Situation 4
PEPITO COMPANY produces herbal tea and other slimming products that are sold throughout the
Philippines. While the company is experiencing a steady growth in sales, it has become noticeable
that collections of accounts receivable from customers are no longer as fast as they used to be.
Pepito Company’s products are sold on payment terms of 2/10, n/30. In the past, more than
75% of the credit customers have availed of the discount by paying within the discount period.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, there has been an increase in the number of
customers taking the full 30 days to pay. The company estimates that less than 60% of the
customers are taking advantage of the discount. Bad debt losses as a percentage of gross credit
sales have increased from the 1.5% provided in prior years to about 4% in the current year.
The deterioration of accounts receivable collections has prompted the company’s controller to
prepare the following report.
a. It is normal that some receivables will prove uncollectible. In fact, annual bad debt write-offs
had been 1.5% of total credit sales for many years. However, this rate has increased to 4%
during the current year.
b. The accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2020, is P1,500,000. The condition of this
balance in terms of age and probability of collection is presented below.
Proportion Probability
of Total Age Categories of Collection
64% 1 to 10 days 99%
18% 11 to 30 days 97.5%
8% Past due 31 to 60 days 95%
5% Past due 61 to 120 days 80%
3% Past due 121 to 180 days 65%
2% Past due over 180 days 20%
c. The allowance for bad debts had a credit balance of P27,300 on January 1, 2020.
d. The P320,000 bad debt expense provided during the year is based on the assumption that
4% of total credit sales will be uncollectible.
Questions:
17. What year-end adjustment is necessary to bring Pepito Company’s allowance for doubtful
accounts to the balance indicated by the aging analysis?
A. Bad debt expense 5,200

Situation 5
OBANDO MUSIC EMPORIUM carries a wide variety of musical instruments, sound reproduction
equipment, recorded music, and sheet music. To promote the sale of its products, Obando uses
two promotion techniques—premiums and warranties.
PREMIUMS
The premium is offered on the recorded and sheet music. Customers receive a coupon for each
P10 spent on recorded music and sheet music. Customers may exchange 200 coupons and P200
for a pocket WIFI. Obando pays P340 for each pocket WIFI and estimates that 60% of the
coupons given to customers will be redeemed. A total of 6,500 pocket WIFIs used in the premium
program were purchased during the year and there were 1,200,000 coupons redeemed in 2020.
WARRANTIES
Musical instruments and sound reproduction equipment are sold with a one-year warranty for
replacement of parts and labor. The estimated warranty cost, based on past experience, is 2%
of sales. Replacement parts and labor for warranty work totaled P1,640,000 during 2020.
Obando uses the accrual method to account for the warranty and premium costs for financial
reporting purposes. Obando’s sales for 2020 totaled P72,000,000—P54,000,000 from musical
instruments and sound reproduction equipment and P18,000,000 from recorded music and sheet
music. The balances in the accounts related to warranties and premiums on January 1, 2020,
were as shown below:
Inventory of premium pocket WIFIs P 399,500
Estimated premium claims outstanding 448,000
Estimated liability from warranties 1,360,000

1. Patents for Andres Corp.’s manufacturing process were acquired January 2, 2020, at a cost
of P2,805,000. An additional P1,041,000 was spent on December 29, 2020, to improve
machinery covered by the patents and charged to the Patents account. Depreciation on
property, plant, and equipment has been properly recorded for 2020. Andres Corp. uses the
straight-line method for all depreciation and amortization and the legal life on its patents.
2. On January 3, 2019, Andres Corp. purchased Licensing Agreement No. 1, which was believed
to have an indefinite useful life. The balance in the Licensing Agreement No. 1 account
includes its purchase price of P1,710,000 and expenses of P90,000 related to the acquisition.
On January 1, 2020, Andres Corp. purchases Licensing Agreement No. 2, which has a life
expectancy of 10 years. The balance in the Licensing Agreement No. 2 account includes its
P1,620,000 purchase price and P180,000 in acquisition expenses, but it has been reduced by
a credit of P120,000 for the advance collection of 2021 revenue from the agreement.
In late December 2019, an explosion caused a permanent reduction in the expected revenue-
producing value of Licensing Agreement No. 1, and in January 2021, a flood caused additional
damage that rendered the agreement worthless. The recoverable amount of Licensing
Agreement No. 1 was determined to be P720,000 at December 31, 2019.
3. The balance in the Goodwill account represents amount paid on December 30, 2019, for a
four-year advertising program, estimated to assist in increasing Andres Corp.’s sales.

a total estimated useful life of 12 years, which Andres Corp. as tenant made to leased
premises in January 2019; and (b) a movable assembly line equipment costing P450,000 that
was installed in the leased premises in December 2020. Andres Corp. paid its rent in full
during 2020. A 10-year non-renewable lease was signed January 3, 2019, for the leased
building that Andres used in manufacturing operations.
