32. Joan Miller owns an advertising agency. One of the adjustments her accountant made at the end of
July was $360 for unpaid wages of the secretary. Joan Miller might ask, “Why go to the trouble of
making this adjustment? Why worry about it? Doesn't everything come out in the end, when the
secretary is paid in August? Because wages expense in total is the same for the two months, isn't the
net income in total unchanged?” Give three reasons why adjusting entries can help Joan Miller assess
the performance of her business. (Net income was $1,600.)
