Question 3 Question :
, . (TCO 1) The accounting profession follows a set of guidelines
for measurement and disclosure of financial information called
the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). (1)
Explain what the Going-concern Assumption is (10 points)
and
(2) provide an example of its application. (10 points)
Student Answer:
The going concern is one of the fundamental assumptions in
accounting on the basis of which financial statements are prepared.
Possible indications of going concern problems are high financial
risks arising from increased gearing level rendering the company
vulnerable to delays in payment of interest. A merchandising
company has a current ratio below 0.5. A creditor 1,000,000
demanded payment which the company could not make. The creditor
requested the court to liquidate the business and recover his debts
and the court grants the order. The company is no longer a going
concern.
Instructor Textbook pages 6-9. Assume that the entity will continue to
Explanation: operate long enough to use existing assets. Depreciation is an

(TCO 2) Transaction analysis results in the development of a

the accounts impacted and how to use the format account
name/debit or credit/dollar amount (10 points), and (2)
explain how the Accounting Equation is impacted. (10 points)
Student Answer: Building Debit 535,000 Cash Credit 535,000 This transaction would
only affect the asset side of the accounting equation. Buildings are
an asset account would increase. Cash is also an asset account would
decrease by the same amount. The changes would offset each other
because they are both asset accounts. The net change to the
accounting equation would be zero.
Instructor Textbook page 64. Building/Debit/$535,000 and
