Q 2.1.3
« on: June 08, 2010, 05:32:13 pm »
2010 exam was pretty tricky...

Equipment      850
   Stock Control      850
Equipment      350
GST Clearing      35
   Sundry Creditor      385

I transferred the stock to the equipment account
Then included the installation cost as part of the cost of the asset (equipment)
Leaving the value of the equipment at 1200.

What did everyone else get?

I think it was meant to be

Equipment 350
GST Clearing 35
    Sundry Creditor - Joe or whatever           385

but credit transactions don't belong in the general journal! it had an invoice number :S
hmmm

and is the equipment non-current asset $850, or is it $850 + $350? i thought 1 off payments do not get included. oh well what's done is done.

credit purchases of non current assets are in the general journal...
only of stock are in special journals

the value should include the $350 as it's a cost incurred in getting the asset into a condition and location ready for use.

This is what i did, but merged the two equipment entries into one line and just wrote creditor - Joe's plumbing services rather then sundry creditor

Doesn't the installation become a part of the cost of the asset because it is a one-off cost made in order to get the "equipment" into a position to earn revenue?

And the whole thing does not involve any flows of cash, therefore it is all recorded in the general journal

fuck i love the final 5 minutes of an exam where i can pick up 6-7 marks from randomly attacking questions

Wtf is Sundry even doing there.

It's a creditor and when it's paid, it goes in the creditor column.

Though it's classified as a Sundry, it's classified as a creditor before that.
