Discovery Community College Chapter 3 KBC Exercise – GST and PST
INTRODUCING THE CASE STUDY: KBC DECORATING CO.
Henri Martin and Wes Corbett have decided to go into business together and have
chosen the name KBC Decorating Co. Their business will be two main divisions: a retail
department that will sell paint, wallpaper, and related supplies; and a service department that
will do painting and decorating of office buildings, apartment blocks, and private homes.
Martin and Corbett were previously in this same type of work but operated separate
businesses.
KBC Decorating Co. is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Martin and Corbett found a suitable
location from which to operate their business, renting half of a warehouse building owned by
Frank Bailes. Their space includes an office, retail space, and warehouse space.
Your job is to keep the books for KBC Decorating Co. for the first calendar year (January
to December). As you progress through these chapters, you will learn and do. Each chapter will
introduce new concepts that you will incorporate into the regular bookkeeping activities of KBC
Decorating Co. Just as in any new job, each step will be explained and practised before you are
asked to apply it to KBC's activities. You will be learning on the job.
All the supplies necessary for keeping the books for KBC Decorating Co. are found in
the package of working papers available with this textbook. All ledger accounts are
preprinted with the appropriate account names and account numbers. The KBC exercise as
shown in your textbook uses HST taxation. Since BC still uses GST and PST we want you
to practice using this tax scheme. In your student package you will find two ledger pages
that you should use to replace the corresponding sheets in the KBC Decorating Co working
papers ledger. Once reintroduces GST, GST-ITC and PST Payable. The other reintroduces
Commission Revenue. Also in your student package you find pre-printed Trial Balance
sheets that you will use with the KBC exercise instead of the ones you find in your working
papers.
Be sure that the accounts remain in the order given. This will ensure that the ledger is
organized and that the accounts are easy to locate. The chart of accounts for this ledger has been
printed at the end of the textbook for easy reference (see Appendix C).
To record the transactions for the first half of January, select a General Journal sheet from
your supplies and give it GJ1 as the page number. Continue numbering the journal pages as
you start each new page (GJ2, GJ3, etc.). All entries should be recorded in proper format with
suitable explanations. As you proceed further with this case study in later chapters, you will
be referring to this first journal page again, so keep it handy.
Remember to use the Trial Balance sheets from your student package that have GST Payable, GST‐ITC and PST Payable.

marking.)
(c) After all posting is complete; prepare a trial balance on January 15. If your trial balance
does not balance on the first attempt, use the steps for locating errors as described in this
chapter.

Discovery Community College Chapter 4 KBC - Corrections
CASE STUDY: KBC DECORATING.
In this chapter, you learned how to correct writing and recording errors, as well as how to
calculate and record GST/HST and PST. You will now apply these concepts to the entries
that have already been recorded in the General Journal; therefore, you will need to refer to
the journal entries that you recorded in Chapter 3.
KBC Decorating Co. is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Most goods and services bought
and sold in MA are subject to GST and PST. (For the purposes of this exercise we will
calculate GST at 5% and PST at 8%).
We will assume that a number of errors were recorded in January. For each of the following
transactions, record a reversing entry, then record the correct entry based on the new
information available.
20—
Jan. 2 Cheque #1 issued for rent was actually $2,500 plus GST.
2 Cheque #2 for advertising should have been $500+GST+PST
4 Cheque #3 for office supplies should have been $250+GST+PST
4 Cheque #4 for the new phone line should have been $165+GST+PST
5 The purchase of merchandise on the 5th, was recorded without GST.
Add GST to the values given.
9 Cheque #6 for the paint mixer and color dispenser should have been
$1,695 (including $75 GST)
10 GST and PST were not charged on the sales recorded on the 10th.
Add GST and PST to the amounts given.

