Topic 1: Investments

B1–44 (Concluded) c. Under the equity method, the investor will record its proportionate share of the net increase (or decrease) of the book value of the investee resulting from earnings and dividend distributions. The fair value method uses market price information to value the investment in the investee. These two methods result in different valuations because the equity method is based on book accounting while the fair value approach uses market information. The two methods need not be related to each other over time. While changes in book value can influence market prices, many other variables can influence the market price of a stock.

B1–45 The Raven Company investment is accounted for under the equity method. Because there were no purchases or sales of Raven Company stock, a dividend of $8 million must have been received. As shown in the following computation, this would explain how the ending balance of the investment account went from $264 to $281 million, with $25 million in equity earnings. Because the investment is accounted for under the equity method, the fair value is not used for valuation purposes. (in millions) Investment in Raven Company stock, December 31, 20Y5……………………… Plus equity earnings in Raven Company…………………………………………… Less dividends received………………………………………………………………… Investment in Raven Company stock, December 31, 20Y6………………………

B1–46 Consolidated financial statements are more relevant and useful to external stakeholders because the parent company, in substance, controls the subsidiary. In other words, the parent and subsidiary companies are considered one economic entity. B1–47 Two principles used in preparing consolidated financial statements are (1) the effects of any intercompany, parent-subsidiary transactions are eliminated and (2) the parent’s investment account is offset (eliminated) against the subsidiary’s equity accounts. B1–48 By their very nature, intercompany transactions affect the parent and subsidiary accounts. This results in reciprocal account balances. These reciprocal account balances must be eliminated in preparing consolidated financial statements since the parent and subsidiary are considered one economic entity. For example, the consolidated entity cannot owe itself money or sell itself merchandise. B1-18 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

Since this is an intercompany sale, $80,000 of sales must be eliminated. When Paley Corporation sold the merchandise to another company for $110,000, Paley recorded a cost of goods sold of $80,000. However, the merchandise cost the consolidated company only $45,000, which is the original cost to purchase the merchandise by Sims. By eliminating $80,000 sales and cost of goods sold, the consolidated company will report sales of this merchandise of $110,000 and related cost of goods sold of $45,000.

B1–53 (Concluded) b.

Intercompany sales of $80,000 recorded by Sims Enterprises and the related inventory of $80,000 recorded by Paley Corporation should be eliminated. In addition, cost of goods sold of $45,000 recorded by Sims should be eliminated, and inventory should be increased by $45,000. The result of these eliminations is that the consolidated financial statements will reflect no intercompany sales and the merchandise will still be shown in inventory as $45,000.

c.

Interest revenue of $15,000 recorded by Paley Corporation and the related interest expense recorded by Sims Enterprises should be eliminated. Since Sims paid the note payable at its maturity in 20Y2, no elimination is necessary for the note payable by Sims and the related note receivable by Paley Corporation.

Topic 4: Variable Costing

B4–5 (Concluded) c.

The difference between the absorption and variable costing operating income of $100,000 ($2,830,000 – $2,730,000) can be explained as follows: 2,500 Increase in inventory……………………………………………………………… $40 × Fixed factory overhead per unit……………………………………………… × Difference in operating income………………………………………………… $100,000 Under the absorption costing concept, the fixed factory overhead cost included in the cost of goods sold is matched with the revenues. As a result, 2,500 units that were produced but unsold (inventory) include fixed factory overhead cost of $100,000, which is not included in the cost of goods sold. Under variable costing, all of the fixed factory overhead cost is deducted in the period in which it is incurred, regardless of the amount of inventory change. Thus, when inventory increases, the absorption costing income statement will have a higher operating income than will the variable costing income statement.

The difference between the absorption and variable costing operating income of $520,000 ($26,655,000 – $26,135,000) can be explained as follows: Beginning inventory……………………………………………………………… Fixed manufacturing cost per unit in January……………………………… Difference in operating income…………………………………………………

20,000 × $26.00 $520,000

Under the absorption costing concept, the fixed manufacturing cost included in the cost of goods sold is matched with the revenues. As a result, 20,000 units that were produced but unsold in January (beginning inventory February 1) include fixed manufacturing cost, which is included in the cost of goods sold for February. Under variable costing, all of the fixed manufacturing cost is deducted in the period in which it is incurred, regardless of the amount of inventory change. Thus, when inventory decreases, the absorption costing income statement will have a lower operating income than will the variable costing income statement. B4-5 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

These would not be fixed costs of the current period. Thus, the total fixed costs of products sold on the absorption costing income statement would be higher, and operating income would be lower.

Topic 4: Variable Costing

B4–11 (Concluded) b. The operating income under the variable costing concept will not be the same as the operating income under the absorption costing concept when the inventories either increase or decrease during the year. In this case, Caterpillar’s inventory increased, meaning it sold less than it manufactured. As a result, the operating income under the variable costing concept will be less than the operating income under the absorption costing concept. The reason is because the variable costing concept will deduct the fixed costs in the period that they are incurred, regardless of changes in inventory balances. In contrast, absorption costing will match costs with sales by allocating the fixed costs to the beginning and ending inventories. When units sold are less than units manufactured (when inventories increase), fixed costs are allocated to ending inventory in determining cost of goods sold under absorption costing. Thus, less fixed costs will be included in cost of goods sold than were actually incurred during the period. This will result in a higher operating income than would be reported under the variable costing concept. The difference between the operating income under the two concepts can be shown as follows (rounded): Fixed cost portion of January 1 inventory (30% × $11,266)*…………………… Less fixed cost portion of December 31 inventory (30% × $11,402)*………… Difference in operating income………………………………………………………

$18 30 2 $50

** Variable selling and administrative expenses are constant with constant sales levels. b.

If 30,000 units rather than 25,000 units are manufactured, the increase in operating income of $50,000 ($225,000 – $175,000) under absorption costing is caused by the allocation of $300,000 of fixed factory overhead cost over a larger number of units. If 30,000 units are manufactured, the fixed factory overhead cost is $12 per unit ($300,000 ÷ 25,000) compared to $10 per unit ($300,000 ÷ 30,000) if 30,000 units are manufactured. Thus, the cost of goods sold is $50,000 less by the amount of $2 per unit ($12 – $10) times the number of units sold, or $2 × 25,000 units = $50,000. The $50,000 difference can also be explained by the amount of fixed factory overhead cost included in the ending inventory if the additional 5,000 units are manufactured ($10 per unit × 5,000 units).

MEMO To: Randi Wilkes, Vice President of Production The Western Region plant has experienced a budget overrun, while the Eastern and Central region plants have experienced a budget surplus. The budget of the Western Region plant reveals that the Chip Fabrication Department caused the majority of the budget overrun. The budget for the Chip Fabrication Department indicates that the budget overrun was caused by a combination of budget overruns in wages, power and light, and maintenance that exceeded a budget surplus in materials. The supervisor of the Chip Fabrication Department should investigate the reasons for the budget overruns in wages, power and light, and maintenance. It is possible that all three of these budget overruns have the same cause, such as a need for unplanned overtime or weekend work to meet schedules.

The support department allocations are determined by multiplying the support department allocation rate by the cost driver for each division. c.

Residential’s support department allocations are higher than the other two divisions because Residential is a heavy user of support department services. Residential has many employees on a weekly payroll, which translates into a larger number of payroll transactions. This may be because residential jobs are less productive per labor hour compared to larger commercial and government contract jobs. In addition, Residential uses purchasing services more than the other two divisions. This may be because the division has many different smaller jobs requiring frequent purchase transactions.

Program B:

6 + 6 + 7 + 4 + 6 = 29 mistakes 29 ÷ 5 chefs = 5.8 mistakes per chef

After calculating the performance metrics, it is clear that the restaurant should implement Program B moving forward, because it required fewer total training hours per chef and yielded fewer mistakes per chef.

Training employees better and improving employee satisfaction can both be expected to improve inventory management and reduce delivery time. They will also likely help to improve customer service in general. Improving inventory management can be expected to improve customer service as it will help with order filling times. In addition, reducing delivery time will directly improve customer service. Improving customer service will increase profits by increasing sales.

CHAPTER 2 (Concluded) 2. Revenues increased by 19.1% in 2021. Total expenses increased by 11.3%. Cost of sales increased by 16.1%, and operating overhead expense increased by 4.0%. This was offset by a decrease in demand creation expense of 13.3%. Income tax expense increased by 168.4%. Since the increase in expenses of 11.3% was less than the increase in revenues of 19.1%, net income increased by 125.6%. Overall, the 2021 results improved compared to 2020. Much of this increase is attributed to the economic recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, revenue growth in 2020 was impacted by the fact that during the final 3 months of the 2020 fiscal year, the majority of stores were closed for approximately 8 weeks. However, in 2021, the majority of the stores were open for the entire year.

2. The vertical analysis indicates that net income increased 6.1% from 6.8% to 12.9% of total revenues. This is equal to the decrease in total expenses, which decreased from 93.2% to 87.1% of total revenues. All of the expenses decreased except for interest expense and income tax expense. The largest decrease in expenses on a percentage basis was operating overhead expense, which decreased by 3.2% from 25.5% to 22.3%. Overall, Nike’s operations improved from 2020 to 2021 as a result of increasing revenues, decreasing total expenses, and increasing profitability. Much of this improvement can be attributed to the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, which not only led to increased revenues but also decreased overhead costs as a percentage of revenue.

Sales of footwear, apparel, and equipment are recognized when control has passed to the customer. For retail customers, this occurs at the time of sale. For online transactions, this occurs when the goods are shipped to customers. (from Note 1 “Revenue Recognition” to the financial statements)

g. Possible answers include: Prepaid Expenses, Accrued Liabilities, Income Taxes Payable, Property and Equipment (Depreciation Expense) h. For 2021: Nike’s net income (revenues and expenses) has a net credit balance of $5,727 million. Closing revenues and expenses will require a credit entry to Retained Earnings of $5,727 million. i.

Nike’s net income differs from cash flows from operations due to various noncash items that appear in income (e.g., depreciation expense, amortization expense) as well as changes in current assets and liabilities. The largest increase is in accounts receivable of $1,606 million, which represents credit sales that have not yet been collected in cash.

2. Nike’s fiscal year-end is May 31. Fiscal years other than December 31 are usually selected by corporations due to the seasonal nature of the business. Many corporations select a fiscal year that ends when business activities have reached the lowest point in the annual operating cycle.

These ratios indicate a decrease in the effectiveness in the use of assets to generate revenues from $1.36 to $1.29 of revenue for each dollar of assets. Nike assets, particularly cash, short-term investments, and accounts receivable, increased significantly over this period. This was due to Nike holding more of these assets in response to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g., desiring increased liquidity, customers taking longer to pay). A comparison with similar companies or industry averages would be helpful in making a more definitive statement on the effectiveness of the use of the assets.

Nike’s inventory turnover increased from 3.3 in 2020 to 3.5 in 2021. Thus, its inventory management improved over the 2 years. Its days’ sales in inventory decreased from 112.0 days to 105.7 days. This signals an improvement in the efficiency of Nike’s inventory management.

The days’ cash on hand increased from 258.4 to 399.9 days from 2020 to 2021. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Nike suspended its share repurchase program, which resulted in an increase in available cash. In both years, the cash position is very strong. Nike has sufficient cash to support operations, even after considering the potential catastrophic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

3. The accounts receivable turnover increased from 10.7 to 12.4, indicating that Nike increased the level of efficiency of collecting accounts receivable. The days’ sales in receivables decreased from 34.2 days to 29.6 days, also indicating an increase in the efficiency of collecting receivables. Before reaching a conclusion, however, the ratios should be compared with industry averages and similar firms.

= 7.8

2. In 2021, Nike earned $9.10 revenue for every dollar of fixed assets, which increased from $7.80 in 2020. To interpret this ratio and the increase from 2020, it is useful to compare it to the ratios of competitors. Under Armour reported a fixed asset turnover ratio of 9.0. Thus, Nike is approximately equally efficient at generating revenues compared to one of its major competitors.

2. Nike’s working capital increased by $4,345 million ($16,617 − $12,272) during 2021. Both the current ratio and the quick ratio increased in 2021. These ratios are both above 1 and indicate a strong solvency position. Many companies, such as Nike, increased their holdings of liquid assets in response to the uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, short-term creditors should not be concerned about receiving payments from Nike.

2. While Nike grew revenues by $7,135 million ($44,538 million – $37,403 million), the number of employees was reduced by 2.8% [(73,300 – 75,400) ÷ 75,400]. The growth in revenue while reducing employees led to an increase in the revenue per employee between the two years. Thus, Nike was more efficient in generating revenues from its employees in 2021.

During this time, the average number of shares outstanding has decreased approximately 0.4%. The low earnings per share in 2020 is due, in large part, to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in 2021 was due to the economic recovery that occurred following the shutdown of business during the pandemic.

As a percentage of sales, Nike’s ratio of free cash flow to sales increased by 1.2% (13.4% – 12.2%). Much of the increase in cash flow and revenue in 2021 is attributable to the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, Nike has a sufficient amount of free cash flow. Nike’s large free cash flow indicates it will be able to fund future growth and acquisitions, retire debt, purchase treasury stock, and pay dividends. Overall, Nike has a large degree of financial flexibility.

2. Nike’s profitability, as measured by earnings per share, has improved during the 2-year period presented. The returns on total assets and total stockholders’ equity have also improved during this period. This is due largely to the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic during 2021. During this time, Nike has been able to maintain a stable dividend yield. Additionally, there was a significant decrease in the price-earnings ratio, which was driven largely by the increased earnings per share and an increase in the market price per share of common stock. Overall, Nike has remained profitable despite the disruption caused by the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and is showing increased profitablilty during the economic recovery following the pandemic. Nike is viewed favorably by the market. C-11 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.


CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Some users of accounting information include managers, employees, investors, creditors, customers, and the government.

2.

The role of accounting is to provide information for managers to use in operating the business. In addition, accounting provides information to others to use in assessing the economic performance and condition of the business.

3.

The corporate form allows the company to obtain large amounts of resources by issuing stock. For this reason, most companies that require large investments in property, plant, and equipment are organized as corporations.

4.

No. The business entity assumption limits the recording of economic data to transactions directly affecting the activities of the business. The payment of the interest of $4,500 is a personal transaction of Josh Reilly and should not be recorded by Dispatch Delivery Service.

5.

The land should be recorded at its cost of $167,500 to Reliable Repair Service. This is consistent with the cost principle.

6.

a.

No. The offer of $2,000,000 and the increase in the assessed value should not be recognized in the accounting records.

b.

Cash would increase by $2,125,000, land would decrease by $900,000, and owner’s capital would increase by $1,225,000.

7.

An account receivable is a claim against a customer for goods or services sold. An account payable is an amount owed to a creditor for goods or services purchased. Therefore, an account receivable in the records of the seller is an account payable in the records of the purchaser.

8.

(b) The business realized net income of $91,000 ($679,000 – $588,000).

9.

(a) The business incurred a net loss of $75,000 ($640,000 – $715,000).

10.

(a) Net income or net loss (b) Owner’s capital at the end of the period (c) Cash at the end of the period

Ex. 1–2 As in many ethics issues, there is no one right answer. Oftentimes, disclosing only what is legally required may not be enough. In this case, it would be best for the company’s chief executive officer to disclose both reports to the county representatives. In doing so, the chief executive officer could point out any flaws or deficiencies in the fired researcher’s report.

b.

(1) Total assets decreased $80,000. (2) Total liabilities decreased $80,000. (3) No change in owner’s equity.

c.

No, it is false that a transaction always affects at least two elements (Assets, Liabilities, or Owner’s Equity) of the accounting equation. Some transactions affect only one element of the accounting equation. For example, purchasing supplies for cash only affects assets.

CHAPTER 1

Introduction to Accounting and Business

Ex. 1–25 a. 1.

All financial statements should contain the name of the business in their heading. The statement of owner’s equity is incorrectly headed as “Omar Farah” rather than “We-Sell Realty.” The heading of the balance sheet needs to include the name of the business.

2.

The income statement covers a period of time and should be labeled “For the Month Ended August 31, 20Y7.”

3.

The year in the heading for the statement of owner’s equity should be 20Y7 rather than 20Y6.

4.

The balance sheet should be labeled “August 31, 20Y7,” rather than “For the Month Ended August 31, 20Y7.”

5.

On the income statement, the miscellaneous expense amount should be listed as the last expense.

6.

On the income statement, the total expenses are subtracted from the sales commissions, resulting in an incorrect net income amount of $25,000. The correct net income should be $24,150. This also affects the statement of owner’s equity and the amount of Omar Farah, capital that appears on the balance sheet.

7.

The statement of owner’s equity should be for the “month” rather than for the “year” ended August 31, 20Y7. In addition, the investment by Omar Farah to organize We-Sell Realty of $15,000 is not reported.

8.

Accounts payable should be listed as a liability on the balance sheet.

9.

Accounts receivable and supplies should be listed as assets on the balance sheet.

10.

The balance sheet assets should equal the sum of the liabilities and owner’s equity.

MAKE A DECISION MAD 1–1 Ratio of Liabilities to Stockholders’ Equity =

a.

Amazon:

$282,304 $138,245

= 2.04

Best Buy:

$14,480 $4,587

= 3.16

Total Liabilities Total Stockholders’ Equity

b. Amazon’s ratio is 2.04, which means the total liabilities are over two times as great as the stockholders’ equity. For Best Buy, the ratio is higher at 3.16, which means the total liabilities are over three times as great as stockholders’ equity. Thus, the margin of protection is more for Amazon’s creditors than it is for Best Buy’s creditors.

b. The ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity for Target varied from 2.65 in Year 1 to 2.55 in Year 3. Thus, the margin of protection for creditors has remained relatively consistent across the three years.

b. The ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity for Walmart increased from 2.02 in Year 1 to 2.17 in Year 2, and decreased to 2.12 in Year 3. Thus, the margin of protection for creditors has decreased slightly in Years 2 and 3 from that of Year 1.

MAD 1–4 The ratios of liabilities to stockholders’ equity are summarized below for Target (MAD 1–2) and Walmart (MAD 1–3).

Target Walmart

Year 3 2.55 2.12

Year 2 2.62 2.17

Year 1 2.65 2.02

Target’s ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity is more than that of Walmart for all three years. Thus, the risk to Target’s creditors is more than that of Walmart’s creditors. Target appears to be slightly more aggressive than Walmart in its use of debt.

Chipotle:

= 1.90

Total Liabilities Total Stockholders’ Equity

b. The ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity is 8.16 for Wendy’s. This ratio is relatively high and suggests that creditors have risk with their investments. Specifically, the small level of stockholders’ equity provides a low margin of protection for creditors. c.

Chipotle’s ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity of 1.90 suggests that Chipotle is not using as much debt to finance its operations as Wendy’s. This, in turn, suggests that Chipotle’s creditors have more protection than Wendy’s creditors.

The car repair is a personal expense and is Marco’s personal responsibility. By using partnership funds to pay for the repair, Marco is behaving unethically because he is violating the business entity assumption. The business entity assumption treats the business as a separate entity from its owners. By taking money from the partnership for a personal expense, Marco is effectively stealing from his partners.

2.

The partnership’s net income will be reduced by the $2,000 Marco has taken. This will reduce the amount of net income available to Marco’s partners.

3.

Marco could ask his partners for a loan from the partnership. The loan could be repaid out of his salary or from his share of the partnership income.

Acceptable professional conduct requires that Colleen Fernandez supply First Federal Bank with all the relevant financial statements necessary for the bank to make an informed decision. Therefore, Colleen should provide the complete set of financial statements. These can be supplemented with a discussion of the net loss in the past year or other data explaining why granting the loan is a good investment for the bank.

2.

a.

Owners are generally willing to provide bankers with information about the operating and financial condition of the business, such as the following: ●

Operating Information: ● Description of business operations ● Results of past operations ● Preliminary results of current operations ● Plans for future operations

Financial Condition: ● List of assets and liabilities (balance sheet) ● Estimated current values of assets ● Owner’s personal investment in the business ● Owner’s commitment to invest additional funds in the business

Owners are normally reluctant to provide the following types of information to bankers: Proprietary Operating Information. Such information, which might hurt ● the business if it becomes known by competitors, might include special processes used by the business or future plans to expand operations into areas that are not currently served by a competitor. ●

Personal Financial Information. Owners may have little choice here because banks often require owners of small businesses to pledge their personal assets as security for a business loan. Personal financial information requested by bankers often includes the owner’s net worth, salary, and other income. In addition, bankers usually request information about factors that might affect the personal financial condition of the owner. For example, a pending divorce by the owner might significantly affect the owner’s personal wealth.

b.

Bankers typically want as much information as possible about the ability of the business and the owner to repay the loan with interest. Examples of such information are described above.

c.

Both bankers and business owners share the common interest of the business doing well and being successful. If the business is successful, the bankers will receive their loan payments on time with interest, and the owners will increase their personal wealth.

TIF 1–4 Example Memo To: Teacher From: Student Date: Current Date Subject: Causes of Accounting Fraud Business and accounting fraud typically result from either a failure of individual character or a culture of greed within an organization. Managers and accountants often face pressure to meet or exceed a company’s financial goals. At times, supervisors can place pressure on individuals to violate accounting standards to improve a company’s reported financial results. Individuals who give in to these pressures exhibit a failure of individual character. In other situations, a company may indirectly encourage employees to violate accounting rules as part of their job. This occurs in organizations that do not value ethical decision making or fair financial reporting and exhibit a culture of ethical indifference.

