demonstrate with examples from your copy of financial reports 375864

Please refer to the attached Financial Report of Harvey Norman for the following questions:

1. Demonstrate, with examples from your copy of Financial Reports (take a snapshot of it), how the parent of Harvey Norman control its Subsidiaries. Do this by providing a copy of the note on the list of subsidiaries (on page 129 139) in the body of your report (since the list is long, just provide a short section of it with the first few and last few subsidiaries and any with unusual percentage holdings) and comment on any Subsidiaries that are less than 100% owned by the Parent. In particular look at subsidiaries where less than 50% of the shares are held.

2. Compare the Issued Capital in the Balance Sheet or Statement of Changes in Equity of Harvey Norman with that of the Parent in the note on Parent Entity Disclosures by providing examples and discussing the similarities. Make sure you highlight the relevant numbers in each section and use arrows, or something similar, so the reader knows what are you trying to highlight. Consider why we would expect these amounts to be similar.

3. Refer to Harvey Norman’s note on intangibles or goodwill and demonstrate and explain whether there is evidence of the group purchasing or disposing of subsidiaries in the past two reporting periods. If possible show an acquisition analysis from the notes to the accounts . These are often under a note about acquisition of controlled entities.

while the accounting profession and regulators still struggle with determining 376087

While the accounting profession and regulators still struggle with determining a single measurement regime are whole new class of assets has developed particularly since around the beginning of this century. We are all familiar with physical assets and with most types of intangible assets but virtual assets are the latest items with which the profession needs to contend. Virtual assets arise most commonly from the virtual economy which exists in a virtual world online. Participants in the game Second Life for instance are required to purchase Linden dollars in order to undertake transactions within that world. So real money is being used to purchase virtual goods in these worlds but these goods do not cease to exist when the player ceases playing the game and Linden dollars can be exchanged for real money by selling them to another player. Virtual assets do not consist only of those we find with in online games however. Virtual assets also include electronic data stored on a computer or the Internet, such as digital photos, domain names and Internet bank accounts.There are increasing concerns about how people deal with such assets in terms of their estate planning (in other words, what happens to these items when we die?) and taxation authorities are becoming increasingly interested in the issue as well. Just to confuse things, we now have the situation where some real world companies are offering transaction within the virtual world that is, it is possible to undertake purchases and other transactions with real companies for real goods within some Internet games. The attached article provides students with a starting point but you will need to undertake research into this topic in order to be able to adequately meet the requirements outlined below. Requirements You have been approached by a large accounting firm to provide advice in relation to Virtual assets. In particular, the managers of the firm have requested that you provide a report outlining the following: • what are Virtual assets?How are they different to the commonly understood notion of intangible assets? • Do these items meet the definition criteria for assets contained in the Framework? • Do these items meet the recognition criteria for assets contained in the Framework? • Should these items be recognised on the financial statements or would disclosure in the notes be sufficient? • Is income earned in a virtual world “real”? If so, should such profits be reported? • If we are required to recognise these items on the financial statements then we need to be able to measure them. What measurement model would you recommend?

sound sensation inc is a small manufacturer of electronic music 372989

Sound Sensation Inc. is a small manufacturer of electronic musical instruments. The plant manager received the following variable factory overhead report for the period:

?

.:.

The plant manager is not pleased with the $8,202 unfavorable variable factory overhead controllable variance and has come to discuss the matter with the controller. The following discussion occurred:

Plant Manager: I just received this factory report for the latest month of operation. I’m not very pleased with these figures. Before these numbers go to headquarters, you and I will need to reach an understanding.

Controller: Go ahead, what’s the problem?

Plant Manager: What’s the problem? Well, everything. Look at the variance. It’s too large. If I understand the accounting approach being used here, you are assuming that my costs are variable to the units produced. Thus, as the production volume declines, so should these costs. Well, I don’t believe that these costs are variable at all. I think they are fixed costs. As a result, when we operate below capacity, the costs really don’t go down at all. I’m being penalized for costs I have no control over at all. I need this report to be redone to reflect this fact. If anything, the difference between actual and budget is essentially a volume variance. Listen, I know that you’re a team player. You really need to reconsider your assumptions on this one.

If you were in the controller’s position, how would you respond to the plant manager?

surgical products produces latex surgical gloves machines perfo 373006

Surgical Products produces latex surgical gloves. Machines perform the majority of the processing for 1,000 pairs of gloves per hour. Each pair of gloves requires 0.85 square foot of latex, which has a standard price of $0.80 per square foot. Machine operators are considered direct labor and are paid $15 per hour.

During one week in May, Surgical Products produced 300,000 pairs of gloves and experienced a $1,440 unfavorable material quantity variance. The company had purchased 2,500 more square feet of material than had been used in production that week. The unfavorable material price variance for the week was $5,186. A $288 unfavorable total labor variance was generated based on 315 total actual labor hours to produce the gloves. Determine the following amounts:

a. Standard quantity of material for production achieved

b. Actual quantity of material used

c. Actual quantity of material purchased

d. Actual price of material purchased

e. Standard hours for actual production

f. Labor efficiency variance

g. Labor rate variance

h. Actual labor rate

svenson technology considers direct labor cost too insignificant 373009

Svenson Technology considers direct labor cost too insignificant to separately account for, and, therefore, uses a $22.50 per machine hour predetermined conversion cost rate (of which $16 is related to fixed overhead costs). The conversion rate was established based on expected capacity of 1,008,600 machine hours. One of Svenson Technology’s products requires 4.1 machine hours to manufacture.

In September 2010, the company manufactured 21,000 units of product and used 83,000 machine hours and 840 direct labor hours. Variable and fixed conversion costs incurred for September were $551,230 and $1,330,000, respectively.

a. What is the expected capacity per month in units and machine hours?

b. Prepare a four and three variance analysis of conversion costs for September 2010.

taylor industries inc develops standard costs for all its dir 373011

Taylor Industries, Inc., develops standard costs for all its direct materials, direct labor, and overhead costs. It uses these costs to price products, cost inventories, and evaluate the performance of purchasing and production mangers. It updates the standard costs whenever costs, prices, or rate change by 3 percent or more. It also reviews and updates all standard costs each December; this practice provides current standards that are appropriate for use in valuing year end inventories on the company’s financial statement.

Jody Elgar is in charge of standard costing at Taylor Industries. On November 30, she received a memo from the chief financial officer informing her that Taylor Industries was considering purchasing another company and that she and her staff were to postpone adjusting standard costs until late February; they were instead to concentrate on analyzing the proposed purchase.

In the third week of November, prices on more than 20 of Taylor Industries’ direct materials had been reduced by 10 percent or more, and a new labor union contract had reduced several categories of labor rates. A revision of standard costs in December would have resulted in lower valuations of inventories, higher cost of goods sold because of inventory write downs, and lower net income for the year. Elgar believed that the company was facing an operating loss and that the assignment to evaluate the proposed purchase was designed primarily to keep her staff from revising and lowering standard costs. She questioned the chief financial officer about the assignment and reiterated the need for updating the standard costs, but she was again told to ignore the update and concentrate on the proposed purchase. Elgar and her staff were relieved of the evaluation assignment in early February. The purchase never materialized.

Assess Jody Elgar’s actions in this situation. Did she follow all ethical paths to solving the problem? What are the consequences of failing to adjust the standard costs?

the city of western heights has an annual budget cycle 373022

The city of Western Heights has an annual budget cycle that begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. At the beginning of each budget year, an annual budget is established for each department. The annual budget is divided by 12 months to provide a constant monthly static budget. On June 30, all unspent budgeted monies for the budget year from the various city departments must be ?oreturned?? to the General Fund. Thus, if department heads fail to use their budget by year end, they will lose it. A budget analyst prepared a chart of the difference between the monthly actual and budgeted amounts for the recent fiscal year. The chart was as follows:

the executive team at current designs has gathered to evaluate 373033

The executive team at Current Designs has gathered to evaluate the company’s operations for the last month. One of the topics on the agenda is the special order from Huegel Hollow, which was presented in BYP2 1. Recall that Current Designs had a special order to produce a batch of 20 kayaks for a client, and you were asked to determine the cost of the order and the cost per kayak.

Mike Cichanowski asked the others if the special order caused any particular problems in the production process. Dave Thill, the production manager, made the following comments: ?oSince we wanted to complete this order quickly and make a good first impression on this new customer, we had some of our most experienced type I workers run the rotomold oven and do the trimming. They were very efficient and were able to complete that part of the manufacturing process even more quickly than the regular crew. However, the finishing on these kayaks required a different technique than what we usually use, so our type II workers took a little longer than usual for that part of the process.??

Deb Welch, who is in charge of the purchasing function, said, ?oWe had to pay a little more for the polyethylene powder for this order because the customer wanted a color that we don’t usually stock. We also ordered a little extra since we wanted to make sure that we had enough to allow us to calibrate the equipment. The calibration was a little tricky, and we used all of the powder that we had purchased. Since the number of kayaks in the order was fairly small, we were able to use some rope and other parts that were left over from last year’s production in the finishing kits. We’ve seen a price increase for these components in the last year, so using the parts that we already had in inventory cut our costs for the finishing kits.??

Instructions

(a) Based on the comments above, predict whether each of the following variances will be favorable or unfavorable. If you don’t have enough information to make a prediction, use ?oNEI?? to indicate ?oNot Enough Information.??

(1) Quantity variance for polyethylene powder.

(2) Price variance for polyethylene powder.

(3) Quantity variance for finishing kits.

(4) Price variance for finishing kits.

(5) Quantity variance for type I workers.

(6) Price variance for type I workers.

(7) Quantity variance for type II workers.

(8) Price variance for type II workers.

(b) Diane Buswell examined some of the accounting records and reported that Current Designs purchased 1,200 pounds of pellets for this order at a total cost of $2,040. Twenty (20) finishing kits were assembled at a total cost of $3,240. The payroll records showed that the type I employees worked 38 hours on this project at a total cost of $570. The type II finishing employees worked 65 hours at a total cost of $796.25. A total of 20 kayaks were produced for this order.

The standards that had been developed for this model of kayak were used in BYP2 1 and are reproduced here. For each kayak: 54 pounds of polyethylene powder at $1.50 per pound

1 finishing kit (rope, seat, hardware, etc.) at $170

2 hours of type I labor from people who run the oven and trim the plastic at a standard wage rate of $15 per hour

3 hours of type II labor from people who attach the hatches and seat and other hardware at a standard wage rate of $12 per hour.

Calculate the eight variances that are listed in part (a) of this problem.

tom belford and tony sorrentino own a small business devoted 373095

Tom Belford and Tony Sorrentino own a small business devoted to kitchen and bath granite installations. Recently, building contractors have insisted on up front bid prices for a house rather than the cost plus system that Tom and Tony were used to. They worry because natural flaws in the granite make it impossible to tell in advance exactly how much granite will be used on a particular job. In addition, granite can be easily broken, meaning that Tom or Tony could ruin a slab and would need to start over with a new one. Sometimes the improperly cut pieces could be used for smaller installations, sometimes not. All their accounting is done by a local certified public accounting firm headed by Charlene Davenport. Charlene listened to their concerns and suggested that it might be time to implement tighter controls by setting up a standard costing system. Charlene reviewed the invoices pertaining to a number of Tom and Tony’s previous jobs to determine the average amount of granite and glue needed per square foot. She then updated prices on both materials to reflect current conditions. The standards she developed for one square foot of counter installed were as follows:

Granite, per square foot $50.00

Glue (10 oz. @ $0.15) 1.50

Direct labor hours:

Cutting labor (0.10 hr. @ $15) 1.50

Installation labor (0.25 hr. @ $25) 6.25

These standards assumed that one seamless counter requires one sink cut (the space into which the sink will fit) as well as cutting the counter to fit the space available. Charlene tracked the actual costs incurred by Tom and Tony for granite installation for the next six months. She found that they completed 50 jobs with an average of 32 square feet of granite installed in each one. The following information on actual amounts used and cost was gathered:

Granite purchased and used (1,640 sq. ft.) $79,048

Glue purchased and used (16,000 oz.) $ 2,560

Actual hours cutting labor 180

Actual hours installation labor 390

The actual wage rate for cutting and installation labor remained unchanged from the standard rate.

Required:

1. Calculate the materials price variances and materials usage variances for granite and for glue for the past six months.

2. Calculate the labor rate variances and labor efficiency variances for cutting labor and for installation labor for the past six months.

3. Would it be worthwhile for Charlene to establish standards for atypical jobs (e.g., those with more than one sink cut or wider than normal)?

owhat s going on in that lab asked derek warren chief 373180

?oWhat’s going on in that lab??? asked Derek Warren, chief administrator for Cottonwood Hospital, as he studied the prior month’s reports. ?oEvery month the lab teeters between a profit and a loss. Are we going to have to increase our lab fees again???

?oWe can’t,?? replied Lois Ankers, the controller. ?oWe’re getting lots of complaints about the last increase, particularly from the insurance companies and governmental health units. They’re now paying only about 80% of what we bill. I’m beginning to think the problem is on the cost side.??

To determine if lab costs are in line with other hospitals, Mr. Warren has asked you to evaluate the costs for the past month. Ms. Ankers has provided you with the following information:

a. Two basic types of tests are performed in the lab—smears and blood tests. During the past month, 2,700 smears and 900 blood tests were performed in the lab.

b. Small glass plates are used in both types of tests. During the past month, the hospital purchased 16,000 plates at a cost of $38,400. This cost is net of a 4% purchase discount. A total of 2,000 of these plates were unused at the end of the month; no plates were on hand at the beginning of the month.

c. During the past month, 1,800 hours of labor time were used in performing smears and blood tests. The cost of this labor time was $18,450.

d. The lab’s variable overhead cost last month totaled $11,700.

Cottonwood Hospital has never used standard costs. By searching industry literature, however, you have determined the following nationwide averages for hospital labs:

Plates: Three plates are required per lab test. These plates cost $2.50 each and are disposed of after the test is completed.

Labor: Each smear should require 0.3 hours to complete, and each blood test should require 0.6 hours to complete. The average cost of this lab time is $12 per hour.

Overhead: Overhead cost is based on direct labor hours. The average rate of variable overhead is $6 per hour.

Required:

1. Compute the materials price variance for the plates purchased last month, and compute a materials quantity variance for the plates used last month.

2. For labor cost in the lab:

a. Compute a labor rate variance and a labor efficiency variance.

b. In most hospitals, three fourths of the workers in the lab are certified technicians and one fourth are assistants. In an effort to reduce costs, Cottonwood Hospital employs only one half certified technicians and one half assistants. Would you recommend that this policy be continued? Explain.

3. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. Is there any relation between the variable overhead efficiency variance and the labor efficiency variance? Explain.

one of sure bet sherbet s bestselling products is raspberry sher 372893

One of Sure Bet Sherbet’s bestselling products is raspberry sherbet, which is manufactured in 10 gallon batches. Each batch requires 6 quarts of raspberries. The raspberries are sorted by hand before entering the production process and, because of imperfections, 1 quart of berries is discarded for every 4 quarts of acceptable berries. The standard direct labor sorting time to obtain 1 quart of acceptable raspberries is 3 minutes. After sorting, raspberries are blended with other ingredients; blending requires 12 minutes of direct labor time per batch. During the blending process, some sherbet is lost because it adheres to the blending vats. After blending, the sherbet is packaged in quart containers. The following cost information is relevant:

?c Raspberries are purchased for $0.80 per quart.

?c All other ingredients cost a total of $0.45 per gallon.

?c Direct labor is paid $9.00 per hour.

?c The total cost of material and labor required to package the sherbet is $0.38 per quart.

pat james the purchasing agent for a local plant of 372903

Pat James, the purchasing agent for a local plant of the Oakden Electronics Division, was considering the possible purchase of a component from a new supplier. The component’s purchase price, $0.90, compared favorably with the standard price of $1.10. Given the quantity that would be purchased, Pat knew that the favorable price variance would help to offset an unfavorable variance for another component. By offsetting the unfavorable variance, his overall performance report would be impressive and good enough to help him qualify for the annual bonus. More importantly, a good performance rating this year would help him to secure a position at division headquarters at a significant salary increase. Purchase of the part, however, presented Pat with a dilemma. Consistent with his past behavior, Pat made inquiries regarding the reliability of the new supplier and the part’s quality. Reports were basically negative. The supplier had a reputation for making the first two or three deliveries on schedule but being unreliable from then on. Worse, the part itself was of questionable quality. The number of defective units was only slightly higher than that for other suppliers, but the life of the component was 25 percent less than what normal sources provided. If the part were purchased, no problems with deliveries would surface for several months. The problem of shorter life would cause eventual customer dissatisfaction and perhaps some loss of sales, but the part would last at least 18 months after the final product began to be used. If all went well, Pat expected to be at headquarters within six months. He saw little personal risk associated with a decision to purchase the part from the new supplier. By the time any problems surfaced, they would belong to his successor. With this rationalization, Pat decided to purchase the component from the new supplier.

Required:

1. Do you agree with Pat’s decision?Why or why not? How important was Pat’s assessment of his personal risk in the decision? Should it be a factor?

2. Do you think that the use of standards and the practice of holding individuals accountable for their achievement played major roles in Pat’s decision?

3. Review the discussion on corporate ethical standards in Chapter 1. Identify the standards that might apply to Pat’s situation. Should every company adopt a set of ethical standards that apply to its employees, regardless of their specialty?

paul golding and his wife nancy established crunchy chips in 372905

Paul Golding and his wife, Nancy, established Crunchy Chips in 1938. (Nancy sold her piano to help raise capital to start the business.) Paul assumed responsibility for buying potatoes and selling chips to local grocers; Nancy assumed responsibility for production. Since Nancy was already known for her delicious thin potato chips, the business prospered. Over the past 60 years, the company has established distribution channels in 11 western states, with production facilities in Utah, New Mexico, and Colorado. In 1980, Paul Golding died, and his son, Edward, took control of the business. By 2009, the company was facing stiff competition from national snack food companies. Edward was advised that the company’s plants needed to gain better control over production costs. To assist in achieving this objective, he hired a consultant to install a standard costing system. To help the consultant in establishing the necessary standards, Edward sent her the following memo:

To: Diana Craig, Certified Management Accountant

From: Edward Golding, President, Crunchy Chips

Subject: Description and Data Relating to the Production of Our Plain Potato Chips

Date:September 28, 2009

The manufacturing process for potato chips begins when the potatoes are placed into a large vat in which they are automatically washed. After washing, the potatoes flow directly to an automatic peeler. The peeled potatoes then pass by inspectors, who manually cut out deep eyes or other blemishes. After inspection, the potatoes are automatically sliced and are dropped into the cooking oil. The frying process is closely monitored by an employee. After the chips are cooked, they pass under a salting device and then pass by more inspectors, who sort out the unacceptable finished chips (those that are discolored or too small). The chips then continue on the conveyor belt to a bagging machine that bags them in one pound bags. After bagging, the bags are placed in a box and shipped. The box holds 15 bags. The raw potato pieces (eyes and blemishes), peelings, and rejected finished chips are sold to animal feed producers for $0.16 per pound. The company uses this revenue to reduce the cost of potatoes; we would like this reflected in the price standard relating to potatoes. Crunchy Chips purchases high quality potatoes at a cost of $0.245 per pound. Each potato averages 4.25 ounces. Under efficient operating conditions, it takes four potatoes to produce one 16 ounce bag of plain chips. Although we label bags as containing 16 ounces, we actually place 16.3 ounces in each bag. We plan to continue this policy to ensure customer satisfaction. In addition to potatoes, other raw materials are the cooking oil, salt, bags, and boxes. Cooking oil costs $0.04 per ounce, and we use 3.3 ounces of oil per bag of chips. The cost of salt is so small that we add it to overhead. Bags cost $0.11 each and boxes $0.52 each. Our plant produces 8.8 million bags of chips per year. A recent engineering study revealed that we would need the following direct labor hours to produce this quantity if our plant operates at peak efficiency:

Raw potato inspection 3,200

Finished chip inspection 12,000

Frying monitor 6,300

Boxing 16,600

Machine operators 6,300

I’m not sure that we can achieve the level of efficiency advocated by the study. In my opinion, the plant is operating efficiently for the level of output indicated if the hours allowed are about 10 percent higher.