Discovery Community College Chapter 6 KBC – Special Journals
CASE STUDY: KBC DECORATING
February Entries
In this chapter, you learned how to use special journals to record transactions and how to post from
these special journals to the ledger accounts. KBC Decorating Co. will now begin to use special
journals: Sales Journal, Purchase Journal, Cash Receipts Journal, and Cash Payments Journal. The
company also has ledger accounts for its regular customers (Accounts Receivable Ledger) and its
suppliers (Accounts Payable Ledger). These ledger accounts are located immediately after the
General Ledger accounts that you have already been using.
Set up the Sales Journal (page SJ1) with these headings: Date, Account Dr., Invoice No., Terms,
Folio, Accounts Receivable Dr., Sales Paint & Supplies Cr., Sales Wallpaper Cr., GST Payable
Cr., and PST Payable Cr.
Set up the Purchase Journal (page PJ1) with these headings: Invoice Date, Account Cr., Invoice No.,
Terms, Folio, Accounts Payable Cr., Purchases Paint & Supplies Dr., Purchases Wallpaper Dr.,
GST-ITC Dr., and Other Accounts Dr. (with subheadings of Account Dr., Folio, and Amount).
Set up a Cash Receipts Journal with these headings: Date, Account Cr., Memo, Folio, Accounts
Receivable Cr., Sales Discounts Dr., Sales Paint & Supplies Cr., Sales Wallpaper Cr., GST
Payable Cr., PST Payable Cr., General Ledger Cr., and Bank Dr.
Set up a Cash Payments Journal with these headings: Date, Account Dr., Memo,
Folio, Accounts Payable Dr., Purchase Discounts Cr., GST-ITC Dr., General Ledger
Dr., Bank Ct., and Cheque No. (All payments will be by cheque unless otherwise stated.)
Record each of the following transactions in the appropriate special journal. Be sure each
transaction is recorded as a balanced entry. Post immediately any transaction affecting a customer's
or a supplier's account.
Discovery Community College Basic Bookkeeping, 8th Edition Page 34 of 60
February 20--
1 Paid rent for February, $2,500 + GST. Issued Cheque #14 (continue numbering cheques
sequentially. All payments will be by cheque unless stated otherwise.)
2 Paid telephone bill for January service. $145+GST+PST
3 Paid electricity bill for January service $160+GST+PST
4 Sold paint and supplies to Beavis & Sons, $375 + taxes. Terms net 30 days. Sales
Invoice #1. (This is your first entry in the Sales Journal. Be sure to post immediately to
the customer’s account. This will ensure that the account is up to date)
4 Paid heating (gas) bill for January, $480 + taxes.
7 Bought from Major Office Supplies, on terms net 30, on Invoice #122 dated February 5th.
Office supplies worth $240, and warehouse supplies worth $210. Add both taxes to these
amounts. (Since our Purchase Journal does not have special columns for office and
warehouse supplies, two lines will be needed in the Other Accounts Column.) Be sure to
post immediately to this supplier’s account to keep the account up to date.
7 Cash sales this week: Paint & Supplies, $2,400 and Wallpaper $800. Add taxes as usual.
8 Received Invoice #87 dated February 5th from Reynolds Paper Co. for purchase of
wallpaper $2,600 plus GST. Terms are net 30.
10 Sold on account on Sales Invoice #2 (continue numbering sales invoice sequentially) to
Jay-Mar Co. paint and supplies $550 + taxes. Terms net 30.
12 Sold on account to S. Miller paint and supplies $300 and wallpaper $300 + taxes. Terms
net 30.
14 Cash sales this week: Paint & Supplies $2,200 and Wallpaper $1,200. Add taxes as
usual.
15 Bought insurance policy on building and contents $840 + PST (exempt from GST). Paid
by cheque (Insurance Prepaid)
20 Remitted provincial sales tax to the government. The balance in the PST Payable at the
end of January was $1,640. The Manitoba government allows the company to keep 5%
of this tax amount ($1,640 x 5% = $82). This will require a two-line entry in the Cash
Payment Journal.
On the first line, charge PST Payable for $1,640.00 in the General Ledger column.
On the second line, charge PST Commission Revenue ($82) also in the General Ledger
column. This commission, however, is to be deducted from the tax owing, so it must be
entered as above with the ().
Calculate the difference between the two amounts to find the amount to be remitted to the
government ($1,640 - $82 = $1,558) and enter this in the Bank column on the same line
as the commission.
21 Cash sales this week: Paint & Supplies $1,600 and Wallpaper $800. Add taxes as usual.
25 Bought additional wallpaper form Reynolds Paper on Invoice #98 dated February 24th for
$1,000 + GST. Terms net 30.