CHAPTER 1

Introduction to Accounting and Business

TIF 1–5 The difference in the two bank balances, $55,000 ($80,000 – $25,000), may not be pure profit from an accounting perspective. To determine the accounting profit for the six-month period, the revenues for the period would need to be matched with the related expenses. The revenues minus the expenses would indicate whether the business generated net income (profit) or a net loss for the period. Using only the difference between the two bank account balances ignores such factors as amounts due from customers (receivables), liabilities (accounts payable) that need to be paid for wages or other operating expenses, additional investments that Dr. Cousins may have made in the business during the period, or withdrawals made during the period that Dr. Cousins might have taken for personal reasons unrelated to the business. Some businesses that have few, if any, receivables or payables may use a “cash” basis of accounting. The cash basis of accounting ignores receivables and payables because they are assumed to be insignificant in amount. However, even with the cash basis of accounting, additional investments during the period and any withdrawals made during the period have to be considered in determining the net income (profit) or net loss for the period.

CHAPTER 2 ANALYZING TRANSACTIONS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

An account is a form designed to record changes in a particular asset, liability, owner’s equity, revenue, or expense. A ledger is a group of related accounts.

2.

The terms debit and credit may signify either an increase or a decrease, depending upon the nature of the account. For example, debits signify an increase in asset, expense, and drawing accounts but a decrease in liability, owner’s capital, and revenue accounts.

3.

a. b.

Assuming no errors have occurred, the credit balance in the cash account resulted from writing checks for $1,850 in excess of the amount of cash on deposit. The $1,850 credit balance in the cash account as of December 31 is a liability owed to the bank. It is usually referred to as an “overdraft” and should be classified on the balance sheet as a liability.

4.

a. b.

5.

No. Errors may have been made that had the same erroneous effect on both debits and credits, such as failure to record and/or post a transaction, recording the same transaction more than once, and posting a transaction correctly but to the wrong account.

6.

The Debit Balances column of the trial balance would be greater by $1,800 [($9,800 – $8,900) + ($1,000 – $100)].

7.

a. b.

The revenue was earned in October. (1) Debit Accounts Receivable and credit Fees Earned or another appropriately titled revenue account in October. (2) Debit Cash and credit Accounts Receivable in November.

No. Because the same error occurred on both the debit side and the credit side of the trial balance, the trial balance would not be out of balance. Yes. The trial balance would not balance. The error would cause the debit total of the trial balance to exceed the credit total by $90.

8.

a. b.

The equality of the trial balance would not be affected. On the income statement, total operating expenses (salary expense) would be overstated by $7,500, and net income would be understated by $7,500. On the statement of owner’s equity, the beginning and ending owner’s capital would be correct. However, net income and withdrawals would be understated by $7,500. These understatements offset one another, and thus, ending owner’s capital is correct. The balance sheet is not affected by the error.

9.

a. b.

The equality of the trial balance would not be affected. On the income statement, revenues (fees earned) would be overstated by $300,000, and net income would be overstated by $300,000. On the statement of owner’s equity, the beginning owner’s capital would be correct. However, net income and ending owner’s capital would be overstated by $300,000. The balance sheet total assets amount is correct. However, the liabilities (notes payable) amount is understated by $300,000, and owner’s equity (owner’s capital) is overstated by $300,000. The understatement of liabilities is offset by the overstatement of owner’s equity (owner’s capital), and thus, the total liabilities and owner’s equity amount is correct.

10.

a. b.

From the viewpoint of Surety Storage, the balance of the checking account represents an asset. From the viewpoint of Ada Savings Bank, the balance of the checking account represents a liability. 2-1

The Debit column total is added incorrectly. The sum is $1,098,500 rather than $1,801,500. The trial balance should be dated “December 31, 20Y8,” not “For the Year Ending December 31, 20Y8.” The Accounts Receivable balance should be in the Debit column. The Accounts Payable balance should be in the Credit column. The Ty Kincaid, Drawing balance should be in the Debit column. The Advertising Expense balance should be in the Debit column. A corrected trial balance would be as follows: Ensemble Co. Unadjusted Trial Balance December 31, 20Y8 Debit Balances

Cash Accounts Receivable Prepaid Insurance Equipment Accounts Payable Salaries Payable Ty Kincaid, Capital Ty Kincaid, Drawing Service Revenue Salary Expense Advertising Expense Miscellaneous Expense

Journal Entry That Should Have Been Made Prepaid Insurance 12,000 Cash 12,000

Comparison Prepaid Insurance instead of Insurance Expense should have been debited. Cash instead of Prepaid Insurance should have been credited. The debit and credit amount of $12,000 is correct.

Note: The first entry reverses the incorrect entry, and the second entry is what should have been recorded initially. These two entries could have been combined into one entry; however, preparing two entries makes it easier for someone later to understand what happened and why the entries were necessary.

Some supplies may have been used during June, but no supplies expense has been recorded. As will be discussed in Chapter 3, adjustments are necessary at the end of the accounting period to bring the accounts up to date. For example, adjustments for supplies used, insurance expired, and depreciation would probably be required by Whitworth Designs. Note to Instructors: At this point, students have not been exposed to depreciation, but some insightful students might recognize the need for recording supplies used and insurance expired. You might use this as an opportunity to discuss what is coming in Chapter 3.

Some supplies may have been used during October, but no supplies expense has been recorded. As will be discussed in Chapter 3, adjustments are necessary at the end of the accounting period to bring the accounts up to date. For example, adjustments for supplies used, insurance expired, and depreciation would probably be required by Pioneer Designs. Note to Instructors: At this point, students have not been exposed to depreciation, but some insightful students might recognize the need for recording supplies used and insurance expired. You might use this as an opportunity to discuss what is coming in Chapter 3.

No. The trial balance indicates only that the debits and credits are equal. Any errors that have the same effect on debits and credits will not affect the balancing of the trial balance.

b. The horizontal analysis shows that total revenues increased by 21.7% between the two years, with a strong increase in service sales. Service sales are revenues earned from Amazon’s Web hosting, Web design, and order fulfillment services provided for other businesses. This part of Amazon apparently has been growing rapidly. Total operating expenses have grown by 22.5% between the two years, indicating that expenses are growing slightly more than revenues. The expense growth appears to be occurring across all the major expense categories with marketing showing the highest percent increase and cost of sales the lowest percent increase. The net result is an increase in operating income between the two years of 8.6%.

b. Total revenues increased by 26.1% in Year 2, while total operating expenses increased by only 18.4%. While delivery service revenue is a small portion of total revenue, it increased by 40.6%, indicating a potential for rapid revenue growth in this revenue stream in the future. Food, beverage, packing and labor expenses increased by 19.5% and 20.4%, respectively. General and administrative expenses increased 30.3%, while marketing, utilities, other expenses increased by 16.2%. Pre-opening costs increased by 31.3% indicating the opening of new restaurants. Occupancy (rent) and depreciation increased by slightly more than 7%. Other expenses decreased by 38.7%, but make up a relatively small portion of total operating expenses. The overall result is that operating income almost doubled (increased by 177.6%) in Year 2 from Year 1. Thus, Chipotle Mexican Grill had a very successful Year 2.

b. Revenues decreased by 5.4%, while cost of sales decreased by 9.2%. Selling, general, administrative expenses remained the same with the result that total expenses decreased by 4.3%. Overall, operating income decreased by 32.8%. These results are consistent with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on retail operations across the United States and the world. During the pandemic, Vera Bradley closed its store locations, reduced its inventory, and expanded its ecommerce sales. The fact that selling, general, administrative expenses did not change reflects the difficulty of managing fixed expenses and costs such as corporate salaries and occupancy (rent) costs during periods of short-term, economic upheavals.

MAD 2–4 a. 1. Revenue: $93,561 – $78,112 = $15,449 $15,449 $78,112

= 19.8%

2. Operating expenses: $87,022 – $73,454 = $13,568 $13,568 $73,454

= 18.5%

3. Operating income: $6,539 – $4,658 = $1,881 $1,881 $4,658 b.

= 40.4%

The revenue increased by 19.8% between the two years, while the operating expenses grew by 18.5%. Thus, expenses grew less than revenues. As a result, operating income increased by 40.4% in Year 2.

b. Revenue increased by 6.7%, while operating expenses increased by 6.6%. As a result, operating income increased by 9.6%, which is a favorable change in Year 2. MAD 2–6 Target’s percentage increase in revenue of 19.8% was almost three times that of Walmart’s 6.7%. While Target’s percentage increase in operating expenses of 18.5% was larger than Walmart’s 6.6%, Target’s percentage increase in operating expenses was 1.3% (19.8% – 18.5%) less than its percentage increase in revenues. In contrast, Walmart’s operating expenses increased only 0.1% (6.7% – 6.6%) less than its revenues. As result, Target’s percentage increase in operating income of 40.4% was over four times that of Walmart’s 9.6%.

CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 2–1 1.

No. For financial accounting information to be useful, it must accurately reflect an entity’s business transactions and economic activity. For this to happen, each account must reflect the increases or decreases that result from each transaction. If the trial balance does not balance, it means that a transaction has not been accurately recorded in the accounts. By knowingly submitting a trial balance that does not accurately reflect the transactions in the accounts, Buddy is demonstrating a failure of individual character and is acting unethically.

2.

The users of the financial information who rely upon this information will be affected, as the information will not be a faithful representation of the entity’s economic activity.

3.

Buddy should have discussed the issue with his supervisor and asked for more time to find the error.

TIF 2–2 A sample solution based on Apple Inc.’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2021, follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

$351,002 million $287,912 million $63,090 million ($351,002 million total assets – $287,912 million total liabilities) 3 2 The income statement reports a summary of revenues and expenses for a specific period of time, such as a month or a year. The balance sheet reports a list of assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity as of a specific date, usually at the close of the last day of a month or a year.

CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

TIF 2–3 Note to Instructors: The purpose of this activity is to familiarize students with the job opportunities available in accounting, and allow them to demonstrate their ability to communicate the role of accounting in the context of a specific position that requires knowledge of accounting. An example of an advertisement for such a position is shown below. Individual student answers will vary depending on the specific scenario they select. ABOUT THE COMPANY Our client is looking to add a Financial Analyst. With a large and growing finance team, there is significant opportunity for growth and advancement within the department. The company boasts a team-oriented culture and provides its employees with the tools and training necessary to perform. Our client is looking to bring on more of a junior-level candidate who is looking to gain experience in his or her field of study. There will be hands-on training for the role that will evolve from a data analyst into a financial analyst and will be reporting to the director of finance. Our client is in the consumer goods industry and is an international company that has multiple opportunities for growth. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE FINANCIAL ANALYST The Financial Analyst will: • Conduct special studies to analyze complex financial actions and prepare recommendations for policy, procedure, control, or action. • Analyze financial information to determine present and future financial performance. • Evaluate complex profit plans, operating records, and financial statements. • Direct preparation of studies, reports, analyses, and recommendations in areas such as budgets, forecasts, financial plans, statistical reports, and business forecasts. • Coordinate with all levels of management to gather, analyze, summarize, and prepare recommendations regarding financial plans, trended future requirements, and operating forecasts.

CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

TIF 2–4 The following general journal entry should be used to record the receipt of tuition payments received in advance of classes: Cash…………………………………………………………………… Unearned Tuition Deposits……………………………………

XXX XXX

Cash is an asset account, and Unearned Tuition Deposits is a liability account. As the classes are taught throughout the term, the unearned tuition deposits become earned revenue.

TIF 2–5 The journal is called the book of original entry. It provides a time-ordered history of the transactions that have occurred for the firm. This time-ordered history is very important because it allows one to trace ledger account balances back to the original transactions that created those balances. This is called an “audit trail.” If the firm recorded transactions by posting to ledgers directly, it would be nearly impossible to reconstruct actual transactions. The debits and credits would all be separated and accumulated into the ledger balances. Once the transactions become part of the ledger balances, the original transactions would be lost. That is, there would be no audit trail, and any errors that might occur in recording transactions would be almost impossible to trace. Thus, firms first record transaction debits and credits in a journal. These transactions are then posted to the ledger to update the account balances. The journal and ledger are linked using posting references. This allows an analyst to trace the transaction flow forward or backward, depending on the need.

CHAPTER 2

Analyzing Transactions

TIF 2–6 1.

The rules of debit and credit must be memorized. Dot is correct in that the rules of debit and credit could be reversed as long as everyone accepted and abided by the rules. However, the important point is that everyone accepts the rules as the way in which transactions should be recorded. This generates uniformity across the accounting profession and reduces errors and confusion. Because the current rules of debit and credit have been used for centuries, Dot should adapt to the current rules of debit and credit, rather than devise her own. The primary reason that all accounts do not have the same rules for increases and decreases is for control of the recording process. The doubleentry accounting system, which includes both (1) the rules of debit and credit and (2) the accounting equation, guarantees that (1) debits always equal credits and (2) assets always equal liabilities plus owner’s equity. If all increases in the account were recorded by debits, then the control that debits always equal credits would be removed. In addition, the control that the normal balance of assets is a debit would also be removed. The accounting equation would still hold, but the control over recording transactions would be weakened. Dot is correct that we could call the left and right sides of an account different terms, such as “LE” or “RE.” Again, centuries of tradition dictate the current terminology used. One might note, however, that in Latin, debere (debit) means left and credere (credit) means right.

2.

The accounting system may be designed to capture information about the buying habits of various customers or vendors, such as the quantity normally ordered, average amount ordered, number of returns, etc. Thus, in a sense, there can be other “sides” of (information about) a transaction that are recorded by the accounting system. Such information would be viewed as supplemental to the basic double-entry accounting system.

CHAPTER 3 THE ADJUSTING PROCESS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

a.

Under the cash basis of accounting, revenues are reported in the period in which cash is received and expenses are reported in the period in which cash is paid.

b.

Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are reported in the period in which they are earned and expenses are reported in the same period as the revenues to which they relate.

2.

The matching concept is related to the accrual basis of accounting.

3.

Adjusting entries are necessary at the end of an accounting period to bring the ledger up to date.

4.

Adjusting entries bring the ledger up to date as a normal part of the accounting cycle. Correcting entries correct errors in the ledger.

5.

Four different categories of adjusting entries include prepaid expenses (deferred expenses), unearned revenues (deferred revenues), accrued expenses (accrued liabilities), and accrued revenues (accrued assets).

6.

Statement (a): Increases the balance of a revenue account.

7.

Statement (b): Increases the balance of an expense account.

8.

Yes, because every adjusting entry affects expenses or revenues.

9.

a.

The rights acquired represent an asset.

b.

The justification for debiting Rent Expense is that when the ledger is summarized in a trial balance at the end of the month and statements are prepared, the rent will have become an expense. Hence, no adjusting entry will be necessary.

a.

The portion of the cost of a fixed asset deducted from revenue of the period is debited to Depreciation Expense. It is the expired cost for the period. The reduction in the fixed asset account is recorded by a credit to Accumulated Depreciation rather than to the fixed asset account. The use of the contra asset account facilitates the presentation of original cost and accumulated depreciation on the balance sheet.

b.

Depreciation Expense—debit balance; Accumulated Depreciation—credit balance.

c.

No, it is not customary for the balances of the two accounts to be equal in amount.

d.

Depreciation Expense appears on the income statement; Accumulated Depreciation appears on the balance sheet.

b.

No. Depreciation is an allocation method, not a valuation method. That is, depreciation allocates the cost of a fixed asset over its useful life. Depreciation does not attempt to measure market values, which may vary significantly from year to year.

AT&T’s operating income is 13.8% of total revenues, while Verizon’s operating income is 10.5% higher at 24.3% of total revenues. Verizon appears to be more efficient in generating operating income from revenues. A higher percent of Verizon’s revenues comes from equipment rentals at 17.3% of total revenues compared to AT&T’s 13.3%. This may partially explain Verizon’s ability to generate more operating income as a percent of total revenues. AT&T’s total operating expenses are 86.2% of total revenues compared to Verizon’s 75.7%. All of AT&T’s operating expenses as a percent of total revenues are higher than Verizon’s. AT&T’s cost of services and depreciation and other expenses total 63.7% (47.3% + 16.4%) of total revenues compared to Verizon’s 54.2% (42.1% + 12.1%). Selling, general, and administrative expenses are comparable as a percent of total revenues for both companies. Overall, AT&T should question why its cost of services and depreciation and other expenses are 9.5% (63.7% – 54.2%) higher than Verizon’s.

CHAPTER 3

The Adjusting Process

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 3–1 1.

No. The accrual basis of accounting requires that revenues be reported in the period in which they are earned. By reporting revenue before it is earned, the revenues do not accurately reflect the revenues for the period. By knowingly recording an adjusting entry for more than the amount of revenue that was earned during the period, Chris is demonstrating a failure of individual character and is acting unethically.

2.

The users of the financial information who rely upon this information will be affected, as the information will not be a faithful representation of the entity’s economic activity.

TIF 3–2 It is acceptable for Daryl to prepare the financial statements for Squid Realty on an accrual basis. The revision of the financial statements to include the accrual of the $30,000 commission as of December 28, 20Y3, would not be appropriate. Most real estate contracts include contingencies that can void the contract. Such contingencies include obtaining a loan, appraisals, environmental studies, and inspection results. In other words, Daryl can only be sure of earning the commission on January 5, 20Y4, when the attorney formally records the transfer of the property to the buyer, and Daryl may disclose the pending sale and related commission in a note to the financial statements. Indicating on the loan application to Free Spirit Bank that Squid Realty has not been rejected previously for credit is unethical and unprofessional, and intentionally filing false loan documents is illegal.

TIF 3–3 A sample solution based on Nike Inc.’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021, follows: 1. a. Footwear b. 3 c. $5,727 million in 2021; $2,539 million in 2020; $4,029 million in 2019 d. $44,538 million in 2021; $37,403 million in 2020; $39,117 million in 2019 e. Nike recognizes revenue when transfer of control of the products has occurred, based on the terms of sale. Customers are considered to have control once they are able to direct the use and receive substantially all of the benefits of the product. Control is transferred to wholesale customers upon shipment or upon receipt depending on the country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. Control transfers to retail store customers at the time of sale and to substantially all digital commerce customers upon shipment.

CHAPTER 3

The Adjusting Process

TIF 3–3 (Concluded) 2. The company’s net income decreased from $4,029 in 2019 to $2,539 in 2020; a significant decrease of approximately 40%. This decrease can largely be attributed to the economic shutdown that occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic. The net income recovered in 2021 from $2,539 in 2020 to $5,727; an increase of over 125%. Nike recovered from the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and improved its net income significantly in 2021. Net income should be monitored in the future to see if this strong performance will continue given the economic climate in 2022.

TIF 3–4 To: My Instructor From: Ima Student Re: Revenue Recognition of Ticket Sales at Delta Air Lines Customers of Delta Air Lines typically purchase tickets for air travel several weeks prior to their scheduled flight and pay for their tickets using a credit card such as Visa or American Express. While the credit card company will remit payment to Delta shortly after the ticket is purchased, Delta will not record revenue from the ticket until after the air travel has taken place. This is because Delta does not earn the ticket revenue until it provides the required service. When Delta receives payment from the credit card company for an airplane ticket, Delta records a liability, called Unearned Revenue. After a customer uses the ticket for a flight, Delta records an adjusting entry to remove the liability and records revenue to reflect the fact that Delta has provided the service.

TIF 3–5 1. There are several indications that adjusting entries were not recorded before the financial statements were prepared, including: a. All expenses on the income statement are identified as “paid” items and not as “expenses.” b. No expense is reported on the income statement for depreciation, and no accumulated depreciation is reported on the balance sheet. c. No supplies, accounts payable, or wages payable are reported on the balance sheet. 2. Likely accounts requiring adjustment include: a. b. c. d. e.

Accumulated Depreciation—Truck for depreciation expense Supplies (paid) Expense for supplies on hand Insurance (paid) Expense for unexpired insurance Wages Expense for accrued wages Utilities Expense for accrued utilities

CHAPTER 4 THE ACCOUNTING CYCLE DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

The end-of-period spreadsheet illustrates the flow of accounting information from the unadjusted trial balance into the adjusted trial balance and into the financial statements. In doing so, the spreadsheet illustrates the impact of the adjustments on the financial statements.

2.

a.

Current assets are composed of cash and other assets that may reasonably be expected to be realized in cash or sold or used up, usually within one year or less, through the normal operations of the business.

b.

Property, plant, and equipment is composed of assets that are used in the business and that are of a permanent or relatively fixed nature.

3.

Current liabilities are liabilities that will be due within a short time (usually one year or less) and that are to be paid out of current assets. Liabilities that will not be due for a comparatively long time (usually more than one year) are called long-term liabilities.

4.

Revenue, expense, and owner’s drawing accounts are generally referred to as temporary accounts.

5.

Closing entries are necessary at the end of an accounting period (1) to transfer the balances in temporary accounts to permanent accounts and (2) to prepare the temporary accounts for use in recording transactions for the next accounting period.

6.

