4. Incurred supplies expenses of $5,100. The unused supplies (i.e., inventory) balance on January 31 was $4,000. All of the January inventory purchases were on credit. (Hint: You need to record the expenses and also need to record January’s supplies purchases)

5. Paid the bank $5,000 to reduce the principal of the long-term note payable ($5,000 payment due each January), and additionally paid one month's interest in cash at a 12% per year rate on the month's beginning balance.

7. Paid utilities payable outstanding as of December 31, 2018. The $1,200 bill for January's utility consumption will be paid in February.

8. On January 31, purchased computer equipment for $1,000 cash and a $5,000 installment note payable at 10% interest due in six months (i.e., no cash was exchanged for the note). Use an "equipment" account for this transaction.

9. Declared (obligated itself to pay) a dividend of $3,000. It will be paid in February.

10. Additional information: Equipment originally cost $40,000 has an estimated salvage value of $0 and is being depreciated straight-line over six years. Record the adjustment for accumulated depreciation in the "Equipment (net)" account.

11. Paid salaries are payable outstanding as of December 31, 2018. Incurred and paid with cash salaries expense of $7,500 in January (none outstanding at the end of January).
12. Required:

1. Beginning with the 12/31/2018 balances in the balance sheet accounts, analyze each of the transactions (1 – 11) using a version of the financial statement effects template. In the end, you should have balances for the 1/31/2019 balance sheet. Set up a separate column for each balance sheet account. Put any revenues, expenses, and dividends in the "Retained Earnings" column, and in the next column to the right, put the name of the revenue, or expense account affected or "Dividends."

2. Prepare the income statement (multi-step), statement of retained earnings, and statement of cash flows for the month of January. You can construct the cash flow statement from the detail in the financial statement effects template for cash. Classify each cash flow as (1) operating, (2) investing, or (3) financing.

3. Prepare a "classified" balance sheet as of January 31, 2019. As appropriate, a "classified" balance sheet separates assets into 1) current assets, 2) investments, 3) property, plant, & equipment, 4) intangible assets, and 5) other assets, and separates liabilities into 1) current liabilities and 2) long-term liabilities.

4. Use your financial statement effects template and the financial statements created in steps “b” and “c” to take the Section 3 quiz in eLC.
