Question 30

Multiple Choice

Agracon Foods distributes coupons to consumers which may be presented, on or before a stated expiry date, to grocery stores for discounts on certain Agracon products.

During 2011, Argracon issued two separate series of coupons as follows:  Amounts Reimbursed as of  Issued On  Total Value  Coupon Expiry Date Dec3120X1  Jan 120X1 $250,000 Jun 30 20X1 $118,000 Oct 120X1 $360,000 Mar 3120X2 $150,000\begin{array} { | l | r | l | r | } \hline&&& \text { Amounts Reimbursed as of }\\ \text { Issued On } & \text { Total Value } & \text { Coupon Expiry Date } &\operatorname{Dec} 3120X1\\\ \\ \hline \text { Jan 120X1 } & \$ 250,000 & \text { Jun 30 20X1 } & \$ 118,000 \\\hline \text { Oct 120X1 } & \$ 360,000 & \text { Mar 3120X2 } &\$150,000\\\hline\end{array} Agracon's only journal entries for 20X1 recorded debits to coupon expense, and credits to cash of $268,000.
