On December 31, Year 4, Deal, Inc., failed to accrue the December Year 4 sales salaries that were payable on January 6, Year 5. What is the effect of the failure to accrue sales salaries on working capital and cash flows from operating activities in Deal’s Year 4 financial statements?

Deal, Inc. working capital will be overstated while there will be a nil net effect on cash flows from operating activities.

Explanation:

The working capital of an entity is the difference between the entity's current asset and current liabilities at a given time or period. The operating activities of the cash flow statement is where the net income and changes in current liabilities are considered in the cash flow statement.

As such, when a company fails to accrue for sales salaries On December 31, Year 4, and the salaries are payable on January 6, Year 5, the current liabilities of the company would be understated and as such, it's working capital will be overstated.

Also, the net income will be understated as the corresponding entry in the accrual for sales salaries is an expense. Also, the ending balance of accrued sales salaries will be understated result in a nil effect on the operating activities of the cash flow.
