Question:

Happy Trails Park was organized on April 1, 2019, by Alicia Henry. Alicia is a good manager but a poor accountant. From the trial balance prepared by a part-time bookkeeper, Alicia prepared the following income statement for the quarter that ended March 31, 2020.Happy Trails Park Income Statement For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2020 Revenues £88,000 Rent revenue Operating expense

Alicia thought that something was wrong with the statement because net income had never exceeded £20,000 in any one quarter. Knowing that you are an experienced accountant, she asks you to review the income statement and other data.

Prepaid Insurance ...........................7,500
Notes Payable ................................12,000

You then make inquiries and discover the following.
1. Rent revenue includes advanced rentals for summer occupancy £14,000.
2. There were £1,450 of supplies on hand at March 31.
3. Prepaid insurance resulted from the payment of a 1-year policy on January 1, 2020.
4. The mail on April 1, 2020, brought the following bills: advertising for week of March 24, £130; repairs made March 10, £260; and utilities, £120.
5. There are four employees, who receive wages totaling £300 per day. At March 31, 2 days’ salaries and wages have been incurred but not paid.
6. The note payable is a 3-month, 10% note dated January 1, 2020.
