The following unadjusted trial balance is for Brawn Demolition Company as of the end of its April 30, 2009, fiscal year. The April 30, 2008, credit balance of the owner’s capital account was $51,610, and the owner invested $30,000 cash in the company during the 2009 fiscal year.

Required

1. Prepare a 10-column work sheet for fiscal year 2009, starting with the unadjusted trial balance and including adjustments based on these additional facts.

a. The supplies available at the end of fiscal year 2009 had a cost of $3,420.

b. The cost of expired insurance for the fiscal year is $4,095.

c. Annual depreciation on equipment is $11,000.

d. The April utilities expense of $580 is not included in the unadjusted trial balance because the bill arrived after the trial balance was prepared. The $580 amount owed needs to be recorded.

e. The company’s employees have earned $1,500 of accrued wages at fiscal year-end.

f. The rent expense incurred and not yet paid or recorded at fiscal year-end is $1,400.

g. Additional property taxes of $500 have been assessed for this fiscal year but have not been paid or recorded in the accounts.

h. The long-term note payable bears interest at 12% per year. The unadjusted Interest Expense account

equals the amount paid for the first 11 months of the 2009 fiscal year. The $250 accrued

interest for April has not yet been paid or recorded. (Note that the company is required to make

a $5,000 payment toward the note payable during the 2010 fiscal year.)

2. Enter the adjusting and closing entry information in the work sheet; then journalize it.

3. Prepare the income statement and the statement of owner’s equity for the year ended April 30 and the classified balance sheet at April 30, 2009.

4. Analyze the following separate errors and describe how each would affect the 10-column work sheet.

Explain whether the error is likely to be discovered in completing the work sheet and, if not, the effect of the error on the financial statements.

a. Assume the adjustment for expiration of the insurance coverage consisted of a credit to Prepaid Insurance for $2,405 and a debit for $2,405 to Insurance Expense.

b. When the adjusted trial balance in the work sheet is completed, assume that the $2,100 Repairs Expense account balance is extended to the Debit column of the balance sheet columns.
