:
$13,764 million increase ($421,849 – $408,085)
3.4% increase ($13,764 ÷ $408,085)
2. Operating expenses:
$12,224 million increase ($396,307 – $384,083)
3.2% increase ($12,224 ÷ $384,083)
3. Operating expenses:
$1,540 million increase ($25,542 – $24,002)
6.4% increase ($1,540 ÷ $24,002)
b. During the recent year, revenue increased by 3.4%, while operating expenses increased by 3.2%. As a result, operating income increased by 6.4%, a favorable trend from the prior year.
c. Because of the size differences between Target and Walmart (Walmart has over 6 times the revenue), it is best to compare the two companies on the basis of percent changes. Target and Walmart increased their revenue from the prior year by approximately the same percent (3.1% for Target and 3.4% for Walmart). However, Target's operating expenses increased by only 2.4% compared to Walmart's 3.2% increase. As a result, Target's operating income increased by 12.4% compared to Walmart's 6.4% increase. Based upon this analysis, it appears that Target was better able to control its operating expenses as its revenue increased than was Walmart.

A fee of $21,000 earned and due from a client was not debited to Accounts Receivable or credited to a revenue account
Indicate which of the following errors, each considered individually, would cause the trial balance totals to be unequal:
a. A fee of $21,000 earned and due from a client was not debited to Accounts Receivable or credited to a revenue account, because the cash had not been received.
b. A receipt of $11,300 from an account receivable was journalized and posted as a debit of $11,300 to Cash and a credit of $11,300 to Fees Earned.
c. A payment of $4,950 to a creditor was posted as a debit of $4,950 to Accounts Payable and a debit of $4,950 to Cash.
d. A payment of $5,000 for equipment purchased was posted as a debit of $500 to Equipment and a credit of $500 to Cash.
e. Payment of a cash withdrawal of $19,000 was journalized and posted as a debit of $1,900 to Salary Expense and a credit of $19,000 to Cash.
Indicate which of the preceding errors would require a correcting entry.
Answer:
Inequality of trial balance totals would be caused by errors described in (c) and (e). For (c), the debit total would exceed the credit total by $9,900 ($4,950 + $4,950). For (e), the credit total would exceed the debit total by $17,100 ($19,000 – $1,900).
Errors (b), (d), and (e) would require correcting entries. Although it is not a correcting entry, the entry that was not made in (a) should also be entered in the journal.
a. A fee of $21,000 earned and due from a client was not debited to Accounts Receivable or credited to a revenue account, because the cash had not been received.
b. A receipt of $11,300 from an account receivable was journalized and posted as a debit of $11,300 to Cash and a credit of $11,300 to Fees Earned.
c. A payment of $4,950 to a creditor was posted as a debit of $4,950 to Accounts Payable and a debit of $4,950 to Cash.
d. A payment of $5,000 for equipment purchased was posted as a debit of $500 to Equipment and a credit of $500 to Cash.
e. Payment of a cash withdrawal of $19,000 was journalized and posted as a debit of $1,900 to Salary Expense and a credit of $19,000 to Cash.

a. During March, $276,500 was paid to creditors on account, and purchases on account were $261,000. Assuming the March 31 balance of Accounts Payable was $76,000, determine the account balance on March 1.
b. On July 1, the accounts receivable account balance was $49,000. During July, $525,000 was collected from customers on account. Assuming the July 31 balance was $61,500, determine the fees billed to customers on account during July.
c. On September 1, the cash account balance was $28,440. During September, cash receipts totaled $112,100 and the September 30 balance was $33,200. Determine the cash payments made during September.
Answer:
a. Accounts Payable Mar. 1 X 276,500 261,000 Mar. 31 76,000 X + $261,000 – $276,500 = $76,000 X = $76,000 + $276,500 – $261,000 X = $91,500
b. Accounts Receivable July 1 49,000 525,000 X July 31 61,500 $49,000 + X – $525,000 = $61,500 X = $61,500 + $525,000 – $49,000 X = $537,500
c. Cash Sept. 1 28,440 X 112,100 Sept. 30 33,200 $28,440 + $112,100 – X = $33,200 X = $28,440 + $112,100 – $33,200 X = $107,340