Adjusting entries bring the accounts up to date, while closing entries reduce the revenue, expense, and owner’s drawing accounts to zero balances for use in recording transactions for the next accounting period.

7.

The purpose of the post-closing trial balance is to make sure that the ledger is in balance at the beginning of the next period.

8.

a.

The financial statements are the most important output of the accounting cycle.

b.

Yes, all companies have an accounting cycle that begins with analyzing and journalizing transactions and ends with a post-closing trial balance. However, companies may differ in how they implement the steps in the accounting cycle. For example, while most companies use computerized accounting systems, some companies may use manual systems.

9.

Accrual basis accounting is required by GAAP because it better reports the underlying operating performance of a company. It does this using the revenue and expense recognition principles, which match the expenses with the revenues they generate.

10.

a.

Liquidity is the ability of a business to convert assets into cash, while solvency is the ability of a business to pay its debts.

b.

Working capital is the excess of the current assets of a business over its current liabilities, while the current ratio is the current assets divided by the current liabilities.

CHAPTER 4

The Accounting Cycle

Ex. 4–20 a.

The accrual- and cash-basis net incomes are different because they recognize revenues and expenses differently. The accrual basis recognizes revenues when they are earned, and expenses are matched against the revenues they generate. In contrast, the cash basis recognizes revenues as cash is received and expenses as cash is paid, regardless of when the revenues are earned or the expenses incurred.

b.

Examples of cash receipts recorded differently under the accrual and cash bases of accounting include the following: On December 1, NetSolutions received cash of $360 for rent to be earned over the next three months. Under the accrual basis, the receipt was recorded as unearned revenue, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as rent revenue. On December 21, NetSolutions received cash of $650 from customers on account. Under the accrual basis, the receipt was recorded as a decrease in accounts receivable, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as fees earned.

c.

Examples of cash payments recorded differently under the accrual and cash bases of accounting include the following: On December 1, NetSolutions paid cash of $2,400 for insurance covering a oneyear period. Under the accrual basis, the payment was recorded as prepaid insurance, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as insurance expense. On December 11, NetSolutions paid cash of $400 on the purchase of supplies on account in November. Under the accrual basis, the payment was recorded as a decrease in accounts payable, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as supplies expense. On December 20, NetSolutions paid Executive Supply Co. $900 on account for the purchase of office equipment on account on December 4. Under accrual accounting, the payment was recorded as a decrease in accounts payable, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as an increase in office equipment. On December 23, NetSolutions paid cash of $1,450 for the purchase of supplies. Under accrual accounting, the payment was recorded as supplies, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as supplies expense.

d.

Examples of cash receipts recorded the same under the accrual and cash bases of accounting include the following: On December 16 and 31, NetSolutions received cash of $3,100 and $2,870 for fees earned. These receipts are recorded the same under the accrual and cash bases.

e.

The accrual basis of accounting is required by GAAP because it better reports the underlying operating performance of a company. It does this using the revenue and expense recognition principles, which match the expenses with the revenues they generate. In contrast, the cash basis records revenues as cash is received and expenses as cash is paid, which often doesn’t match expenses with the revenues that they generated in the same period.

Ex. 4–21 a.

The accrual- and cash-basis net incomes are different because they recognize revenues and expenses differently. The accrual basis recognizes revenues when they are earned, and expenses are matched against the revenues they generate. In contrast, the cash basis recognizes revenues as cash is received and expenses as cash is paid, regardless of when the revenues are earned or the expenses incurred.

b.

Examples of cash receipts recorded differently under the accrual and cash bases of accounting include the following: On April 4, Kelly Consulting received cash of $5,000 for services to be provided in the future. Under the accrual basis, the receipt was recorded as unearned revenue, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as fees earned. On April 6, Kelly Consulting received cash of $1,800 from customers on account. Under the accrual basis, the receipt was recorded as a decrease in accounts receivable, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as fees earned. On April 26, Kelly Consulting received cash of $5,600 from customers on account. Under the accrual basis, the receipt was recorded as a decrease in accounts receivable, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as fees earned.

c.

Examples of cash payments recorded differently under the accrual and cash bases of accounting include the following: On April 1, Kelly Consulting paid cash of $4,800 for three months’ rent. Under the accrual basis, the payment was recorded as prepaid rent, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as rent expense. On April 2, Kelly Consulting paid cash of $1,800 for insurance. Under the accrual basis, the payment was recorded as prepaid insurance, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as insurance expense. On April 12, Kelly Consulting paid cash of $1,200 on accounts payable on the office equipment purchased on April 5. Under the accrual basis, the payment was recorded as a decrease in accounts payable, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as office equipment.

CHAPTER 4

The Accounting Cycle

Ex. 4–21 (Concluded) On April 18, Kelly Consulting paid cash of $800 for supplies. Under the accrual basis, the payment was recorded as supplies, while under the cash basis, it would have been recorded as supplies expense. d.

Examples of cash payments recorded the same under the accrual and cash bases of accounting include the following: On April 10, 14, 27, 29, and 30, Kelly Consulting paid for expenses. These payments are recorded the same under the accrual and cash bases. In addition, the owner withdrawal on April 30 would be recorded the same under the accrual and cash bases.

e.

The accrual basis of accounting is required by GAAP because it better reports the underlying operating performance of a company. It does this using the revenue and expense recognition principles, which match the expenses with the revenues they generate. In contrast, the cash basis records revenues as cash is received and expenses as cash is paid, which often doesn’t match expenses with the revenues that they generated in the same period.

Ex. 4–22 Because depreciation expense does not involve a cash payment, it is not deducted in arriving at Pepsi’s estimated cash-basis net income of $11,616 million. As a result, Pepsi’s accrual net income of $7,679 million is lower than its estimated cash-basis net income of $11,616 million. A majority of this difference of $3,937 million ($11,616 – $7,679) is due to depreciation expense of $2,710 million. Ex. 4–23 Because depreciation-related expense does not involve a cash payment, it is not deducted in arriving at Microsoft’s estimated cash-basis net income of $76,740 million. As a result, Microsoft’s accrual net income of $61,271 million is lower than its estimated cash basis net income of $76,740 million. A majority of this difference of $15,469 million ($76,740 – $61,271) is due to depreciation-related expense of $11,686 million.

MAKE A DECISION MAD 4–1 Amazon $ 161,580 (142,266) $ 19,314

a. Current assets Current liabilities Working capital

Best Buy $ 12,540 (10,521) $ 2,019

b. Amazon has a larger working capital balance than does Best Buy ($19,314 million compared to $2,019 million). c. Working capital is a poor measure for comparing liquidity across firms. Amazon has current assets and current liabilities that are more than ten times larger than those of Best Buy. Thus, Amazon’s working capital balance is from a much larger base than that of Best Buy. In this case, ratios, such as the current ratio, are a much better measure of relative liquidity between the two firms. d.

Current Ratio =

Current Assets Current Liabilities

Amazon:

$161,580 $142,266

= 1.1 (rounded)

Best Buy:

$12,540 $10,521

= 1.2 (rounded)

e. The current ratio shows that Best Buy has a slightly stronger relative short-term liquidity (1.2 compared to Amazon’s 1.1). Best Buy’s retail stores require inventory (a current asset), while Amazon does not use retail stores and often has orders shipped directly from its suppliers, thus requiring less relative inventory. This difference may explain the slightly larger current ratio of Best Buy over Amazon. MAD 4–2 a. Current assets Current liabilities Working capital

For both years, it appears that Foot Locker has the greater relative liquidity, as measured by its current ratios of 1.7 and 2.0 compared to Dick’s 1.5 and 1.2. Foot Locker’s current ratios would be adequate under most conditions. In contrast, Dick’s current ratio of 1.2 in Year 1 would cause concern for short-term creditors. However, Dick’s increased its current ratio to 1.5 in Year 2. In addition, Dick’s financial statements report that Dick’s maintains a variety of credit agreements with several lenders that allows it to borrow on a short-term basis. This allows Dick’s to maintain a lower working capital and current ratios. Overall, both companies appear to have sufficient liquidity to meet short-term obligations to suppliers.

d.

Foot Locker’s current ratio decreased from 2.0 in Year 1 to 1.7 in Year 2 and, thus, its liquidity declined. In contrast, Dick’s current ratio increased from 1.2 in Year 1 to 1.5 in Year 2 and, thus, its liquidity increased.

b. Under Armour’s working capital remained approximately the same from Year 1 of $1,810 million to Year 2 of $1,886 million. Likewise, the current ratio remained the same at 2.3 for both years. The current ratio is 2.0 or above in each year, indicating a strong liquidity position. Thus, short-term creditors should not be concerned about receiving their payments. MAD 4–5 a.

b. Caterpillar’s working capital decreased slightly in Year 2 from $13,747 million in Year 1 to $13,608 million in Year 2. However, the current ratio remained the same at 1.5 in both years. These results suggest that Caterpillar’s short-term debt-paying ability is adequate to satisfy its creditors and short-term obligations.

b. Alphabet had more working capital than Microsoft at the end of both years. Although both companies have similar amounts of current assets, Microsoft has more current liabilities in both years. c. Working capital does not measure the “relative” liquidity between two companies. Size differences can result in large differences in amounts, which are difficult to compare. Ratios provide better relative measures of performance between companies; thus, the current ratio provides a better relative measure of liquidity between Microsoft and Alphabet. d. Current Ratio =

e. Alphabet has greater short-term liquidity as measured by the current ratio than does Microsoft. For Years 1 and 2, Alphabet’s current ratios are 3.1 and 2.9, respectively, while Microsoft’s current ratios are 2.5 and 2.1, respectively. Both companies are very profitable and generate a large amount of cash from their operations. Thus, the difference in the current ratio is not a concern and can be influenced by working capital and investment strategies. f.

Both companies have very high current ratios. Both companies exhibit a strong solvency position and should have no difficulties in meeting their short-term obligations.

CHAPTER 4

The Accounting Cycle

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 4–1 1. No. By knowingly recording a personal loan as a trade account receivable, Manny is reporting financial information that does not accurately reflect the company’s financial position. Specifically, the company is reporting a noncurrent asset (a loan) as a current asset (an account receivable). This may lead the bank to incorrectly expect this amount to be converted to cash in the near term, which may impact its loan decision. Manny is demonstrating a failure of individual character and is acting unethically. 2. The users who rely upon this financial information, such as potential investors and creditors, will be affected, because the company’s balance sheet will not be a faithful representation of the entity’s economic activity and financial position. TIF 4–2 1. Electronic Arts’ fiscal year ends on March 31. Walmart’s fiscal year ends on January 31. 2. Cash (and cash equivalents) Accounts receivable Property, plant, and equipment Goodwill (discussed in Chapter 9) Accounts payable Common stock Retained earnings 3. Inventory is the primary balance sheet account that is different. Walmart reports over $40 billion in inventory, while Electronic Arts doesn’t report any inventory. This difference is due to the nature of each company’s operations. Walmart is a retailer with stores throughout the world, which requires a large amount of inventory. In contrast, Electronic Arts develops, markets, and services games on mobile platforms and social networks. Electronic Arts earns revenues by sales of virtual games and advertising and, thus, has no inventory. TIF 4–3 To: Daniel Nat From: A+ Student Re: Balance Sheet Presentation The balance sheet describes the financial condition of the company as of a given date and is useful in assessing the company’s financial condition and liquidity. For balance sheet information to be useful, it must be presented in a consistent manner and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). I have reviewed the December 31, 20Y5, balance sheet of Asheville Company and have identified several presentation errors that limit its usefulness. These errors include incorrectly presenting accounts payable and J. T. Moore, capital as assets and incorrectly reporting building and equipment and the related accumulated depreciation as liabilities. In addition, the order of the assets and liabilities reported on the balance sheet is incorrect. 4-127 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.


CHAPTER 4

The Accounting Cycle

TIF 4–3 (Concluded) The Assets section of the balance sheet should have separate sections for current assets and property, plant, and equipment, and assets should be presented in the order in which they will be converted into cash or used in operations. Cash should be presented as the first item in the Current Assets section, followed by accounts receivable. Land and equipment should be presented under the subheading Property, Plant, and Equipment. The company has two liabilities that should be presented on the balance sheet as current liabilities: accounts payable and wages payable. In addition, the balance sheet should include an Owner’s Equity section below liabilities. This section should include J. T. Moore, capital. Assuming that the amounts recorded in the accounts are accurately reported, a correctly presented balance sheet would appear as follows: Asheville Company Balance Sheet December 31, 20Y5 Assets Current assets: Cash Accounts receivable Total current assets Property, plant, and equipment: Land Building Accumulated depreciation—building Book value of building Equipment Accumulated depreciation—equipment Book value of equipment Total property, plant, and equipment Total assets Liabilities Current liabilities: Accounts payable Wages payable Total liabilities Owner’s Equity J.

CHAPTER 4

The Accounting Cycle

TIF 4–4 1.

a.

With the decreasing cost of computers and related software, Main Street Co. may find it desirable to computerize its financial reporting system. In many cases, the computerization of a manual accounting system reduces the overall cost of the accounting function.

b.

A computerized accounting system would allow for eliminating the end-ofperiod spreadsheet, and thus, financial statements could be prepared with “a push of a button.” However, adjustment data would still need to be recorded at the end of the accounting period before the financial statements could be prepared.

c.

In designing a computerized financial reporting (accounting) system, proper accounting principles, concepts, and procedures must be followed. At a minimum, basic controls such as the use of the double-entry accounting system should be included. For example, debits must equal credits for all transactions, and assets must equal liabilities plus owner’s equity. In addition, the system should be designed to detect obvious errors, such as a credit (minus) balance for Supplies or Prepaid Insurance. In other words, to design an adequate financial reporting system, a computer programmer must have a thorough understanding of accounting and the accounting cycle. Note: Numerous accounting software packages are available. Therefore, it would probably be better for Main Street Co. to purchase existing accounting software rather than try to design its own.

2.

Supplies cannot have a credit balance, because the supplies account is an asset account. A business cannot have a “negative” asset. Thus, the only way a credit balance could have occurred in Supplies is the result of an error in recording one or more transactions.

TIF 4–5 1.

A set of financial statements provides useful information concerning the economic condition of a company. For example, the balance sheet describes the financial condition of the company as of a given date and is useful in assessing the company’s financial soundness and liquidity. The income statement describes the results of operations for a period and indicates the profitability of the company. The statement of owner’s equity describes the changes in owner’s capital for a period of time. Each of these statements is useful in evaluating whether to extend credit to the company.

2.

The following adjustments might be necessary before an accurate set of financial statements could be prepared: • No supplies expense is shown. The supplies account should be adjusted for the supplies used during the year.

CHAPTER 4

The Accounting Cycle

TIF 4–5 (Concluded) • No depreciation expense or accumulated depreciation is shown for the building or equipment accounts. An adjusting entry should be prepared for depreciation expense on each of these assets. • An inquiry should be made as to whether any accrued expenses, such as wages or utilities, exist at the end of the year. • An inquiry should be made as to whether any prepaid expenses, such as rent or insurance, exist at the end of the year. • An inquiry should be made as to whether the owner made any withdrawals during the year. No owner’s drawing account is shown in the “Statement of Accounts.” The following items should be relabeled for greater clarity: • • • •

Billings Due from Others—Accounts Receivable Amounts Owed to Others—Accounts Payable Investment in Business—Joan Whalen, Capital Other Expenses—Miscellaneous Expense

Note to Instructors: The preceding items are not intended to include all adjustments that might need to be made to the accounts. The possible adjustments listed include only items that have been covered in Chapters 1–4. For example, uncollectible accounts expense (discussed in a later chapter) is not mentioned. 3.

In general, the decision to extend a loan is based on an assessment of the profitability and riskiness of the loan. Although the financial statements provide useful data for this purpose, other factors such as the following might also be significant: • The due date and payment terms of the loan. • Security for the loan. For example, whether Joan Whalen is willing to pledge personal assets (collateral) in support of the loan will affect the riskiness of the loan. • The intended use of the loan. For example, if the loan is to purchase real estate (possibly for a future building site), the real estate could be used as security for the loan. • The projected profitability of the company.

CHAPTER 5 ACCOUNTING FOR RETAIL BUSINESSES DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Retail businesses acquire merchandise for resale to customers. It is the selling of merchandise, instead of a service, that makes the activities of a retail business different from the activities of a service business.

2.

Yes. Gross profit is the excess of sales over cost of goods sold. A net loss arises when operating expenses exceed gross profit. Therefore, a business can earn a gross profit but incur operating expenses in excess of this gross profit and end up with a net loss.

3.

The date of sale as shown by the date of the invoice or bill.

4.

a.

1% discount allowed if paid within 15 days of date of invoice; entire amount of invoice due within 60 days of date of invoice.

b.

Payment due within 30 days of date of invoice.

c.

Payment due by the end of the month in which the sale was made.

5.

Sales to customers who use Mastercard or Visa cards are recorded as cash sales.

6.

a.

A credit memo issued by the seller of merchandise indicates the amount for which the buyer’s account is to be credited (credit to Accounts Receivable) and the reason for the sales return or allowance.

b.

A debit memo issued by the buyer of merchandise indicates the amount for which the seller’s account is to be debited (debit to Accounts Payable) and the reason for the purchases return or allowance.

a.

The buyer

b.

The seller

7. 8.

Answers should include any three of the following: Sales, Cost of Goods Sold, Inventory, Estimated Returns Inventory, Customer Refunds Payable, and Estimated Coupons Payable.

9.

Cost of Goods Sold would be debited; Inventory would be credited.

10.

Loss from Inventory Shrinkage would be debited.

Note: The order and number of some of the accounts within subclassifications is somewhat arbitrary, as in accounts 116–118, accounts 520–524, and accounts 530–534. For example, in a new business, the order of magnitude of expense account balances often cannot be determined in advance. The magnitude may also vary from period to period. 5-4 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

b. The major advantage of the multiple-step form of income statement is that relationships such as gross profit to sales are indicated. The major disadvantages are that it is more complex and the total revenues and expenses are not indicated, as is the case in the single-step income statement.

Ex. 5–33 a. 1. Deducting the cost of goods sold from sales yields gross profit (not operating income). 2. Deducting the total expenses from gross profit would yield operating income (or income from operations). 3. Interest revenue should be reported under the caption “Other revenue and expense” and should be added to operating income to arrive at net income. 4. The final amount on the income statement should be labeled net income, not gross profit.

MAKE A DECISION MAD 5–1 a.

Student answers should include at least three items from each of the following lists. Amazon.com 1. Data centers and servers 2. Product and media inventory 3. Distribution centers 4. Office space Netflix, Inc. 1. Data centers and servers 2. DVD content library 3. DVD mail-in centers 4. Office space 5. Streaming content library (This library is either developed for Netflix or licensed for a fixed fee over a period of time and, thus, is an asset over that time period.)

Netflix 0.71 {$29,698 ÷ [($39,280 + $44,585) ÷ 2]}

Amazon appears to be more efficient in generating sales from its assets than is Netflix. Amazon’s asset turnover ratio is 1.27, while Netflix’s is 0.71. Netflix has a much smaller investment in property, plant, and equipment for its revenue base than does Amazon. Thus, it might seem surprising that Amazon has a higher asset turnover ratio. However, Netflix has a very large investment in its content libraries, both DVD and streaming. Netflix’s investment in its content libraries is more than 20 times larger than its investment in plant and equipment. As a result of this significant content investment, Netflix generates fewer sales per dollar of total assets than does Amazon.

These analyses indicate a decrease in the effectiveness in the use of assets to generate revenues from $1.54 to $1.39 of revenue for each dollar of assets. A comparison with similar companies or industry averages would be helpful in making a more definitive statement on the effectiveness of the use of the assets.

MAD 5–3 Dollar Tree Dollar General

Year 2 1.27 1.39

Year 1 1.43 1.54

Dollar General had higher asset turnover ratios than Dollar Tree. Dollar General’s asset turnover ratios were 1.54 and 1.39 in Years 1 and 2. Dollar Tree’s asset turnover ratios were 1.43 and 1.27 in Years 1 and 2. The turnover ratios decreased for both companies in Year 2, which may have been a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, Dollar General is more efficient in using its assets to generate revenues than is Dollar Tree.

Yellow 2.22 {$5,122 ÷ [($2,186 + $2,426) ÷ 2]}

b.

Union Pacific’s asset turnover ratio is 0.35, while CSX’s is 0.31. Thus, Union Pacific is more efficient in using its assets in generating revenue. For every dollar of assets, Union Pacific generates 35 cents of revenue, while CSX generates only 31 cents of revenue.

c.

Yellow’s asset turnover ratio is over six times larger than that of the railroads. Clearly, Yellow is much more efficient in generating revenues from its total assets than are the railroads. Railroads are very capital intensive, which means that their operations require a large asset base. Railroads require track, engines, railcars, computers, and switching yards to maintain the rail system. A trucking company is much less capital intensive. A trucking company requires an investment in trucks, computers, and terminals. Trucks run on highways that are an asset of the government, whereas the railroads must own and maintain their own rails.

These ratios indicate a decrease in the effectiveness in the use of assets to generate revenues from $2.31 to $2.17 of revenue for each dollar of assets. A comparison with similar companies or industry averages would be helpful in making a more definitive statement on the effectiveness of the use of the assets.