The hourly labor rates agreed upon with the union are:

Raw potato inspectors $15.20

Finished chip inspectors 10.30

Frying monitor 14.00

Boxing 11.00

Machine operators 13.00

Overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor dollars. We have found that variable overhead averages about 116 percent of our direct labor cost. Our fixed overhead is budgeted at $1,135,216 for the coming year.

Required:

1. Discuss the benefits of a standard costing system for Crunchy Chips.

2. Discuss the president’s concern about using the result of the engineering study to set the labor standards. What standard would you recommend?

3. Form a group with two or three other students. Develop a standard cost sheet for Crunchy Chips’ plain potato chips.

4. Suppose that the level of production was 8.8 million bags of potato chips for the year as planned. If 9.5 million pounds of potatoes were used, compute the materials usage variance for potatoes.

Rita Lane is the accountant for Outdoor Living, a manufacturer of outdoor furniture that is sold through specialty stores and Internet companies. Lane is responsible for reviewing the standard costs. While reviewing the standards for the coming year, two ethical issues arise.

Lane has been approached by Casey Henderson, a former colleague who worked with Lane when they were both employed by a public accounting firm. Henderson has recently started his own firm, Henderson Benchmarking Associates, which collects and sells data on industry benchmarks. He offers to provide Lane with benchmarks for the outdoor furniture industry free of charge if she will provide him with the last three years of Outdoor Living’s standard and actual costs. Henderson explains that this is how he obtains most of his firm’s benchmarking data. Lane always has a difficult time with the standard setting process and believes that the benchmark data would be very useful.

in this segment of our continuing case assume that you 372770

In this segment of our continuing case, assume that you have been using standard costing to plan and control costs at your cookie store. In a meeting with your budget team, which includes managers and employees from the Purchasing, Product Design, and Production departments, you ask all team members to describe any operating problems they encountered in the last quarter. You explain that you will use this information to analyze the causes of significant cost variances that occurred during the quarter.

For each of the following situations, identify the direct materials and/or direct labor variance (s) that could be affected, and indicate whether the variances are favorable or unfavorable:

1. The production department uses highly skilled, highly paid workers.

2. Machines were improperly adjusted.

3. Direct labor personnel worked more carefully than they had in the past to manufacture the product.

4. The Product Design Department replaced a direct material with one that was less expensive and of lower quality.

5. The Purchasing Department bought higher quality materials at a higher price.

6. A major supplier used a less expensive mode of transportation to deliver the raw materials.

7. Work was halted for 2 hours because of a power failure.

jackie iverson was furious she was about ready to fire 372778

Jackie Iverson was furious. She was about ready to fire Tom Rich, her purchasing agent. Just a month ago, she had given him a salary increase and a bonus for his performance. She had been especially pleased with his ability to meet or beat the price standards. But now, she found out that it was because of a huge purchase of raw materials. It would take months to use that inventory, and there was hardly space to store it. In the meantime, where could the other materials supplies be put that would be ordered and processed on a regular basis? Additionally, it was a lot of capital to tie up in inventory—money that could have been used to help finance the cash needs of the new product just coming on line. Her interview with Tom was frustrating. He was defensive, arguing that he thought she wanted those standards met and that the means were not that important. He also pointed out that quantity purchases were the only way to meet the price standards. Otherwise, an unfavorable variance would have been realized.

Required:

1. Why did Tom Rich purchase the large quantity of raw materials? Do you think that this behavior was the objective of the price standard? If not, what is the objective(s)?

2. Suppose that Tom is right and that the only way to meet the price standards is through the use of quantity discounts. Also, assume that using quantity discounts is not a desirable practice for this company. What would you do to solve this dilemma?

3. Should Tom be fired? Explain.

Case Study Ozi Native Clothing Background Ozi Native Clothing is a clothing manufacturer based in Melbourne which manufactures clothing and accessory items made from the hides of Australian native animals, including emus, kangaroos and wallabies. The company was established in the late 1980s at the time Australia had started to become a highly popular tourist destination and there was a growing general interest in Australia in many overseas markets. Product History The company manufactures a range of products including women’s and men’s winter coats, women’s skirts, waistcoats, handbags and purses. These products have proved to be very popular with overseas visitors. To date, Andy Scelly, the managing director of Ozi Native Clothing, has distributed these products through a limited range of tourist and souvenir shops in the Melbourne CBD, in close proximity to a number of four and five star hotels in the area. Feedback from these distribution outlets indicates that the great majority of the buyers are upper income tourists from Japan, the USA and South Korea, with a more limited number from other Asian markets. The clothing and accessories do not appear to appeal to British and other European tourists or to New Zealand tourists. Nor does it appear that Australians themselves want to wear Australian native animals. The raw materials are sourced from a variety of suppliers in Victoria, with emu farms supplying the emu skins, and with commercial shooters supplying the kangaroo and wallaby skins via an intermediary. Emu skins are relatively expensive to source, while a plentiful supply of kangaroo and wallaby skins means that supplier prices have historically been fairly low. Accordingly, Andy Scelly has priced the emu products above the other products. The overall mark up is around 50% over and above the company’s variable and fixed costs (including all overheads), and Ozi Native Clothing supplies the retailers with a recommended retail price,…

aja could tell that this opatron was not her store s 372598

Aja could tell that this ?opatron?? was not her store’s usual type. She could see he did not care about fashion, and the customers that came to her shop in the Jacksonville mall were all tuned in to the latest styles. He came up to the register and took two pairs of jeans and an expensive sweater out of a bag to return. He didn’t have a receipt. Aja looked at the garments. They weren’t even close to his size. She had not seen him before, but she knew there were shoplifters who had been stealing from her company’s stores throughout the state. They grabbed clothing from one location and returned it to another. He knew—and she knew—that her store had a loose return policy. Receipts were not required and cash was given. She knew it would be pointless to call security; there was no proof. She remained courteous and professional. Although his returns would not impact her own performance stats, she couldn’t help feeling angry. A month later when the company changed its policy, Aja was relieved.

Requirements

1. What factors does a company consider when it decides on a policy for returns?

2. How is theft of this type handled in the accounting system?

at timmons manufacturing company production workers in the pain 372622

At Timmons Manufacturing Company, production workers in the Painting Department are paid on the basis of productivity. The labor time standard for a unit of production is established through periodic time studies conducted by DeVito Management Consultants. In a time study, the actual time required to complete a specific task by a worker is observed. Allowances are then made for preparation time, rest periods, and clean up time. Don Carmen is one of several veterans in the Painting Department. Don is informed by DeVito that he will be used in the time study for the painting of a new product. The findings will be the basis for establishing the labor time standard for the next 6 months. During the test, Don deliberately slows his normal work pace in an effort to obtain a labor time standard that will be easy to meet. Because it is a new product, the DeVito representative who conducted the test is unaware that Don did not give the test his best effort.

Instructions

(a) Who was benefited and who was harmed by Don’s actions?

(b) Was Don ethical in the way he performed the time study test?

(c) What measure(s) might the company take to obtain valid data for setting the labor time standard?

cummins the newly hired controller at merced home products inc 372674

Cummins, the newly hired controller at Merced Home Products, Inc., was disturbed by what she had discovered about the standard costs at the Home Security Division. In looking over the past several years of quarterly income statements at the Home Security Division, she noticed that the first quarter profits were always poor, the second quarter profits were slightly better, the third quarter profits were again slightly better, and the fourth quarter always ended with a spectacular performance in which the Home Security Division managed to meet or exceed its target profit for the year. She also was concerned to find letters from the company’s external auditors to top management warning about an unusual use of standard costs at the Home Security Division.

When Ms. Cummins ran across these letters, she asked the assistant controller, Gary Farber, if he knew what was going on at the Home Security Division. Gary said that it was common knowledge in the company that the vice president in charge of the Home Security Division, Preston Lansing, had rigged the standards at his division in order to produce the same quarterly income pattern every year. According to company policy, variances are taken directly to the income statement as an adjustment to cost of goods sold.

Favorable variances have the effect of increasing net operating income, and unfavorable variances have the effect of decreasing net operating income. Lansing had rigged the standards so that there were always large favorable variances. Company policy was a little vague about when these variances have to be reported on the divisional income statements. While the intent was clearly to recognize variances on the income statement in the period in which they arise, nothing in the company’s accounting manuals actually explicitly required this. So for many years Lansing had followed a practice of saving up the favorable variances and using them to create a nice smooth pattern of growing profits in the first three quarters, followed by a big ?oChristmas present?? of an extremely good fourth quarter. (Financial reporting regulations forbid carrying variances forward from one year to the next on the annual audited financial statements, so all of the variances must appear on the divisional income statement by the end of the year)

Ms. Cummins was concerned about these revelations and attempted to bring up the subject with the president of Merced Home Products but was told that ?owe all know what Lansing’s doing. But as long as he continues to turn in such good reports, don’t bother him.?? When Ms. Cummins asked if the board of directors was aware of the situation, the president somewhat testily replied. ?oOf course they are aware:’

Required:

1. How did Preston Lansing probably ?orig?? the standard costs—are the standards set too high or too low? Explain.

2. Should Preston Lansing be permitted to continue his practice of managing reported profits?

3. What should Stacy Cummins do in this situation?

danson company is a chemical manufacturer that supplies various 372680

Danson Company is a chemical manufacturer that supplies various products to industrial users. The company plans to introduce a new chemical solution, called Nysap, for which it needs to develop a standard product cost. The following information is available on the production of Nysap:

(a) Nysap is made by combining a chemical compound (nyclyn) and a solution (salex), and boiling the mixture. A 20% loss in volume occurs for both the salex and the nyclyn during boiling. After boiling, the mixture consists of 9.6 liters of salex and 12 kilograms of nyclyn per 10 liter batch of Nysap.

(b) After the boiling process is complete, the solution is cooled slightly before 5 kilograms of protect are added per 10 liter batch of Nysap. The addition of the protect does not affect the total liquid volume. The resulting solution is then bottled in 10 liter containers.

(c) The finished product is highly unstable, and one 10 liter batch out of five is rejected at final inspection. Rejected batches have no commercial value and are thrown out.

(d) It takes a worker 35 minutes to process one 10 liter batch of Nysap. Employees work eight hour day, including one hour per day for rest breaks and cleanup.

Required:

1. Determine the standard quantity for each of the raw materials needed to produce an acceptable 10 liter batch of Nysap.

2. Determine the standard labor time allowed to produce an acceptable 10 liter batch of Nysap.

deer creek ski resort was for many years a small 372686

Deer Creek ski resort was for many years a small, family owned resort serving day skiers from nearby towns. Deer Creek was recently acquired by Mountain Associates, a major ski resort operator with destination resorts in several western states. The new owners have plans to upgrade the resort into a destination resort for vacationers staying for a week or more. As part of this plan, the new owners would like to make major improvements in the Lynx Lair Lodge, the resort’s on the hill fast food restaurant. The menu at the Lodge is very limited—hamburgers, hot dogs, chili, tuna fish sandwiches, French fries, and packaged snacks. The previous owners of the resort had felt no urgency to upgrade the food service at the Lodge since there is little competition. If skiers want lunch on the mountain, the only alternatives are the Lynx Lair Lodge or a brown bag lunch brought from home.

As part of the deal when acquiring Deer Creek, Mountain Associates agreed to retain all of the current employees of the resort. The manager of the Lodge, while hardworking and enthusiastic, has very little experience in the restaurant business. The manager is responsible for selecting the menu, finding and training employees, and overseeing daily operations. The kitchen staff prepares food and washes dishes. The dining room staff takes orders, serves as cashiers, and cleans the dining room area.

Shortly after taking over Deer Creek, management of Mountain Associates held a day long meeting with all of the employees of the Lynx Lair Lodge to discuss the future of the ski resort and management’s plans for the Lodge. At the end of this meeting, top management and Lodge employees created a balanced scorecard for the Lodge that would help guide operations for the coming ski season.

Almost everyone who participated in the meeting seemed to be enthusiastic about the scorecard and management’s plans for the Lodge.

The following performance measures were included on the balanced scorecard for the Lynx Lair Lodge:

?c Customer satisfaction with service, as measured by customer surveys.

?c Total Lynx Lair Lodge profit.

?c Dining area cleanliness, as rated by a representative from Mountain Associates management.

?c Average time to prepare an order.

?c Customer satisfaction with menu choices, as measured by surveys.

?c Average time to take an order.

?c Percentage of kitchen staff completing institutional cooking course at the local community college.

?c Sales.

?c Percentage of dining room staff completing hospitality course at the local community college.

?c Number of menu items.

Mountain Associates will pay for the costs of staff attending courses at the local community college.

Required:

1. Using the above performance measures, construct a balanced scorecard for the Lynx Lair Lodge. Use Exhibit 10–12 as a guide. Use arrows to show causal links and indicate with a + or – whether the performance measure should increase or decrease.

2. What hypotheses are built into the balanced scorecard for the Lynx Lair Lodge? Which of these hypotheses do you believe are most questionable? Why?

3. How will management know if one of the hypotheses underlying the balanced scorecard is false?

advanced pharmaceuticals inc is a wholesale distributor 372452

Advanced Pharmaceuticals, Inc., is a wholesale distributor of prescription drugs to independent retail and hospital based pharmacies. Management believes that top notch customer representatives are the key factor in determining whether the company will be successful in the future. Customer representatives serve as the company’s liaison with customers—helping pharmacies monitor their stocks, delivering drugs when customer stocks run low, and providing up to date information on drugs from many different companies. Customer representatives must be ultra reliable and are highly trained. Good customer representatives are hard to come by and arc not easily replaced.

Customer representatives routinely record the amount of time they spend serving each pharmacy. This time includes travel time to and from the company’s central warehouse as well as time spent replenishing stocks, dealing with complaints, answering questions about drugs, informing pharmacists of the latest developments and newest products, reviewing bills, explaining procedures, and so on. Some pharmacies require more hand holding and attention than others and consequently they consume more of the representatives’ time.

Recently, customer representatives have made more frequent complaints that it is impossible to do their jobs without working well beyond normal working hours. This has led to an alarming increase in the number of customer representatives quitting for jobs in other organizations. As a consequence, management is considering dropping some customers to reduce the workload on customer representatives. Data concerning a representative sample of the company’s customers appears below:



Customer service costs include all of the costs—other than the costs of the drugs themselves that could be avoided by dropping the customer. These costs include the hourly wages of the customer representatives, their sales commissions, the mileage related costs of the customer representatives’ company provided vehicles, and so on.

Required:

1.Rank the four customers in terms of their profitability.

2.Customer representatives are currently paid $25 per hour plus a commission of 1% of sales revenues. If these four pharmacies are indeed representative of the company’s customers, could the company afford to pay its customer representatives more in order to retainthem?

part b of integrative case 4 1 compares the profitability of 372486

Part B of Integrative Case 4.1 compares the profitability of Starbucks with Panera Bread Company. Although Starbucks and Panera Bread Company are not direct competitors in terms of the principal food products offered, they compete in the sense of offering a relaxed cafA? experience. Whereas the products of Starbucks center on coffee and related beverages, Panera Bread Company emphasizes freshly baked bread and pastries. Panera Bread Company also sells sandwiches, soups, and similar lunch and light dinner products that build on their bread offerings, as well as coffee and other beverages. The average size of a Panera Bread Company retail outlet is typically larger than that of Starbucks. Both Starbucks and Panera Bread Company own some of their retail stores and franchise or license rights to use their names and products to other parties that own and operate other retail stores. Panera Bread Company prepares fresh dough daily in various regional facilities to use in company owned stores and to sell to franchisees. Unlike Starbucks, it has not expanded beyond the United States. Exhibit 4.46 presents profitability ratios for Panera Bread Company for 2006–2008, and Exhibit 4.47 presents segment profitability and other data. The format of Exhibit 4.46 is similar to that of Exhibit 4.44. However, due to less detailed disclosures by Panera, Exhibit 4.47 does not contain specific cost structures for Panera’s operating segments, similar to what was available from Starbucks and presented in Exhibit 4.45. The proportions of general and administrative expenses not allocated to divisions for Panera Bread Company are similar to the corresponding percentages for Starbucks (suggesting they are not material enough to specifically factor into the analysis).

Required

a. Panera’s ROA has typically been below that of Starbucks prior to 2008. What are the likely reasons for the relative levels of ROA between Panera and Starbucks? Analyze the data to the maximum depth permitted by the information given and speculate on economic explanations for what the analysis indicates.

b. Panera’s ROCE also has typically been below that of Starbucks, but by a large margin. Why?

Careful analysis of the company’s existing products has revealed that the opportunity cost of order filling time is $2.70 per minute.

The company is considering introducing a new product, praline cappuccino, to be made with pecan extract and molasses. The variable cost of the standard size praline cappuccino would be

$0.30 and the time required to fill an order for the beverage would be 40 seconds.

residence suites operates a regional hotel chain each hotel is 372561

Residence Suites operates a regional hotel chain. Each hotel is operated by a manager and an assistant manager/controller. Many of the staff who run the front desk, clean the rooms, and prepare the breakfast buffet work part time or have a second job so turnover is high.

Assistant manager/controller Terry Dunn asked the new bookkeeper to help prepare the hotel’s master budget. The master budget is prepared once a year and is submitted to company headquarters for approval. Once approved, the master budget is used to evaluate the hotel’s performance. These performance evaluations affect hotel managers’ bonuses and they also affect company decisions on which hotels deserve extra funds for capital improvements.

When the budget was almost complete, Dunn asked the bookkeeper to increase amounts budgeted for labor and supplies by 15%. When asked why, Dunn responded that hotel manager Clay Murry told her to do this when she began working at the hotel. Murry explained that this budgetary cushion gave him flexibility in running the hotel. For example, because company headquarters tightly controls capital improvement funds, Murry can use the extra money budgeted for labor and supplies to replace broken televisions or pay ?obonuses?? to keep valued employees. Dunn initially accepted this explanation because she had observed similar behavior at the hotel where she worked previously.

Requirements

Put yourself in Dunn’s position. In deciding how to deal with the situation, answer the following questions:

1. What is the ethical issue?

2. What are my options?

3. What are the possible consequences?

4. What should I do?

this problem continues the draper consulting situation p21 35 372572

This problem continues the Draper Consulting, Inc., situation from P21 35 of Chapter 21. Assume Draper Consulting began January with $29,000 cash. Management forecasts that collections from credit customers will be $49,000 in January and $51,500 in February. Projected cash payments include equipment purchases ($17,000 in January and $40,000 in February) and operating expenses ($6,000 each month). Draper’s bank requires a $20,000 minimum balance in the store’s checking account. At the end of any month when the account balance dips below $20,000, the bank automatically extends credit to the store in multiples of $5,000. Draper borrows as little as possible and pays back loans each month in $1,000 increments, plus 5% interest on the entire unpaid principal. The first payment occurs one month after the loan.

Requirements

1. Prepare Draper Consulting’s cash budget for January and February 2013.

2. How much cash will Draper borrow in February if collections from customers that month total $21,500 instead of $51,500?

five years ago jack cadence left his position at a 372350

Five years ago, Jack Cadence left his position at a large company to start Advanced Technologies Co. (ATC), a software design company. ATC’s first product was a unique software package that seamlessly integrates networked PCs. Robust sales of this initial product permitted the company to begin development of other software products and to hire additional personnel. The staff at ATC quickly grew from three people working out of Cadence’s basement to over 70 individuals working in leased spaces at an industrial park. Continued growth led Cadence to hire seasoned marketing, distribution, and production managers and an experienced accountant, Bill Cross.

Recently, Cadence decided that the company had become too large to run on an informal basis and that a formalized planning and control program centered around a budget was necessary. Cadence asked the accountant, Bill Cross, to work with him in developing the initial budget for ATC.

Cadence forecasted sales revenues based on his projections for both the market growth for the initial software and successful completion of new products. Cross used this data to construct the master budget for the company, which he then broke down into departmental budgets. Cadence and Cross met a number of times over a three week period to hammer out the details of the budgets.

When Cadence and Cross were satisfied with their work, the various departmental budgets were distributed to the department managers with a cover letter explaining ATC’s new budgeting system.

