It is the end of November and Mei-ling has been in touch with her grandmother. Her grandmother

Question:

It is the end of November and Mei-ling has been in touch with her grandmother. Her grandmother asked Mei-ling how well things went in her first month of business. Mei-ling, too, would like to know if the company has been profitable or not during November. Mei-ling realizes that in order to determine Matcha Creations' income, she must first make adjustments to the accounts.

Mei-ling puts together the following additional information.

1. A count reveals that NT$35 of baking supplies were used during November.

2. Mei-ling estimates that all of her baking equipment will have a useful life of 5 years or 60 months. (Assume Mei-ling decides to record a full month's worth of depreciation, regardless of when the equipment was obtained by the business.)

3. Mei-ling's grandmother has decided to charge interest of 6% on the note payable extended on November 16. The loan plus interest is to be repaid in 24 months. (Assume that half a month of interest accrued during November.)

4. On November 30, a friend of Mei-ling asks her to teach a class at the neighborhood school. Mei-ling agrees and teaches a group of 35 fi rst-grade students how to make holiday cookies. The next day, Mei-ling prepares an invoice for NT$300 and leaves it with the school principal. The principal says that he will pass the invoice along to the head office, and it will be paid sometime in December.

5. Mei-ling receives a utilities bill for NT$45. The bill is for utilities consumed by Mei-ling's business during November and is due December 15.