Although Kroger and Tiffany are both retail stores, Tiffany sells jewelry using a much longer operating cycle than Kroger uses selling groceries. Thus, Kroger is able to generate $2.82 of sales for every dollar of assets. Tiffany, however, generates less than $1.00 in sales per dollar of assets. This difference is reasonable when one considers the sales rate for jewelry and the cost of holding jewelry inventory, relative to groceries. Fortunately, Tiffany is able to offset its longer operating cycle with higher markups on its jewelry, relative to groceries.

MAD 5–7 (Concluded) b. The asset turnover ratios varied from 1.49 in Year 1 to 1.56 in Year 2 and 1.48 in Year 3. Thus, the asset turnover ratios were fairly consistent in Years 1 through 3. In Year 4, however, the asset turnover ratio decreased significantly to 1.07. This decrease was due to the COVID-19 pandemic that swept throughout the United States in Year 4. As a result, Kohl’s temporarily closed “all” of its stores and limited its sales to only online (digital) orders. Once the pandemic subsided, Kohl’s reopened its physical stores and sales will hopefully rebound.

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 5–1 Margie has been placed in a very difficult position. Someone whom she trusts and respects has asked her to do something that is clearly unethical. If Margie makes the adjusting entry, her boss could very well be terminated. Yet, Margie’s primary responsibility has to be preparing relevant and representationally faithful financial information that is useful for decision making. Margie should, therefore, make the appropriate adjusting entry. Being right, however, doesn’t always make a decision easy. Margie’s actions could very well result in the termination of her boss and mentor. In order for financial information to be representationally faithful, it must be free of bias. The company president is clearly trying to pressure the Accounting Department to create biased financial statements, which is inappropriate. While Margie should not bend on the issue of making the adjusting entry, she should bring this issue to the attention of the Internal Audit Department or the board of directors.

TIF 5–2 Standards of Ethical Conduct for Management Accountants requires management accountants to perform in a competent manner and to comply with relevant laws, regulations, and technical standards. If Shelby intentionally subtracted the discount knowing that the discount period had expired, he would have behaved in an unprofessional manner. Such behavior could eventually jeopardize Bontanica Company’s buyer/supplier relationship with Whitetail Seed Co.

CHAPTER 5

Accounting for Retail Businesses

TIF 5–3 (Concluded) For the year ended January 29, 2022, Dollar Tree reported operating income of $1,811.4 million. This is a (4.1)% decrease from the operating income of $1,887.9 million for the year ended January 30, 2021. This decrease is likely due to the decrease in the gross profit percentage from 30.5% for the year ended January 30, 2021, to 29.4% for the year ended January 29, 2022. Overall, the operating results for 2022 and 2021 were similar. The company’s financial performance has changed significantly from the year ended February 1, 2020, to the year ended January 30, 2021. While the gross profit percentages for both years are similar (29.8% and 30.5%), operating income and net income were significantly smaller ($1,262.2 and $827.0) for the year ended February 1, 2020. This was due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating results of the year ended February 1, 2020.

TIF 5–4 Note to Instructors: The purpose of this activity is to familiarize students with the variety of possible purchase prices for a fairly common household item. Students should report several alternative prices when they consider the source of the purchase and the other factors that affect the purchase (e.g., delivery, financing, and warranties). Consider going to www.cnet.com and entering a search for “55-inch LED, LCD TV.” Pick one TV model that offers a range of prices from different stores and compare shipping and payment differences among companies. For example, the Samsung UNJS8500 TV has a range of prices of $1,619.95 to $1,799.99. Some stores offer free shipping. You might consider offering the student group(s) that comes up with the lowest price extra credit points for homework.

TIF 5–5 To: From: Re:

Suzi Nomro President, Watercraft Supply Company A+ student Proposal to Increase Net Income

If the proposed changes in credit terms increase sales by 10% as expected, and if the ratio of cost of goods sold to sales remains at 60%, this proposal has the potential to increase net income by $64,200, from $321,000 to $385,200. This increase will be driven by a $135,000 increase in sales. Cost of goods sold is also expected to increase by 60% of the sales increase, or $81,000. While store supplies and miscellaneous selling expenses will increase proportionally to sales, total selling expenses will decrease by $10,200 because of the change in freight terms. By shipping goods FOB shipping point rather than FOB destination, the company will save $12,000 in freight costs. This will result in an increase in net income of $64,200.

CHAPTER 5

Accounting for Retail Businesses

TIF 5–5 (Continued) There are several potential risks associated with this type of proposal. First, the accuracy of the estimates used to project the effects of the proposed changes is not certain. If the increase in sales does not materialize, Watercraft Supply Company could incur significant costs of carrying excess inventory stocked in anticipation of increasing sales. At the same time it is incurring these additional inventory costs, cash collections from customers will be reduced by the amount of the discounts. This could create a liquidity problem for Watercraft Supply. Another potential risk arises from the proposed change in shipping terms. Watercraft Supply assumes that this change will have no effect on sales. However, customers may object to this change and seek other vendors with more favorable terms. Hence, an unanticipated decline in sales could occur because of this change. While the anticipated outcomes indicate that the company should pursue the proposal, financial projections are inherently uncertain, and there is no guarantee that the actual results will match those in the projections. Management should test the proposed changes with the company’s customer base before proceeding. As with any business decision, risks such as those mentioned above must be thoroughly considered before final action is taken. Supporting projections are provided below.

TIF 5–6 Cam Pfeifer is correct. The accounts payable due to suppliers could be included on the balance sheet at an amount of $314,500 ($269,500 + $45,000). This is the amount that will be expected to be paid to satisfy the obligation (liability) to suppliers. However, this is proper only if Rustic Furniture Co. has a history of taking all purchases discounts, has a properly designed accounting system to identify available discounts, and has sufficient liquidity (cash) to pay the accounts payable within the discount period. In this case, Rustic Furniture Co. apparently meets these criteria, since it has a history of taking all available discounts, as indicated by Mitzi Wheeler. Thus, Rustic Furniture Co. could report total accounts payable of $314,500 on its balance sheet. Inventory would also need to be reduced by the discount of $5,500 in order to maintain consistency in approach.

If Mark needs the stereo immediately (the next day), then Tru-Sound Systems has the best price.

Wholesale Stereo list price………………………………………………… Next-day freight charge…………………………………………………… Total……………………………………………………………………………

$1,200.00 89.99 $1,289.99

Because both Wholesale Stereo and Tru-Sound Systems will accept Mark’s Visa, the ability to use a credit card would not affect the buying decision. Tru-Sound Systems will, however, allow Mark to pay his bill in three installments (the first due immediately). This would allow Mark to save some interest charges on his Visa for 2 months. If we assume that Mark would have otherwise used his Visa and that Mark’s Visa carries an interest of 1.5% per month on the unpaid balance, the potential interest savings would be calculated as follows:

$1,280.75 (19.41) $1,261.34

Other considerations in buying the stereo include the ability to have the stereo repaired locally. In addition, Tru-Sound Systems’ employees would presumably be available to answer questions on the operation and installation of the stereo. Also, if Mark purchased the stereo from Tru-Sound Systems, he would have the stereo the same day rather than the next day, which is the earliest Wholesale Stereo could deliver the stereo.

Three products that stand out as prime candidates to discontinue include: • A12 Matte, Ream • Legal File Folders, Dark Green, Pack of 10 • Erasers, 50 count In addition to considering the quantity sold, AAAA Office Supplies should also consider the storage space required and the markup (profit) associated with each product. Data analytics could also be used to include these product attributes.

CHAPTER 6 INVENTORIES DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

The receiving report should be reconciled to the initial purchase order and the vendor’s invoice before recording or paying for inventory purchases. This procedure will verify that the inventory received matches the type and quantity of inventory ordered. It also verifies that the vendor’s invoice is charging the company for the actual quantity of inventory received at the agreed-upon price.

2.

A physical inventory should be taken periodically to test the accuracy of the perpetual records. In addition, a physical inventory will identify inventory shortages or shrinkage.

3.

No, they are not techniques for determining physical quantities. The terms refer to cost flow assumptions, which affect the determination of the cost prices assigned to items in the inventory.

4.

a. LIFO b. FIFO

5.

FIFO

6.

LIFO. In periods of rising prices, the use of LIFO will result in the lowest net income and thus the lowest income tax expense.

7.

The inventory should be valued using the lower of its cost of $1,350 or its market (net realizable) value of $1,295 ($1,475 – $180). Thus, the inventory should be valued at its market value of $1,295.

8.

a. Gross profit for the year was understated by $14,750.

c. LIFO d. FIFO

b. Inventory and owner’s equity (owner’s capital) were understated by $14,750. 9.

Bibbins Company. Since the merchandise was shipped FOB shipping point, title passed to Bibbins Company when it was shipped and should be reported in Bibbins Company’s financial statements at May 31, the end of the fiscal year.

10.

Manufacturer’s. The manufacturer retains title until the goods are sold. Thus, any unsold merchandise at the end of the year is part of the manufacturer’s (consignor’s) inventory, even though the merchandise is in the hands of the retailer (consignee).

The decrease in inventory turnover from 5.3 to 4.8 and the increase in the days’ sales in inventory from 68.9 to 76.0 days indicate unfavorable changes in managing inventory.

CHAPTER 6

Inventories

EXERCISES Ex. 6–1 Switching to a perpetual inventory system will strengthen Triple Creek Hardware’s internal controls over inventory because the store managers will be able to keep track of how much of each item is on hand. This should minimize shortages of good-selling items and excess inventories of poor-selling items. On the other hand, switching to a perpetual inventory system will not eliminate the need to take a physical inventory count. A physical inventory must be taken to verify the accuracy of the inventory records in a perpetual inventory system. In addition, a physical inventory count is needed to detect shortages of inventory due to damage or theft.

Ex. 6–2 a.

Appropriate. The inventory tags will protect the inventory from customer theft.

b. Inappropriate. The control of using security measures to protect the inventory is violated if the stockroom is not locked. c.

Inappropriate. Good controls include a receiving report, prepared after all inventory items received have been counted and inspected. Inventory purchased should only be recorded and paid for after reconciling the receiving report, the initial purchase order, and the vendor’s invoice.

LIFO inventory LIFO cost of goods sold LIFO net income LIFO income taxes

b. In periods of rising prices, the income shown on the company’s tax return would be lower if LIFO rather than FIFO were used; thus, there is a tax advantage of using LIFO. Note to Instructors: The federal tax laws require that if LIFO is used for tax purposes, LIFO must also be used for financial reporting purposes. This is known as the LIFO conformity rule. Thus, selecting LIFO for tax purposes means that the company’s reported income will also be lower than if FIFO had been used. Companies using LIFO believe the tax advantages from using LIFO outweigh any negative impact of reporting a lower income to shareholders. Ex. 6–15 a.

c.

Cost of goods sold……………………………………………… $20,700 overstated Gross profit……………………………………………………… $20,700 understated $20,700 understated Net income……………………………………………………… d. The December 31, 20Y2, balance sheet would be correct, since the 20Y1 inventory error reverses itself in 20Y2.

Ex. 6–19 When an error is discovered affecting the prior period, it should be corrected. In this case, the inventory account should be debited and the owner’s capital account credited for $42,750. Failure to correct the error for 20Y4 and purposely misstating the inventory and the cost of goods sold in 20Y5 would cause the income statements for the two years to not be comparable. The balance sheet at the end of 20Y5 would be correct, however, because the 20Y4 inventory error reverses itself in 20Y5.

Because the price rose from $60 for the January 1 inventory to $88.40 for the purchase on March 25, we would expect that under the last-in, first-out method the inventory would be lower. Note to Instructors: Problem 6–2A shows that the inventory is $682,500 under LIFO.

a.

During periods of rising prices, the LIFO method will result in a lower cost of inventory, a greater amount of cost of goods sold, and a lesser amount of net income than the other two methods. For Dymac Appliances, the LIFO method would be preferred for the current year because it would result in a lesser amount of income tax.

b. During periods of declining prices, the FIFO method will result in a lesser amount of net income and would be preferred for income tax purposes.

Because the price rose from $1,200 for the April 3 inventory to $1,264 for the purchase on June 21, we would expect that under last-in, first-out the inventory would be lower. Note to Instructors: Problem 6–2B shows that ending inventory is $31,560 under LIFO.

a.

During periods of rising prices, the LIFO method will result in a lower cost of inventory, a greater amount of cost of goods sold, and a lesser amount of net income than the other two methods. For Pappa’s Appliances, the LIFO method would be preferred for the current year because it would result in a lesser amount of income tax.

b. During periods of declining prices, the FIFO method will result in a lesser amount of net income and would be preferred for income tax purposes.

($10,653 + $13,902) ÷ 2 $12,278 = = $74,963 ÷ 365 days $205.4 per day

59.8 days

c. Amazon appears to more efficiently manage its inventories compared to Target. Amazon has an inventory turnover of 9.7 and days’ sales in inventory of 37.8 days. This compares to Target’s inventory turnover of 6.1 and days’ sales in inventory of 59.8 days. d. The difference in inventory efficiency is likely due to the difference in the companies’ merchandising strategies. Amazon sells all of its products over the Internet. Some of its products are shipped from a warehouse system, which holds inventory. However, some products are shipped to customers directly from the manufacturer, thus bypassing Amazon’s warehouse. Direct-shipped merchandise is not handled as Amazon’s inventory. Target, in contrast, sells a majority of its merchandise off the shelves of its brick-and-mortar stores. Target’s strategy requires a significant investment in inventory as can be seen by its inventory turnover and days’ sales in inventory ratios.

c. Chipotle appears to manage its food, beverage, and packaging inventories more efficiently. Chipotle has an inventory turnover of 78.0 and days’ sales in inventory of 4.7 days. This compares to Darden’s inventory turnover of 10.4 and days’ sales in inventory of 34.9 days. d. One major explanation for the difference in inventory management efficiency may relate to the types of food the restaurants serve. Darden’s restaurants offer food that can be stored, refrigerated, or frozen. Thus, Darden’s food turnover can be slower. However, Chipotle offers food products that are sold fresh. Thus, Chipotle must manage its inventory more carefully.

Both the inventory turnover ratio and the days’ sales in inventory reflect the merchandising approaches of the three companies. Costco is a club warehouse. Its approach is to hold only mass appeal items that are sold quickly off the shelf. Most items are sold in bulk quantities at very attractive prices. Costco couples thin margins with very fast inventory turnover. Walmart has a traditional discounter approach. It has attractive pricing, but the inventory moves slower than would be the case at a club warehouse. For example, many purchases made at Walmart would not be packaged in the same bulk as would be the case at Costco.

BrownForman $1,367

$6.7 per day $3.7 per day $463.0 $1,718.0 69.1 days 464.3 days

Both companies produce beverage products. However, Monster Beverage produces and sells energy drinks that do not require an aging process. Thus, the inventory turnover is over six (5.3 ÷ 0.8) times faster than that of BrownForman. Brown-Forman’s products require a process that involves aging the beverage in barrels for a period of time. This additional time adds a significant number of days to the inventory cycle. Thus, Brown-Forman has a much lower inventory turnover ratio and a much longer days’ sales in inventory than does Monster Beverage.

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 6–1 1.

In the short run, Sizemo Electroniks may benefit slightly from the inflated inventory values and higher earnings. However, at some point in the future, the inventory will either be sold at a significantly reduced price or a lower-of-cost-or-market adjustment will be made. Tina benefits from avoiding a possible altercation with the CEO, board members, and other stakeholders who might be unsettled by a decline in earnings. However, these benefits are only temporary, as the loss will ultimately be recorded in later periods.

2.

The users of Sizemo’s financial statements are harmed by this decision, as it does not result in financial statements that fairly present the company’s financial results. Investors may use the information to make investment decisions. Creditors may use the information as a basis for loans to the company. Both investors and creditors may rely on the inflated values of the 537X semiconductors to predict future earnings, which could expose them to future financial losses.

3.

No. Tina is acting unethically by instructing Jay to intentionally ignore a lowerof-cost-or-market adjustment. As Jay’s supervisor, Tina has a responsibility to ensure her employees behave ethically and apply GAAP correctly. Jay is behaving unethically by knowingly applying GAAP incorrectly. He should have reported the incident to Tina’s supervisor.

TIF 6–2 Because the title to merchandise shipped FOB shipping point passes to the buyer when the merchandise is shipped, the shipments made before midnight, October 31, should be recorded properly as sales for the fiscal year ending October 31. Hence, Ryan Frazier is behaving in a professional manner. However, Ryan should realize that recording these sales in the current year precludes them from being recognized as sales in the next year. Thus, accelerating the shipment of orders to increase sales of one period will have the effect of decreasing sales of the next period.

Inventory costs primarily consist of product cost from the company’s suppliers as well as inbound freight and certain vendor allowances that are not a reimbursement of costs to promote a vendor’s product. b. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value and valued using the average cost method. c. $5,965 million (from balance sheet) d. 56.6% ($5,965 million ÷ $10,539 million) in 2022; 44.8% ($5,612 million ÷ $12,540 million) in 2021. Inventory as a percentage of total current assets has increased between the two years. e. $40,121 million 2.

TIF 6–4 Memo To: From: Re:

Ms. Connie Kilmer President, Golden Eagle Company A+ Student Comparison of LIFO and FIFO inventory methods

LIFO and FIFO are alternative methods of applying unit cost to the units that are sold during the year and those units that remain in ending inventory at the end of the year. The LIFO method is often viewed as the best basis for reflecting income from operations. This is because the LIFO method matches the most current cost of merchandise purchases against current sales. The matching of current costs with current sales results in a gross profit amount that best reflects the results of current operations. For Golden Eagle Company, the gross profit of $3,025,600 reflects the matching of the most current costs of the product of $6,974,400 against the current period sales of $10,000,000. This matching of current costs with current sales also tends to minimize the effects of price trends on the results of operations. During periods of rising prices, such as for Golden Eagle Company, the LIFO method will also result in a lesser amount of net income than FIFO. Because taxes are levied as a percentage of net income, Golden Eagle Company would pay a lower income tax under the LIFO method. While the LIFO method is often viewed as the best method for matching revenues and expenses, the FIFO method is often consistent with the physical movement of merchandise in a business, since most businesses tend to dispose of commodities in the order of their acquisition. To the extent that this is the case, the FIFO method approximates the results that will be attained by a specific identification of costs. The FIFO method also provides the best reflection of the replacement cost of the ending inventory for the balance sheet. This is because the amount reported on the balance sheet for inventory will be assigned costs from the most recent purchases. These costs reflect purchases made near the end of the period. For Golden Eagle Company, the ending inventory on December 31 is assigned costs totaling $1,436,400 under the FIFO method. These costs represent purchases made during the period of August through December. This FIFO inventory amount of $1,436,400 more closely approximates the replacement cost of the ending inventory than the $1,173,600 LIFO amount.

The sales manager could use this information to better accomplish the stated goal of providing customers with ordered parts no later than 48 hours from when an order is received. For example, the manager could identify the items with the most frequent stock-outs and increase the number of these items held in inventory to reduce future stock-outs. Also, when the most stock-outs occur (Friday), the manager could better coordinate with the company’s suppliers to restock high-demand items during the week in order to avoid the stock-outs on Thursday and Friday.

CHAPTER 7 INTERNAL CONTROL AND CASH DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

a.

The five elements of internal control are the control environment, risk assessment, control procedures, monitoring, and information and communication. The control environment is the overall attitude of management and employees about the importance of controls. Risk assessment includes evaluating various risks facing the business, including competitive threats, regulatory changes, and changes in economic factors. Control procedures are established to provide reasonable assurance that business goals will be achieved. Monitoring is the evaluation of the internal control system. Information and communication provide management with feedback about internal control.

b.

No. One element of internal control is not more important than another element. All five elements are necessary for effective internal control.

2.

To reduce the possibility of errors and embezzlement, the functions of operations and accounting should be separated. Thus, one employee should not be responsible for handling cash receipts (operations) and maintaining the accounts receivable records (accounting).

3.

The control procedure requiring that responsibility for a sequence of related operations be divided among different persons is violated in this situation. This weakness in the internal control may permit irregularities. For example, the ticket seller, while acting as ticket taker, could admit friends without a ticket.

4.

The responsibility for maintaining the accounting records should be separated from the responsibility for operations so that the accounting records can serve as an independent check on operations.

5.

Controls that could have prevented or detected the fraud include: (1) requiring supporting documentation such as receiving reports and purchase orders of all payments, (2) requiring approval by an independent party, and (3) allowing payments to only vendors who have been previously approved by upper management.

6.

The three documents supporting the liability are the vendor’s invoice, the purchase order, and the receiving report. The invoice should be compared with the receiving report to determine that the items billed have been received and with the purchase order to verify quantities, prices, and terms.

7.

The cash balance and the bank statement balance are likely to differ because of (1) a delay by the bank or company in recording transactions or (2) errors by the bank or company in recording transactions.

8.

The purpose of a bank reconciliation is to determine the reasons for the difference between the balance according to the company’s records and the balance according to the bank statement and to correct those items representing errors in recording that may have been made by the bank or by the company.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS (Concluded) 9.

10.

a.

Yes. Even though the petty cash fund is only $750, if the fund is replenished frequently, a significant amount of cash could be stolen. For example, if the fund is replenished weekly, then $39,000 ($750 × 52 weeks) could be subject to theft.

b.