The letter requested everyone’s assistance in working together to achieve the budget objectives.

Several of the department managers were displeased with how the budgeting process was undertaken. In discussing the situation among themselves, they felt that some of the budget projections were overly optimistic and not realistically attainable.

Required:

1. How does the budgeting process Cadence and Cross used at ATC differ from recommended practice?

2. What are the behavioral implications of the way Cadence and Cross went about preparing the master budget?

granger stokes managing partner of the venture capital firm of 372354

Granger Stokes, managing partner of the venture capital firm of Halston and Stokes, was dissatisfied with the top management of PrimeDrive, a manufacturer of computer disk drives. Halston and Stokes had invested $20 million in PrimeDrive, and the return on their investment had been unsatisfactory for several years. In a tense meeting of the board of directors of PrimeDrive, Stokes exercised his firm’s rights as the major equity investor in PrimeDrive and fi red PrimeDrive’s chief executive officer (CEO). He then quickly moved to have the board of directors of PrimeDrive appoint himself as the new CEO.

Stokes prided himself on his hard driving management style. At the first management meeting, he asked two of the managers to stand and fi red them on the spot, just to show everyone who was in control of the company. At the budget review meeting that followed, he ripped up the departmental budgets that had been submitted for his review and yelled at the managers for their ?owimpy, do nothing targets.?? He then ordered everyone to submit new budgets calling for at least a 40% increase in sales volume and announced that he would not accept excuses for results that fell below budget.

Keri Kalani, an accountant working for the production manager at PrimeDrive, discovered toward the end of the year that her boss had not been scrapping defective disk drives that had been returned by customers. Instead, he had been shipping them in new cartons to other customers to avoid booking losses. Quality control had deteriorated during the year as a result of the push for increased volume, and returns of defective TRX drives were running as high as 15% of the new drives shipped. When she confronted her boss with her discovery, he told her to mind her own business.

And then, to justify his actions, he said, ?oAll of us managers are finding ways to hit Stokes’s targets.??

Required:

1. Is Granger Stokes using budgets as a planning and control tool?

2. What are the behavioral consequences of the way budgets are being used at Prime Drive?

3. What, if anything, do you think Keri Kalani should do?

linda ellis division manager is evaluated and rewarded on the 372372

Linda Ellis, division manager, is evaluated and rewarded on the basis of budgetary performance. Linda, her assistants, and the plant managers are all eligible to receive a bonus if actual divisional profits are between budgeted profits and 120 percent of budgeted profits. The bonuses are based on a fixed percentage of actual profits. Profits above 120 percent of budgeted profits earn a bonus at the 120 percent level (in other words, there is an upper limit on possible bonus payments). If the actual profits are less than budgeted profits, no bonuses are awarded. Consider the following actions taken by Linda:

a. Linda tends to overestimate expenses and underestimate revenues. This approach facilitates the ability of the division to attain budgeted profits. Linda believes that the action is justified because it increases the likelihood of receiving bonuses and helps to keep the morale of the managers high.

b. Suppose that toward the end of the fiscal year, Linda saw that the division would not achieve budgeted profits. Accordingly, she instructed the sales department to defer the closing of a number of sales agreements to the following fiscal year. She also decided to write off some inventory that was nearly worthless. Deferring revenues to next year and writing off the inventory in a no bonus year increased the chances of a bonus for next year.

c. Assume that toward the end of the year, Linda saw that actual profits would likely exceed the 120 percent limit and that she took actions similar to those described in item b.

Required:

1. Comment on the ethics of Linda’s behavior. Are her actions right or wrong? What role does the company play in encouraging her actions?

2. Suppose that you are the marketing manager for the division, and you receive instructions to defer the closing of sales until the next fiscal year. What would you do?

3. Suppose that you are a plant manager, and you know that your budget has been padded by the division manager. Further, suppose that the padding is common knowledge among the plant managers, who support it because it increases the ability to achieve the budget and receive a bonus. What would you do?

4. Suppose that you are the division controller, and you receive instructions from the division manager to accelerate the recognition of some expenses that legitimately belong to a future period. What would you do?

Determining Bad Debt Expense Based on Aging Analysis – Briggs & Stratton Engines Inc. uses the aging approach to estimate bad debt expense at the end of each accounting year. Credit sales occur frequently on terms n/45. The balance of each account receivable is aged on the basis of four time periods as follows: (1) not yet due, (2) up to 6 months past due, (3) 6 to 12 months past due, and (4) more than one year past due. Experience has shown that for each age group, the average loss rate on the amount of the receivable at year-end due to uncollectability is ( a ) 1 percent, ( b ) 5 percent, ( c ) 20 percent, and ( d ) 50 percent, respectively. At December 31, 2011 (end of the current accounting year), the Accounts Receivable balance was $39,500, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance was $1,550 (credit). In determining which accounts have been paid, the company applies collections to the oldest sales first. To simplify, only five customer accounts are used; the details of each on December 31, 2011, follow:

determining bad debt expense based on aging analysis 555573

Determining Bad Debt Expense Based on Aging Analysis – Blue Skies Equipment Company uses the aging approach to estimate bad debt expense at the end of each accounting year. Credit sales occur frequently on terms n/60. The balance of each account receivable is aged on the basis of three time periods as follows: (1) not yet due, (2) up to one year past due, and (3) more than one year past due. Experience has shown that for each age group, the average loss rate on the amount of the receivable at year-end due to uncollectability is ( a ) 2 percent, ( b ) 7 percent, and ( c ) 30 percent, respectively. At December 31, 2011 (end of the current accounting year), the Accounts Receivable balance was $46,700, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance was $920 (credit). In determining which accounts have been paid, the company applies collections to the oldest sales first. To simplify, only five customer accounts are used; the details of each on December 31, 2011, follow:

Making a Decision as an Auditor: Effects of Errors on Income, Assets, and Liabilities – Megan Company (not a corporation) was careless about its financial records during its first year of operations, 2010. It is December 31, 2010, the end of the annual accounting period. An outside CPA has examined the records and discovered numerous errors, all of which are described here. Assume that each error is independent of the others.

Required:

Analyze each error and indicate its effect on 2010 and 2011 net income, assets, and liabilities if not corrected. Do not assume any other errors. Use these codes to indicate the effect of each dollar amount: O = overstated, U = understated, and NE = no effect. Write an explanation of your analysis of each transaction to support your response. The first transaction is used as an example.

7. On December 31, 2010, bought land

payment was made on February 1, 2011.

Following is a sample explanation of the first error:

Failure to record depreciation in 2010 caused depreciation expense to be too low; therefore, income was overstated by $950. Accumulated depreciation also is too low by $950, which causes assets to be overstated by $950 until the error is corrected.

how is the international accounting treatment for changes in fair value for property 554512

CP 15-2 International fair value accounting

International Accounting Standard No. 16 provides companies the option of valuing property, plant, and equipment at either historical cost or fair value. If fair value is selected, then the property, plant, and equipment must be revalued periodically to fair value. Under fair value, if there is an increase in the value of the property, plant, and equipment over the reporting period, then the increase is credited to stockholders’ equity. However, if there is a decrease in fair value, then the decrease is reported as an expense for the period.

1. Why do International Accounting Standards influence U.S. GAAP?

2. What would be some of the disadvantages of using fair value accounting for property, plant, and equipment?

Jerry Graves and Bonnie Moss decide to form a partnership. Graves will contribute $300,000 to the partnership, while Moss will contribute only $30,000. However, Moss will be responsible for running the day-to-day operations of the partnership, which are anticipated to require about 45 hours per week. In contrast, Graves will only work five hours per week for the partnership. The two partners are attempting to determine a formula for dividing partnership net income. Graves believes the partners should divide income in the ratio of 7:3, favoring Graves, since Graves provides the majority of the capital. Moss believes the income should be divided 7:3, favoring Moss, since Moss provides the majority of effort in running the partnership business.

CP 11-1 Ethics and professional conduct in business

Lisa Deuel is a certified public accountant (CPA) and staff accountant for Bratz and Bratz, a local CPA firm. It had been the policy of the firm to provide a holiday bonus equal to two weeks’ salary to all employees. The firm’s new management team announced on November 15 that a bonus equal to only one week’s salary would be made available to employees this year. Lisa thought that this policy was unfair because she and her coworkers planned on the full two-week bonus. The two-week bonus had been given for 10 straight years, so it seemed as though the firm had breached an implied commitment. Thus, Lisa decided that she would make up the lost bonus week by working an extra six hours of overtime per week over the next five weeks until the end of the year. Bratz and Bratz’s policy is to pay overtime at 150% of straight time. Lisa’s supervisor was surprised to see overtime being reported, since there is generally very little additional or unusual client service demands at the end of the calendar year. However, the overtime was not questioned, since firm employees are on the “honor system” in reporting their overtime.

Discuss whether the firm is acting in an ethical manner by changing the bonus. Is Lisa behaving in an ethical manner?

Sixty-year-old Mary Filmore retired from her computer consulting business in Boston and moved to Florida. There she met 27-year-old Emily Wright, who had just graduated from Eldon Community College with an associate degree in computer science. Mary and Emily formed a partnership called F&W Computer Consultants. Mary contributed $35,000 for startup costs and devoted one-half time to the business. Emily devoted full time to the business. The monthly drawings were $2,000 for Mary and $4,000 for Emily. At the end of the first year of operations, the two partners disagreed on the division of net income. Mary reasoned that the division should be equal. Although she devoted only one-half time to the business, she contributed all of the startup funds. Emily reasoned that the income-sharing ratio should be 2:1 in her favor because she devoted full time to the business and her monthly drawings were twice those of Mary.

EX 11-14 Payroll internal control procedures

Big Dave’s Pizza is a pizza restaurant specializing in the sale of pizza by the slice. The store employs 10 full-time and 15 part-time workers. The store’s weekly payroll averages $5,600 for all 25 workers.

Big Dave’s Pizza uses a personal computer to assist in preparing paychecks. Each week, the store’s accountant collects employee time cards and enters the hours worked into the payroll program. The payroll program calculates each employee’s pay and prints a paycheck. The accountant uses a check-signing machine to sign the paychecks. Next, the restaurant’s owner authorizes the transfer of funds from the restaurant’s regular bank account to the payroll account.

For the week of June 11, the accountant accidentally recorded 200 hours worked instead of 40 hours for one of the full-time employees.

Does Big Dave’s Pizza have internal controls in place to catch this error? If so, how will this error be detected?

EX 11-15 Internal control procedures

Matt’s Bikes is a small manufacturer of specialty bicycles. The company employs 18 production workers and four administrative persons. The following procedures are used to process the company’s weekly payroll:

a. Whenever an employee receives a pay raise, the supervisor must fill out a wage adjustment form, which is signed by the company president. This form is used to change the employee’s wage rate in the payroll system.

b. All employees are required to record their hours worked by clocking in and out on a time clock. Employees must clock out for lunch break. Due to congestion around the time clock area at lunch time, management has not objected to having one employee clock in and out for an entire department.

c. Whenever a salaried employee is terminated, Personnel authorizes Payroll to remove the employee from the payroll system. However, this procedure is not required when an hourly worker is terminated. Hourly employees only receive a paycheck if their time cards show hours worked. The computer automatically drops an employee from the payroll system when that employee has six consecutive weeks with no hours worked.

d. Paychecks are signed by using a check-signing machine. This machine is located in the main office so that it can be easily accessed by anyone needing a check signed.

e. Matt’s Bikes maintains a separate checking account for payroll checks. Each week, the total net pay for all employees is transferred from the company’s regular bank account to the payroll account.

State whether each of the procedures is appropriate or inappropriate after considering the principles of internal control. If a procedure is inappropriate, describe the appropriate procedure.

Several months ago, Reiltz Industries, Inc. experienced a hazardous materials spill at one of its plants. As a result, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) fined the company $570,000. The company is contesting the fine. In addition, an employee is seeking $560,000 in damages related to the spill. Lastly, a homeowner has sued the company for $364,000. The homeowner lives 35 miles from the plant, but believes that the incident has reduced the home’s resale value by $364,000.

Reiltz’s legal counsel believes that it is probable that the EPA fine will stand. In addition, counsel indicates that an out-of-court settlement of $238,000 has recently been reached with the employee. The final papers will be signed next week. Counsel believes that the homeowner’s case is much weaker and will be decided in favor of Reiltz. Other litigation related to the spill is possible, but the damage amounts are uncertain.

Courtside Concepts Co. began business on January 2, 2011. Salaries were paid to employees on the last day of each month, and social security tax, Medicare tax, and federal income tax were withheld in the required amounts. An employee who is hired in the middle of the month receives half the monthly salary for that month. All required payroll tax reports were filed, and the correct amount of payroll taxes was remitted by the company for the calendar year. Early in 2012, before the Wage and Tax Statements (Form W-2) could be prepared for distribution to employees and for filing with the Social Security Administration, the employees’ earnings records were inadvertently destroyed.

None of the employees resigned or were discharged during the year, and there were no changes in salary rates. The social security tax was withheld at the rate of 6.0% and Medicare tax at the rate of 1.5% on salary.

PR 11-3B Wage and tax statement data and employer FICA tax

Diamond Industries, Inc., began business on January 2, 2011. Salaries were paid to employees on the last day of each month, and social security tax, Medicare tax, and federal income tax were withheld in the required amounts. An employee who is hired in the middle of the month receives half the monthly salary for that month. All required payroll tax reports were filed, and the correct amount of payroll taxes was remitted by the company for the calendar year. Early in 2012, before the Wage and Tax Statements (Form W-2) could be prepared for distribution to employees and for filing with the Social Security Administration, the employees’ earnings records were inadvertently destroyed.

None of the employees resigned or were discharged during the year, and there were no changes in salary rates. The social security tax was withheld at the rate of 6.0% and Medicare tax at the rate of 1.5% on salary. Data on dates of employment, salary rates, and employees’ income taxes withheld, which are summarized as follows, were obtained from personnel records and payroll records:

EX 8-4 Internal controls for bank lending

Evergreen Bank provides loans to businesses in the community through its Commercial Lending Department. Small loans (less than $250,000) may be approved by an individual loan officer, while larger loans (greater than $250,000) must be approved by a board of loan officers. Once a loan is approved, the funds are made available to the loan applicant under agreed-upon terms. The president of Evergreen Bank has instituted a policy whereby he has the individual authority to approve loans up to $10,000,000. The president believes that this policy will allow flexibility to approve loans to valued clients much quicker than under the previous policy.

As an internal auditor of Evergreen Bank, how would you respond to this change in policy?

digit tech company a communications equipment manufacturer recently fell victim to a 554082

EX 8-15 Internal control of cash payments

Digit Tech Company, a communications equipment manufacturer, recently fell victim to a fraud scheme developed by one of its employees. To understand the scheme, it is necessary to review Digit Tech’s procedures for the purchase of services. The purchasing agent is responsible for ordering services (such as repairs to a photocopy machine or office cleaning) after receiving a service requisition from an authorized manager. However, since no tangible goods are delivered, a receiving report is not prepared. When the Accounting Department receives an invoice billing Digit Tech for a service call, the accounts payable clerk calls the manager who requested the service in order to verify that it was performed. The fraud scheme involves Loretta Trent, the manager of plant and facilities. Loretta arranged for her uncle’s company, Laser Systems, to be placed on Digit Tech’s approved vendor list. Loretta did not disclose the family relationship. On several occasions, Loretta would submit a requisition for services to be provided by Laser Systems. However, the service requested was really not needed, and it was never performed. Laser Systems would bill Digit Tech for the service and then split the cash payment with Loretta.

Explain what changes should be made to Digit Tech’s procedures for ordering and paying for services in order to prevent such occurrences in the future.

inventory ratios for dell and hp dell inc and hewlett packard development company l 554047

CP 7-4 Inventory ratios for Dell and HP Dell Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. (HP) are both manufacturers of computer equipment and peripherals. However, the two companies follow two different strategies. Dell follows primarily a build-to-order strategy, where the consumer orders the computer from a Web page. The order is then manufactured and shipped to the customer within days of the order. In contrast, HP follows a build-to-stock strategy, where the computer is first built for inventory, then sold from inventory to retailers, such as Best Buy. The two strategies can be seen in the difference between the inventory turnover and number of days’ sales in inventory ratios for the two companies. The following financial statement information is provided for Dell and HP for a recent fiscal year (in millions): Dell HP Inventory, beginning of period $1,180 $7,879 Inventory, end of period 867 6,128 Cost of goods sold 50,144 87,524 a.

joan whalen has recently been hired as the manager of jittery coffee shop jittery co 554069

EX 8-2 Internal controls

Joan Whalen has recently been hired as the manager of Jittery Coffee Shop. Jittery Coffee Shop is a national chain of franchised coffee shops. During her first month as store manager, Joan encountered the following internal control situations:

a. Since only one employee uses the cash register, that employee is responsible for counting the cash at the end of the shift and verifying that the cash in the drawer matches the amount of cash sales recorded by the cash register. Joan expects each cashier to balance the drawer to the penny every time—no exceptions.

b. Joan caught an employee putting a case of 400 single-serving tea bags in her car. Not wanting to create a scene, Joan smiled and said, “I don’t think you’re putting those tea bags on the right shelf. Don’t they belong inside the coffee shop?” The employee returned the tea bags to the stockroom.

c. Jittery Coffee Shop has one cash register. Prior to Joan’s joining the coffee shop, each employee working on a shift would take a customer order, accept payment, and then prepare the order. Joan made one employee on each shift responsible for taking orders and accepting the customer’s payment. Other employees prepare the orders.

State whether you agree or disagree with Joan’s method of handling each situation and explain your answer.

how can sales clerks employed at meridian clothing use the store rsquo s return poli 554070

EX 8-3 Internal controls

Meridian Clothing is a retail store specializing in women’s clothing. The store has established a liberal return policy for the holiday season in order to encourage gift purchases. Any item purchased during November and December may be returned through January 31, with a receipt, for cash or exchange. If the customer does not have a receipt, cash will still be refunded for any item under $50. If the item is more than $50, a check is mailed to the customer. Whenever an item is returned, a store clerk completes a return slip, which the customer signs. The return slip is placed in a special box. The store manager visits the return counter approximately once every two hours to authorize the return slips. Clerks are instructed to place the returned merchandise on the proper rack on the selling floor as soon as possible. This year, returns at Meridian Clothing have reached an all-time high. There are a large number of returns under $50 without receipts.

a. How can sales clerks employed at Meridian Clothing use the store’s return policy to steal money from the cash register?

b. What internal control weaknesses do you see in the return policy that make cash thefts easier?

c. Would issuing a store credit in place of a cash refund for all merchandise returned without a receipt reduce the possibility of theft? List some advantages and disadvantages of issuing a store credit in place of a cash refund.

d. Assume that Meridian Clothing is committed to the current policy of issuing cash refunds without a receipt. What changes could be made in the store’s procedures regarding customer refunds in order to improve internal control?

will switching to a perpetual inventory system strengthen a4a hardware rsquo s contr 554017

EX 7-1 Control of inventories

A4A Hardware Store currently uses a periodic inventory system. Ray Ballard, the owner, is considering the purchase of a computer system that would make it feasible to switch to a perpetual inventory system.

Ray is unhappy with the periodic inventory system because it does not provide timely information on inventory levels. Ray has noticed on several occasions that the store runs out of good-selling items, while too many poor-selling items are on hand.

Ray is also concerned about lost sales while a physical inventory is being taken. A4A Hardware currently takes a physical inventory twice a year. To minimize distractions, the store is closed on the day inventory is taken. Ray believes that closing the store is the only way to get an accurate inventory count.

