258) Recovery Experts (RE) specializes in data recovery from crashed hard drives. The price
charged varies based on the extent of damage and the amount of data being recovered. RE offers a
10% discount to students and faculty at educational institutions. Consider the following
transactions during the month of June.
June 10
Luke's hard drive crashes and he sends it to RE.
June 12
After initial evaluation, RE e-mails Luke to let him know that full
data recovery will cost $1,600.
June 13
Luke informs RE that he would like them to recover the data and
that he is a student at USC, qualifying him for a 10% educational
discount and reducing the cost by $160 ($1,600 × 10%).
June 16
RE performs the work and claims to be successful in recovering all
data. RE asks Luke to pay within 30 days of today's date, offering a
5% discount for payment within 10 days.
June 19
When Luke receives the hard drive, he notices that RE did not
successfully recover all data. Approximately 25% of the data has
not been recovered and he informs RE.
June 20
RE reduces the amount Luke owes by 25%.
June 30
Luke pays the amount owed.
Required:

259) By the end of its first year of operations, Gallen Corporation has credit sales of $580,000 and
accounts receivable of $200,000. Given it's the first year of operations, Gallen's management is
unsure how much allowance for uncollectible accounts it should establish. One of the company's
competitors, which has been in the same industry for an extended period, estimates uncollectible
accounts to be 3% of ending accounts receivable, so Gallen decides to use that same amount.
However, actual write-offs in the following year were 10% of the $200,000 ($20,000). Gallen's
inexperience in the industry led to making sales to high credit risk customers.
Required:
1. Record the adjustment for uncollectible accounts at the end of the first year of operations using
the 3% estimate of accounts receivable.
2. By the end of the second year, Gallen has the benefit of hindsight to know that estimates of
uncollectible accounts in the first year were too low. By how much did Gallen underestimate
uncollectible accounts in the first year? How did this underestimation affect the reported amounts
of total assets and expenses at the end of the first year? Ignore tax effects.
3. Should Gallen prepare new financial statements for the first year of operations to show the
correct amount of uncollectible accounts? Explain.
