Summer O’Brien is a sole trader who operates Summer’s Wilderness Packs, a wholesale business selling hiking backpacks to retail outdoor and camping shops all over Australia, and on the internet. Summer operates her business from a small, rented warehouse in Hobart. She employs a casual worker for four days a week. Summer’s bookkeeper has just retired and she asks you if you can help her to record the transactions for June. As you are studying accounting she also asks you to finish off the books for the year and prepare some financial statements for her. She is thinking of expanding and needs the statements to apply for a bank loan. The bookkeeper has been keeping the records manually but Summer is keen for you to use Excel to complete the various records each month. Ignore GST.

Other Information:

• Summer sells two products, the Summer’s Wilderness Day Pack (known as the “Day Pack”) and the Summer’s Wilderness Hiking Pack (known as the “Hiking Pack”).

• She uses a perpetual inventory system and the First-in, First-out method to assign costs to Cost of Goods Sold.

• Prepayments (prepaid expenses or unearned revenue) are treated as an Asset or Liability when paid.

• Assume transactions are on credit unless it is stated otherwise.

• All transactions are recorded on the day they occur.

• For convenience, round all figures to the nearest dollar (you can get Excel to do this for you by showing no cents).