Will switching to a perpetual inventory system strengthen A4A Hardware’s control over inventory items? Will switching to a perpetual inventory system eliminate the need for a physical inventory count? Explain.

prepare a revenue budget prepare a production budget in units prepare the direct mat 553574

The accountant at Canyon Kites has always prepared a budget that is calculated using only one estimated volume of sales. He has asked you to help him set up a spreadsheet that can be used for sensitivity analysis in the budgeting process. This year it appears that the company may not meet expectations, which could result in a loss. He is concerned that the company will incur a loss again next year and wants to develop a budget that will easily reflect changes in the assumptions. After gathering information about next year’s operations, he will provide information using a what-if sensitivity analysis. The following assumptions will be used to begin your analysis:

Direct materials per kite: Direct Labor: Hours Hrly Rate Cost/kite

Nylon $10 Assembly 0.5 $30 $15.00

Ribs $ 5 Packing 0.1 $15 $ 1.50

String $ 2

PART 1:

Create a spreadsheet with a data input box at the top that includes all relevant data. (Put a border around this data to separate). Set up each schedule with cell references to information in the data input box. Any changes made to information in this box should reflect through all of the schedules you create. As you proceed, more information will be given that you will need to add to the data input box, so leave space to add additional data.

  1. Prepare a revenue budget
  2. Prepare a production budget in units
  3. Prepare the direct materials usage budget and a direct materials purchases budget
  4. Prepare a direct labor budget (in hrs and cost)

In addition to the information given above, the following are estimated manufacturing overhead costs. Both fixed and variable overhead will be allocated based on the number of kites produced.

what should borzi do if busch insists that she follow all of these suggestions 552830

Apply ethical standards to decision making

Ava Borzi is the new controller for Halo Software, Inc., which develops and sells education software. Shortly before the December 31 fiscal year-end, Jeremy Busch, the company president, asks Borzi how things look for the year-end numbers. He is not happy to learn that earnings growth may be below 9% for the first time in the company’s fiveyear history. Busch explains that financial analysts have again predicted a 9% earnings growth for the company and that he does not intend to disappoint them. He suggests that Borzi talk to the assistant controller, who can explain how the previous controller dealt with such situations. The assistant controller suggests the following strategies:

a. Persuade suppliers to postpone billing $18,000 in invoices until January 1.

b. Record as sales $120,000 in certain software awaiting sale that is held in a public warehouse.

c. Delay the year-end closing a few days into January of the next year so that some of next year’s sales are included as this year’s sales.

d. Reduce the estimated Bad debt expense from 3% of Sales revenue to 2%, given the company’s continued strong performance.

e. Postpone routine monthly maintenance expenditures from December to January.

Requirements

what he can do with this information 552835

Decision Case 16-1 PowerSwitch, Inc., designs and manufactures switches used in telecommunications. Serious flooding throughout North Carolina affected PowerSwitch’s facilities. Inventory was completely ruined, and the company’s computer system, including all accounting records, was destroyed.

Before the disaster recovery specialists clean the buildings, Stephen Plum, the company controller, is anxious to salvage whatever records he can to support an insurance claim for the destroyed inventory. He is standing in what is left of the accounting department with Paul Lopez, the cost accountant.

“I didn’t know mud could smell so bad,” Paul says. “What should I be looking for?”

“Don’t worry about beginning inventory numbers,” responds Stephen, “we’ll get them from last year’s annual report. We need first-quarter cost data.”

“I was working on the first-quarter results just before the storm hit,” Paul says. “Look, my report’s still in my desk drawer. All I can make out is that for the first quarter, material purchases were $476,000 and direct labor, manufacturing overhead, and total manufacturing costs to account for were $505,000; $245,000; and $1,425,000; respectively. Wait! Cost of goods available for sale was $1,340,000.”

“Great,” says Stephen. “I remember that sales for the period were approximately $1,700,000. Given our gross profit of 30%, that’s all you should need.”

Paul is not sure about that, but decides to see what he can do with this information. The

beginning inventory numbers are

? Direct materials, $113,000

? Work in process, $229,000

? Finished goods, $154,000

He remembers a schedule he learned in college that may help him get started.

Requirements

1. Exhibit 16-11 resembles the schedule Paul has in mind. Use it to determine the ending inventories of direct materials, work in process, and finished goods.

2. Itemize a list of the book value of inventory lost.

what are the possible consequences 552837

Becky Knauer recently resigned from her position as controller for Shamalay Automotive, a small, struggling foreign car dealer in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey. Becky has just started a new job as controller for Mueller Imports, a much larger dealer for the same car manufacturer. Demand for this particular make of car is exploding, and the manufacturer cannot produce enough to satisfy demand. The manufacturer’s regional sales managers are each given a certain number of cars. Each sales manager then decides how to divide the cars among the independently owned dealerships in the region. Because of high demand for these cars, dealerships all want to receive as many cars as they can from the regional sales manager.

Becky’s former employer, Shamalay Automotive, receives only about 25 cars a month. Consequently, Shamalay was not very profitable.

Becky is surprised to learn that her new employer, Mueller Imports, receives over 200 cars a month. Becky soon gets another surprise. Every couple of months, a local jeweler bills the dealer $5,000 for “miscellaneous services.” Franz Mueller, the owner of the dealership, personally approves payment of these invoices, noting that each invoice is a “selling expense.” From casual conversations with a salesperson, Becky learns that Mueller frequently gives Rolex watches to the manufacturer’s regional sales manager and other sales executives. Before talking to anyone about this, Becky decides to work through her ethical dilemma.

Requirement

1. Put yourself in Becky’s place.

a. What is the ethical issue?

b. What are your options?

c. What are the possible consequences?

d. What should you do?

could juan have extricated himself from his situation how 552838

Juan Gomez was the fastest rising star of a small CPA firm in West Palm Beach. Most of his clients traveled in stratospheric circles of wealth, and Juan knew that fitting in with this crowd was essential to his career. Although he made good money, it wasn’t enough to live that kind of lifestyle. Meanwhile, Juan had become friends with one of his clients, Tony Russo. Knowing Russo’s books inside and out, and being on close terms with him, Juan asked Tony for a personal loan. Juan was sure he’d be able to pay it back when he got his next bonus, but things stretched out, and additional loans were made. Two years later, Tony’s company hit some losses, and the numbers were looking grim. Tony reminded Juan that it would not look good for his career if his CPA firm knew Juan had borrowed from a client, and so Juan changed a few numbers and signed off on clean financials for Tony’s firm. This went on for three years, until one morning when Juan got a call. Russo had died; his sons had gone through the books, and the whole scheme came out. Juan did some prison time and lost his license, but he was repentant, and made an instructional video for accounting students to warn them of the temptations they may encounter in the real world of business.

Requirements

1. Although the protagonist of this story worked in public accounting, please refer to the Statement of Ethical Professional Practice in Exhibit 16-3 and discuss which of those issues are reflected in this case.

2. Could Juan have extricated himself from his situation? How?

4. Does the Web site provide an e-mail link for contacting the company?

At the interview, begin by clarifying your team’s answers to questions 1 through 4, and ask the following additional questions:

5. If the company sells over the Web, what benefits has the company derived? Did the company perform a cost-benefit analysis before deciding to begin Web sales?

Or

If the company does not sell over the Web, why not? Has the company performed a costbenefit analysis and decided not to sell over the Web?

6. What is the biggest cost of operating the Web site?

7. Does the company make any purchases over the Internet? What percentage?

8. How has e-commerce affected the company’s managerial accounting system? Have the managerial accountant’s responsibilities become more or less complex? More or less interesting?

9. Does the company use Web-based accounting applications, such as accounts receivable or accounts payable?

10. Does the company use an ERP system? If so, do managers view the system as a success? What have been the benefits? The costs? Your team should summarize your findings in a short paper. Provide any exhibits that enhance your explanation of key items. Provide proper references and a works cited page.

how would the initial break even operating lease rate change if rapid technological 552573

How would the initial break-even operating lease rate change if rapid technological change in limo manufacturing reduces the costs of new limos by 5% per year? 12.

Year 0

Year 1

Year 2

Year 3

Lease cash flow

+62,000

-26,800

-22,200

-17,600

These flows reflect the cost of the machine, depreciation tax shields, and the after-tax lease payments. Ignore salvage value. Assume the firm could borrow at 10% and faces a 35% marginal tax rate.

a. What is the value of the equivalent loan?

b. What is the value of the lease?

c. Suppose the machine’s NPV under normal financing is -$5,000. Should National Waferonics invest? Should it sign the lease?

magna charter has been asked to operate a beaver bush plane for a mining company exp 552583

Magna Charter has been asked to operate a Beaver bush plane for a mining company exploring north and west of Fort Liard. Magna will have a firm one-year contract with the mining company and expects that the contract will be renewed for the five-year duration of the exploration program. If the mining company renews at year 1, it will commit to use the plane for four more years. Magna Charter has the following choices.

• Buy the plane for $500,000.

• Take a one-year operating lease for the plane. The lease rate is $118,000, paid in advance.

• Arrange a five-year, non cancelable financial lease at a rate of $75,000 per year, paid in advance. These are net leases: all operating costs are absorbed by Magna Charter. How would you advise Agnes Magna, the charter company’s CEO? For simplicity assume five-year, straight-line depreciation for tax purposes. The company’s tax rate is 35%. The weighted-average cost of capital for the bush-plane business is 14%, but Magna can borrow at 9%. The expected inflation rate is 4%. Ms. Magna thinks the plane will be worth $300,000 after five years. But if the contract with the mining company is not renewed (there is a 20% probability of this outcome at year 1), the plane will have to be sold on short notice for $400,000. If Magna Charter takes the five-year financial lease and the mining company cancels at year 1, Magna can sublet the plane, that is, rent it out to another user. Make additional assumptions as necessary.

under what condition would the reclassification of the receivables be ethical 552722

Moss Exports is having a bad year. Net income is only $60,000. Also, two important overseas customers are falling behind in their payments to Moss, and Moss’s accounts receivable are ballooning.

The company desperately needs a loan. The Moss Exports board of directors is considering ways to put the best face on the company’s financial statements. Moss’s bank closely examines cash flow from operations. Daniel Peavey, Moss’s controller, suggests reclassifying the receivables from the slow-paying clients as long-term. He explains to the board that removing the $80,000 rise in accounts receivable from current assets will increase net cash provided by operations. This approach may help Moss get the loan.

Requirements

1. Using only the amounts given, compute net cash provided by operations, both without and with the reclassification of the receivables. Which reporting makes Moss look better?

2. Under what condition would the reclassification of the receivables be ethical? Unethical?

how can a business protect against this kind of fraud 552723

Frank Lou had recently been promoted to construction manager at a development firm. He was responsible for dealing with contractors who were bidding on a multi-million dollar excavation job for the new high-rise. Times were tough, several contractors had gone under recently, and the ones left standing were viciously competitive. That morning, four bids were sitting on Frank’s desk. The deadline was midnight, and the bids would be opened the next morning. The first bidder, Bo Freely, was a tough but personable character that Frank had known for years. Frank had lunch with him today, and after a few beers, Bo hinted that if Frank “inadvertently” mentioned the amount of the lowest bid, he’d receive a “birthday card” with a gift of cash. After lunch, Frank carefully unsealed the bids and noticed that another firm had underbid Bo’s company by a small margin. Frank took Bo’s bid envelope, wrote the low bid amount in pencil on it, and carried it downstairs where Bo’s son William was waiting. Later that afternoon, a new bid came in from Bo’s company. The next day, Bo’s company got the job, and Frank got a birthday card in his mailbox.

Requirements

1. Was Frank’s company hurt in any way by this fraudulent action?

2. How could this action hurt Frank?

3. How can a business protect against this kind of fraud?

what is the value today of steinberg rsquo s debt and equity what about that for die 552138

Costs of Financial Distress – Steinberg Corporation and Dietrich Corporation are identical firms except that Dietrich is more levered. Both companies will remain in business for one more year. The companies’ economists agree that the probability of the continuation of the current expansion is 80 percent for the next year, and the probability of a recession is 20 percent. If the expansion continues, each firm will generate earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $2.4 million. If a recession occurs, each firm will generate earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $900,000. Steinberg’s debt obligation requires the firm to pay $800,000 at the end of the year. Dietrich’s debt obligation requires the firm to pay $1.1 million at the end of the year. Neither firm pays taxes. Assume a discount rate of 15 percent.

1. What is the value today of Steinberg’s debt and equity? What about that for Dietrich’s?

2. Steinberg’s CEO recently stated that Steinberg’s value should be higher than Dietrich’s because the firm has less debt and therefore less bankruptcy risk. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

what is the expected value of the firm rsquo s equity if the low volatility project 552139

Agency Costs – Fountain Corporation’s economists estimate that a good business environment and a bad business environment are equally likely for the coming year. The managers of Fountain must choose between two mutually exclusive projects. Assume that the project Fountain chooses will be the firm’s only activity and that the firm will close one year from today. Fountain is obligated to make a $2,500 payment to bondholders at the end of the year. The projects have the same systematic risk but different volatilities. Consider the following information pertaining to the two projects:

Economy

Probability

Low-Volatility Project Payoff

High-Volatility Project Payoff

Bad

.50

$2,500

$2,100

Good

.50

2,700

2,800

1. What is the expected value of the firm if the low-volatility project is undertaken? What if the high-volatility project is undertaken? Which of the two strategies maximizes the expected value of the firm?

2. What is the expected value of the firm’s equity if the low-volatility project is undertaken?

What is it if the high-volatility project is undertaken?

3. Which project would Fountain’s stockholders prefer? Explain.

4. Suppose bondholders are fully aware that stockholders might choose to maximize equity value rather than total firm value and opt for the high-volatility project. To minimize this agency cost, the firm’s bondholders decide to use a bond covenant to stipulate that the bondholders can demand a higher payment if Fountain chooses to take on the high-volatility project. What payment to bondholders would make stockholders indifferent between the two projects?

assume that expected bankruptcy costs have a present value of 400 000 how does this 552141

Personal Taxes, Bankruptcy Costs, and Firm Value – Overnight Publishing Company (OPC) has $2.5 million in excess cash. The firm plans to use this cash either to retire all of its outstanding debt or to repurchase equity. The firm’s debt is held by one institution that is willing to sell it back to OPC for $2.5 million. The institution will not charge OPC any transaction costs. Once OPC becomes an all-equity firm, it will remain unlevered forever. If OPC does not retire the debt, the company will use the $2.5 million in cash to buy back some of its stock on the open market. Repurchasing stock also has no transaction costs. The company will generate $1,300,000 of annual earnings before interest and taxes in perpetuity regardless of its capital structure. The firm immediately pays out all earnings as dividends at the end of each year. OPC is subject to a corporate tax rate of 35 percent, and the required rate of return on the firm’s unlevered equity is 20 percent. The personal tax rate on interest income is 25 percent, and there are no taxes on equity distribution. Assume there are no bankruptcy costs.

1. What is the value of OPC if it chooses to retire all of its debt and become an unlevered firm?

2. What is the value of OPC if is decides to repurchase stock instead of retiring its debt? (Hint: Use the equation for the value of a levered firm with personal tax on interest income from the previous problem.)

3. Assume that expected bankruptcy costs have a present value of $400,000. How does this influence OPC’s decision?

evaluate drk rsquo s dividend reinvestment plan will it increase shareholder wealth 552166

Dividend Reinvestment Plans – The DRK Corporation has recently developed a dividend reinvestment plan, or DRIP. The plan allows investors to reinvest cash dividends automatically in DRK in exchange for new shares of stock. Over time, investors in DRK will be able to build their holdings by reinvesting dividends to purchase additional shares of the company.

Over 1,000 companies offer dividend reinvestment plans. Most companies with DRIPs charge no brokerage or service fees. In fact, the shares of DRK will be purchased at a 10 percent discount from the market price.

A consultant for DRK estimates that about 75 percent of DRK’s shareholders will take part in this plan. This is somewhat higher than the average.

Evaluate DRK’s dividend reinvestment plan. Will it increase shareholder wealth? Discuss the advantages and disadvantages involved here.

would it be irrational for it to have low dividend high growth stocks in its portfol 552168

Investment and Dividends – The Phew Charitable Trust pays no taxes on its capital gains or on its dividend income or interest income. Would it be irrational for it to have low-dividend, high growth stocks in its portfolio? Would it be irrational for it to have municipal bonds in its portfolio? Explain.

Use the following information to answer the next two questions:

Historically, the U.S. tax code treated dividend payments made to shareholders as ordinary income. Thus, dividends were taxed at the investor’s marginal tax rate, which was as high as 38.6 percent in 2002. Capital gains were taxed at a capital gains tax rate, which was the same for most investors and fluctuated through the years. In 2002, the capital gains tax rate stood at 20 percent.

In an effort to stimulate the economy, President George W. Bush presided over a tax plan overhaul that included changes in dividend and capital gains tax rates. The new tax plan, which was implemented in 2003, called for a 15 percent tax rate on both dividends and capital gains for investors in higher tax brackets. For lower tax bracket investors, the tax rate on dividends and capital gains was set at 5 percent through 2007, dropping to zero in 2008.

is it realistic to use the mm model in the real world to value stock why or why not 552187

Dividends and Stock Price – The Mann Company belongs to a risk class for which the appropriate discount rate is 10 percent. Mann currently has 150,000 outstanding shares selling at $120 each. The firm is contemplating the declaration of a $5 dividend at the end of the fiscal year that just began. Assume there are no taxes on dividends. Answer the following questions based on the Miller and Modigliani model, which is discussed in the text.

1. What will be the price of the stock on the ex-dividend date if the dividend is declared?

2. What will be the price of the stock at the end of the year if the dividend is not declared?

3. If Mann makes $3 million of new investments at the beginning of the period, earns net income of $1.4 million, and pays the dividend at the end of the year, how many shares of new stock must the firm issue to meet its funding needs?

4. Is it realistic to use the MM model in the real world to value stock? Why or why not?

comment on the claim that the low dividend is depressing the stock price support you 552191

Dividends and Firm Value – The net income of Novis Corporation is $45,000. The company has 20,000 outstanding shares and a 100 percent payout policy. The expected value of the firm one year from now is $1,635,000. The appropriate discount rate for Novis is 12 percent, and the dividend tax rate is zero.

1. What is the current value of the firm assuming the current dividend has not yet been paid?

2. What is the ex-dividend price of Novis’s stock if the board follows its current policy?

3. At the dividend declaration meeting, several board members claimed that the dividend is too meager and is probably depressing Novis’s price. They proposed that Novis sell enough new shares to finance a $4.60 dividend.

1. Comment on the claim that the low dividend is depressing the stock price. Support your argument with calculations.

2. If the proposal is adopted, at what price will the new shares sell? How many will be sold?

what does this problem tell you about real world tax considerations and the dividend 552195

Dividends and Taxes – As discussed in the text, in the absence of market imperfections and tax effects, we would expect the share price to decline by the amount of the dividend payment when the stock goes ex dividend. Once we consider the role of taxes, however, this is not necessarily true. One model has been proposed that incorporates tax effects into determining the ex-dividend price:

(P0– PX)/D = (1 – tP)/(1 – tG)

Here P0 is the price just before the stock goes ex, PX is the ex-dividend share price, D is the amount of the dividend per share, tP is the relevant marginal personal tax rate on dividends, and tGis the effective marginal tax rate on capital gains.

1. If tP= tG= 0, how much will the share price fall when the stock goes ex?

2. If tP= 15 percent and tG= 0, how much will the share price fall?

3. If tP= 15 percent and tG= 20 percent, how much will the share price fall?

4. Suppose the only owners of stock are corporations. Recall that corporations get at least a 70 percent exemption from taxation on the dividend income they receive, but they do not get such an exemption on capital gains. If the corporation’s income and capital gains tax rates are both 35 percent, what does this model predict the ex-dividend share price will be?

5. What does this problem tell you about real-world tax considerations and the dividend policy of the firm?

should the cash be paid today or in three years which of the two options generates t 552196

Dividends versus Reinvestment – National Business Machine Co. (NBM) has $3 million of extra cash after taxes have been paid. NBM has two choices to make use of this cash. One alternative is to invest the cash in financial assets. The resulting investment income will be paid out as a special dividend at the end of three years. In this case, the firm can invest in either Treasury bills yielding 5 percent or 7 percent preferred stock. IRS regulations allow the company to exclude from taxable income 70 percent of the dividends received from investing in another company’s stock. Another alternative is to pay out the cash now as dividends. This would allow the shareholders to invest on their own in Treasury bills with the same yield or in preferred stock. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. Assume the investor has a 31 percent personal income tax rate, which is applied to interest income and preferred stock dividends. The personal dividend tax rate is 15 percent on common stock dividends. Should the cash be paid today or in three years? Which of the two options generates the highest after tax income for the shareholders?

what is the annual lease payment that will make wolfson indifferent to whether it le 552252

Lease or Buy – Wolfson Corporation has decided to purchase a new machine that costs $5.1 million. The machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis and will be worthless after four years. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. The Sur Bank has offered Wolfson a four-year loan for $5.1 million. The repayment schedule is four yearly principal repayments of $1,275,000 and an interest charge of 9 percent on the outstanding balance of the loan at the beginning of each year. Both principal repayments and interest are due at the end of each year. Cal Leasing Corporation offers to lease the same machine to Wolfson. Lease payments of $1.5 million per year are due at the beginning of each of the four years of the lease.