Controls for petty cash include: (1) designating one person who is responsible for the fund, (2) maintaining a written record of all payments, (3) requiring support (receipts) for payments from the fund, and (4) periodic review of the funds on hand and the payments by an independent person.

a.

Cash and cash equivalents are usually reported as one amount in the “Current assets” section of the balance sheet.

b.

Examples of cash equivalents include certificates of deposit, U.S. government securities, corporate notes and bonds, and commercial paper.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

EXERCISES Ex. 7–1 Section 404 requires management’s internal control report to: (1) state the responsibility of management for establishing and maintaining an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting; and (2) contain an assessment, as of the end of the issuer’s fiscal year, of the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures of the issuer for financial reporting. The complete AICPA summary of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley is as follows: Section 404: Management Assessment of Internal Controls. Requires each annual report of an issuer to contain an “internal control report,” which shall: (1) state the responsibility of management for establishing and maintaining an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting; and (2) contain an assessment, as of the end of the issuer’s fiscal year, of the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures of the issuer for financial reporting. Each issuer’s auditor shall attest to, and report on, the assessment made by the management of the issuer. An attestation made under this section shall be in accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the Board. An attestation engagement shall not be the subject of a separate engagement. The language in the report of the Committee that accompanies the bill to explain the legislative intent states, “…the Committee does not intend that the auditor’s evaluation be the subject of a separate engagement or the basis for increased charges or fees.” Directs the SEC to require each issuer to disclose whether it has adopted a code of ethics for its senior financial officers and the contents of that code. Directs the SEC to revise its regulations concerning prompt disclosure on Form 8-K to require immediate disclosure “of any change in, or waiver of,” an issuer’s code of ethics.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–2 a. Disagree. Stealing is a serious issue. An employee who can justify taking a box of tea bags can probably justify “borrowing” cash from the cash register. b.

Agree. Faith has made one employee responsible for the cash drawer in accordance with the internal control principle of assignment of responsibility. In addition, Faith has segregated the operations (preparing the orders) from the accounting (taking orders and payments).

c.

Disagree. It is commendable that Faith has given the employee a specific responsibility and is holding that employee accountable for it. However, after the cashier has counted the cash, another employee (or perhaps Faith) should remove the cash register tape and compare the amount on the tape with the cash in the drawer. Also, Faith’s standard of no mistakes may encourage the cashiers to overcharge a few customers in order to cover any possible shortages in the cash drawer.

Ex. 7–3 a.

The sales clerks could steal money by writing phony refunds and pocketing the cash supposedly refunded to these fictitious customers.

b.

Ramona’s Clothing suffers from inadequate separation of responsibilities for related operations because the clerks issue refunds and restock all merchandise. In addition, there is a lack of proofs and security measures because the supervisors authorize returns two hours after they are issued.

c.

A store credit for any merchandise returned without a receipt would reduce the possibility of theft of cash. In this case, a clerk could only issue a phony store credit rather than taking money from the cash register. A store credit is not as tempting as cash. In addition, sales clerks could only use a few store credits to purchase merchandise for themselves without management getting suspicious. An advantage of issuing a store credit for returns without a receipt is that the possibility of stealing cash is reduced. The store will also lose less revenue if customers must choose other store merchandise instead of getting a cash refund. The overall level of returns/exchanges may be reduced because customers will not return an acceptable gift simply because they need cash more than the gift. The policy will also reduce the “cash drain” during the weeks immediately following the holidays, allowing Ramona’s Clothing to keep more of its money earning interest or use that cash to purchase spring merchandise or pay creditors.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–3 (Concluded) A disadvantage of issuing a store credit for returns without a receipt is that preholiday sales might drop as gift-givers realize that the return policy has tightened. After the holidays, customers wishing to return items for cash refunds may be frustrated when they learn the store policy has changed. The ill will may reduce future sales. It may take longer to explain the new policy and fill out the paperwork for a store credit, lengthening lines at the return counter after the holidays. Sales clerks will need to be trained to apply the new policy and write up a store credit. Sales clerks also will need to be trained to handle the redemption of the store credit on future merchandise purchases. d.

The potential for abuse in the cash refund system could be eliminated if clerks were required to get a supervisor’s authorization for a refund before giving the customer the cash. The supervisor should only authorize the refund after seeing both the customer and the merchandise that is being returned. An alternative would be to use security measures that would detect a sales clerk attempting to ring up a refund and remove cash when a customer is not present at the sales desk. These security measures could include cameras or additional security personnel discreetly monitoring the sales desk. Finally, an employee on the following work shift could be assigned the responsibility to restock returned merchandise and reconcile the returns to a refund list for the department.

Ex. 7–4 As an internal auditor, you would probably disagree with the change in policy. Pacific Bank has some normal business risk associated with default on bank loans. One way to help minimize this is to carefully evaluate loan applications. Large loans present greater risk in the event of default than do smaller loans. Thus, it is reasonable to have more than one person involved in making the decision to grant a large loan. In addition, loans should be granted on their merits, not on the basis of favoritism or mere association with the bank president. Allowing the bank president to have sole authority to grant large loans can lead to the president granting loans to friends and business associates without the required due diligence. This can result in a bank becoming exposed to very poor credit risks. Indeed, this scenario is one of the causes of the savings and loan failures of the past.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–5 The Societe Generale trading losses show how small lapses in internal control can have large consequences. When the losses became so large that they could no longer be hidden, it was too late. The loss could have been avoided with a number of internal controls. First, the separation of duties control was overcome by the trader’s intimate knowledge of the monitoring software. This knowledge of the monitoring system allowed the trader to effectively hide trades. The design of the monitoring software would need to be improved, and access prohibited by traders. If traders have access to the monitoring software, then the separation of duties control is violated. Second, the trader should be under managerial oversight. For example, trades that exceed a certain amount of exposure should require management approval. In this way, a trader would be forced to slow down or stop once trades have reached a certain limit. This would avoid the trader’s tendency to try to “make up” losses with even larger bets. Lastly, required vacation time may have alerted managers to the hidden losses once the trader was unable to attend to the trading positions.

Ex. 7–6 This is an example of a fraud with significant collusion. Frauds that are perpetrated with multiple parties in different positions of control make detecting fraud more difficult. In this case, the fraud began with an employee responsible for authorizing claim payments. This is a sensitive position because his decisions would initiate payments. However, claims would need to be authorized and verified before payment would be made. Knowing this, the employee made sure each claim had a phony “victim.” Thus, there was a verifiable story behind each claim. Only by tracking physical evidence of the accident could it be discovered that the claim was fictitious. However, the very nature of the process was to resolve small claims quickly without excessive control. Lastly, corrupt lawyers were brought into the fraud to act as attorneys for the claimants. This gave the claims even more credibility. In actuality, the lawyers had done legitimate business with the trucking company, so all appeared normal. This fraud was discovered when the fraudulent employee’s bank noticed irregularities in his bank account and notified authorities. As the saying goes, “Follow the money!” As a side note, the corrupt claims administrator fell into this behavior due to gambling problems.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–7 All-Around Sound Co. should not have relied on the unusual nature of the vendors and delivery frequency to uncover this fraud. The purchase and payment cycle is one of the most critical business cycles to control because the potential for abuse is so great. Purchases should be initiated by a requisition document. This document should be countersigned by a superior so that two people agree as to what is being purchased. The requisition should initiate a purchase order to a vendor for goods or services. The vendor responds to the purchase order by delivering the goods. The goods should be formally received using a receiving document. An accounts payable clerk matches the requisition, purchase order, and invoice before any payment is made. Such “triple matching” prevents unauthorized requests and payments. In this case, the requests were unauthorized, suggesting that the employee has sole authority to make a request. Second, this employee had access to the invoices. This access allowed the employee to change critical characteristics of the invoice to hide the true nature of the goods being received. The invoice should have been delivered directly to the accounts payable clerk to avoid corrupting the document. There apparently was no receiving document (common for smaller companies); thus, only the invoice provided proof of what was received and needed to be paid. If there had been a receiving report, the invoice could not have been doctored and gone undetected because it would not have matched the receiving report. Note to Instructors: This exercise is based on an actual fraud.

Ex. 7–8 a.

The most difficult frauds to detect are those that involve the senior managers of a company who are in a conspiracy to commit the fraud. The senior managers have the power to access many parts of the accounting system, while the normal separation of duties is subverted by involving many people in the fraud. In addition, the authorization control is subverted because most of the authorization power resides in the senior management.

b.

Overall, this type of fraud can be stopped if there is a strong oversight of senior management, such as an audit committee of the board of directors. Individual “whistle blowers” in the company can make their concerns known to the independent or internal auditors who, in turn, can inform the audit committee. The audit committee should be independent of management and have the power to monitor the actions of management.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–9 a.

The sales clerks should not have access to the cash register tapes.

b.

The cash register tapes should be locked in the cash register and the key retained by the cashier. An employee of the cashier’s office should remove the cash register tape, record the total on the memo form, and note discrepancies.

Ex. 7–10 Big & Bad Burgers suffers from a failure to separate responsibilities for related operations. Big & Bad Burgers could stop this theft by limiting the drive-through clerk to taking customer orders, entering them on the cash register, accepting the customers’ payments, returning customers’ change, and handing customers their orders that another employee has assembled. By making another employee responsible for assembling orders, the drive-through clerk must enter the orders on the cash register. This will produce a printed receipt or an entry on a computer screen at the food bin area, specifying the items that must be assembled to fill each order. Once the drive-through clerk has entered the sale on the cash register, the clerk cannot steal the customer’s payment because the clerk’s cash drawer will not balance at the end of the shift. This change also makes the drive-through more efficient and could reduce the time it takes to service a drive-through customer. If another employee cannot be added, the weakness in internal control could be improved with more thorough supervision. The restaurant manager should be directed to keep a watchful eye on the drive-through area in order to detect when a clerk takes an order without ringing up the sale. Another option is for Big & Bad Burgers to implement a policy that any customer who does not receive a receipt is entitled to a free burger and advertise this policy at the cash register and drive-through window. This approach uses the customer as an internal control.

Ex. 7–11 a.

The remittance advices should not be sent to the cashier.

b.

The remittance advices should be sent directly to the Accounting Department by the mailroom.

Ex. 7–14 The use of the voucher system is appropriate, the essentials of which are outlined below. (Although invoices could be used instead of vouchers, the latter more satisfactorily provide for account distribution, signatures, and other significant data.) 1.

Each voucher should be approved for payment by a designated official only after completion of the following verifications: (a) that prices, quantities, terms, etc., on the invoice are in accordance with the provisions of the purchase order; (b) that all quantities billed have been received in good condition, as indicated on a receiving report; and (c) that all mathematical details are correct.

2.

The file for unpaid vouchers should be composed of 31 compartments, one for each day of the month. Each voucher should be filed in the compartment representing the last day of the discount period or the due date if the invoice is not subject to a cash discount.

3.

Each day, the vouchers should be removed from the appropriate section of the file and checks issued by the disbursing official. If the bank balance is insufficient to pay all of the vouchers, those that remain unpaid should be refiled according to the date when payment should next be considered.

4.

At the time of payment, all vouchers and supporting documents should be stamped or perforated “Paid” to prevent their resubmission for payment. They should then be filed in numerical sequence for future reference. The implementation and use of a computerized system would also reduce the chance that any available cash discounts are missed. For example, when invoices are received and approved for payment, they would automatically be scheduled for payment within the discount period. However, even in a computerized system, the use of an approval process that requires supporting documents and indicating “paid” on these supporting documents is an important control for avoiding duplicate payments.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–15 To prevent the fraud scheme described, Paragon Tech must separate responsibilities for related operations. As in the past, all service requisitions should be submitted to the Purchasing Department. After receiving the service request, Purchasing should complete a Service Verification form, stating what service has been ordered and the name of the company that will provide the service. This form should be delivered via intercompany mail to the person responsible for verifying that the service was performed. This person should be someone who has firsthand knowledge of whether the service has been performed. This person, who must be someone other than the manager requesting the service, should fill in the date and time the service was received and sign the form. In addition, the vendor providing the service should sign the form before leaving the premises. When completed, the Service Verification form should be forwarded to the Accounting Department. Accounting will authorize payment of the vendor’s invoice after the Service Verification form has been compared with the invoice.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

Ex. 7–23 a.

The amount of cash receipts stolen by the sales clerk can be determined by attempting to reconcile the bank account. The bank reconciliation will not reconcile by the amount of cash receipts stolen. The amount stolen by the sales clerk is $4,135, determined as shown below.

Alaska Impressions Co. Bank Reconciliation October 31, 20Y3 Cash balance according to bank statement Deduct: Outstanding checks Adjusted balance

$13,275 (3,670) $ 9,605

Cash balance according to company’s records Add: Note collected by bank, including interest Deduct: Bank service charges Adjusted balance

$11,680 2,100 (40) $13,740

Amount stolen: $4,135 ($13,740 – $9,605) b.

The theft of the cash receipts might have been prevented by having more than one person make the daily deposits. Collusion between two individuals would then have been necessary to steal cash receipts. In addition, two employees making the daily cash deposits would tend to discourage theft of the cash receipts from the employees on the way to the bank. Daily reconciliation of the amount of cash receipts—comparing the cash register tapes to a receipt from the bank as to the amount deposited (a duplicate deposit ticket)—would also discourage theft of the cash receipts. In this latter case, if the reconciliation were prepared by an employee independent of the cash function, any theft of cash receipts from the daily deposit would be discovered immediately. That is, the daily deposit would not reconcile against the daily cash receipts.

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

PROBLEMS Prob. 7–1A Strengths: a, b, e, and f Weaknesses: c.

Employees should not be allowed to use the petty cash fund to cash personal checks. In any case, postdated checks should not be accepted. In effect, postdated checks represent a receivable from the employees.

d.

Requiring cash register clerks to make up any cash shortages from their own funds gives the clerks an incentive to shortchange customers. That is, the clerks will want to make sure that they don’t have a shortage at the end of the day. In addition, one might also assume that the clerks can keep any overages. This would again encourage clerks to shortchange customers. The shortchanging of customers will create customer complaints, etc. The best policy is to report any cash shortages or overages at the end of each day. If a clerk is consistently short or over, then corrective action (training, removal, etc.) could be taken.

g.

The mail clerk should prepare an initial listing of cash remittances before forwarding the cash receipts to the cashier. This establishes initial accountability for the cash receipts. The mail clerk should forward a copy of the listing of remittances to the accounts receivable clerk for recording in the accounts.

h.

The bank reconciliation should be prepared by someone not involved with the handling or recording of cash.

MAKE A DECISION MAD 7–1 a. Days’ Cash on Hand =

Cash and Short-Term Investments (Operating Expenses – Depreciation Expense) ÷ 365 Days

Amazon:

$36,220 + $59,829 ($444,943 – $34,296) ÷ 365 days

=

Fresh Vine Wine:

$16.1 ($10.5 – $0) ÷ 365 days

=

$96,049 = 85.4 days $1,125.06 per day $16.1 $0.03 per day

= 536.7 days

b. There is a significant difference in the days’ cash on hand between the two companies. Amazon has 85.4 days’ cash on hand, while Fresh Vine Wine has 536.7 days’ cash on hand. While Fresh Vine Wine appears to have greater cash liquidity to support operations and a greater cash cushion in the event of a downturn in business or catastrophic event compared to Amazon, it is important to examine the sources of cash. One reason that Fresh Vine Wine has more days’ cash on hand than Amazon is that Fresh Vine Wine received cash of $21.9 million from the issuance of stock and debt. However, Fresh Vine Wine used cash of $(5.8) million in its operations. With negative cash flows from its operations, Fresh Vine Wine will need to begin generating positive cash flows from operations within the next two years or seek additional external financing. MAD 7–2 a. Days’ Cash on Hand =

Cash and Short-Term Investments (Operating Expenses – Depreciation Expense) ÷ 365 Days

Dillard’s

$717 ($1,758 – $201) ÷ 365 days

Macy’s:

$1,712 ($7,986 – $874) ÷ 365 days

=

$1,712 $19.5 per day

= 87.8 days

b. Dillard’s has days’ cash on hand of 166.7 days, which is 78.9 days better than Macy’s 87.8 days. While Dillard’s has greater cash liquidity, both companies have sufficient cash to meet operating needs. MAD 7–3 a. Days’ Cash on Hand =

Cash and Short-Term Investments (Operating Expenses – Depreciation Expense) ÷ 365 Days

Year 3:

$302 ($6,037 – $1,360) ÷ 365 days

= 23.6 days

Year 2:

$262 ($9,148 – $1,772) ÷ 365 days

=

= 13.0 days

Year 1:

CHAPTER 7

Internal Control and Cash

MAD 7–3 (Concluded) b. Apache’s cash balance and days’ cash on hand has fluctuated across the three years. In Year 1, the days’ cash on hand was 13.1 days. In Year 2, the days’ cash on hand decreased slightly to 13.0 days. In the most recent year, Year 3, the days’ cash on hand increased to 23.6 days. The nature of the oil and gas exploration business can lead to swings in liquidity. The prices of crude oil and natural gas can change as much as 100% on the upside or 50% on the downside. Such swings will create cash flow management challenges. In addition, oil and gas exploration is inherently risky. Money spent on drilling efforts may result in dry holes. If the hit rate is low for a particular year, that will also create liquidity challenges. c. There are a number of actions a company can take to improve liquidity. Management actions may include: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Sell common stock to owners. Obtain bank or creditor financing. Sell off assets. Reduce dividends. Reduce exploration activities. Reduce other operating expenses.

MAD 7–4 a. Days’ Cash on Hand =

Cash and Short-Term Investments (Operating Expenses – Depreciation Expense) ÷ 365 Days

Restaurant Brands:

$1,087 ($3,860 – $201) ÷ 365 days

=

$1,087 = 108.7 days $10.0 per day

Dine Brands:

$361 ($635 – $11) ÷ 365 days

=

$361 = 212.4 days $1.7 per day

b. Dine Brands appears to have a stronger cash liquidity position than does Restaurant Brands. Dine Brands has days’ cash on hand of 212.4 days, while Restaurant Brands has 108.7 days. One reason that Dine Brands has more days’ cash on hand is that in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Dine Brands borrowed $220 million, which increased it’s cash balance. In addition, it closed a significant number of underperforming Applebee’s and IHOP restaurants.

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 7–1 Both Tehra and her supervisor are acting in an unethical manner. While Tehra’s disappointment at not receiving a raise may be justified, it is not appropriate for Tehra to submit personal expenses for reimbursement. By knowingly submitting false expense reimbursements, Tehra is effectively stealing from the company and exhibiting a failure of individual character. By allowing this behavior to happen and continue, Tehra’s supervisor is creating a culture of ethical indifference in the organization. This will likely lead to larger and more frequent incidents, potentially impacting the company’s financial results. TIF 7–2 Acceptable business and professional conduct requires Joel Knolls to notify the bank of the error. Note to Instructors: Individuals may be criminally prosecuted for knowingly using funds that are erroneously credited to their bank accounts. TIF 7–3 A sample solution based on Zoom’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022, follows: 1. a. $1,063 million (from balance sheet) b. 14.1% ($1,063 ÷ $7,551) for year ending January 31, 2022; 42.3% ($2,240 ÷ $5,298) for year ending January 31, 2021. Cash as a percentage of total current assets has decreased; however, much of that decrease is offset by an increase in short-term investments. 2. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting is included in the annual report as item 9A in the Form 10-K. a. Management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer b. Internal control is not explicitly defined in the annual report; however, the report does reference SEC rules and Committee of Sponsoring Organizations’ guidelines. According to these rules, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipt and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets of the Company that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 7-27 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

TIF 7–3 (Concluded) c. A material weakness is a deficiency in internal control such that there is a reasonable possiblity that a material misstatement will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. No material weaknesses were disclosed. d. A critical audit matter is a material account or disclosure that requires challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. One matter disclosed relates to the sufficiency of audit evidence over revenue. Specifically, Zoom’s revenue recognition process is highly automated and relies on customized and proprietary technology. This required the involvement of IT professionals with specialized skills and knowledge. TIF 7–4 MEMO To: My Instructor From: A+ Student Re: Control Procedures for Self-Checkout Lanes Wholesome and Happy Foods could incorporate several features into the kiosks that will increase the likelihood that customers will scan all of the items in their carts for purchase. First, the scanning system should be set up so that an audible beep is heard each time an item is scanned and a sale recorded. This will alert the attendant that the item has been properly scanned. If the attendant does not hear a beep for each item, the attendant should be trained to investigate to ensure that all items have been properly scanned. Second, the kiosk should include a built-in scale that measures changes in the total weight as items are placed in the bagging area. If the weight increases without an item being scanned, the attendant should be alerted by the system. Finally, the kiosk should remind customers to check their cart’s bottom rack for any items they may have forgotten to scan. TIF 7–5 Several control procedures could be implemented to prevent or detect the theft of cash from fictitious returns. One procedure would be to establish a policy of “no cash refunds.” That is, returns could only be exchanged for other merchandise. However, such a policy might not be popular with customers, and Turpin Meadows Electronics might lose sales from customers who would shop at other stores with a more liberal return policy. Another procedure would be to allow returns only through a centralized location, such as a customer service desk. The customer service desk clerk would issue an approved refund slip, which the customer could then take to a cash register to receive a cash refund. Because the customer service clerk does not have access to cash, the customer service clerk could not steal cash through fictitious returns. Yet another procedure would be to allow returns at the individual cash registers but require that all returns be approved by a supervisor. In this way, cash could be stolen through fictitious returns only if the supervisor and the cash register clerk collude to steal. 7-28 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

The first two visualizations, Inventory Losses as Percent Average Inventory and Control Cost as Percent Average Inventory can be used by management to understand both Johnson’s losses and costs on a normalized basis. However, the most useful visualization is when these two calculations are put together in the cost-benefit analysis. This analysis provides management with an indication that installing cameras is the most costeffective way to stop inventory losses. The loss by store as a percentage of average inventory is also useful to identify individual stores that experience a high rate of inventory losses and provide management with opportunities to take further, more specific action.

