Prepare a schedule of accounts recelvable for Calderone Company at January 31, 2019. 2. Should the total of your accounts receivable schedule agree with the balance of the Accounts Receivable account in the general ledger at January 31, 2019?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1. Prepare a schedule of accounts receivable for Calderone Company at January 31, 2019.

Since there is not enough room here, I prepared an excel spreadsheet. Since we are not told the credit terms of the sales, I assumed all the sales were more not past due.

2. Should the total of your accounts receivable schedule agree with the balance of the Accounts Receivable account in the general ledger at January 31, 2019?

Of course, the balance of the accounts receivable control account should equal the total balance of the accounts receivable schedule. Even if some accounts are written off (bad debt), both the accounts receivable schedule and the general ledger accounts receivable should show that write off.