1. Should Wolfson lease the machine or buy it with bank financing?

2. What is the annual lease payment that will make Wolfson indifferent to whether it leases the machine or purchases it?

what apr is the dealer quoting you what is your monthly lease payment for a 36 month 552254

Automobile Lease Payments – Automobiles are often leased, and there are several terms unique to auto leases. Suppose you are considering leasing a car. The price you and the dealer agree on for the car is $28,000. This is the base capitalized cost. Other costs added to the capitalized cost price include the acquisition (bank) fee, insurance, or extended warranty.

Assume these costs are $450. Capitalization cost reductions include any down payment, credit for trade-in, or dealer rebate. Assume you make a down payment of $2,000, and there is no trade-in or rebate. If you drive 12,000 miles per year, the lease-end residual value for this car will be $16,500 after three years. The lease or “money” factor, which is the interest rate on the loan, is the APR of the loan divided by 2,400. (We’re not really sure where the 2,400 comes from either.) The lease factor the dealer quotes you is .00342. The monthly lease payment consists of three parts: a depreciation fee, a finance fee, and sales tax.

The depreciation fee is the net capitalization cost minus the residual value divided by the term of the lease. The net capitalization cost is the cost of the car minus any cost reductions plus any additional costs. The finance fee is the net capitalization cost plus the residual times the money factor, and the monthly sales tax is simply the monthly lease payment times the tax rate. What APR is the dealer quoting you? What is your monthly lease payment for a 36-month lease if the sales tax is 7 percent?

should farmer lease the ipm machine or purchase the more efficient bmc machine 552256

Lease or Buy – High electricity costs have made Farmer Corporation’s chicken-plucking machine economically worthless. Only two machines are available to replace it. The International Plucking Machine (IPM) model is available only on a lease basis. The lease payments will be $27,000 for five years, due at the beginning of each year. This machine will save Farmer $12,000 per year through reductions in electricity costs in every year. As an alternative, Farmer can purchase a more energy efficient machine from Basic Machine Corporation (BMC) for $150,000. This machine will save $20,000 per year in electricity costs. A local bank has offered to finance the machine with a $150,000 loan. The interest rate on the loan will be 10 percent on the remaining balance and will require five annual principal payments of $30,000. Farmer has a target debt-to-asset ratio of 67 percent. Farmer is in the 34 percent tax bracket. After five years, both machines will be worthless. The machines will be depreciated on a straight-line basis.

1. Should Farmer lease the IPM machine or purchase the more efficient BMC machine?

2. Does your answer depend on the form of financing for direct purchase?

3. How much debt is displaced by this lease?

universal auto is a large multinational corporation headquartered in the united stat 551963

Universal Auto is a large multinational corporation headquartered in the United States. For segment reporting purposes, the company is engaged in two businesses: production of motor vehicles and information processing services. The motor vehicle business is by far the larger of Universal’s two segments. It consists mainly of domestic U.S. passenger car production, but it also includes small truck manufacturing operations in the United States and passenger car production in other countries. This segment of Universal has had weak operating results for the past several years, including a large loss in 1996. Although the company does not reveal the operating results of its domestic assenger car segments, that part of Universal’s business is generally believed to be primarily responsible for the weak performance of its motor vehicle segment. Idata, the information processing services segment of Universal, was started by Universal about 15 years ago. This business has shown strong, steady growth that has been entirely internal; no acquisitions have been made. An excerpt from a research report on Universal prepared by Paul Adams, a CFA candidate, states: “Based on our assumption that Universal will he able to increase prices significantly on U.S. passenger cars in 1997, we project a multibillion dollar profit improvement.”

a. Discuss the concept of an industrial life cycle by describing each of its four phases.

b. Identify where each of Universal’s two primary businesses—passenger cars and information processing—is in such a cycle.

c. Discuss how product pricing should differ between Universal’s two businesses, based on the location of each in the industrial life cycle.

our business plan for your proposed start up firm envisions first year revenues of 1 551966

Your business plan for your proposed start-up firm envisions first-year revenues of $120,000, fixed costs of $30,000, and variable costs equal to one-third of revenue.

a. What are expected profits based on these expectations?

b. What is the degree of operating leverage based on the estimate of fixed costs and expected profits?

c. If sales are 10% below expectation, what will be the decrease in profits?

d. Show that the percentage decrease in profits equals DOL times the 10% drop in sales.

e. Based on the DOL, what is the largest percentage shortfall in sales relative to original expectations that the firm can sustain before profits turn negative? What are break-even sales at this point?

f. Confirm that your answer to (e) is correct by calculating profits at the break-even level of sales. 20. The following problems appeared on past CFA examinations.

a. The supply-side view stresses that:

i. Aggregate demand is the major determinant of real output and aggregate employment.

ii. An increase in government expenditures and tax rates will cause real income to rise.

iii. Tax rates are a major determinant of real output and aggregate employment.

iv. Expansionary monetary policy will cause real output to expand without causing the rate of inflation to accelerate.

b. In macroeconomics, the crowding-out effect refers to:

i. The impact of government deficit spending on inflation.

ii. Increasing population pressures and associated movements toward zero population growth.

iii. A situation where the unemployment rate is below its natural rate.

iv. The impact of government borrowing on interest rates and private investment.

c. Based on historical data and assuming less-than-full employment, periods of sharp acceleration in the growth rate of the money supply tend to be associated initially with:

i. Periods of economic recession.

ii. An increase in the velocity of money.

iii. A rapid growth of gross domestic product.

iv. Reductions in real gross domestic product.

d. If the exchange rate value of the British pound goes from U.S.$1.80 to U.S.$1.60, then the pound has:

i. Appreciated and the British will find U.S. goods cheaper.

ii. Appreciated and the British will find U.S. goods more expensive.

iii. Depreciated and the British will find U.S. goods more expensive.

iv. Depreciated and the British will find U.S. goods cheaper.

e. The consumer price index is:

i. Ameasure of the increase in the prices of the goods that are included in the calculation of GDP.

ii. The ratio of the average price of a typical market basket of goods compared to the cost of producing those goods during the previous year.

iii. A comparison of the cost of a typical bundle of goods during a given period with the cost of the same bundle during a prior base period.

iv. Computed in the same manner as the GDP deflator.

f. Changes in which of the following are likely to affect interest rates?

I. Inflation expectations.

II. Size of the federal deficit.

III. Money supply.

i. I and II only.

ii. II and III only.

iii. I and III only.

iv. I, II, and III.

g. According to the supply-side view of fiscal policy, if the impact of tax revenues is the same, does it make any difference whether the government cuts taxes by either reducing marginal tax rates or increasing the personal exemption allowance?

i. No, both methods of cutting taxes will exert the same impact on aggregate supply.

ii. No, people in both cases will increase their saving expecting higher future taxes and thereby offset the stimulus effect of lower current taxes.

iii. Yes, the lower marginal tax rates alone will increase the incentive to earn marginal income and thereby stimulate aggregate supply.

iv. Yes, interest rates will increase if marginal tax rates are lowered, whereas they will tend to decrease if the personal exemption allowance is raised.

h. If the Federal Reserve wanted to reduce the supply of money as part of an antiinflation policy, it might:

i. Increase the reserve requirements.

ii. Buy U.S. securities on the open market.

iii. Lower the discount rate.

iv. Buy U.S. securities directly from the Treasury.

Briefly discuss why the disparity in ratios may not indicate that New Soft’s shares are overvalued relative to the shares of Capital Corp. Answer the question in terms of the two ratios, and assume that there have been no extraordinary events affecting either company.

b. Using a constant-growth dividend discount model, Black estimated the value of New Soft to be $28 per share and the value of Capital Corp. to be $34 per share. Briefly discuss weaknesses of this dividend discount model and explain why this model may be less suitable for valuing NewSoft than for valuing Capital Corp.

c. Recommend and justify a more appropriate dividend discount model for valuing NewSoft’s common stock.

identify and explain three reasons why over an extended period of time value stock i 551979

“Growth” and “value” can be defined in several ways, but “growth” usually conveys the idea of a portfolio emphasizing or including only issues believed to possess above- average future rates of per-share earnings growth. Low current yield, high price-to-book ratios, and high price-to-earnings ratios are typical characteristics of such portfolios. “Value” usually conveys the idea of portfolios emphasizing or including only issues currently showing low price-to-book ratios, low price-to-earnings ratios, above average levels of dividend yield, and market prices believed to be below the issues’ intrinsic values.

a. Identify and explain three reasons why, over an extended period of time, value stock investing might outperform growth stock investing.

b. Explain why the outcome suggested in part (a) above should not be possible in a market widely regarded as being highly efficient

the stock of ngoro corporation is currently selling for 10 per share earnings per sh 551980

The stock of Ngoro Corporation is currently selling for $10 per share. Earnings per share in the coming year are expected to be $2. The company has a policy of paying out 50% of its earnings each year in dividends. The rest is retained and invested in projects that earn a 20% rate of return per year. This situation is expected to continue indefinitely. a. Assuming the current market price of the stock reflects its intrinsic value as computed using the constant-growth DDM, what rate of return do Ngoro’s investors require?

b. By how much does its value exceed what it would be if all earnings were paid as dividends and nothing were reinvested?

c. If Nogro were to cut its dividend payout ratio to 25%, what would happen to its stock price? What if Nogro eliminated the dividend?

chipset inc is an established computer chip firm with several profitable existing pr 551981

Chipset, Inc., is an established computer chip firm with several profitable existing products as well as some promising new products in development. The company earned $1 a share last year, and just paid out a dividend of $.50 per share. Investors believe the company plans to maintain its dividend payout ratio at 50%. ROE equals 20%. Everyone in the market expects this situation to persist indefinitely.

a. What is the market price of Chiptech stock? The required return for the computer chip industry is 15%, and the company has just gone ex-dividend (i.e., the next dividend will be paid a year from now, at t _ 1).

b. Suppose you discover that Chiptech’s competitor has developed a new chip that will eliminate Chiptech’s current technological advantage in this market. This new product, which will be ready to come to the market in two years, will force Chiptech to reduce the prices of its chips to remain competitive. This will decrease ROE to 15%, and, because of falling demand for its product, Chiptech will decrease the plowback ratio to .40. The plowback ratio will be decreased at the end of the second year, at t _ 2: The annual year-end dividend for the second year (paid at t _ 2) will be 60% of that year’s earnings. What is your estimate of Chiptech’s intrinsic value per share? (Hint: Carefully prepare a table of Chiptech’s earnings and dividends for each of the next three years. Pay close attention to the change in the payout ratio in t _ 2.)

c. No one else in the market perceives the threat to Chiptech’s market. In fact, you are confident that no one else will become aware of the change in Chiptech’s competitive status until the competitor firm publicly announces its discovery near the end of year 2. What will be the rate of return on Chiptech stock in the coming year (i.e., between t _ 0 and t _ 1)? In the second year (between t _ 1 and t _ 2)? The third year (between t _ 2 and t _ 3)? (Hint: Pay attention to when the market catches on to the new situation. A table of dividends and market prices over time might help.)

the digital electronic quotation system deqs corporation pays no cash dividends curr 551984

The Digital Electronic Quotation System (DEQS) Corporation pays no cash dividends currently and is not expected to for the next five years. Its latest EPS was $10, all of which was reinvested in the company. The firm’s expected ROE for the next five years is 20% per year, and during this time it is expected to continue to reinvest all of its earnings. Starting six years from now the firm’s ROE on new investments is expected to fall to 15%, and the company is expected to start paying out 40% of its earnings in cash dividends, which it will continue to do forever after. DEQS’s market capitalization rate is 15% per year.

a. What is your estimate of DEQS’s intrinsic value per share?

b. Assuming its current market price is equal to its intrinsic value, what do you expect to happen to its price over the next year? The year after?

c. What effect would it have on your estimate of DEQS’s intrinsic value if you expected DEQS to pay out only 20% of earnings starting in year 6?

the constant growth ddm will not produce a finite value if the dividend growth rate 551991

The following questions are from past CFA examinations.

a. The constant-growth DDM will not produce a finite value if the dividend growth rate is:

i. Above its historical average.

ii. Above the market capitalization rate.

iii. Below its historical average.

iv. Below the market capitalization rate.

b. According to the constant-growth DDM, a fall in the market capitalization rate will cause a stock’s intrinsic value to:

i. Decrease.

ii. Increase.

iii. Remain unchanged.

iv. Decrease or increase, depending on other factors.

c. You plan to buy a common stock and hold it for one year. You expect to receive both $1.50 in dividends and $26 from the sale of stock at the end of the year. If you wanted to earn a 15% return, what is the maximum price you would pay for the stock today?

d. In the dividend discount model, a factor not affecting the discount rate, k, is the:

i. Real risk-free rate.

ii. Risk premium for stocks.

iii. Return on assets.

iv. Expected inflation rate.

e. Ashare of stock is expected to pay a dividend of $1.00 one year from now and grow at 5% thereafter. In the context of a dividend discount model, the stock is correctly priced today at $10. According to the single-stage, constant-growth DDM, if the required return is 15%, what should be the value of the stock two years from now?

f. Astock is not expected to pay dividends until three years from now. The dividend is then expected to be $2.00 per share, the dividend payout ratio is expected to be 40%, and the return on equity is expected to be 15%. If the required rate of return is 12%, what should be the value of the stock today?

g. The constant-growth DDM would typically be most appropriate in valuing the stock of a:

i. New venture expected to retain all earnings for several years.

ii. Rapidly growing company.

iii. Moderate-growth, “mature” company.

iv. Company with valuable assets not yet generating profits.

h. Astock has a required return of 15%, a constant-growth rate of 10%, and a dividend payout ratio of 45%. The stock’s price–earnings ratio should be:

i. 3.

ii. 4.5.

iii. 9.

iv. 11.

calculate earnings per share eps under each of the three economic scenarios before a 552099

EBIT and Leverage – Money, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $225,000. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $19,000 if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be 30 percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be 60 percent lower. Money is considering a $90,000 debt issue with an 8 percent interest rate. The proceeds will be used to repurchase shares of stock.

There are currently 5,000 shares outstanding. Ignore taxes for this problem.

1. Calculate earnings per share, EPS, under each of the three economic scenarios before any debt is issued. Also calculate the percentage changes in EPS when the economy expands or enters a recession.

2. Repeat part (a) assuming that Money goes through with recapitalization. What do you observe?

Break-Even EBIT and Leverage – Kolby Corp. is comparing two different capital structures. Plan I would result in 1,500 shares of stock and $20,000 in debt. Plan II would result in 1,100 shares of stock and $30,000 in debt. The interest rate on the debt is 10 percent.

1. Ignoring taxes, compare both of these plans to an all-equity plan assuming that EBIT will be $12,000. The all-equity plan would result in 2,300 shares of stock outstanding. Which of the three plans has the highest EPS? The lowest?

2. In part (a) what are the break-even levels of EBIT for each plan as compared to that for an all-equity plan? Is one higher than the other? Why?

3. Ignoring taxes, when will EPS be identical for Plans I and II?

4. Repeat parts (a), (b), and (c) assuming that the corporate tax rate is 40 percent. Are the break-even levels of EBIT different from before? Why or why not?

what will ms brown rsquo s cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the 552105

Homemade Leverage – Star, Inc., a prominent consumer products firm, is debating whether or not to convert its all-equity capital structure to one that is 40 percent debt. Currently there are 5,000 shares outstanding and the price per share is $65. EBIT is expected to remain at $37,500 per year forever. The interest rate on new debt is 8 percent, and there are no taxes.

1. Ms. Brown, a shareholder of the firm, owns 100 shares of stock. What is her cash flow under the current capital structure, assuming the firm has a dividend payout rate of 100 percent?

2. What will Ms. Brown’s cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm? Assume that she keeps all 100 of her shares.

3. Suppose Star does convert, but Ms. Brown prefers the current all-equity capital structure.

Show how she could unlever her shares of stock to recreate the original capital structure.

4. Using your answer to part (c), explain why Star’s choice of capital structure is irrelevant.

discuss whether customer ldquo lock in rdquo is an ethical business practice 551390

CP 5-1 Ethics and professional conduct in business

E-Biz Financial, Inc., provides accounting applications for business customers on the Internet for a monthly subscription. E-Biz Financial customers run their accounting system on the Internet; thus, the business data and accounting software reside on the servers of E-Biz Financial, Inc. The senior management of E-Biz believes that once a customer begins to use E-Biz Financial it would be very difficult to cancel the service. That is, customers are “locked in” because it would be difficult to move the business data from E-Biz Financial to another accounting application, even though the customers own their own data. Therefore, E-Biz Financial has decided to entice customers with an initial low monthly price that is half of the normal monthly rate for the first year of services. After a year, the price will be increased to the regular monthly rate. E-Biz Financial management believes that customers will have to accept the full price because customers will be “locked in” after one year of use.

CP 3-1 Ethics and professional conduct in business

Joshua Thorp opened Laser Co. on January 1, 2011. At the end of the first year, the business needed additional capital. On behalf of Laser, Joshua applied to Vermont National Bank for a loan of $500,000. Based on Laser financial statements, which had been prepared on a cash basis, the Vermont National Bank loan officer rejected the loan as too risky. After receiving the rejection notice, Joshua instructed his accountant to prepare the financial statements on an accrual basis. These statements included $90,000 in accounts receivable and $35,000 in accounts payable. Joshua then instructed his accountant to record an additional $25,000 of accounts receivable for commissions on property for which a contract had been signed on December 28, 2011. The title to the property is to transfer on January 5, 2012, when an attorney formally records the transfer of the property to the buyer. Joshua then applied for a $500,000 loan from NYC Bank, using the revised financial statements. On this application, Joshua indicated that he had not previously been rejected for credit.

why do you think the treasurer wants to report the loss as extraordinary 551085

Decision Case 13-2 The following accounting issues have arisen at T-Shirts Plus, Inc.:

Requirements

1. Corporations sometimes purchase their own stock. When asked why they do so, T-Shirts Plus management responds that the stock is undervalued. What advantage would T-Shirts Plus gain by buying and selling its own undervalued stock?

2. T-Shirts Plus earned a significant profit in the year ended December 31, 2012, because land that it held was purchased by the State of Nebraska for a new highway. The company proposes to treat the sale of land as operating revenue. Why do you think the company is proposing this plan? Is this disclosure appropriate?

3. The treasurer of T-Shirts Plus wants to report a large loss as an extraordinary item because the company produced too much product and cannot sell it. (Under the rules of the lower of cost or market, this situation, in which the net realizable value of inventory is less than the book value, would trigger a write-down of inventory.) Why do you think the treasurer wants to report the loss as extraordinary? Would that be acceptable?

what are the criteria for recording a sale of goods 551087

The following is a true case. General Electric (GE), like many other large corporations, is scrutinized by financial analysts who develop quarterly forecast EPS figures for the company. The companies are under intense pressure to meet or exceed these EPS forecasts. But when earnings fall short, some companies resort to accounting tricks. A few years ago, GE found itself facing this problem. In one case, it “sold” six locomotive engines to a financial institution at year-end with the idea that the financial institution would resell them to GE’s regular railroad customers in the first quarter of the following year. GE booked the revenue at year-end, which helped it hit its forecast EPS numbers. Later, upon investigation by the SEC, the transaction was found to be a “sham,” or phony transaction, because the financial institutions were not taking over full ownership of the engines. In early 2009, GE was fined $50,000,000 for misrepresenting its financial results.