CHAPTER 8 RECEIVABLES DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Receivables are normally classified as (1) accounts receivable, (2) notes receivable, or (3) other receivables.

2.

Dan’s Hardware should use the direct write-off method because it is a small business that has a relatively small number and volume of accounts receivable.

3.

Contra asset, credit balance

4.

The accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts may be reported at a net amount of $661,500 ($673,400 – $11,900) in the “Current assets” section of the balance sheet. In this case, the amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts should be shown separately in a note to the financial statements or in parentheses on the balance sheet. Alternatively, the accounts receivable may be shown at the gross amount of $673,400 less the amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts of $11,900, thus yielding net accounts receivable of $661,500.

5.

(1) The percentage rate used is excessive in relationship to the accounts written off as uncollectible; hence, the balance in the allowance is excessive. (2) A substantial volume of old uncollectible accounts is still being carried in the accounts receivable account.

6.

An estimate based on analysis of receivables provides the most accurate estimate of the current net realizable value.

7.

a. b.

8.

The interest will amount to $5,100 ($85,000 × 6%) only if the note is payable one year from the date it was created. The usual practice is to state the interest rate in terms of an annual rate, rather than in terms of the period covered by the note.

CHAPTER 8

Receivables

EXERCISES Ex. 8–1 Accounts receivable from the United States and other governments are significantly different from receivables from commercial aircraft carriers such as Delta and United. Thus, Boeing should report each type of receivable separately. In its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Boeing reports the receivables together on the balance sheet, but discloses each type of receivable separately in a note to the financial statements.

Ex. 8–2 a.

MGM Resorts International: 18.0% ($128,348,000 ÷ $712,263,000)

b.

Johnson & Johnson: 1.5% ($230,000,000 ÷ $15,513,000,000)

c.

Casino operations experience greater bad debt risk because it is difficult to control the creditworthiness of customers entering the casino. In addition, individuals who may have adequate creditworthiness could overextend themselves and lose more than they can afford if they get caught up in the excitement of gambling. In contrast, Johnson & Johnson’s customers are primarily other businesses such as grocery store chains.

On the balance sheet, assets would be overstated by $124,600 because the allowance for doubtful accounts would be understated by $124,600. In addition, the owner’s equity (owner’s capital) would be overstated by $124,600 because bad debt expense would be understated and net income overstated by $124,600 on the income statement. 8-19 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

Yes. The actual write-offs of accounts originating in the first two years are reasonably close to the expense that would have been charged to those years on the basis of 1% of sales. The total write-off of receivables originating in the first year amounted to $8,500 ($4,500 + $3,000 + $1,000), as compared with bad debt expense, based on the percentage of sales, of $9,000 ($900,000 × 1%). For the second year, the comparable amounts were $11,800 ($6,600 + $3,700 + $1,500) and $12,500 ($1,250,000 × 1%).

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Amazon:

$469,822 ($24,542 + $32,891) ÷ 2

=

$469,822 $28,716.5

= 16.4

b.

Average Accounts Receivable Average Daily Sales

Days’ Sales in Receivables = Amazon:

($24,542 + $32,891) ÷ 2 $469,822 ÷ 365 days

=

$28,716.5 = 22.3 days $1,287.2 per day

Best Buy:

($1,061 + $1,042) ÷ 2 $51,761 ÷ 365 days

=

$1,051.5 $141.8 per day

= 7.4 days

c. Best Buy turns accounts receivable into cash 49.2 times per year, while Amazon only turns the receivables into cash 16.4 times per year. Likewise, Best Buy has only 7.4 days of sales in accounts receivable, while Amazon has 22.3 days of sales in accounts receivable. By these metrics, it appears Best Buy is more efficient than Amazon in turning accounts receivable into cash. d. The large difference in the ratios between these two companies suggests that there is a fundamental difference in the accounts receivable collection policies or in the types of customers served by the two companies. The most likely explanation is a difference in their customers. Retail customers frequently purchase goods with cash or credit card; thus, no accounts receivable is established upon sale. However, accounts receivable are more frequently established with sales to business customers. Thus, it is likely the sales to business customers as a proportion of total sales is higher for Amazon than it is for Best Buy. If so, this would explain the difference between the two ratios.

c. The accounts receivable turnover has decreased from 18.2 to 12.1 between the two years. In addition, the days’ sales in receivables increased from 20.0 days to 30.1 days. There appears to be a decrease in the efficiency in collecting accounts receivable between the two years.

c. The accounts receivable turnover increased from 42.3 to 48.0, indicating an increase in the efficiency of collecting accounts receivable. The days’ sales in receivables decreased from 8.6 days to 7.6 days, also indicating an increase in the efficiency of collecting receivables. Before reaching a conclusion, however, the ratios should be compared with industry averages and similar firms.

The average accounts receivable turnover for each company follows: Ralph Lauren: 15.2 [(18.2 + 12.1) ÷ 2] Victoria’s Secret: 45.2 [(42.3 + 48.0) ÷ 2] Note: Computations for the individual ratios are provided in the solutions to MAD 8–2 and MAD 8–3. b. Victoria’s Secret has the higher average accounts receivable turnover. c. Victoria’s Secret operates a specialty retail chain of stores that sell directly to individual consumers. Many of these consumers (retail customers) pay with credit cards or with cash. In contrast, Ralph Lauren sells its products to retailers, which are then sold to the final consumer. Ralph Lauren has a business-to-business relationship wherein trade accounts are a normal part of the sales cycle. Thus, we would expect Ralph Lauren to have more accounts receivable supporting its sales than would Victoria’s Secret. In addition, we would expect Ralph Lauren’s business customers to take a longer period to pay their receivables. Thus, we would expect Ralph Lauren’s average accounts receivable turnover across the two years to be lower than Victoria’s Secret, as shown in (a).

CHAPTER 8

Receivables

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 8–1 Estimates of uncollectible accounts receivable create a unique financial reporting challenge. Because the company does not know with certainty the amount of accounts receivable that will be uncollectible, there is no “correct” estimate. The company must use its judgment along with historical data to develop an estimate that fairly presents the portion of credit sales that will become uncollectible. These estimates are required under GAAP and should be representationally faithful and accurately match bad debt expense to revenues generated from credit sales. In this case, both Tim and Gowen appear to be acting unethically. The historical data indicate that a higher estimate is needed, and they have both knowingly ignored these data in order to improve the company’s reported earnings. Tim and Gowen have used the subjectivity in these estimates inappropriately. The result is a bad debt expense amount that does not faithfully represent the potential losses associated with uncollectible accounts receivable. TIF 8–2 By computing interest using a 365-day year for depository accounts (liabilities), Bev is minimizing interest expense to the bank. By computing interest using a 360-day year for loans (assets), Bev is maximizing interest revenue to the bank. However, federal legislation (Truth in Lending Act) requires banks to compute interest on a 365-day year. Hence, Bev is behaving in an unprofessional manner.

TIF 8–3 A sample solution based on Under Armour’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, follows: 1. a. $569.014 million (from balance sheet) b. $7.1 million (from Note 3 to the financial statements) c. 17.1% ($569.014 ÷ $3,336.299) in 2021; 16.4% ($527.340 ÷ $3,222.975) in 2020. Accounts receivable as a percentage of total current assets has increased. d. Under Armour did not disclose the amount of bad debt expense. 2.

CHAPTER 8

Receivables

TIF 8–3 (Concluded) Under Amour’s management of accounts receivable has improved. The increase in accounts receivable turnover means Under Armour has increased its efficiency in collecting its accounts receivable. TIF 8–4 To: From: Re:

Todd Hurley, CEO A+ Student Allowance Method for Uncollectible Accounts

Accounts receivable result from the sale of goods to customers on account. Because payment is received from customers after goods are delivered, there is a risk that customers will default on their accounts. While the company does not know which customers will default, it does have historical information on the portion of accounts receivable that has become uncollectible in the past. The allowance method uses this information to estimate the amount of accounts receivable that will be uncollectible at the end of the accounting period. Based on this estimate, an adjusting entry is used to record bad debt expense. However, because the company does not know which customer accounts will be uncollectible, the specific customer accounts cannot be removed. Instead, a contra asset account, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, is credited for the estimated bad debts in the adjusting journal entry: Bad Debt Expense Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

XXX XXX

This adjusting entry affects both the income statement and balance sheet. On the income statement, bad debt expense is matched against the revenues generated by the accounts receivable. On the balance sheet, the accounts receivable balance is reduced by the allowance for doubtful accounts, which is the portion of the accounts receivable that the company does not expect to collect. This resulting number is the amount of accounts receivable that the company expects to collect, called the net realizable value of the receivables. When a specific customer’s account is identified as uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. This requires the company to remove the specific account receivable from the accounts receivable ledger and an equal amount from the allowance account. Because the adjusting entry for bad debt expense is an estimate and the write-off of accounts receivable is based on actual defaults, the allowance account will rarely have a zero balance at the beginning or end of a period.

a. The estimate of 1/2 of 1% of credit sales may be too large because the allowance for doubtful accounts has steadily increased each year. The increasing balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts may also be due to the failure to write off a large number of uncollectible accounts. These possibilities could be evaluated by examining the accounts in the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger for collectibility and comparing the result with the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts. Note to Instructors: Because the allowance for doubtful accounts increased by 188% [($14,400 – $5,000) ÷ $5,000] while sales increased by 27.5% [($5,100,000 – $4,000,000) ÷ $4,000,000], the increase cannot be explained by an expanding volume of sales. b. The balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts that should exist at December 31, 20Y7, can only be determined after all attempts have been made to collect the receivables on hand at December 31, 20Y7. However, the account balances at December 31, 20Y7, could be analyzed, perhaps using an aging schedule, to determine a reasonable amount of allowance and to determine accounts that should be written off. Also, past write-offs of uncollectible accounts could be analyzed in depth in order to develop a reasonable percentage for future adjusting entries, based on past history. Caution, however, must be exercised in using historical percentages. Specifically, inquiries should be made to determine whether any significant changes between prior years and the current year may have occurred, which might reduce the accuracy of using historical data. For example, a recent change in credit-granting policies or changes in the general economy (entering a recessionary period, for example) could reduce the usefulness of analyzing historical data. Based on the preceding analyses, a recommendation to decrease the annual rate charged as an expense may be in order (perhaps Xtreme Co. is experiencing a lower rate of uncollectibles than is the industry average), or perhaps a change to the “estimate based on analysis of receivables” method may be appropriate.

4. The first analysis of average days’ sales in receivables indicates that the national chains’ days’ sales in receivables of 52.80 days is significantly higher than the other categories of customers. The large regional chains take 28.33 days, the small regional chains take 20.25 days, while the local stores take only 11.38 days. Gene O’Neil could use this analysis as a basis for revising Landry Marine’s credit terms of n/30 days by customer type. The second analysis, write-offs by customer type, indicates that write-offs are largest for locally owned stores. Gene O’Neil could use this analysis as a basis for implementing stronger credit reviews of locally owned stores. The third analysis of returns as a percent of credit sales indicates that locally owned and national chains return more merchandise. This analysis could be used by Gene O’Neil as a basis for revising sales and return policies for these customer types. For example, Landry Marine might discontinue sales to a locally owned store that returns large quantities of merchandise or implement a no return policy for locally owned stores.

$1,100,000

4.

Capital expenditures include the cost of acquiring fixed assets and the cost of improving an asset. These costs are recorded by increasing (debiting) a fixed asset account. Capital expenditures also include the costs of extraordinary repairs, which are recorded by decreasing (debiting) the asset’s accumulated depreciation account. Revenue expenditures are recorded as expenses and are costs that benefit only the current period and are incurred for normal maintenance and repairs of fixed assets.

No No

8.

a.

An accelerated depreciation method is most appropriate for situations in which the decline in productivity or earning power of the asset is proportionately greater in the early years of use than in later years, and the repairs tend to increase with the age of the asset.

b.

An accelerated depreciation method reduces income tax payable to the IRS in the earlier periods of an asset’s life. Thus, cash is freed up in the earlier periods to be used for other business purposes.

a.

No, the accumulated depreciation for an asset cannot exceed the cost of the asset. To do so would create a negative book value, which is meaningless.

b.

The cost and accumulated depreciation should be removed from the accounts when the asset is no longer useful and is removed from service. Presumably, the asset will then be sold, traded in, or discarded.

Preceding Year $ 17,952 75,291 10,283 $103,526 (66,760) $ 36,766

A comparison of the book values of the current and preceding years indicates that they increased. A comparison of the total cost and accumulated depreciation reveals that Apple purchased $6,197 million ($109,723 – $103,526) of additional fixed assets, which was offset by the additional depreciation expense of $3,523 million ($70,283 – $66,760) taken during the current year. b.

We would expect Apple’s book value of fixed assets to increase during the year as its sales increase. Although additional depreciation expense for the current year will reduce the book value, most companies invest in new assets in an amount that is at least equal to the depreciation expense. In contrast, in periods of economic downturn, companies purchase fewer fixed assets, and the book value of their fixed assets may decline.

Fixed assets should be reported at cost and not replacement cost.

Land does not depreciate.

3.

Patents and goodwill are intangible assets that should be listed in a separate section following the “Fixed assets” section. Patents should be reported at their net book values (cost less amortization to date). Goodwill should not be amortized but should be only written down upon impairment.

Land used as a plant site does not lose its ability to provide services; thus, it is not depreciated. However, land improvements do lose their ability to provide services as time passes and are, therefore, depreciated.

4.

Because land improvements are depreciated, depreciation expense of $1,200 ($12,000 × 1 ÷ 20 × 2) would be overstated, and net income would be understated by $1,200 on the income statement. On the balance sheet, Land would be understated by $12,000, Land Improvements would be overstated by $10,800 ($12,000 – $1,200), and owner’s equity (capital) would be understated by $1,200.

$54,600 18,200 4,600 $77,400

Calculations: Straight-line method: ($81,900 – $4,500) ÷ 3 = $25,800 each year Units-of-activity method: ($81,900 – $4,500) ÷ 20,000 hours = $3.87 per hour Year 1: Year 2: Year 3:

7,600 hours × $3.87 = $29,412 6,000 hours × $3.87 = $23,220 6,400 hours × $3.87 = $24,768

Double-declining-balance method: Year 1: Year 2: Year 3:

$81,900 × (2 ÷ 3) = $54,600 ($81,900 – $54,600) × (2 ÷ 3) = $18,200 ($81,900 – $54,600 – $18,200 – $4,500) = $4,600

Note: Book value should not be reduced below the residual value of $4,500.

2.

The double-declining-balance method yields the most depreciation expense in Year 1 of $54,600.

3.

Over the 3-year life of the equipment, all three depreciation methods yield the same total depreciation, $77,400, which is the cost of the equipment of $81,900 less the residual value of $4,500.

Land used as a plant site does not lose its ability to provide services; thus, it is not depreciated. However, land improvements do lose their ability to provide services as time passes and are, therefore, depreciated.

4.

Because land improvements are depreciated, depreciation expense of $4,320 ($21,600 × 1 ÷ 10 × 2) would be understated, and net income would be overstated by $4,320 on the income statement. On the balance sheet, Land would be overstated by $21,600, Land Improvements would be understated by $17,280 ($21,600 – $4,320), and owner’s equity (capital) would be overstated by $4,320.

CHAPTER 9

Long-Term Assets: Fixed and Intangible

MAKE A DECISION MAD 9–1 a. Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio =

Sales Average Book Value of Fixed Assets

Amazon:

$469,822 $136,698

= 3.4

Netflix:

$29,697 $1,142

= 26.0

b. Netflix is more efficient than Amazon in generating revenue from fixed assets. Netflix’s fixed asset turnover ratio is 26.0, which means it is able to generate $26.00 of revenue for every dollar of fixed assets. Amazon’s fixed asset turnover ratio is 3.4, which is only $3.40 of revenue for every dollar of fixed assets. Netflix’s fixed asset turnover ratio is over 7.5 times larger than Amazon’s (26.0 ÷ 3.4). c. The difference in their fixed asset turnover ratios reflects the difference in their core businesses. Netflix is mostly an Internet streaming and DVD rental company. These services do not require significant fixed assets. The most significant fixed assets of Netflix are its information technology assets, followed by its headquarters and DVD mailing operations. Amazon also provides streaming services, media downloads, and other electronic products. In addition, Amazon sells a wide ® assortment of merchandise and markets Kindle products. This broader assortment of activities requires more extensive use of fixed assets beyond information technology, including warehouses and equipment. These additional fixed assets are the cause of Amazon’s lower fixed asset turnover ratio.

CHAPTER 9

Long-Term Assets: Fixed and Intangible

MAD 9–2 (Concluded) b. Delta Air Lines has the largest fixed asset turnover ratio (by 0.1) and, thus, is slightly more efficient in using fixed assets than the other two airlines. Delta’s sales are $1.10 for every dollar of fixed assets, which is slightly better than Southwest Airlines and Alaska Air. c. The efficient use of aircraft can yield a higher fixed asset turnover ratio. An airline can increase aircraft efficiency by maximizing the number of seats sold on a flight. This is called the load factor. The higher the load factor, the more efficient is the aircraft’s use in generating revenues. High load factors are often obtained by matching aircraft size and capacity with the demand for seats. Other than filling seats, airlines can maximize aircraft efficiency by minimizing the ground time between flights. This can be accomplished with improved scheduling, maintenance, and operating procedures.

MAD 9–3 a. Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio = =

Sales Average Book Value of Fixed Assets $133,613 ($99,696 + $94,833) ÷ 2

= 1.4

b. Verizon earns $1.40 of revenue for every dollar of fixed assets. Telecommunications requires a significant investment in the network in order to generate revenues. The industry average fixed asset turnover ratio is approximately 1.1. Thus, Verizon is using its fixed assets more efficiently in generating revenues than the industry as a whole. The reason would require further analysis into the nature of Verizon’s fixed assets and revenues, but is likely related to having high data volume on its network.

CHAPTER 9

Long-Term Assets: Fixed and Intangible

MAD 9–4 (Concluded) c. The fixed asset turnover is a measure of how efficiently revenue is generated from underlying fixed assets. In the case of UPS, the fixed assets represent all fixed assets necessary to deliver packages from one location to another. These include aircraft, trucks, sorting and handling facilities, and information technology. For every dollar of these fixed assets, UPS is able to generate $3.00 in sales. The fixed asset turnover ratio will be influenced by the degree these assets are utilized to their optimal capacity. So, for example, optimally filled planes, trucks, and sorting centers will cause the fixed asset turnover ratio to improve.

Alphabet:

Walmart:

$572,754 $93,358

=

6.1

b. Comcast’s and Alphabet’s fixed asset turnover ratios are significantly less than Walmart’s. This means Comcast and Alphabet are less efficient at generating sales from fixed assets than Walmart. For Comcast, this can be explained by the nature of its business. Comcast must build a complete cable network in order to earn revenues. This includes underground cable through cities, neighborhoods, and individual residences. In addition, Comcast must provide the additional technology to carry broadband over this network. As a result, Comcast has a significant investment in fixed assets in order to earn revenues. Alphabet has a significant investment in servers; however, these servers are able to generate advertising revenue more efficiently than Comcast is able to earn subscription revenues over its cable network. As Alphabet’s business diversifies into areas requiring more fixed asset investments, its fixed asset ratio has decreased. Walmart’s major fixed assets are its stores. However, Walmart’s other major asset is merchandise inventory, which is not included in the fixed asset turnover ratio. Thus, Walmart’s higher asset efficiency is only partially explained by the fixed asset turnover ratio. The inventory turnover ratio would also need to be analyzed to fully appreciate Walmart’s efficiency in using its total assets. The other two companies do not have merchandise inventory, so the fixed asset turnover ratio is a more complete measure of their total asset efficiency relative to Walmart’s.

CHAPTER 9

Long-Term Assets: Fixed and Intangible

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 9–1 1. Estimates of the factors determining depreciation expense create a unique financial reporting challenge. Because the useful life and residual value are estimates, there is no “correct” amount. The company must use judgment along with historical data to develop estimates that fairly reflect these items. These estimates are required under GAAP and should be representationally faithful. By subjectively changing these estimates, Mike and James are manipulating financial statement information to meet earnings targets. If this manipulation goes undetected, they will likely meet the owner’s earnings targets and save their jobs. Financial statement users, however, will be harmed by this action because they will be relying on financial statement information that is not a fair representation of the company’s underlying economics. 2. In this case, both Mike and James appear to be acting unethically. The original useful life and residual value estimates were based on good faith estimates. By changing these estimates in order to meet an earnings goal, they have both knowingly manipulated financial statement estimates to improve the company’s reported earnings. Mike and James have used the subjectivity in these estimates inappropriately. The result is a depreciation expense amount that does not faithfully represent the depreciation associated with the equipment. TIF 9–2 A sample solution based on McDonald’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, follows: 1. a.

b.

c. d. e.

