SOLUTIONS TO CONCEPTS FOR ANALYSIS
CA 7.1
(a) The direct write-off method overstates the trade accounts receivable on the statement of financial
position by reporting them at more than their cash realizable value. Furthermore, because the
write-off often occurs in a period after the revenues were generated, the direct write-off method

CA 7.2
(a) (1) Kimmel should account for the sales discounts at the date of sale using the net method by
recording accounts receivable and sales revenue at the amount of sales less the sales
discounts available.
(b) Trade discounts are neither recorded in the accounts nor reported in the financial statements.

(c) To account for the accounts receivable factored on August 1, 2019, Kimmel should decrease
