We first analyze the activity in the Deferred fee revenue account,
which is shown below. This account represents the liability to
Deferred Fee Revenue

$8,000 Ending balance
The account increased by $8,000, which is explained by $8,000
of payments received in advance of revenue being recognized.

We first determine sales revenue by analyzing Accounts receivable.

In order to determine cost of goods sold, we must analyze two
accounts – Inventory and Accounts payable. Each of these
accounts explains a portion of the difference between cash

$131,000 X Inventory purchases
We do not know the amount of Accounts payable at either the
beginning or the end of the year, but we do know Accounts

The analysis indicates that knowing the change in Accounts
payable is sufficient to determine the difference between
purchases and payments.

$BI + $112,000 - Y = $BI - $39,000

E2-5. Preparing a multiple-step income statement
Hardrock Mining Co.

The “Other, net” caption as originally reported is broken down as
follows:
* “Other, net” as originally reported ($ in 000)
$54,529
Less: Restructuring charge

Plus: Discontinued operations

Investment losses
$57 ,752
Discontinued operations are presented “net of tax” as calculated
below. The “restructuring loss” is infrequent, thus it is a separately
disclosed component of operating income. Removing these two
items from “Other, net” leaves only the investment losses in the
original caption, which should be relabeled “investment losses.”
The foreign currency loss ($55,000) does not surpass any
reasonable materiality threshold (e.g., greater than 1% of net

The results of operations of an entity classified as held for sale are
to be reported in discontinued operations in the periods in which
they occur (net of tax effects). For Revsine, the loss from operations
for the discontinued segment would be $350,000 determined as
follows:
