HW#3
Akimora Dairy began operations on April 1, 2010, with purchase of 250 milking cows for ¥8,500,000. It
has completed the first month of operations and has the following information for its milking cows at
the end of April 2010 (000 omitted).
Milking cows
Milk harvested during April 2010 (at net realizable value) 90,000
*Due to a very high rate of calving in the past month, there is a glut of milking cows on
the market.
Instructions

2010.
(b) Prepare the journal entry for the milk harvested by Akimora during April 2010.

Reed Mangus purchased the Hillside Vineyard at an estate auction in April 2010 for €1,250,000. The
purchase was risky because the growing season was coming to an end, the grapes must be harvested
in the next several weeks, and Reed has limited experience in carrying off a grape harvest.
At the end of the first quarter of operations, Reed is feeling pretty good about his early results.
The first harvest was a success; 500 bushels of grapes were harvested with a value of €50,000 (based
on current local commodity prices at the time of harvest). And, given the strong yield from area
vineyards during this season, the net realizable value of Reed’s vineyard has increased by €25,000 at
the end of the quarter. After storing the grapes for a short period of time, Reed was able to sell the
entire harvest for €60,000.
Instructions
(a) Prepare the journal entries for the Hillside biological asset (grape vines) for the first quarter of
operations (the beginning carrying and net realizable value is 1,250).
(b) Prepare the journal entry for the grapes harvested during the first quarter.
(c) Prepare the journal entry to record the sale of the grapes harvested in the first quarter.
(d) Determine the total effect on income for the quarter related to the Hillside biological asset and
agricultural produce.
