Wages Expense $ 28,000.00  
Total $ 780,100.00 $ 780,100.00
 
Consider the following adjustments on January 31:
  1. January depreciation, $1,000.
  2. On January 2, rent of $15,000 was paid in advance for the first quarter of 20X8 as shown by the debit balance in the Prepaid Rent account. Adjust for January rent.
  3. Wages earned by employees during January but not paid as of January 31 were $3,750.
  4. Tony borrowed $100,000 from the bank on January 1. The explicit transaction was recorded when the busi9ness began, as shown by the credit balance in the Notes payable account. The principal and 9% interest are to be paid 1 year later (January 1, 20X9). However, an adjustment is necessary now for the interest expense of 1/12 x 0.09 x $100,000 = $750 for January.
  5. On January 1, a cash loan of $40,000 was made to a local supplier, as shown by the debit balance in the Notes Receivable account. The promissory note stated that the loan is to be repaid 1 year later (January 1, 20X9), together with interest at 12% per annum. On January 31, an adjustment is needed to recognize the interest earned on the notes receivable.
  6. On January 15, a nearby corporation paid $3,000 cash to Tony Audio Company as an advance rental for Tony's storage space and equipment to be used temporarily from January 15 to April 15 (3 months). This $3,000 is the credit balance in the Unearned Revenue account. On January 31, an adjustment is needed to recognize the rent revenue earned for half a month.
  7. Income tax expense must be accrued on January income at a rate of 50% of income before taxes.
