Use three separate ledger accounts for revenue, namely rental commission, auction commission and advertisement placement fees. All revenues relate to the month of June.

Transactions involve cash unless specified as ‘Account’.

Record payments for rent and insurance in prepaid accounts initially.

Information relevant to complete adjusting entries can be found in the top right section of this page.

The periods to which the rent and insurance apply commence on 1 June.

Round your calculations to the nearest dollar.

Using the unique series of business transactions (data) students are required to:

Manually record the transactions through the general journal and general ledger, prepare balance day

adjustments, closing entries, financial statements, and a worksheet.

Part 2. Qualitative component (5%) – approximately 250-300 words

Based on your work in Part 1 (Excel component), explain how the accrual accounting concept provides guidance to accountants in preparing the income statement and calculating profits. In your answer, include a discussion of the role of adjusting entries in accrual accounting. To this end, you need to explain your answer using TWO examples based on your work in Part 1 (Excel component).

The qualitative component will be marked based on both i) the quality of the content and ii) the quality of written expression (e.g., spelling, grammar, and appropriate tone).

Note: In order to perform well in this task, you need to ensure that your discussion is specifically related to your work in Part 1 (rather than merely providing a general discussion).