Requirements

1. What are the criteria for recording a sale of goods?

2. Why do company managers feel pressure to meet or exceed EPS forecasts of outside analysts?

see attachment the manager of a division of jokkmok industries 551094

Mr. Rosen is the manager of a division of Jokkmok Industries. He is one of several managers being considered for the position of CEO, as the current CEO is retiring in a year.

All divisions use standard absorption costing. The division has the capacity to produce 50,000 units a quarter and quarterly fixed overhead amounts to $600,000. Mr. Rosen has been looking at the report for the first three months of the year and is not happy with the results.

Division Income Statement
For the Quarter Ending March 31, 2013
Production: 25,000 units
Sales (25,000 units) $2,500,000
Cost of goods sold 1,800,000
Gross profit $700,000
Selling & general expenses 350,000
Net income $350,000

The sales forecast for the second quarter is 25,000 units. Mr. Rosen had budgeted second quarter production at 25,000 units but changes it to 50,000 units, which is total capacity for a quarter. The sales forecasts for each of the last two quarters of the year remain at 25,000 units. Actual fixed costs incurred remain constant in total and variable costs remain constant on per unit basis.

Computations:

  • Convert the divisional absorption income statement to a contribution margin income statement for the quarter.
  • Prepare absorption and contribution margin income statements for the succeeding quarter for the division.
  • Compute production costs per unit for both approaches and for both quarters.

Discussion:

  • Did Mr. Rosen improve his performance for the second quarter? Indicate the information you used for your assessment.
  • Can you make any suggestions for reporting in the future?
  • Do you think Mr. Rosen should be seriously considered for the CEO position? Why or why not?
  • Discuss three shortcomings of the absorption approach for internal decision-making.

a meeting of senior managers at the pringly division has been 551097

A meeting of senior managers at the Pringly Division has been called to discuss the pricing strategy for a new product. Part of the discussion will focus on estimating sales for the new product. Over the past years, a number of new products have failed to meet their sales targets. It appears that the company’s profit for the year will be lower than budget and the main reason for this is the disappointing sales of new products. This time a range of possible sales targets – rather than only one goal – will be established and evaluated.

A meeting of senior managers at the Pringly Division has been called to discuss the pricing strategy for a new product. Part of the discussion will focus on estimating sales for the new product. Over the past years, a number of new products have failed to meet their sales targets. It appears that the company’s profit for the year will be lower than budget and the main reason for this is the disappointing sales of new products. This time a range of possible sales targets – rather than only one goal – will be established and evaluated. The first strategy is to set a selling price of $170 with annual fixed costs at $20,000,000. A number of managers are in favor of this strategy, as they believe it is important to reduce costs. The second strategy is to increase spending on advertising and promotions and set a selling price of $200. With the higher selling price the annual fixed costs would increase to $25,000,000. The marketing department is adamant that increased emphasis on advertising and promotions is essential. The table below shows three probable levels of customer demands. The likelihood of reaching a certain level is indicated by the estimated probability. Note that it is not necessary to create a complex model based on probabilities. However, the probability distribution provides some guidance for the managers. Don’t forget that the company has certain minimum expectations of a new product. Estimated demand (units)?Estimated probability (units)*??150,000?0.25??180,000?0.5??200,000?0.25??*Estimated proabilities are given to assist in making a final recommendation. These probabilities don’t have to be incorporated into a model, just considered in the final recommendation. Additional information The estimate of variable cost per unit is $35. The probability of the new product achieving break-even is very important. A profit greater than $4,000,000 is expected. Assignment Compute break-even at each level. Is the company likely to achieve its desired target…

journalize the issuance of stock to the outsiders under both plans 551045

Decision Case 12-1 Lena Kay and Kathy Lauder have a patent on a new line of cosmetics. They need additional capital to market the products, and they plan to incorporate the business. They are considering the capital structure for the corporation. Their primary goal is to raise as much capital as possible without giving up control of the business. Kay and Lauder plan to invest the patent (an intangible asset, which will be transferred to the company’s ownership in lieu of cash) in the company and receive 100,000 shares of the corporation’s common stock. They have been offered $100,000 for the patent, which provides an indication of the “fair value” of the patent.

The corporation’s plans for a charter include an authorization to issue 5,000 shares of preferred stock and 500,000 shares of $1 par common stock. Kay and Lauder are uncertain about the most desirable features for the preferred stock. Prior to incorporating, they are discussing their plans with two investment groups. The corporation can obtain capital from outside investors under either of the following plans:

? Plan 1. Group 1 will invest $150,000 to acquire 1,500 shares of 6%, $100 par nonvoting, noncumulative preferred stock.

? Plan 2. Group 2 will invest $100,000 to acquire 1,000 shares of $5, no-par preferred stock and $70,000 to acquire 70,000 shares of common stock. Each preferred share receives 50 votes on matters that come before the stockholders.

Requirements

Assume that the corporation has been chartered (approved) by the state.

1. Journalize the issuance of common stock to Kay and Lauder. Explanations are not required.

2. Journalize the issuance of stock to the outsiders under both plans. Explanations are not required.

3. Net income for the first year is $180,000 and total dividends are $30,000. Prepare the stockholders’ equity section of the corporation’s balance sheet under both plans.

4. Recommend one of the plans to Kay and Lauder. Give your reasons.

identify all the stakeholders of a corporation and the stake each group has in the c 551049

Competitive pressures are the norm in business. Lexus automobiles (made in Japan) have cut into the sales of Mercedes Benz (a German company), General Motors’ Cadillac Division, and Ford’s Lincoln Division. Dell, Gateway (now owned by Acer, Inc.), and Compaq computers (now owned by Hewlett-Packard) have siphoned business away from IBM. Foreign steelmakers have reduced the once-massive U.S. steel industry to a fraction of its former size. Indeed, corporate downsizing has occurred on a massive scale. During the past few years, companies mentioned here have pared down their plant and equipment, laid off employees, or restructured operations.

Requirements

1. Identify all the stakeholders of a corporation and the stake each group has in the company. A stakeholder is a person or a group who has an interest (that is, a stake) in the success of the organization.

2. Identify several areas of deficiency that may indicate a corporation’s need for downsizing. How can downsizing help to solve this problem? Discuss how each measure can indicate the need for downsizing.

3. Debate the downsizing issue. One group of students takes the perspective of the company and its stockholders, and another group of students takes the perspective of other stakeholders of the company.

f. Confirm that your answer to (e) is correct by calculating profits at the break-even level of sales. 20. The following problems appeared on past CFA examinations.

a. The supply-side view stresses that:

i. Aggregate demand is the major determinant of real output and aggregate employment.

ii. An increase in government expenditures and tax rates will cause real income to rise.

iii. Tax rates are a major determinant of real output and aggregate employment.

iv. Expansionary monetary policy will cause real output to expand without causing the rate of inflation to accelerate.

b. In macroeconomics, the crowding-out effect refers to:

i. The impact of government deficit spending on inflation.

ii. Increasing population pressures and associated movements toward zero population growth.

iii. A situation where the unemployment rate is below its natural rate.

iv. The impact of government borrowing on interest rates and private investment.

c. Based on historical data and assuming less-than-full employment, periods of sharp acceleration in the growth rate of the money supply tend to be associated initially with:

i. Periods of economic recession.

ii. An increase in the velocity of money.

iii. A rapid growth of gross domestic product.

iv. Reductions in real gross domestic product.

d. If the exchange rate value of the British pound goes from U.S.$1.80 to U.S.$1.60, then the pound has:

i. Appreciated and the British will find U.S. goods cheaper.

ii. Appreciated and the British will find U.S. goods more expensive.

iv. Depreciated and the British will find U.S. goods cheaper.

e. The consumer price index is:

i. Ameasure of the increase in the prices of the goods that are included in the calculation of GDP.

ii. The ratio of the average price of a typical market basket of goods compared to the cost of producing those goods during the previous year.

I. Inflation expectations.

II. Size of the federal deficit.

III. Money supply.

i. I and II only.

ii. II and III only.

iii. I and III only.

iv. I, II, and III.

g. According to the supply-side view of fiscal policy, if the impact of tax revenues is the same, does it make any difference whether the government cuts taxes by either reducing marginal tax rates or increasing the personal exemption allowance?

i. No, both methods of cutting taxes will exert the same impact on aggregate supply.

ii. No, people in both cases will increase their saving expecting higher future taxes and thereby offset the stimulus effect of lower current taxes.

iii. Yes, the lower marginal tax rates alone will increase the incentive to earn marginal income and thereby stimulate aggregate supply.

iv. Yes, interest rates will increase if marginal tax rates are lowered, whereas they will tend to decrease if the personal exemption allowance is raised.

h. If the Federal Reserve wanted to reduce the supply of money as part of an antiinflation policy, it might:

i. Increase the reserve requirements.

ii. Buy U.S. securities on the open market.

iii. Lower the discount rate.

iv. Buy U.S. securities directly from the Treasury.

imelda emma a financial analyst at del advisors inc dai has been asked to assess the 549812

Imelda Emma, a financial analyst at Del Advisors, Inc. (DAI), has been asked to assess the impact that construction of Disney’s new theme parks might have on its stock. DAI uses a dividend discount valuation model that incorporates beta in the derivation of risk-adjusted required rates of return on stocks. Until now, Emma has been using a five-year earnings and dividends per share growth rate of 15% and a beta estimate of 1.00 for Disney. Taking construction of the new theme parks into account, however, she has raised her growth rate and beta estimates to 25% and 1.15, respectively. The complete set of Emma’s current assumptions is:

a. Calculate the risk-adjusted required rate of return on Disney stock using Emma’s current beta assumption.

b. Using the results of part (a), Emma’s current assumptions, and DAI’s dividend iscount model, calculate the intrinsic, or fair, value of Disney stock at September 30, 1993.

c. After calculating the intrinsic value of Disney stock using her new assumptions and DAI’s dividend discount model, Emma finds that her recommendation for Disney should be changed from a “buy” to a “sell.” Explain how the construction of the new theme parks could have a negative impact on the valuation of Disney stock, despite Emma’s assumption of sharply higher growth rates (25%).

Answer the question in terms of the two ratios, and assume that there have been no extraordinary events affecting either company.

b. Using a constant-growth dividend discount model, Black estimated the value of New Soft to be $28 per share and the value of Capital Corp. to be $34 per share. Briefly discuss weaknesses of this dividend discount model and explain why this model may be less suitable for valuing NewSoft than for valuing Capital Corp.

c. Recommend and justify a more appropriate dividend discount model for valuing NewSoft’s common stock.

identify and explain three reasons why over an extended period of time value stock i 549816

“Growth” and “value” can be defined in several ways, but “growth” usually conveys the idea of a portfolio emphasizing or including only issues believed to possess above- average future rates of per-share earnings growth. Low current yield, high price-to-book ratios, and high price-to-earnings ratios are typical characteristics of such portfolios. “Value” usually conveys the idea of portfolios emphasizing or including only issues currently showing low price-to-book ratios, low price-to-earnings ratios, above average levels of dividend yield, and market prices believed to be below the issues’ intrinsic values.

a. Identify and explain three reasons why, over an extended period of time, value stock investing might outperform growth stock investing.

b. Explain why the outcome suggested in part (a) above should not be possible in a market widely regarded as being highly efficient

the stock of ngoro corporation is currently selling for 10 per share earnings per sh 549817

The stock of Ngoro Corporation is currently selling for $10 per share. Earnings per share in the coming year are expected to be $2. The company has a policy of paying out 50% of its earnings each year in dividends. The rest is retained and invested in projects that earn a 20% rate of return per year. This situation is expected to continue indefinitely. a. Assuming the current market price of the stock reflects its intrinsic value as computed using the constant-growth DDM, what rate of return do Ngoro’s investors require?

b. By how much does its value exceed what it would be if all earnings were paid as dividends and nothing were reinvested?

c. If Nogro were to cut its dividend payout ratio to 25%, what would happen to its stock price? What if Nogro eliminated the dividend?

chipset inc is an established computer chip firm with several profitable existing pr 549818

Chipset, Inc., is an established computer chip firm with several profitable existing products as well as some promising new products in development. The company earned $1 a share last year, and just paid out a dividend of $.50 per share. Investors believe the company plans to maintain its dividend payout ratio at 50%. ROE equals 20%. Everyone in the market expects this situation to persist indefinitely.

a. What is the market price of Chiptech stock? The required return for the computer chip industry is 15%, and the company has just gone ex-dividend (i.e., the next dividend will be paid a year from now, at t _ 1).

b. Suppose you discover that Chiptech’s competitor has developed a new chip that will eliminate Chiptech’s current technological advantage in this market. This new product, which will be ready to come to the market in two years, will force Chiptech to reduce the prices of its chips to remain competitive. This will decrease ROE to 15%, and, because of falling demand for its product, Chiptech will decrease the plowback ratio to .40. The plowback ratio will be decreased at the end of the second year, at t _ 2: The annual year-end dividend for the second year (paid at t _ 2) will be 60% of that year’s earnings. What is your estimate of Chiptech’s intrinsic value per share? (Hint: Carefully prepare a table of Chiptech’s earnings and dividends for each of the next three years. Pay close attention to the change in the payout ratio in t _ 2.)

c. No one else in the market perceives the threat to Chiptech’s market. In fact, you are confident that no one else will become aware of the change in Chiptech’s competitive status until the competitor firm publicly announces its discovery near the end of year 2. What will be the rate of return on Chiptech stock in the coming year (i.e., between t _ 0 and t _ 1)? In the second year (between t _ 1 and t _ 2)? The third year (between t _ 2 and t _ 3)? (Hint: Pay attention to when the market catches on to the new situation. A table of dividends and market prices over time might help.)

janet ludlow rsquo s firm requires all its analysts to use a two stage dividend disc 549820

Janet Ludlow’s firm requires all its analysts to use a two-stage dividend discount model (DDM) and the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to value stocks. Using the CAPM and DDM, Ludlow has valued QuickBrush Company at $63 per share. She now must value SmileWhite Corporation.

a. Calculate the required rate of return for SmileWhite using the information in the following table:

the digital electronic quotation system deqs corporation pays no cash dividends curr 549821

The Digital Electronic Quotation System (DEQS) Corporation pays no cash dividends currently and is not expected to for the next five years. Its latest EPS was $10, all of which was reinvested in the company. The firm’s expected ROE for the next five years is 20% per year, and during this time it is expected to continue to reinvest all of its earnings. Starting six years from now the firm’s ROE on new investments is expected to fall to 15%, and the company is expected to start paying out 40% of its earnings in cash dividends, which it will continue to do forever after. DEQS’s market capitalization rate is 15% per year.

a. What is your estimate of DEQS’s intrinsic value per share?

b. Assuming its current market price is equal to its intrinsic value, what do you expect to happen to its price over the next year? The year after?

c. What effect would it have on your estimate of DEQS’s intrinsic value if you expected DEQS to pay out only 20% of earnings starting in year 6?

the constant growth ddm will not produce a finite value if the dividend growth rate 549828

The following questions are from past CFA examinations.

a. The constant-growth DDM will not produce a finite value if the dividend growth rate is:

i. Above its historical average.

ii. Above the market capitalization rate.

iii. Below its historical average.

iv. Below the market capitalization rate.

b. According to the constant-growth DDM, a fall in the market capitalization rate will cause a stock’s intrinsic value to:

i. Decrease.

ii. Increase.

iii. Remain unchanged.

iv. Decrease or increase, depending on other factors.

c. You plan to buy a common stock and hold it for one year. You expect to receive both $1.50 in dividends and $26 from the sale of stock at the end of the year. If you wanted to earn a 15% return, what is the maximum price you would pay for the stock today?

d. In the dividend discount model, a factor not affecting the discount rate, k, is the:

i. Real risk-free rate.

ii. Risk premium for stocks.

iii. Return on assets.

iv. Expected inflation rate.

e. Ashare of stock is expected to pay a dividend of $1.00 one year from now and grow at 5% thereafter. In the context of a dividend discount model, the stock is correctly priced today at $10. According to the single-stage, constant-growth DDM, if the required return is 15%, what should be the value of the stock two years from now?

f. Astock is not expected to pay dividends until three years from now. The dividend is then expected to be $2.00 per share, the dividend payout ratio is expected to be 40%, and the return on equity is expected to be 15%. If the required rate of return is 12%, what should be the value of the stock today?

g. The constant-growth DDM would typically be most appropriate in valuing the stock of a:

i. New venture expected to retain all earnings for several years.

ii. Rapidly growing company.

iii. Moderate-growth, “mature” company.

iv. Company with valuable assets not yet generating profits.

h. Astock has a required return of 15%, a constant-growth rate of 10%, and a dividend payout ratio of 45%. The stock’s price–earnings ratio should be:

i. 3.

ii. 4.5.

iii. 9.

Cyber Tech Company, which operates a chain of 25 electronics supply stores, has just completed its fourth year of operations. The direct write-off method of recording bad debt expense has been used during the entire period. Because of substantial increases in sales volume and the amount of uncollectible accounts, the firm is considering changing to the allowance method. Information is requested as to the effect that an annual provision of ½% of sales would have had on the amount of bad debt expense reported for each of the past four years.

Credit sales and the year-end credit balances in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for the past four years are as follows:

Hugh Lopez, president of Dolphin Co., is concerned that the method used to account for and write off uncollectible receivables is unsatisfactory. He has asked for your advice in the analysis of past operations in this area and for recommendations for change.

1. Determine the amount of (a) the addition to Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and (b) the accounts written off for each of the four years.

2. a. Advise Hugh Lopez as to whether the estimate of ¼ of 1% of credit sales appears reasonable.

b. Assume that after discussing (a) with Hugh Lopez, he asked you what action might be taken to determine what the balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts should be at December 31, 2012, and what possible changes, if any, you might recommend in accounting for uncollectible receivables. How would you respond?

universal auto is a large multinational corporation headquartered in the united stat 549800

Universal Auto is a large multinational corporation headquartered in the United States. For segment reporting purposes, the company is engaged in two businesses: production of motor vehicles and information processing services. The motor vehicle business is by far the larger of Universal’s two segments. It consists mainly of domestic U.S. passenger car production, but it also includes small truck manufacturing operations in the United States and passenger car production in other countries. This segment of Universal has had weak operating results for the past several years, including a large loss in 1996. Although the company does not reveal the operating results of its domestic assenger car segments, that part of Universal’s business is generally believed to be primarily responsible for the weak performance of its motor vehicle segment. Idata, the information processing services segment of Universal, was started by Universal about 15 years ago. This business has shown strong, steady growth that has been entirely internal; no acquisitions have been made. An excerpt from a research report on Universal prepared by Paul Adams, a CFA candidate, states: “Based on our assumption that Universal will he able to increase prices significantly on U.S. passenger cars in 1997, we project a multibillion dollar profit improvement.”

a. Discuss the concept of an industrial life cycle by describing each of its four phases.

b. Identify where each of Universal’s two primary businesses—passenger cars and information processing—is in such a cycle.

c. Discuss how product pricing should differ between Universal’s two businesses, based on the location of each in the industrial life cycle.

Tel-Com Company, a telephone service and supply company, has just completed its fourth year of operations. The direct write-off method of recording bad debt expense has been used during the entire period. Because of substantial increases in sales volume and the amount of uncollectible accounts, the company is considering changing to the allowance method. Information is requested as to the effect that an annual provision of ¾% of sales would have had on the amount of bad debt expense reported for each of the past four years. It is also considered desirable to know what the balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts would have been at the end of each year. The following data have been obtained from the accounts:

how can sales clerks employed at meridian clothing use the store rsquo s return poli 549660

EX 8-3 Internal controls

Meridian Clothing is a retail store specializing in women’s clothing. The store has established a liberal return policy for the holiday season in order to encourage gift purchases. Any item purchased during November and December may be returned through January 31, with a receipt, for cash or exchange. If the customer does not have a receipt, cash will still be refunded for any item under $50. If the item is more than $50, a check is mailed to the customer. Whenever an item is returned, a store clerk completes a return slip, which the customer signs. The return slip is placed in a special box. The store manager visits the return counter approximately once every two hours to authorize the return slips. Clerks are instructed to place the returned merchandise on the proper rack on the selling floor as soon as possible. This year, returns at Meridian Clothing have reached an all-time high. There are a large number of returns under $50 without receipts.

a. How can sales clerks employed at Meridian Clothing use the store’s return policy to steal money from the cash register?

b. What internal control weaknesses do you see in the return policy that make cash thefts easier?

c. Would issuing a store credit in place of a cash refund for all merchandise returned without a receipt reduce the possibility of theft? List some advantages and disadvantages of issuing a store credit in place of a cash refund.

d. Assume that Meridian Clothing is committed to the current policy of issuing cash refunds without a receipt. What changes could be made in the store’s procedures regarding customer refunds in order to improve internal control?

