Depreciation of mfg equipment ($6k) goes into cost of goods manufactured, and depn of office equipment ($2k)goes into admin expenses. Total cost of gds mfd = raw mat’ls + production wages + factory overhead, i.e 18k + 15k + 6k = 39k. It cost 39k to manufacture 6k units, of which 5k were sold, so COGS = 32.5k and ending inventory = 6.5k
Net book value of mfg equip. = 34k – 6k = 28k
Nbv of office equip. = 12k – 2k = 10k
Ending cash bal. = 85k + 75k – 12k – 34k – 10k – 15k – 18k = 71k
Net Income:
Sales 75k
COGS (32.5k)
Admin. sal. (10k)
Admin. depn (2k)
NI = 30,500
This is the 1st yr, so Retained Earnings (RE) = NI = $30.5k
Total assets:
Fixed assets (at nbv) 38k (see above 28k + 10k)
Inventories 6.5k
Cash 71k
Total assets = 115,500
Net cash flow from op’g activities:
NI 30,500
Adjustment for:
Depn 8,000
Increase in inventory (6,500)
Net cash flow from op’g activities = 32,000
Net cash used in investing activities:
Purchase of fixed assets (46,000)
Net income = 30,500
Retained earnings = 30,500
Total assets = 115,500
Net cash flow from operating activities = 32,000
Net cash flow from investing activities = (46,000)
I get the following
Net income = $29,500
This is the $75K in sales less cost of good sold, salaries and depreciation on the furniture and inventory. I assumed a straight line method of depreciation since you didn’t specify.
Retained earnings = $29,500
Since this is the first year of operation and there is no previous balance to add this years net income to.
Total Assets = $114,500
Made up of $71,000 Cash, $10,000 NBV of Furniture, $28,000 NBV of Equipment and $5,500 in Inventory (1000 units @ $5.50 ea)
Cash flow from Operating activities = $29,500
Cash flow from investing = ??? Not sure if there is any. Unless you mean the $85K from the sale of stock, however, I would call that "cash flow from financing activities".
You might want to look at a few turnover ratios at the same time to see how well your assets and inventory are being used.
