Errors in the CPA Associates financial statements include the following:
(1)
Miscellaneous expense is incorrectly listed after utilities expense in the income statement. Miscellaneous expense should be listed as the last expense, regardless of the amount.
(2)
The operating expenses are incorrectly added. Instead of $28,000, the total should be $32,660.
(3)
Because operating expenses are incorrectly added, the net income is incorrect. It should be listed as $9,340.
(4)
The retained earnings statement should be for a period of time instead of a specific date. That is, the retained earnings statement should be reported “For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011.”
(5)
The amount of the retained earnings is incorrect. It should be $4,340.
(6)
The name of the company is missing from the balance sheet heading.
(7)
The balance sheet should be as of “March 31, 2011,” not “For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011.”
(8)
Cash, not Land, should be the first asset listed on the balance sheet.
(9)
Accounts payable is incorrectly listed as an asset on the balance sheet. Accounts payable should be listed as a liability.
(10)
Liabilities should be listed on the balance sheet ahead of stockholders’ equity.
(11)
Accounts receivable is incorrectly listed as a liability on the balance sheet. Accounts receivable should be listed as an asset.
(12)
The total assets and the total liabilities and stockholders’ equity do not add.