EX 8-4 Internal controls for bank lending

Evergreen Bank provides loans to businesses in the community through its Commercial Lending Department. Small loans (less than $250,000) may be approved by an individual loan officer, while larger loans (greater than $250,000) must be approved by a board of loan officers. Once a loan is approved, the funds are made available to the loan applicant under agreed-upon terms. The president of Evergreen Bank has instituted a policy whereby he has the individual authority to approve loans up to $10,000,000. The president believes that this policy will allow flexibility to approve loans to valued clients much quicker than under the previous policy.

As an internal auditor of Evergreen Bank, how would you respond to this change in policy?

digit tech company a communications equipment manufacturer recently fell victim to a 549672

EX 8-15 Internal control of cash payments

Digit Tech Company, a communications equipment manufacturer, recently fell victim to a fraud scheme developed by one of its employees. To understand the scheme, it is necessary to review Digit Tech’s procedures for the purchase of services. The purchasing agent is responsible for ordering services (such as repairs to a photocopy machine or office cleaning) after receiving a service requisition from an authorized manager. However, since no tangible goods are delivered, a receiving report is not prepared. When the Accounting Department receives an invoice billing Digit Tech for a service call, the accounts payable clerk calls the manager who requested the service in order to verify that it was performed. The fraud scheme involves Loretta Trent, the manager of plant and facilities. Loretta arranged for her uncle’s company, Laser Systems, to be placed on Digit Tech’s approved vendor list. Loretta did not disclose the family relationship. On several occasions, Loretta would submit a requisition for services to be provided by Laser Systems. However, the service requested was really not needed, and it was never performed. Laser Systems would bill Digit Tech for the service and then split the cash payment with Loretta.

Explain what changes should be made to Digit Tech’s procedures for ordering and paying for services in order to prevent such occurrences in the future.

inventory ratios for dell and hp dell inc and hewlett packard development company l 549637

CP 7-4 Inventory ratios for Dell and HP Dell Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. (HP) are both manufacturers of computer equipment and peripherals. However, the two companies follow two different strategies. Dell follows primarily a build-to-order strategy, where the consumer orders the computer from a Web page. The order is then manufactured and shipped to the customer within days of the order. In contrast, HP follows a build-to-stock strategy, where the computer is first built for inventory, then sold from inventory to retailers, such as Best Buy. The two strategies can be seen in the difference between the inventory turnover and number of days’ sales in inventory ratios for the two companies. The following financial statement information is provided for Dell and HP for a recent fiscal year (in millions): Dell HP Inventory, beginning of period $1,180 $7,879 Inventory, end of period 867 6,128 Cost of goods sold 50,144 87,524 a.

joan whalen has recently been hired as the manager of jittery coffee shop jittery co 549659

EX 8-2 Internal controls

Joan Whalen has recently been hired as the manager of Jittery Coffee Shop. Jittery Coffee Shop is a national chain of franchised coffee shops. During her first month as store manager, Joan encountered the following internal control situations:

a. Since only one employee uses the cash register, that employee is responsible for counting the cash at the end of the shift and verifying that the cash in the drawer matches the amount of cash sales recorded by the cash register. Joan expects each cashier to balance the drawer to the penny every time—no exceptions.

b. Joan caught an employee putting a case of 400 single-serving tea bags in her car. Not wanting to create a scene, Joan smiled and said, “I don’t think you’re putting those tea bags on the right shelf. Don’t they belong inside the coffee shop?” The employee returned the tea bags to the stockroom.

c. Jittery Coffee Shop has one cash register. Prior to Joan’s joining the coffee shop, each employee working on a shift would take a customer order, accept payment, and then prepare the order. Joan made one employee on each shift responsible for taking orders and accepting the customer’s payment. Other employees prepare the orders.

State whether you agree or disagree with Joan’s method of handling each situation and explain your answer.

accounting question npv thank you 549511

Apnea Video Rental Store is considering the purchase of an almost new minivan to deliver and pick up video tapes from customers. The minivan will cost $95,000 and is expected to last 10 years. However, the minivans engine will need to be overhauled at a cost of $5,000 at the end of year 3. In addition, purchasing this minivan would require an immediate investment of $15,000 in working capital which would be replaced for investment elsewhere at the end of the 10 years. The minivan is expected to have a $10,000 salvage value at the end of 10 years. This delivery service is expected to generate net cash inflows of $20,000 per year in each of the 10 years. Apnea’s cost of capital is 9%. Calculate the NPV of this investment opportunity. Don’t use decimals in answer.

accg 399 discussion forum one normative theory how specified must a conceptual frame 549567

ACCG 399 Discussion Forum One Normative Theory: How specified must a conceptual framework be? At their joint meeting in October 2004, the IASB and the US FASB decided to add to their respective agendas a joint project to develop a common conceptual framework, based on both the existing IASB Framework and the FASB Conceptual Framework, that both Boards would use as a basis for their accounting standards. The two boards reached the following tentative decisions about the approach to the project: – The project should initially focus on concepts applicable to business entities in the private sector. Later, the boards should consider the applicability of those concepts to other sectors, beginning with not-for-profit organisations in the private sector. – The project should be divided into phases, with the initial focus being on achieving the convergence of the frameworks and improving particular aspects of the frameworks dealing with objectives, qualitative characteristics, elements, recognition, and measurement. Furthermore, as the frameworks converge and are improved, priority should be given to addressing issues that are likely to yield benefits to the boards in the short term, that is, cross-cutting issues that affect a number of their projects for new or revised standards. – The converged framework should be in the form of a single document. It should include a summary and a basis for conclusions. The project is being conducted in eight phases: A: Objectives and Qualitative Characteristics (completed), Phase B: Elements and Recognition, Phase C: Measurement, Phase D: Reporting Entity, Phase E: Presentation and Disclosure, Phase F: Purpose and Status, Phase G: Application to Not-for-profit Entities, Phase H: Remaining Issues (Deloitte, http://www.iasplus.com/agenda/framework.htm, last retrieved: August 23, 2012). In its last meeting concerning Phase C: Measurement in July 2010, the IASB discussed amongst other issues what the measurement chapter of the revised conceptual framework should accomplish. The Board was presented by staff with five alternatives with View A being the most basic specifications and each alternative thereafter, building onto the specifications of the previous alternative. ACCG 399 – Accounting in Context S1-2014 A Board member started the discussion with noting that the measurement chapter should not be neutral (view A), but should also not specify which assets and liabilities should be measured using a specific basis (view E). Most Board members were either supporting View B (discussing the relationship between qualitative characteristics and measurement bases on a conceptual level) or View C (expanding on view B by prescribing a hierarchy of measurement bases). One Board member was concerned that view C would ‘box in’ the Board with regards to future assets and liabilities and how they should be measured. Other Board members agreed that measurement should be based on principles and that the measurement chapter should not be too prescriptive. This was the main objection against view C (Deloitte, http://www.iasplus.com/agenda/framework-c.htm, last retrieved: August 23, 2012) Use these meeting notes as a starting point to discuss how specified a conceptual framework in the area of measurement rules should be. Some suggestions: • You may wish to review the following websites for an overview of the latest discussions about Phase C: Measurement: http://www.iasplus.com/agenda/framework-c.htm http://www.fasb.org/project/cf_phase-c.shtml • Then you may wish to review the related meeting materials, observer notes and minutes on: http://www.fasb.org/project/cf_materials&minutes.shtml • You should also review certain perspectives of normative accounting theories associated with measurement and use these to inform your critical judgement. Following the guidelines for posting supplied, your group should make a minimum of one contribution for this case study and this is due by 4.00pm, Friday 04 April 2014.

the accountant at canyon kites has always prepared a budget that is calculated using 549578

CANYON KITE MANUFACTURING CO.

The accountant at Canyon Kites has always prepared a budget that is calculated using only one estimated volume of sales. He has asked you to help him set up a spreadsheet that can be used for sensitivity analysis in the budgeting process. This year it appears that the company may not meet expectations, which could result in a loss. He is concerned that the company will incur a loss again next year and wants to develop a budget that will easily reflect changes in the assumptions. After gathering information about next year’s operations, he will provide information using a what-if sensitivity analysis. The following assumptions will be used to begin your analysis:

Direct materials per kite: Direct Labor: Hours Hrly Rate Cost/kite

Nylon $10 Assembly 0.5 $30 $15.00

Ribs $ 5 Packing 0.1 $15 $ 1.50

String $ 2

Inventory information: Beginning Target Ending

Direct Mat: Nylon $5,000 $7,000

Ribs 3,000 3,200

String 1,000 1,200

Finished Goods (units) 2,000 Kites 2,200 Kites

Finished Goods (cost) $97,850

Revenue assumptions: Selling Price Volume

$75.00 80,000

PART 1:

Create a spreadsheet with a data input box at the top that includes all relevant data. (Put a border around this data to separate). Set up each schedule with cell references to information in the data input box. Any changes made to information in this box should reflect through all of the schedules you create. As you proceed, more information will be given that you will need to add to the data input box, so leave space to add additional data.

  1. Prepare a revenue budget
  2. Prepare a production budget in units
  3. Prepare the direct materials usage budget and a direct materials purchases budget
  4. Prepare a direct labor budget (in hrs and cost)

In addition to the information given above, the following are estimated manufacturing overhead costs. Both fixed and variable overhead will be allocated based on the number of kites produced.

Estimates variable manufacturing overhead costs: Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead costs:

Supplies $160,250 Depreciation $211,728

Indirect Labor 200,650 Property Taxes 28,872

Maintenance 80,200 Insurance 67,368

Miscellaneous 40,100 Plant management 240,600

Total Variable OH $481,200 Benefits 336,840

Miscellaneous 76,992

Total Fixed OH $962,400

PART 2:

  1. Prepare a manufacturing overhead budget and determine variable and fixed overhead allocation rates using labor hours for fixed and units for variable.
  2. Prepare a schedule that calculates the unit costs of ending inventory in finished goods and then prepare the ending inventory budget.
  3. Prepare a cost of goods sold budget.

Adding to the information above, the following data includes costs collected in regards to support departments:

Support Department: Fixed Cost

Administration $1,034,580

Marketing 620,748

Distribution 310,374

Customer Service 103,458

Total SD Cost $2,069,160

PART 3:

  1. Prepare the support department costs budget
  2. Prepare a budgeted income statement (assume tax rate of 25%)
  3. Calculate break even in revenue and units

Lastly, the Company’s managers budget cash flows on a quarterly basis so they can plan short-term investments & borrowings. Kite sales are highest during the spring and summer. Sales are fairly even within each quarter, but vary across quarters as follows:

January – March 10% April – June 50%

July – September 30% October – December 10%

Accounts receivable at the end of the prior year, consisting of sales made during December, totaled $90,000. Payments from customers are usually received as follows:

Pay during the month goods are received 50%

Pay the next month 47%

Bad Debt 3%

The managers plan to maintain beginning inventory quantities during January and February, but plan to increase inventories to targeted levels by the end of March and maintain those levels throughout the rest of the year. The company pays its vendors 10 days after raw materials are received, therefore approximately two-thirds of all purchases are paid in the month of production and one-third paid the following month. Accounts Payable at the end of the prior year totaled $13,000. Employee wages and other production costs are paid during the month incurred. Property taxes are paid in two equal installments on March 31 and September 30, and insurance is paid annually on June 30. Support costs are paid evenly throughout the year. Estimated income tax payments are made at the end of each quarter based on 25% of total estimated taxes for the year.

In addition to customer receipts, the company expects to receive $10,000 in proceeds from the sale of equipment in January. The company also plans to purchase and pay for new equipment costing $50,000 during January.

The Company finances its short-term operations with a line of credit from the bank, which had a balance of $150,000 at the end of the prior year. The line of credit agreement requires the company maintain a minimum cash balance of $100,000. The company’s line of credit requires quarterly interest payments at an annual rate of 5.5% and is paid on the last day of the quarter.

PART 4:

  1. Prepare quarterly budgets for cash receipts, cash disbursements and short term financing.
  2. Was the company able to increase its cash reserves?
  3. What is the best use of cash for this firm?

will switching to a perpetual inventory system strengthen a4a hardware rsquo s contr 549607

EX 7-1 Control of inventories

A4A Hardware Store currently uses a periodic inventory system. Ray Ballard, the owner, is considering the purchase of a computer system that would make it feasible to switch to a perpetual inventory system.

Ray is unhappy with the periodic inventory system because it does not provide timely information on inventory levels. Ray has noticed on several occasions that the store runs out of good-selling items, while too many poor-selling items are on hand.

Ray is also concerned about lost sales while a physical inventory is being taken. A4A Hardware currently takes a physical inventory twice a year. To minimize distractions, the store is closed on the day inventory is taken. Ray believes that closing the store is the only way to get an accurate inventory count.

Will switching to a perpetual inventory system strengthen A4A Hardware’s control over inventory items? Will switching to a perpetual inventory system eliminate the need for a physical inventory count? Explain.

whenever lincoln receives a shipment of new inventory the items are taken directly t 549608

EX 7-2 Control of inventories

Lincoln Luggage Shop is a small retail establishment located in a large shopping mall. This shop has implemented the following procedures regarding inventory items:

a. Since the shop carries mostly high-quality, designer luggage, all inventory items are tagged with a control device that activates an alarm if a tagged item is removed from the store.

b. Since the display area of the store is limited, only a sample of each piece of luggage is kept on the selling floor. Whenever a customer selects a piece of luggage, the salesclerk gets the appropriate piece from the store’s stockroom. Since all salesclerks need access to the stockroom, it is not locked. The stockroom is adjacent to the break room used by all mall employees.

c. Whenever Lincoln receives a shipment of new inventory, the items are taken directly to the stockroom. Lincoln’s accountant uses the vendor’s invoice to record the amount of inventory received.

State whether each of these procedures is appropriate or inappropriate. If it is inappropriate, state why.

green has been an audit client of lh h for about 10 years it 549169

Green has been an audit client of LH&H for about 10 years. It is a private company in which the owner is very involved on a day-to-day basis. Materiality for the current year has been set at $50,000. Green’s year-end is December 31, and the audit for 2009 is essentially complete. The audit report is currently dated April 15, 2010, the same date that the file was reviewed by Don.

Only three issues have been identified as outstanding. The following is information regarding these issues that was obtained by the staff.

I. A legal letter was received indicating that an outstanding lawsuit against Green that arose in 2009 had been settled on April 10, 2010. Green will have to pay $125,000 plus costs. Following receipt of this letter, the lawsuit was discussed with the owner of Green and he said that they are not going to appeal the judgment. In previous discussions, Don had advised Green’s controller that the loss must be recorded and the liability accrued in the 2009 statements. Both Green’s controller and owner refused to make the adjustment, because they did not have enough time to adjust the financial statements.

2. The file included a note from Don that Green had requested we not send out accounts payable confirmations to two of the company’s major suppliers because of ongoing volume-rebate disputes with these suppliers.

3. Green has set up a receivable of $500,000 related to inventory destroyed and business interruption losses suffered as a result of a warehouse fire that occurred before year-end. No procedures have been performed on this amount.

you are a portfolio manager who has just been exposed to the possibilities of stock 546411

You are a portfolio manager who has just been exposed to the possibilities of stock index futures. Respond to the following situations.

(a) Assume that you have the resources to buy and hold the stocks in the S&P 500. You are given the following data. (Assume that today is January 1.)

Level of the S&P 500 index = 258.90

June S&P 500 futures contract = 260.15

Annualized Rate on T.Bill expiring June 26 (expiration date) = 6%

Annualized Dividend yield on S&P 500 stocks = 3%

Assume that dividends are paid out continuously over the year. Is there potential for arbitrage? How would you go about setting up the arbitrage?

(b) Assume now that you are known for your stock selection skills. You have 10,000 shares of Texaco in your portfolio (now selling for 38) and are extremely worried about the direction of the market until June. You would like to protect yourself against market risk by using the December S&P 500 futures contract (which is at 260.15). If Texaco”s beta is 0.8, how would you go about creating this protection?

The owner did not pay herself a salary last year, but you believe that you will have to pay $200,000 a year for a new chef. The restaurant is in stable growth and is expected to grow 5% a year for the next decade. You estimate the unlevered beta of publicly traded restaurants to be 0.80. The average debt to capital ratio for these firms is 30% and you believe that Cool Café will have to operate at close to this average. The riskfree rate is 6%, the market risk premium is 4% and the cost of debt is 7%.

a. Estimate the value of Cool Café

b. Now assume that you will see a drop off in revenues of 15% if Joanne Arapacio leaves the restaurant. Assuming that 70% of the current operating expenses are variable and that the remaining 30% is fixed, estimate the value Ms. Arapacio to the restaurant.

the franchise has revenues of 1 million and earnings before interest and taxes of 15 546361

Sick and tired of the investment banking grind, you decide to quit and buy a franchise for a fast-growing bagel chain in your town. You have been able to get information on what another franchise for the same chain is generating in revenues in the neighboring town.

a. The franchise has revenues of $1 million and earnings before interest and taxes of $150,000 last year but the owner did not assess a salary for himself. He does the accounting and oversees the bagel shop and you believe that hiring someone else to do what he does will cost you $50,000 annually.

b. The revenues and operating income are expected to grow 3% a year in perpetuity.

c. You expect to pay 35% of your income in taxes and use all of your investment savings to buy the shop. The unlevered beta for franchise food chains is 0.80.

d. The owner has a bank loan outstanding of $300,000 and the book value of equity in the business is $700,000. However, the average market debt to capital ratio of publicly traded restaurants is 20% and the average pre-tax cost of debt for restaurants is 8%.

e. The riskless rate is 5% and the market risk premium is 4%. Estimate the value of the bagel shop to you.

the practice generated 800 000 in revenues last year and these revenues are expected 546363

how would you explain the difference between the two values 546367

You are examining the financial viability of investing in some abandoned copper mines in Chile, which still have significant copper deposits in them. A geologist survey suggests that there might be 10 million pounds of copper in the mines still and that the cost of opening up the mines will be $3 million (in present value dollars). The capacity output rate is 400,000 pounds a year and the price of copper is expected to increase 4% a year. The Chilean Government is willing to grant a twenty-five year lease on the mine. The average production cost is expected to be 40 cents a pound and the current price per pound of copper is 85 cents. (The production cost is expected to grow 3% a year, once initiated.) The annualized standard deviation in copper prices is 25% and the twenty-five year bond rate is 7%.

a. Estimate the value of the mine using traditional capital budgeting techniques.

b. Estimate the value of the mine based upon an option pricing model.

c. How would you explain the difference between the two values?

how sensitive is this value estimate to the variance in project cash flows what broa 546369

Cyclops Inc, a high technology company specializing in state-of-the-art visual technology, is considering going public. While the company has no revenues or profits yet on its products, it has a ten-year patent to a product that will enable contact lens users to get no-maintenance lens that will last for years. While the product is technically viable, it is exorbitantly expensive to manufacture and the potential market for it will be relatively small initially. (A cash flow analysis of the project suggests that the present value of the cash inflows on the project, if adopted now, would be $250 million, while the cost of the project will be $500 million.) The technology is rapidly evolving and a simulation of alternative scenarios yields a wide range of present values, with an annualized standard deviation of 60%. To move towards this adoption, the company will have to continue to invest $10 million a year in research. The ten-year bond rate is 6%.

a. Estimate the value of this company.

b. How sensitive is this value estimate to the variance in project cash flows? What broader lessons would you draw from this analysis?

based upon part a would you recommend that skates use its excess debt capacity 546371

You are analyzing Skates Inc., a firm that manufactures skateboards. The firm is currently unlevered and has a cost of equity of 12%. You estimate that Skates would have a cost of capital of 11% at its optimal debt ratio of 40%. The management, however, insists that it will not borrow the money because of the value of maintaining financial flexibility and they have provided you with the following information.