Answer:
a. Accounts Payable Mar. 1 X 276,500 261,000 Mar. 31 76,000 X + $261,000 – $276,500 = $76,000 X = $76,000 + $276,500 – $261,000 X = $91,500
b. Accounts Receivable July 1 49,000 525,000 X July 31 61,500 $49,000 + X – $525,000 = $61,500 X = $61,500 + $525,000 – $49,000 X = $537,500
c. Cash Sept. 1 28,440 X 112,100 Sept. 30 33,200 $28,440 + $112,100 – X = $33,200 X = $28,440 + $112,100 – $33,200 X = $107,340
During the month, Warwick Co. received $515,000 in cash and paid out $375,000 in cash.
During the month, Warwick Co. received $515,000 in cash and paid out $375,000 in cash.
a. Do the data indicate that Warwick Co. had net income of $140,000 during the month? Explain.
b. If the balance of the cash account is $200,000 at the end of the month, what was the cash balance at the beginning of the month?
Answer:
a. The increase of $140,000 ($515,000 – $375,000) in the cash account does not indicate net income of that amount. Net income is the net change in all assets and liabilities from operating (revenue and expense) transactions.
b. $60,000 ($200,000 – $140,000)
or
Cash X 375,000 515,000 200,000
X + $515,000 – $375,000 = $200,000 X = $200,000 – $515,000 + $375,000 X = $60,000

Lowe’s Companies Inc., a major competitor of The Home Depot in the home improvement business, operates over 1,700 stores. Lowe’s recently reported the following balance sheet data (in millions):
Year 2 Year 1
Total assets $33,699 $33,005
Total liabilities 15,587 13,936
a. Determine the total stockholders’ equity as of at the end of Years 2 and 1.
b. Determine the ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity for Year 2 and Year 1. Round to two decimal places.
c. What conclusions regarding the risk to the creditors can you draw from (b)?

Answer:
a.
Year 2: $18,112 ($33,699 – $15,587)
Year 1: $19,069 ($33,005 – $13,936)
b.
Year 2: 0.86 ($15,587 ÷ $18,112)
Year 1: 0.73 ($13,936 ÷ $19,069)
c.
The risk for creditors has increased from 0.73 in Year 1 to 0.86 in Year 2. In both years, creditors have less at stake in Lowe’s than do stockholders, since the ratio is less than 1.

We-Sell Realty, organized August 1, 2014, is owned and operated by Omar Farah
We-Sell Realty, organized August 1, 2014, is owned and operated by Omar Farah. How many errors can you find in the following statements for We-Sell Realty, prepared after its first month of operations?

Answer:
1. All financial statements should contain the name of the business in their heading. The statement of owner’s equity is incorrectly headed as “Omar Farah” rather than We-Sell Realty. The heading of the balance sheet needs the name of the business.
2. The income statement and statement of owner’s equity cover a period of time and should be labeled “For the Month Ended August 31, 2014.”
3. The year in the heading for the statement of owner’s equity should be 2014 rather than 2013.
4. The balance sheet should be labeled “August 31, 2014,” rather than “For the Month Ended August 31, 2014.”
5. In the income statement, the miscellaneous expense amount should be listed as the last expense.
6. In the income statement, the total expenses are incorrectly subtracted from the sales commissions, resulting in an incorrect net income amount. The correct net income should be $24,150. This also affects the statement of owner’s equity and the amount of Omar Farah, Capital, that appears on the balance sheet.
7. In the statement of owner’s equity, the additional investment should be added first to Omar Farah, capital, as of August 1, 2014. The net income should be presented next, followed by the amount of withdrawals, which is subtracted from the net income to yield a net increase in owner’s equity.
8. Accounts payable should be listed as a liability on the balance sheet.
9. Accounts receivable and supplies should be listed as assets on the balance sheet.
10. The balance sheet assets should equal the sum of the liabilities and owner’s equity.
Corrected financial statements appear as follows:
