1.
a. This transaction does not qualify for recognition because issuing a new price list does not affect
the basic accounting equation. Boatsman must enter into a sales contract with one of its
customers and there must be performance under the contract (e.g., merchandise is delivered or a
service is performed by Boatsman or the customer makes a cash payment) before the transaction
is recorded.
b. This transaction does not qualify for recognition because the offer does not affect the basic
accounting equation. When there is performance under the contract (property or money is
exchanged), the transaction will be recorded.
c. This transaction does qualify for recognition because the receipt of cash by Boatsman and the
delivery of the deed constitute performance. Assets (cash and land) have been affected by this
transaction.
d. This transaction does not qualify for recognition because the total of the common share account
of Boatsman has not changed as a result of this transaction. This transaction does not involve
Boatsman but two other entities—two shareholders.
e. This transaction does qualify for recognition, because Boatsman has incurred an expense
(maintenance) that will lower shareholders’ equity. The actual performance of the service by the
dealer leads to recognition by Boatsman, regardless of whether Boatsman has paid the dealer for
the maintenance.
2. Item d illustrates the separate entity assumption—the transactions of a company are accounted for
separately from its owners, managers, and employees.