  • Over the last 10 years, reinvestments (net capital expenditures + working capital investments) have amounted to 10% of firm value, on an annual basis. The standard deviation in this reinvestment has been 0.30.
  • The firm has traditionally used only internal funding (net income + depreciation) to meet these needs and these have amounted to 6% of firm value.
  • In the most recent year, the firm earned $180 million in net income on a book value of equity of $1 billion and it expects to earn these excess returns on new investments in the future.
  • The riskless rate is 5%.

a. Estimate the value of financial flexibility as a percent of firm value, on an annual basis.

b. Based upon part a, would you recommend that Skates use its excess debt capacity?

would you advice disney to enter into the joint venture 546372

Disney is considering entering into a joint venture to build condominiums in Vail, Colorado, with a local real estate developer. The development is expected to cost $1 billion overall and, based on Disney’s estimate of the cash flows, generate $900 million in present value cash flows. Disney will have a 40% share of the joint venture (requiring it to put up $400 million of the initial investment and entitling it to 40% of the cash flows) but it will have the right to sell its share of the venture back to the developer for $300 million.

a. If the standard deviation in real estate values in Vail is 30% and the riskless rate is 5%, estimate the value of the abandonment option to Disney.

b. Would you advice Disney to enter into the joint venture?

c. If you were advising the developer, how much would he need to generate in present value cashflows from the investment to make this a good investment?

under what conditions will the expansion potential have option value 546373

Quality Wireless is considering making an investment in China. While it knows that the investment will cost $1 billion and generate only $800 million in cash flows (in present value terms), the proponents of expansion are arguing that the potential market is huge and that Quality should go ahead with its investment.

a. Under what conditions will the expansion potential have option value?

b. Assume now that there is an option value to expansion that exactly offsets the negative net present value on the initial investment. If the cost of the subsequent expansion in 5 years is $2.5 billion, what is your current estimate of the present value of the cash flows from expansion? (You can assume that the standard deviation in the present value of the cashflows is 25% and that the riskless rate is 6%.)

estimate the net present value of the initial investment 546374

Reliable Machinery Inc. is considering expanding its operations in Thailand. The initial analysis of the projects yields the following results.

  • The project is expected to generate $85 million in after-tax cash flows every year for the next 10 years.
  • The initial investment in the project is expected to be $750 million.
  • The cost of capital for the project is 12%. If the project generates much higher cash flows than anticipated, you will have the exclusive right for the next 10 years (from a manufacturing license) to expand operations into the rest of South East Asia. A current analysis suggests the following about the expansion opportunity.
  • The expansion will cost $2 billion (in current dollars).
  • The expansion is expected to generate $150 million in after tax cash flows each year for 15 years. There is substantial uncertainty about these cash flows and the standard deviation in the present value is 40%.
  • The cost of capital for this investment is expected to be 12% as well. The riskfree rate is 6.5%.

a. Estimate the net present value of the initial investment.

b. Estimate the value of the expansion option.

equity can be viewed as an option because equity investors have limited liability li 546375

Designate the following statements as true or false.

a. Equity can be viewed as an option because equity investors have limited liability (limited to their equity investment in the firm).

b. Equity investors will sometimes take bad projects (with negative net present value) because they can add to the value of the firm.

c. Investing in a good project (with positive NPV) — which is less risky than the average risk of the firm – can negatively impact equity investors.

d. The value of equity in a firm is an increasing function of the duration of the debt in the firm (i.e., equity will be more valuable in a firm with longer term debt than an otherwise similar firm with short term debt).

e. In a merger in which two risky firms merge and do not borrow more money, equity can become less valuable because existing debt will become less risky.

what effect will the cost cutting have on value 546381

Universal Health Care (UHC) is a company whose stock price has declined by 40% in the last year. In the current year, UHC earned $300 million in pre-tax operating income on revenues of $10 billion. The new CEO of the firm has proposed cost-cutting measures she anticipates will save the firm $100 million in expenses, without any effect on revenues. Assume the firm is growing at a stable rate of 5% a year and its cost of capital is 10%; neither number is expected to change as a consequence of the cost cutting. The firm’s tax rate is 40%. (You can assume that the firm reinvests $100 million each year and that this reinvestment will not change as the firm cuts costs.)

  • What effect will the cost cutting have on value?
  • What effect will the cost cutting have on value, if the expected growth rate will drop to 4.5% as a consequence? (Some of the costs cut were designed to generate future growth)

Coca Cola is considered to have one of the most valuable brand names in the world. The firm has an after-tax operating margin of 20% on revenues of $25 billion. The capital invested in the firm is $10 billion. In addition, Coca Cola reinvests 50% of its after-tax operating earnings.

a. Estimate the expected growth in operating earnings, assuming Coca Cola can sustain these values for the foreseeable future.

b. Assume generic soft drink manufacturers have after-tax operating margins of only 7.5%. If Coca Cola maintains its existing reinvestment rate but loses its brand name value, estimate the expected growth rate in operating earning. (You can assume that, with the loss in brand name value, Coca Cola’s operating margins would drop to 7.5%, as well.)

estimate the value of the firm assuming it does not embark on the advertising campai 546388

BioMask Genetics is a biotechnology firm with only one patent to its name. The after tax operating earnings in the current year is $100 million and the firm has no reinvestment needs. The patent will expire in 3 years and the firm will have a 15% growth rate in earnings during that period. After year 3, operating earnings are expected to remain constant forever. The firm’s management is considering an advertising plan designed to build up the brand name of its patented product. The advertising campaign will cost $50 million (pre-tax) a year over the next 3 years; the firm’s tax rate is 40%. The firm believes this campaign will allow it to maintain a 15% growth rate for 10 years, as the brand name compensates for the loss of the patent protection. After year 10, the operating earnings are expected to remain constant forever. The firm has a cost of capital of 10%.

a. Estimate the value of the firm, assuming it does not embark on the advertising campaign.

b. Estimate the value of the firm, with the advertising campaign.

General Motors Corporation reported a deficit per share in 1993 of $4.85, following losses in the two earlier years (The average earnings per share is negative.) The company had assets, with a book value of $25 billion, and spent almost $7 billion on capital expenditures in 1993, which was partially offset by a depreciation charge of $6 billion. The firm had $19 billion in debt outstanding, on which it paid interest expenses of $1.4 billion. It intends to maintain a debt ratio (D/(D+E)) of 50%. The working capital requirements of the firm are negligible and the stock has a beta of 1.10. In the last normal period of operations for the firm between 1986 and 1989, the firm earned an average return on assets of 12%.

• The market rents in the building were expected to average $15.00 per square foot in the current year based upon average rents in the surrounding buildings.

• The market rents were assumed to grow 5% a year for five years and at 3% a year forever afterwards.

• The variable operating expenses were assumed to be $3.00 per square foot and are expected to grow at the same rate as rents. The fixed operating expense in 1994 amounted to $300,000 and was expected to grow at 3% forever.

• The real estate taxes are expected to amount to $300,000 in the first year and grow at 3% a year after that. It is assumed that all tenants will pay their pro rate share of increases in real estate taxes that exceed 3% a year.

• The tax rate on income was assumed to be 42%.

The cost of borrowing was assumed to be 8.25%, pre-tax. It was also assumed that the building would be financed with 30% equity and 70% debt.

how would you explain the difference between the two models and which one would you 546284

Kimberly-Clark, a household product manufacturer, reported earnings per share of $3.20 in 1993 and paid dividends per share of $1.70 in that year. The firm reported depreciation of $315 million in 1993 and capital expenditures of $475 million. (There were 160 million shares outstanding, trading at $51 per share.) This ratio of capital expenditures to depreciation is expected to be maintained in the long term. The working capital needs are negligible. Kimberly-Clark had debt outstanding of $1.6 billion andi ntends to maintain its current financing mix (of debt and equity) to finance future investment needs. The firm is in steady state and earnings are expected to grow 7% ay ear. The stock had a beta of 1.05. (The treasury bond rate is 6.25%.)

Ecolab Inc. sells chemicals and systems for cleaning, sanitizing and maintenance. It reported earnings per share of $2.35 in 1993 and expected earnings growth of 15.5% a year from 1994 to 1998 and 6% a year after that. The capital expenditure per share was $2.25 and depreciation was $1.125 per share in 1 93. Both are expected to grow at the same rate as earnings from 1994 to 1998. Working capital is expected to remain at 5% of revenues and revenues, which were $1,000 million in 1993, are expected to increase 6% a year from 1994 to 1998, and 4% a year after that. The firm currently has a debt ratio

(D/(D+E)) of 5%, but plans to finance future investment needs (including working capital investments) using a debt ratio of 20%. The stock is expected to have a beta of 1.00 for the period of the analysis and the treasury bond rate is 6.50%. (There are 63 million shares outstanding)

a. Assuming that capital expenditures and depreciation offset each other after 1998, estimate the value per share.

b. Assuming that capital expenditures continue to be 200% of depreciation even after 1998, estimate the value per share.

c. What would the value per share have been, if the firm had continued to finance new investments with its old financing mix (5%)? Is it fair to use the same beta for thisa nalysis?

Dionex Corporation, a leader in the development and manufacture of ion chromog raphy systems (used to identify contaminants in electronic devices), reported earnings per share of $2.02 in 1993 and paid no dividends. These earnings are expected to grow 14% a year for five years (1994 to 1998) and 7% a year after that. The firm reported depreciation of $2 million in 1993 and capital spending of $4.20 million, and had 7 million shares outstanding. The working capital is expected to remain at 50% of revenues, which were $106 million in 1993, and are expected to grow 6% a year from 1994 to 1998 and 4% a year after that. The firm is expected to finance 10% of its capital expenditures and working capital needs with debt. Dionex had a beta of 1.20 in 1993, and this beta is expected to drop to 1.10 after 1998. (The treasury bond rate is 7%)

a. Estimate the expected free cash flow to equity from 1994 to 1998, assuming that capital expenditures and depreciation grow at the same rate as earnings.

b. Estimate the terminal price per share (at the end of 1998). Stable firms in this industry have capital expenditures which are 150% of revenues and maintain working capital at 25% of revenues.

Biomet Inc. designs, manufactures and markets reconstructive and trauma devices and reported earnings per share of $0.56 in 1993, on which it paid no dividends (It had revenues per share in 1993 of $2.91). It had capital expenditures of $0.13 per share in 1993 and depreciation in the same year of $0.08 per share. The working capital was 60% of revenues in 1993 and will remain at that level from 1994 to 1998, while earnings and revenues are expected to grow 17% a year. Thee arnings growth rate is expected to decline linearly over the following five years to a rate of 5% in 2003. During the high growth and transition periods, capital spending and depreciation are expected to grow at the same rate as earnings, but are expected to offset each other when the firm reaches steady state. Working capital is expected to drop from 60% of revenues during the 1994-1998 period to 30% of revenues after 2003. The firm has no debt currently, but plans to finance 10% of its net capital investment and working capital requirements with debt.

The stock is expected to have a beta of 1.45 for the high growth period (1994-1998) and it is expected to decline to 1.10 by the time the firm goes into steady state (in 2003). The treasury bond rate is 7%.

Union Pacific Railroad reported net income of $770 million in 1993, after interest expenses of $320 million. (The corporate tax rate was 36%.) It reported depreciation of $960 million in that year, and capital spending was $1.2 billion. The firm also had $4 billion in debt outstanding on the books, rated AA (carrying a yield to maturity of 8%), trading at par (up from $3.8 billion at the end of 1992). The beta of the stock is 1.05, and there were 200 million shares outstanding (trading at $60 per share), with a book value of $5 billion. Union Pacific paid 40% of its earnings as dividends and working capital requirements are negligible. (The treasury bond rate is 7%.)

Lockheed Corporation, one of the largest defense contractors in the US, reported EBITDA of $1290 million in 1993, prior to interest expenses of $215 million and depreciation charges of $400 million. Capital Expenditures in 1993 amounted to $450 million and working capital was 7% of revenues (which were $13,500 million). The firm had debt outstanding of $3.068 billion (in book value terms), trading at a market value of $3.2 billion and yielding a pre-tax interest rate of 8%. There were 62 million shares outstanding trading at $64 per share and the most recent beta is 1.10. The tax rate for the firm is 40%. (The treasury bond rate is 7%.) The firm expects revenues, earnings, capital expenditures and depreciation to grow at 9.5% a year from 1994 to 1998, after which the growth rate is expected to drop to 4%. (Capital spending will offset depreciation in the steady state period.) The company also plans to lower its debt/equity ratio to 50% for the steady state (which will result in the pre-tax interest rate dropping to 7.5%).

b. Estimate the value of the equity in the firm, and the value per share.

why might an acquirer pay more than this estimated value for the division 546292

In the face of disappointing earnings results and increasingly assertive institutional stockholders, Eastman Kodak was considering a major restructuring in 1993. As part of this restructuring, it was considering the sale of its health division, which earned $560 million in earnings before interest and taxes in 1993, on revenues of $5.285 billion. The expected growth in earnings was expected to moderate to 6% between 1994 and 1998, and to 4% after that. Capital expenditures in the health division amounted to $420 million in 1993, while depreciation was $350 million. Both are expected to grow 4% a year in the long term. Working capital requirements are negligible. The average beta of firms competing with Eastman Kodak”s health division is 1.15. While Eastman Kodak has a debt ratio (D/(D+E)) of 50%, the health division can sustain a debt ratio (D/(D+E)) of only 20%, which is similar to the average debt ratio of firms competing in the health sector. At this level of debt, the health division can expect to pay 7.5% on its debt, before taxes. (The tax rate is 40% and the treasury bond rate is 7%.)

The return on equity is expected to drop to 15% in the stable growth phase. The dividend payout ratio is expected to remain at the current level from 1993 to 1997. The stock has a beta of 1.10, which is not expected to change. The treasury bond rate is 7%.

a. Estimate the PE ratio for International Flavors, based upon fundamentals.

b. Estimate how much of this PE ratio can be ascribed to the extraordinary growth in earnings that the firm expects to have between 1993 and 1997.

estimate how much higher the pe ratio would have been if it had been able to maintai 546308

Cracker Barrel, which operates restaurants and gift shops, reported dramatic growth in earnings and revenues between 1983 and 1992. During this period, earnings grew from $0.08 per share in 1983 to $0.78 per share in 1993. The dividends paid in 1993 amounted to only $0.02 per share. The earnings growth rate was expected to ease to 15% a year from 1994 to 1998 and to 6% a year after that. The payout ratio is expected to increase to 10% from 1994 to 1998 and to 50% after that. The beta of the stock is currently 1.55, but it is expected to decline to 1.25 for the 1994-98 time period and to 1.10 after that. The treasury bond rate is 7%.

a. Estimate the PE ratio for Cracker Barrel.

b. Estimate how much higher the PE ratio would have been, if it had been able to maintain the growth rate in earnings that it had posted between 1983 and 1993. (Assume that the dividend payout ratios are unaffected.)

c. Now assume that disappointing earnings reports in the near future lower the expected growth rate between 1994 and 1998 to 10%. Estimate the PE ratio. (Again, assume that the dividend payout ratio is unaffected.)

c. Using a regression, control for differences across firms on risk, growth and payout. Specify how you would use this regression to spot under and over valued stocks. What are the limitations of this approach?

what would some of your concerns be in using this regression in valuation 546311

The following was the result of a regression of PE ratios on growth rates, betas and payout ratios, for stocks listed on the Value Line Database, in April 1993.

PE = 18.69 + 0.0695 GROWTH – 0.5082 BETA – 0.4262 PAYOUT R2 =0.35

Thus, a stock with an earnings growth rate of 20%, a beta of 1.15 and a payout ratio of 40%, would have had an expected PE ratio of:

PE = 18.69 + 0.0695 * 20 – 0.5082 (1.15) – 0.4262 * 0.40 = 19.33[NOTE: Is it 20 or 0.20?]

You are attempting to value a private firm, with the following characteristics:

(a) The firm had net profits of $10 million. It did not pay dividends, but had depreciation allowances of $5 million and capital expenditures of $12 million, in the most recent year. Working capital requirements were negligible.

(b) The earnings had grown 25% over the previous five years and are expected to grow at the same rate over the next five years.

(c) The average beta of publicly traded firms, in the same line of business, is 1.15, and the average debt/equity ratio of these firms is 25%. The tax rate is 40%. The private firm is an all-equity financed firm, with no debt.

a. Estimate the appropriate PE ratio for this private firm, using the regression.

b. What would some of your concerns be, in using this regression in valuation?

how sensitive is the price book value ratio to estimates of growth during the high g 546315

United Healthcare, a health maintenance organization, is expected to have earnings growth of 30% for the next five years and 6% after that. The dividend payout ratio will be only 10% during the high growth phase, but will increase to 60% in steady state. The return on equity was 21% in the most recent time period. The stock has a beta of 1.65 currently, but the beta is expected to drop to 1.10 in steady state. (The treasury bond rate is 7.25%.)

(a) Estimate the price/book value ratio for United Healthcare, given the inputs above.

(b) How sensitive is the price/book value ratio to estimates of growth during the high growth period?

(c) United Healthcare trades at a price/book value ratio of 7.00. How long would extraordinary growth have to last (at a 30% annual rate) to justify this PBV ratio.

assuming the return on equity and dividend payout ratio continue at current levels f 546316

Johnson and Johnson, a leading manufacturer of health care products, had a return on equity of 31.5% in 1993 and paid out 37% of its earnings as dividends. The stock had a beta of 1.25. (The treasury bond rate is 6%.) The extraordinary growth is expected to last for ten years, after which the growth rate is expected to drop to 6% and the return on equity to 15%. (The beta will move to 1.)

a. Assuming the return on equity and dividend payout ratio continue at current levels for the high growth period, estimate the PBV ratio for Johnson and Johnson.

b. If health care reform passes, it is believed that Johnson and Johnson”s return on equity will drop to 20% for the high growth phase. If they choose to maintain their existing dividend payout ratio, estimate the new PBV ratio for Johnson and Johnson.

(You can assume that the inputs for the steady state period are unaffected.)

assume that you have also run a sector regression on a company and estimated a price 546317

Assume that you have done a regression of PBV ratios for all firms on the New York Stock Exchange and arrived at the following result.

PBV = 0.88 +0.82 PAYOUT +7.79 GROWTH -0.41 BETA + 13.81 ROE{R2=0.65}

where,

Payout = Dividend Payout ratio during most recent period

Beta = Beta of the stock in most current period

Growth = Projected Growth rate in Earnings over next five years

To illustrate, a firm with a payout ratio of 40%, a beta of 1.25, a ROE of 25% and expected growth rate of 15%, would have had a price/book value ratio of:

PBV = 0.88 +0.82 (0.4) +7.79 (0.15) – 0.41 (1.25)+ 13.81 (0.25) = 5.3165

a. What, if any, use would you put the R squared of the regression to?

b. Assume that you have also run a sector regression on a company and estimated a price to book ratio based upon that regression. Why might your result from the market regression yield a different result from the sector regression?

estimate the price sales ratio based upon 1992 profit margins and expected growth 546321

Tambrands, a leading producer of tampons, reported net income of $122 million on revenues of $684 million in 1992. Earnings growth was anticipated to be 11% over the next five years, after which it was expected to be 6%. The firm paid out 45% of its earnings as dividends in 1992 and this payout ratio was expected to increase to 60% during the stable period. The beta of the stock was 1.00. During the course of 1993, erosion of brand loyalty and increasing competition for generic brands led to a drop in net income to $100 million on revenues of $700 million. The sales/book value ratio was comparable to 1992 levels.

(The treasury bond rate in 1992 and 1993 was 7%.)

a. Estimate the price/sales ratio, based upon 1992 profit margins and expected growth.

b. Estimate the price/sales ratio, based upon 1993 profit margins and expected growth (Assume that the extraordinary growth period remains 5 years, but that the growth rate will be impacted by the lower margins.)