Depreciation is determined on a straight-line basis. The following estimated useful lives are used: buildings—up to 40 years; leasehold improvements—the lesser of useful lives or lease terms; equipment—3 to 12 years. The company does not separately report depreciation expense on the face of the income statement. However, the amount of depreciation can be obtained from footnotes to the financial statements and is reported at $1,530.7 million. $41,916.6 million (Property and Equipment Note and balance sheet). $24,720.6 million (Property and Equipment Note and balance sheet). The only intangible asset that McDonald’s reports is goodwill. Goodwill is reported at $2,782.5 million.

2. No. Book value is the difference between the fixed asset account and its related accumulated depreciation account.

TIF 9–3 To: Chief Financial Officer, Godwin Co. From: IMA Student Re: Financial Statement Effects of Modifications to Trucks 1 and 2 The modification to Truck 1 is an example of an asset improvement. After this truck was placed into service, a hydraulic lift was added to the truck. This change increased the capabilities of the truck. As a result, the cost of the hydraulic lift is added to the cost of the truck and depreciated over the truck’s remaining useful life. Because the cost of the delivery truck will be increased, depreciation expense for the truck will also increase. Truck 2 is an example of an extraordinary repair. The overhaul of the engine extends the truck’s useful life, allowing it to operate for a longer period than originally estimated. As a result, the cost of the engine overhaul is recorded as a decrease in the truck’s accumulated depreciation. The truck’s remaining book value is depreciated over the extended useful life of the truck. TIF 9–4 You should explain to Nolan and Stacy that it is acceptable to maintain two sets of records for tax and financial reporting purposes. This can happen when a company uses one method for financial statement purposes, such as straight-line depreciation, and another method for tax purposes, such as MACRS depreciation. This should not be surprising because the methods for taxes and financial statements are established by two different groups with different objectives. That is, tax laws and related accounting methods are established by Congress. The Internal Revenue Service then applies the laws and, in some cases, issues interpretations of the law and congressional intent. The primary objective of the tax laws is to generate revenue in an equitable manner for government use. Generally accepted accounting principles, on the other hand, are established primarily by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The objective of generally accepted accounting principles is the preparation and reporting of true economic conditions and results of operations of business entities. You might note, however, that companies are required in their tax returns to reconcile differences in accounting methods. For example, income reported on the company’s financial statements must be reconciled with taxable income. Finally, you might also indicate to Nolan and Stacy that even generally accepted accounting principles allow for alternative methods of accounting for the same transactions or economic events. For example, a company could use straight-line depreciation for some assets and double-declining-balance depreciation for other assets.

TIF 9–5 (Concluded) 2. The first analysis of unplanned shutdowns by machine type could be used by Natalie to isolate problem machines. For example, machine type Magna V 130 has no unplanned shutdowns. In contrast, machine type Magna V 280 has four shutdowns and Magna V 30 has three shutdowns. Of the individual machines, Magna V 280-4 and Magna V 30-2 have the most shutdowns with two unplanned shutdowns each. The second analysis provides information as to whether the shutdown costs are related to a specific product type. This analysis indicates that there were no shutdowns related to the medical devices. The highest shutdown cost of $33,602 was related to automobile products, while toys generated only $4,500 in shutdown costs. Natalie could use this analysis to consider increasing maintenance on the machines when they are being used to make automobile products. In contrast, Natalie might consider decreasing the maintenance on machines while they are being used to make medical devices. Since some unexpected shutdowns will occur and the total cost for the toys of $31,500 is the lowest, Natalie might consider monitoring the maintenance and shutdown costs for toys over a longer period.

An advantage of using a separate payroll bank account is that reconciling the bank statements is simplified. In addition, a payroll bank account establishes control over payroll checks and, thus, prevents their theft or misuse.

6.

The vacation pay expense should be recorded during the period in which the vacation privilege is earned.

7.

In a defined contribution plan, the company invests contributions on behalf of the employee during the employee’s working years. Normally, the employee and employer contribute to the plan. The employee’s pension depends on the total contributions and the investment returns earned on those contributions.

Each periodic payment includes (1) a repayment of the principal amount of the note and (2) a payment of interest on the outstanding balance. Interest expense decreases each period over the life of the note installment. This is because the outstanding balance of the note, upon which the interest is computed, decreases over the life of the note.

9.

To match revenues and expenses properly, the liability to cover product warranties should be recorded in the period during which the sale of the product is recorded.

10.

When the defective product is repaired, the repair costs would be recorded by debiting Product Warranty Payable and crediting Cash, Supplies, or another appropriate account.

The quick ratio of Adieu Company has improved from 1.5 in 20Y3 to 1.6 in 20Y4. This increase is the result of small decreases in the three types of quick assets (cash, temporary investments, and accounts receivable) compared to the larger decrease in the current liability, accounts payable. The increase shows Adieu to be in a better position to pay current liabilities within a short period of time.

(1) $150,000 simple-interest note: $150,000 proceeds (2) $150,000 discounted note: $150,000 – $750 interest = $149,250 proceeds

c.

Alternative (1) is more favorable to the borrower because the borrower has use of a greater amount of cash (proceeds of $150,000 compared to $149,250) but pays the same amount of interest ($750). This can be verified by comparing the effective interest rates for each loan as follows: Situation (1): 4.0% effective interest rate ($750 × 360 ÷ 45) ÷ $150,000 = 4.0% Situation (2): 4.02% effective interest rate ($750 × 360 ÷ 45) ÷ $149,250 = 4.02% The effective interest rate is higher for the discounted note because the creditor lent only $149,250 in return for $750 interest over 45 days. In the undiscounted note, the creditor must lend $150,000 for 45 days to earn the same $750 interest.

Ex. 10–14 Big Howie’s Hot Dog Stand does have an internal control procedure that should detect the payroll error. Before funds are transferred from the regular bank account to the payroll account, the owner/manager authorizes the total amount of the week’s payroll. The owner/manager should catch the error, since the extra 60 hours will cause the weekly payroll to be substantially higher than usual. The owner/manager should sign the paychecks, thereby restricting access to cash by employees who are responsible for record keeping.

d.

Inappropriate. Access to the check-signing machine should be restricted.

If employees are allowed to accumulate their vacation pay, then the estimated vacation pay that will not be taken in the current year will be reported as a long-term liability. When employees take vacations, the liability for vacation pay is decreased.

In a defined contribution plan, the company invests contributions on behalf of the employee during the employee’s working years. Normally, the employee and employer contribute to the plan. The employee’s pension depends on the total contributions and the investment return on those contributions. In a defined benefit plan, the company pays the employee a fixed annual amount based on a formula. The employer is obligated to pay for (fund) the employee’s future pension benefits.

Ex. 10–18 The $5,428 million unfunded pension liability is the approximate amount of the pension obligation that exceeds the value of the net assets of the pension plan. Apparently, Procter & Gamble has underfunded its plan relative to the obligation that has accrued over time. This can occur when the company contributes less to the plan than the annual pension cost or the expected liability grows faster than the assets of the pension plan. The obligation grows yearly by the amount of the periodic pension cost. Thus, the $340 million periodic pension cost is a measure of the amount of pension earned by employees during the year. The annual pension cost is determined by making assumptions about employee life expectancies, employee turnover, expected compensation levels, and interest.

The warranty liability represents estimated outstanding automobile warranty claims. Of these claims, $3,769 million is estimated to be due during the next 12 months, while the remainder ($6,005 million) is expected to be paid in a later year. The distinction between short- and long-term liabilities is important to creditors in order to accurately evaluate the near-term cash demands on the business relative to the quick current assets and other longer-term demands. 4,782,000,000

In order for a product warranty to be reported as a liability in the financial statements, it must qualify as a contingent liability. Contingent liabilities are only reported as liabilities on the balance sheet if it is probable that the liability will occur and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable.

The company experienced a hazardous materials spill at one of its plants during the previous period. This spill has resulted in a number of lawsuits to which the company is a party. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has fined the company $240,000, which the company is contesting in court. Although the company does not admit fault, legal counsel believes that the fine payment is probable. In addition, an employee has sued the company. A $125,000 out-of-court settlement has been reached with the employee. The EPA fine and out-of-court settlement have been recognized as an expense for the period. There is one other outstanding lawsuit related to this incident. Counsel does not believe that the lawsuit has merit. Other lawsuits and unknown liabilities may arise from this incident.

c.

Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities Amazon:

$161,580 – $142,266 = $19,314

Best Buy:

$10,539 – $10,674 = $(135)

Current Ratio =

Current Assets Current Liabilities

Amazon:

$161,580 $142,266

= 1.1

Best Buy:

$10,539 $10,674

= 1.0

Quick Ratio =

Quick Assets Current Liabilities

Amazon:

$36,220 + $59,829 + $32,891 $142,266

= 0.9

Best Buy:

$2,936 + $1,042 $10,674

= 0.4

d. Working capital is not a good measure for comparing the liquidity of two companies of different sizes. In this case, Amazon’s current assets are over 15 times larger than Best Buy’s. Thus, the comparison is not very meaningful. Ratios are a better relative measure of comparison across companies of different sizes. e. Amazon’s current ratio is 1.1, while Best Buy’s is 1.0. Thus, the current ratio indicates Amazon has a slightly stronger liquidity position than Best Buy. f. Best Buy’s quick ratio is 0.4, while Amazon’s is 0.9. Thus, the quick ratio indicates that Best Buy has a weaker short-term debt-paying ability than Amazon. g. The difference between the current ratio and the quick ratio is best understood by looking at the vertical analysis of the assets to total current assets for the two companies as follows: Amazon Best Buy Current assets: Cash……………………………………………………………… 22.4% 27.8% Short-term investments………………………………………… 37.0% 0.0% Accounts receivable…………………………………………… 20.4% 9.9% Inventories………………………………………………………… 20.2% 56.6% 0.0% 5.7% Other current assets…………………………………………… Total current assets………………………………………… 100.0% 100.0%

CHAPTER 10

Liabilities: Current, Installment Notes, and Contingencies

MAD 10–1 (Concluded) Amazon has 59.4% (22.4% + 37.0%) of its current assets consisting of cash and short-term investments, compared to 27.8% for Best Buy. This difference will improve Amazon’s quick ratio relative to Best Buy’s. Best Buy has 56.6% of its current assets in inventory, while Amazon only has 20.2% of current assets in inventory. This difference reflects Amazon’s pure Internet strategy, which requires it to hold a smaller proportion of inventory. It also causes the relationship between the current and quick ratios to diverge between the two companies. MAD 10–2 a.

$1,507,759 – $1,015,240 = $492,519 $5,165,000 – $4,077,000 = $1,088,000

Abercrombie:

$1,507,759 $1,015,240

The Gap:

= 0.9

$877,000 $4,077,000

= 0.2

d. Working capital is not a good measure for comparing the liquidity of two companies of different sizes. In this case, The Gap’s current assets are almost 3 1/2 times larger than Abercrombie’s. Thus, the comparison is not very meaningful. Ratios are a better relative measure of comparison across companies of different sizes. Based on both the currrent ratio and the quick ratio, Abercrombie has a stronger liquidity position than The Gap.

MAD 10–3 a. Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities Year 1: $2,117,102 – $2,008,793 = $108,309 Year 2: $2,977,905 – $1,891,745 = $1,086,160 Year 3: $2,246,206 – $2,493,313 = $(247,107) b. Current Ratio =

Year 2:

Year 3:

$2,246,206 $2,493,313

= 0.9

Quick Ratio =

Quick Assets Current Liabilities

Year 1:

$493,262 + $568,509 $2,008,793

Year 2:

$1,143,987 + $615,233 = 0.9 $1,891,745

Year 3:

$329,266 + $671,464 $2,493,313

= 0.5

= 0.4

d. The quick ratio at the end of Year 1 was 0.5, indicating a tight short-term coverage of current liabilities with quick assets. This is less of a concern because inventory turns into cash relatively quickly for Hershey (a food company). This ratio rose to 0.9 and then fell to 0.4 over the subsequent years. A quick ratio below 1.0 indicates Hershey maintained a tight quick asset coverage of short-term obligations. e. The current ratio shows a similar pattern of liquidity, with an improvement in Year 2 and a decline in Year 3. The working capital for Year 3 is the only year in which this number is negative. It appears Hershey’s overall liquidity is declining.

CHAPTER 10

Liabilities: Current, Installment Notes, and Contingencies

MAD 10–4 a. Kohl’s has almost 1.6 times the current assets of Nordstrom. Thus, using working capital as a basis for making relative liquidity comparisons between the two firms would not be meaningful. b.

Quick Ratio =

Quick Assets Current Liabilities

Nordstrom:

$322 = 0.10 $3,314

Kohl’s:

$1,587 = 0.48 $3,286

c. Kohl’s quick ratio of 0.48 is almost 5 times that of Nordstrom’s 0.10. Both companies have a quick ratio of less than 1.0. The small quick ratios can be partially explained by both companies only having cash as their primary quick asset. Neither company has accounts receivable because they sell to consumers using credit cards or cash. In addition, inventory is a large part of each company’s current asset structure, and inventory is not included in quick assets. Nordstrom is a luxury fashion brand. Kohl’s aims for a more moderately priced portion of the market. Thus, we would expect Nordstrom’s more costly inventory to be a larger percentage of its current assets compared to Kohl’s. These differences partly account for the difference in the quick ratios between the two companies. Even so, the quick ratios of both companies are very small and will require each to carefully manage its working capital and supplier payments.

MAD 10–5 a. The gift cards represent unearned revenue (a liability). The gift cards have been pre-purchased and represent a form of cash to the holder. As such, gift card sales are not considered revenue at the time of sale. Rather, the cash received in advance is considered unearned revenue until the holder uses the gift card to purchase merchandise.

$2,643,205 + $68,263 = 1.0 $2,712,680

d. Using both the current and quick ratios, Dick’s Sporting Goods appears to have a stronger liquidity position than does Hibbett. The current ratio for Hibbett is 1.4, compared to 1.9 for Dick’s. The quick ratio is 0.2 for Hibbett, compared to 1.0 for Dick’s. The quick ratio for Hibbett indicates a tight quick asset coverage of shortterm obligations; however, Dick’s Sporting Goods’ quick ratio is very strong. Both stores have substantial amounts in inventory that should help generate cash when sales are made.

CHAPTER 10

Liabilities: Current, Installment Notes, and Contingencies

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 10–1 1. Cannally and Kennedy is not obligated to pay a bonus to its employees under any circumstances. The decision to pay a bonus is entirely discretionary. Companies frequently decide to discontinue or suspend annual bonuses for a variety of reasons, including deteriorating economic conditions, poor company or divisional performance, and alternative cash needs within the business. Even though the firm paid a two-week bonus for 10 straight years, it is not obligated to pay a bonus in Year 11. Thus, the firm is not behaving unethically for reducing the bonus. 2. Tonya Latirno, on the other hand, is behaving unethically. Feeling that she is being cheated, Tonya is attempting to replace the bonus by working overtime that is not required. This behavior is fraudulent if the overtime is unnecessary, even though Tonya is actually present on the job during the overtime hours. Tonya is incorrect in thinking that her behavior is justified because she did not receive the full twoweek bonus. In fact, this behavior would not be justified even if she had a legitimate claim against the company. If she had a claim or grievance against the firm, then it should be handled through proper human resource or legal means. TIF 10–2 1.

The so-called “underground economy” hides transactions from IRS scrutiny by conducting business with cash (not check or credit card, which leaves an audit trail). The intent in many such transactions is to evade income tax illegally. However, just because a transaction is in cash does not exempt it from taxation. Tina Song also appears to perform construction services on a cash basis to evade reporting income while paying employees with cash to avoid paying social security and Medicare payroll taxes. The IRS reports that nearly 86% of the persons convicted of evading employment taxes were sentenced to an average of 17 months in prison and ordered to make restitution to the government for the taxes evaded plus interest and penalties.

Marvin should respond that he would rather receive a payroll check as a normal employee. As an employee, receiving cash rather than a payroll check subverts the U.S. tax system. That is, such cash payments do not include deductions for payroll taxes, as required by law. That is why, for example, cash tips must be formally reported to the IRS and subjected to payroll tax deductions by the employer. In addition, if Marvin followed Tina’s advice, Marvin not only would be avoiding payroll deductions but also would be underreporting income. This would subject Marvin to potential fines and possible criminal prosecution for underreporting income.

Contingent liabilities are discussed in Notes 10 and 16 and include contingent rent related to leases and lawsuits.

4.

Long-term debt of $998.9 million will come due in the coming year (balance sheet).

TIF 10–4 Memo To: From: Re:

U. D. Mach III A+ Student Financial Reporting of Series 3 Shock Absorber Lawsuit

The customer lawsuit filed against WBM Motorworks arising from cracks in Series 3 motorcycle front shock absorbers creates a potential liability for the company. The way in which this potential liability is reported in the financial statements depends on two factors: the likelihood of losing the lawsuit and whether the amount of the loss can be measured. If the likelihood that the lawsuit will be lost is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably measured, then both a loss and a liability should be recorded in the accounts. If the likelihood that a loss will occur is only reasonably possible, then the potential liability should be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not be recorded in the accounts. Based on the information that exists at this time, it appears that a loss should be recorded on the income statement and a liability should be recorded on the balance sheet. The discovery of a manufacturing defect and the associated recall significantly increases the likelihood that the company will lose the lawsuit if it is taken to trial. While a direct link has not been made between the manufacturing defect and the shock absorber failure, the voluntary recall would make it difficult for a jury to disconnect the manufacturing defect from the product failure. As a result, I believe it is probable that the lawsuit will be lost if the case goes to trial. In addition, the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Similar lawsuits against other manufacturers have been settled for $2,000,000, which indicates that the amount can be estimated with reasonable accuracy. Since the potential loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, the company should record a loss on the income statement and a liability on the balance sheet.

CHAPTER 10

Liabilities: Current, Installment Notes, and Contingencies

TIF 10–4 (Concluded) An alternative argument could be made that the uncertainty surrounding the connection between the manufacturing defect and the cracked shock absorber is too uncertain to classify the likelihood of losing the lawsuit as probable. Rather, the likelihood of losing the lawsuit would be classified as reasonably possible. In this case, the lawsuit would be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, but no loss or liability would be reported in the financial statements. It should be noted that considerable judgment is necessary in distiguishing between classes of contingent liabilities. This is especially true when distinguishing between probable and reasonably possible contingent liabilities, as is the case in this scenario. TIF 10–5 Sumana’s interpretation of the pension issue is correct. The employee earns the pension during the working years. The pension is part of the employee’s compensation that is deferred until retirement. Thus, Felton should record an expense equal to the amount of pension benefit earned by the employee for the period. This gives rise to the rather complex issue of estimating the amount of the pension expense. Francie indicates that the complexity of this calculation makes determining the annual pension expense impossible. This is not so. There are a number of mathematical and statistical approaches (termed “actuarial” approaches) that can reliably estimate the amount of benefits earned by the workforce for a given year. As a side note, Francie’s perspective can be summarized as “pay as you go.” In her interpretation, there is no expense until a pension is paid to the retiree. Failing to account for pension promises when they are earned is not considered sound accounting.

Corwin LTD could use these analyses to improve or change its supplier relationships. The “average days to receive an order” analysis indicates that Baumbach Group with an average of over 30 days and Liberty Sales with an average of over 34 days are the slowest in filling orders. This delay in filling orders could result in out-ofstock items and lost sales. Corwin LTD should contact these suppliers for an explanation as to why their orders are taking so long. Western Supply, Inc. is not as slow as Baumbach Group and Liberty Sales in filling orders, at just over 16 days. However, since Western Supply, Inc. also had the most returns (see analysis of returns), it should be contacted and its performance closely monitored in the future. The “partial order” analysis indicates that Baumbach Group and Core-Mark each have two partial orders during the month. The fact that Baumbach Group is slow in filling orders (see analysis of average days to receive an order) and is not filling complete orders is a red flag for using this supplier. The “returns” analysis indicates that merchandise was returned to Western Supply, Inc. and Wholesale Solutions. Corwin LTD might monitor these suppliers in the future to determine whether returns to these suppliers is a continuing problem. The “back order” analysis indicates that Tradeshop LLC had one back order, while Wholesale Solutions had two back orders during the month. The fact that Wholesale Solutions also had a returned order during the month is a red flag. The performance of Wholesale Solutions should probably be monitored closely for the next several months.

CHAPTER 11 LIABILITIES: BONDS PAYABLE DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

(1) To pay the face (maturity) amount of the bonds at a specified date. (2) To pay periodic interest at a specified percentage of the face amount.

2.

a.

Bonds that may be exchanged for other securities under specified conditions.

b.

The issuing company reserves the right to redeem the bonds before the maturity date.

3.

Less than face amount. Because comparable bonds provide a market interest rate (12%) that is greater than the rate on the bond being issued (11%), the bond will sell at a discount as the market’s means of equalizing the two interest rates.

