Adam Kleen Enterprise (AKE) was initially set up as a convenient shop selling laundry related items by Adam Bollan. Despite having good results in the national-level examination and was even offered a place at a public university, he decided to pursue his ambition of becoming a successful entrepreneur. It all started with a humble beginning of selling detergents and fabric softeners. Soon, it was followed by personalized delivery to the doorsteps of his customers based on the latter schedules. This has certainly created a satisfied and growing number of newer customers and within a year, AKE has doubled the items in the shop to meet higher demands.

AKE was a given breakthrough when it successfully won a tender to provide detergents and softeners for a laundry service contractor of a local government hospital. From here, there was a no turning back for Adam as he steered AKE into other related services such as selling specially packed detergents and fabric softeners, medical disposables, and other relevant rental services. When the Covid-19 pandemic hit the country, AKE was given another business opportunity of supplying personal protective equipment (PPE) to the hospital employees. Adam Kleen Enterprise

(h) Suppliers’ invoices amounting to RM135,000 were journalized as a debit to Merchandise Inventory for RM135,000 and a credit to Account Payable for RM153,000.

PART C:

1. With the rapid expansion of AKE business, Adam is contemplating on the idea of opening one more branch at strategic location in a new housing area. The options available are either to rent the premise or to buy them. For the rental option, it will cost AKE about RM3,500 a month

for a single unit. On the other hand, the price of a single shop lot is RM450,000. The deposit required is RM50,000 for a unit while the balance will be financed through bank loan for 20 years with an estimated monthly loan instalment of RM2,800. Critically assess these two options and explain to Adam how each of the options will be impacting the operational costs of AKE.

2. Adam is undecided whether to buy a higher volume of cleaning inventories for a better price from the suppliers or keep its existing practice of buying as-when-needed basis. The former will require additional space to store the inventories while the latter is sufficient with the existing facility. Analyze and explain to Adam what benefits and shortcomings of these two options.
