Instructions Record the two journal entries that should be recorded by Agincourt Inc. for the sales transactions above that took place on July 1, 2007. (For multiple debit/credit entries, list in order of magnitude. Round answers to 2 decimal places. Hint: Use tables in text.)
Description Debit Credit Note Receivable 1,101,460 Land 590,000 Discount on Note Receivable 401,460 Gain on Sale 110,000
Note Receivable1,987.07 Service Revenue Discount on Note Receivable 7/1/04 Notes Receivable $400,000.00
Discount on Notes Receivable $178,836.32
Service Revenue $221,163.68 To calculate the Discount on Notes Receivable: PV of $400,000 due in 8 years at 12% = $400,000*0.40388
= $161,552
PV of $12,000 payable annually for 8 years at 12% = $12,000*4.96764
= $59,611.68 PV of the note and interest = $161,552 + $59,611.68 = $221,163.83
Discount = $400,000 - $221,163.68 = $178,836.32

(Analysis of Receivables) Presented below is information for Jones Company. 1. Beginning-of-the-year Accounts Receivable balance was $15,000.
2. Net sales (all on account) for the year were $100,000. Jones does not offer cash discounts.
3. Collections on accounts receivable during the year were $70,000.
Instructions (a) Prepare (summary) journal entries to record the items noted above. DescriptionDebitCredit Account Receivable100,000 Sales 100,000 Cash70,000 Account Receivable70,000 Accounts Receivable $100,000
Sales $100,000 Cash $70,000
Accounts Receivable $70,000
(b) Compute Jones' accounts receivable turnover ratio for the year. The company does not believe it will have any bad debts. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.) (4.44) times Accounts Receivable Turnover = Sales / Average Receivables Beginning Accounts Receivable = $15,000
Add: Sales $100,000
Total Receivables $115,000

Accounts Receivable Turnover =
(c) Use the turnover ratio computed in (b) to analyze Jones' liquidity. The turnover ratio last year was 6.0. Has Jones' ratio increased or declined? (Declined) This could be a bad indication of future liquidity, if customers continue to pay slowly. Jones may want to consider offering early payment (cash) discounts.