8.

A bond is an interest-bearing note that requires periodic interest payments and repayment of the face amount of the bonds at maturity. Bonds consist of two different components: (1) interest payments made periodically over the life of the bond and (2) the face amount that must be repaid at maturity. The periodic payments consist entirely of interest, and the final payment at maturity consists entirely of principal. Installment notes, on the other hand, have periodic payments that consist partially of interest and partially of principal. Each payment reduces the principal on the note so that at maturity the entire amount borrowed will have been repaid.

9.

a.

As a current liability on the balance sheet.

b.

As a long-term liability on the balance sheet.

Liabilities: Bonds Payable

MAKE A DECISION MAD 11–1 a. Times Interest Earned =

Income Before Income Tax Expense + Interest Expense Interest Expense

Amazon: Year 1:

$24,178 + $1,647 = 15.7 $1,647

Year 2:

$38,151 + $1,809 = 22.1 $1,809

Year 1:

$20,564 + $1,976 $1,976

= 11.4

Year 2:

$18,696 + $1,674 $1,674

= 12.2

Walmart:

b. Amazon’s times interest earned ratio increased, going from 15.7 in Year 1 to 22.1 in Year 2. This increase is due to a significantly greater percentage increase in income before taxes of 57.8% [($38,151 – $24,178) ÷ $24,178] than the percentage increase in interest expense of 9.8% [($1,809 – $1,647) ÷ $1,647]. The interest coverage indicated by these ratios suggests that Amazon will be able to cover interest payments from current-period income before tax. c. A times interest earned ratio less than 1.0 does not necessarily mean that a company will default on its loans. Creditors are paid from cash, and cash can be received from owner contributions, other loans, and operations. These sources can be used to pay interest charges while operating earnings remain weak. The ability to make interest payments ultimately rests on cash flow. However, a low times interest earned ratio provides an early warning signal. A company often has time to improve operations so that a weak ratio can turn into a stronger ratio over time. However, a ratio less than 1.0 over a period of time will indicate potential problems in making interest payments. d. Walmart’s times interest earned ratio increased from 11.4 in Year 1 to 12.2 in Year 2. This increase is due to a smaller percentage decrease in income before taxes of 9.1% [($20,564 – $18,696) ÷ $20,564] than the percentage decrease in interest expense of 15.3% [($1,976 – $1,674) ÷ $1,976]. Walmart’s interest coverage indicates a healthy protection for interest payments to creditors. e. Both companies have similar protection for interest coverage as indicated by the times interest earned ratios, which show a period-to-period increase.

Procter & Gamble:

Income Before Income Tax Expense + Interest Expense Interest Expense $900 + $99 $99

= 10.1

$17,615 + $502 $502

= 36.1

b. Procter & Gamble has a times interest earned ratio of 36.1, which is much higher than Clorox’s ratio of 10.1. Both companies’ ratios are more than sufficient and demonstrate protection for creditors.

MAD 11-3 a. Times Interest Earned =

Liabilities: Bonds Payable

MAD 11–3 (Concluded) b.

c. While the times interest earned ratio is unfavorable in Year 3, there is strong positive movement in Year 4. The ratio in Years 1, 2, and 4 clearly demonstrates adequate interest coverage. Interest expense was relatively stable in Years 1–2 and increased in Years 3–4. This increasing interest expense in Year 4 and even greater increase in pretax income led to the improvement in the times interest earned ratio. This positive trend is good news for investors. d. While interest expense did increase in Year 3, the decrease in the ratio was caused by decreased income. This was caused by decreased sales as well as increased expenses due to disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Liabilities: Bonds Payable

MAD 11–4 a.

Times Interest Earned =

Income Before Income Tax Expense + Interest Expense Interest Expense

Hilton:

$560 + $397 $397

= 2.4

Marriott:

$1,180 + $420 $420

= 3.8

b. The times interest earned ratio is 2.4 for Hilton and 3.8 for Marriott. Using this ratio, we can conclude that Marriott’s earnings provide its creditors greater protection of their interest charges than Hilton’s earnings provide to its creditors. However, both companies provide more than adequate protection for creditors’ interest coverage.

CHAPTER 11

Liabilities: Bonds Payable

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 11–1 CEG’s actions were technically legal; it did not violate any laws. However, this action could damage the company’s reputation. If investors perceive that the company is not acting fairly in its dealings with them, then the company may find it difficult to issue additional debt in the future. This case is based on a real-world situation, where GE Capital, a division of General Electric, announced a follow-up long-term bond issue within days of an initial debt issue. The company’s actions created a significant public relations problem for the company. Here are some of the reactions from investors: “A lot of people feel like they have been sorely used,” said one bond fund manager. “There was nothing illegal about it, but it was nasty.” “But then to find out two days later that they had filed a $50 billion shelf?” he said. “People buy GE because it’s like buying Treasuries, not because they want to get jerked around.” “An example of a lack of candor. It was the most recent and most egregious example of how bondholders are mistreated.” In response to the criticisms, GE Capital released the following public statement: “With the $11 billion bond issuance of March 13, GE Capital exhausted its existing debt shelf registration; consequently, on March 20, GE Capital filed a $50 billion shelf registration.” The release went on to indicate that the shelf filing was not an offering and that it would be used in part to roll over $31 billion in maturing long-term debt. In retrospect, GE Capital could have been a little more forthcoming about its financing plans prior to selling the $11 billion of bonds, but there was nothing unethical or illegal about its actions. TIF 11–2 A sample solution based on Clorox’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, follows: 1. a. $2,484 million (balance sheet) b. Yes. See table below.

TIF 11–2 (Concluded) 2.

Clorox’s long-term debt is 39.2% ($2,484 ÷ $6,334) of its total assets, and it’s longterm debt is more than 4 times its equity ($2,484 of long-term debt compared to $592 of equity).

TIF 11–3 To: From: Re:

Liz Nolan A+ Student Bond Redemption

I have reviewed the proposed redemption of the company’s 7% bonds and the subsequent issuance of new 5% bonds and have concluded that this is a good financial decision for the company. My assessment is based on a comparison of the redemption price to the proceeds from the new bond issuance and the interest savings from the new bond issue. The proceeds from the new 5% bond issue will be $30,000 less than what is needed to redeem the existing 7% bonds. The company will receive $1,000,000 from issuing the new 5% bonds at face amount, but will have to pay $1,030,000 ($1,000,000 × 103) to redeem the outstanding bonds. Thus, it will cost the company $30,000 to replace the existing 7% bonds with new 5% bonds. However, the new 5% bonds will pay less interest semiannually than the existing 7% bonds, resulting in interest savings of $100,000 over the next five years. These savings were calculated as follows: Interest 7% Bonds 5% Bonds Savings Face amount…………………………………… $1,000,000 $1,000,000 7.0% 5.0% × Contract rate of interest…………………… 0.5 0.5 × Term…………………………………………… Semiannual interest payment……………… $ 35,000 $ 25,000 $ 10,000 10 × Number of interest periods remaining…………………………………………… × Total interest savings…………………………………………………………………… $100,000 The interest savings of $100,000 are significantly larger than the $30,000 redemption premium, resulting in a $70,000 savings to the company. However, the company must also consider the impact of the time value of money on these savings. The $70,000 in interest savings occurs over the next five years, with the company saving $10,000 on every semiannual interest payment. Because these savings are in the future, they must be discounted back to today to determine their present value. Using the market rate of interest of 5%, the present value of these savings is calculated as follows: Semiannual interest savings………………………………………………………… Present value factor of an annuity of $1 at compound interest (n = 10, i = 5%)………………………………………………………………………… Present value of interest savings……………………………………………………

$10,000.00 × 7.72173

$77,217.30

On a present value basis, the company is saving $77,217.30 in interest costs, while paying a $30,000 redemption premium to repurchase the bonds. This results in a $47,217.30 savings to the company. The company should proceed with the plan. 11-24 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

CHAPTER 12 ACCOUNTING FOR PARTNERSHIPS AND LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. The main advantages for: a. Proprietorship: Ease of formation and nontaxable entity. b. Partnership: Expanded owner expertise and capital, nontaxable entity, and moderate complexity of formation. c. Limited liability company: Limited liability to owners, expanded access to capital, nontaxable entity, and moderate complexity of formation. 2. The disadvantages of a partnership are that its life is limited, each partner has unlimited liability, one partner can bind the partnership to contracts, and raising large amounts of capital is more difficult for a partnership than a limited liability company. 3. Yes. A partnership may incur losses in excess of the total investment of all partners. The division of losses among the partners is made according to their agreement. In addition, because of the unlimited liability of each partner for partnership debts, a particular partner may lose a greater amount than his or her capital balance. 4. The partnership agreement (partnership) or operating agreement (LLC) establishes the incomesharing ratio among the partners (members), amounts to be invested, and admission and withdrawal of partners (members). In addition, for an LLC, the operating agreement specifies whether the LLC is owner-managed or manager-managed. 5. No. Maholic would have to bear his share of losses. In the absence of any agreement as to division of net income or net loss, his share would be one-third. In addition, because of the unlimited liability of each partner, Maholic may have to bear more than one-third of the losses if one partner is unable to absorb his or her share of the losses. 6. Yes. Partnership net income is divided according to the income-sharing ratio, regardless of the amount of the withdrawals by the partners. Therefore, it is very likely that the partners’ monthly withdrawals from a partnership will not equal their shares of net income exactly. 7. a. Debit the partner’s drawing account and credit Cash. b. No. Payments to partners and the division of net income are separate. The amount of one does not affect the amount of the other. c. Debit the revenue accounts, credit the expense accounts, and credit the partners’ capital accounts for their respective shares of the net income. 8. a. By purchase of an interest, the capital interest of the new partner is obtained from the old partner, and neither the total assets nor the total equity of the partnership is affected. b. By investment, both the total assets and the total equity of the partnership are increased.

CHAPTER 12

Accounting for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS (Continued) 9. It is important to state all partnership assets in terms of current prices at the time of the admission of a new partner because failure to do so might result in participation by the new partner in gains or losses attributable to the period prior to admission to the partnership. To illustrate, assume that A and B share net income and net loss equally and operate a partnership that owns land recorded at and costing $20,000. C is admitted to the partnership, and the three partners share in income equally. The day after C is admitted to the partnership, the land is sold for $35,000, and because the land was not revalued, C receives a one-third distribution of the $15,000 gain. In this case, C participates in the gain attributable to the period prior to admission to the partnership. 10. A new partner who is expected to improve the fortunes (income) of the partnership through such things as reputation or skill might be given equity in excess of the amount invested to join the partnership.

$4,400,000 = $110,000 per employee 40 employees

20Y2:

$3,894,000 = $118,000 per employee 33 employees

b. Makeman Architects reduced revenues by $506,000 ($4,400,000 – $3,894,000), or 11.5% ($506,000 ÷ $4,400,000). The number of employees declined by 7, or 17.5% (7 ÷ 40). The decline in revenue was less than the decline in the number of employees; thus, the revenue per employee improved between the two years. The firm is more efficient in generating revenues from its staff resources between the two years.

CHAPTER 12

Accounting for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

Ex. 12–6 a. The partners can divide net income in any ratio they wish. However, in the absence of an agreement, net income is divided equally between the partners. Therefore, Wanda’s conclusion was correct but for the wrong reasons. In addition, note that the monthly drawings have no impact on the division of income. These drawings are not the same as a salary allowance, which is part of a formal incomesharing agreement. b. An income-sharing agreement could be designed to credit each partner’s capital account for her respective share of income. For example, an income-sharing agreement could be designed to credit Wanda for interest on her capital contribution, whereas a salary allowance could be designed to credit Ava for the greater effort she puts into the partnership. After deducting for these items, the remaining income could be divided equally. Ex. 12–7 a. Net income: $148,000 Farley $40,000 46,800 Net income………………………… $86,800

Note: The reduction in members’ equity from withdrawals would be disclosed on the statement of members’ equity. c. If the net income of the LLC was less than the sum of the salary allowances, both members would still be credited with their salary allowances. From this amount, each partner would deduct his or her share of the excess of the total salary allowance over the net income. Thus, the difference between the net income and total salary allowances would be allocated to each partner as a deduction, according to the income-sharing ratio.

e. An income-sharing agreement provides flexibility and fairness. Without an incomesharing agreement, each member would be credited with an equal proportion of the total earnings, or one-third each. However, the members provide different capital and effort to the LLC. VC Partners is a large contributor of capital (funds), while Colin Campella is providing ongoing effort and expertise. These separate contributions should be acknowledged in the income-sharing formula. Thus, the agreement credits member equity for both interest on capital and a salary allowance for Campella. Any remaining income is credited to capital according to a negotiated allocation, which in this case is not an equal amount to each member.

Tangible assets should be adjusted to current market prices so that the new partner does not share in any gains or losses from changes in market prices prior to being admitted. For example, if the market price of land doubled prior to admitting a new partner, the existing partners should realize the increase in the value of the land in their capital accounts prior to the new partner’s admission. Otherwise, the new partner would share in the increase in the market value of the land.

c. Apparently, Jenkins and Tanner value the expertise offered by Solano. Solano is able to use the computer to design and render landscape designs. This type of skill is likely to be very useful for both selling and implementing landscape ideas. Her skills can help the partnership sell ideas to clients by providing computer renderings of the designs. In this way, a client can see the design on the computer before agreeing to the work. In addition, the computer-aided landscapes provide materials plans, labor estimates, and other cost estimates for a particular design. Thus, the partners may be better able to control their costs by using Solano’s skills. Overall, they value her skills sufficiently to provide a partner bonus upon her admittance to the partnership.

$300,000 75,000 $375,000 20% × $ 75,000 (75,000) $ 0

Net income distribution: The income-sharing ratio is equal to the proportion of the capital balances after admitting Campbell according to the partnership agreement: Dennis Overton:

$180,000 $375,000

= 48%

Ben Testerman:

$120,000 $375,000

= 32%

Randy Campbell:

$75,000 $375,000

= 20%

These ratios can be multiplied by the $110,000 remaining income after the salary allowance to Overton ($150,000 – $40,000). These amounts are credited to the respective partner capital accounts. For example, Dennis Overton: $52,800 = $110,000 × 48%.

Ex. 12–15 (Concluded) Withdrawals: Half of the remaining income is distributed to the three partners. Overton need not take the salary allowance as a withdrawal but may allow it to accumulate in the member equity account. He is taking half of the allowance as a withdrawal.

$57,000 $190,000

= 30%

Silver Streams, LLC:

$133,000 $190,000

= 70%

CHAPTER 12

Ex. 12–17 (Concluded) b. Following the same procedure as in a.: Idaho Properties, LLC:

Silver Streams, LLC:

$137,500 $250,000

= 55%

Thomas Dunn:

$50,000 $250,000

= 20%

c. Thomas Dunn provided a $230,000 cash contribution to the business. The amount credited to his member equity account is this amount less a $10,000 bonus paid to the other two members, or $220,000. d. The positive entries to Idaho Properties and Silver Streams are the result of a bonus paid by Thomas Dunn. e. Thomas Dunn acquired a 22% interest in the business on January 1, 20Y4, computed as follows: Thomas Dunn, member equity………………………… Idaho Properties, LLC, member equity……………… Silver Streams, LLC, member equity………………… Total…………………………………………………………

$ 220,000 333,000 447,000 $1,000,000

Thomas’s ownership interest after admission ($220,000 ÷ $1,000,000)…………………………………

22%

f. Withdrawals need not be the same as the income credited to the members’ equity accounts. Withdrawals will be less than the amounts credited when the members want to retain capital in the business to support business growth or otherwise strengthen the business.

From Year 1 to Year 2, revenue per employee of $88 thousand remained the same. This was due to the fact that the percentage change in revenues of 2.6% was only slightly less than the percentage change in employees. However, in Year 3, revenue increased 14.0%, while the percentage change in employees increased 23.3%. As a result, revenue per employee decreased to $81 thousand. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic had the effect of decreasing revenue per employee during Year 3. MAD 12–2 a. Revenue per employee (rounded to nearest thousand)

From Year 1 to Year 3, revenue increased by 17.2% [($7,858,938 – $6,704,037) ÷ $6,704,037], while the number of employees increased by only 6.1% [(27,700 – 26,100) ÷ 26,100]. Thus, revenue is expanding more rapidly than the number of employees, with the result that revenue per employee is increasing.

MAD 12–3 While Accenture’s total revenue is over 6 times the total revenue of Booz Allen Hamilton, Booz Allen Hamilton has over three times the revenue per employee than does Accenture. For example, in Year 3 Booz Allen Hamilton generated $284 thousand of revenue per employee compared to only $81 thousand of revenue per employee for Accenture. Many factors may explain this difference, including the relative employee effficiency and the type and mix of consulting work of each firm.

CHAPTER 12

Accounting for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 12–1 This scenario highlights one of the problems that arises in partnerships: attempting to align contribution with income division. Often, disagreements are based on honest differences of opinion. However, in this scenario, there is evidence that Robbins was acting unethically. Robbins apparently made no mention of his plans to “scale back” once the partnership was consummated. As a result, Barrow agreed to an equal division of income based on the assumption that Robbins’s past efforts would project into the future, while in fact, Robbins had no intention of this. As a result, Barrow is now providing more effort while receiving the same income as Robbins. This is clearly not sustainable in the long term. Robbins does not appear to be concerned about this inequity. Thus, the evidence points to some duplicity on Robbins’s part. Essentially, he knows that he is riding on Barrow’s effort and had planned it that way. Barrow could respond to this situation by either withdrawing from the partnership or changing the partnership agreement. One possible change would be to provide a partner salary based on the amount of patient billings. This salary would be highly associated with the amount of revenue brought into the partnership, thus avoiding disputes associated with unequal contributions to the firm.

CHAPTER 12

Accounting for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

TIF 12–2 When developing an LLC (or partnership), the operating (or partnership) agreement is a critical part of establishing a business. Each party must consider the various incentives of each individual in the LLC. For example, in this case, one party, Lindsey Wilson, is providing all of the funding, while the other two parties are providing expertise and talent. This type of arrangement can create some natural conflicts because the interests of an investor might not be the same as those operating the LLC. Specifically, you would want to advise Wilson that not all matters should be settled by majority vote. Such a provision would allow the two noninvesting members to vote as a block to the detriment of Wilson. For example, the salaries for the two working members could be set by their vote so that little profit would be left to be distributed. This would essentially keep Wilson’s return limited to the 10% preferred return. Wilson should insist that salary allowances require unanimous approval of all members. A second issue is the division of partnership income. The suggested agreement is for all the partners to share the remaining income, after the 10% preferred return, equally. Wilson should be counseled to consider all aspects of the LLC contribution to determine whether this division is equitable. There are many considerations, including the amount of investment, risk of the venture, degree of expertise of noninvesting partners, and degree of exclusivity of noninvesting members’ effort contribution (unique skills or business connections, for example). Often, the simple assumption of equal division is not appropriate. In addition, it is sometimes best to require working members to have an investment in the LLC, even if it is small, so that they are sensitive to the perspective of financial loss.

TIF 12–3 A good solution to this problem would be to divide income into three steps: 1. Provide interest on each partner’s capital balance. 2. Provide a monthly salary for each partner. 3. Divide the remainder according to a partnership formula. With this approach, the return on capital and effort will be calculated separately in the income division formula before applying the percentage formula. Thus, Willard will receive a large interest distribution based on the large capital balance, while Hill should receive a large salary distribution based on the larger service contribution. The return on capital and salary allowances should be based on prevailing market rates. If both partners are pleased with their return on capital and effort, then the remaining income could be divided equally between them.

CHAPTER 13 CORPORATIONS: ORGANIZATION, STOCK TRANSACTIONS, AND DIVIDENDS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

No. Common stock with a higher par is not necessarily a better investment than common stock with a lower par because par is an amount assigned to the shares.

2.

The broker is not correct. Corporations are not legally liable to pay dividends until the dividends are declared. If the company that issued the preferred stock has operating losses, it could omit dividends, first, on its common stock and, later, on its preferred stock.

3.

The company may not have had enough cash on hand to pay a dividend on the common stock, or resources may be needed for plant expansion, replacement of facilities, payment of liabilities, etc.

4.

a. b.

No change. Total equity is the same.

6.

The primary purpose of a stock split is to bring about a reduction in the market price per share and thus to encourage more investors to buy the company’s shares.

It has no effect on revenue or expense. It reduces stockholders’ equity by $3,000,000.

a. b.

It has no effect on revenue. It increases stockholders’ equity by $3,750,000.

9.

The three classifications of restrictions on retained earnings are legal, contractual, and discretionary. Restrictions are normally reported in the notes to the financial statements.

10.

Such prior period adjustments should be reported as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings.

CHAPTER 13

Corporations: Organization, Stock Transactions, and Dividends

Ex. 13–21 1.

Retained earnings is not part of paid-in capital.

2.

The cost of treasury stock should be deducted from the total stockholders’ equity.

3.

Dividends payable should be included as part of current liabilities and not as part of stockholders’ equity.

4.

Common stock should be included as part of paid-in capital.

5.

The amount of shares of common stock issued of 825,000 times the par value per share of $20 should be extended as $16,500,000, not $17,655,000. The difference, $1,155,000, probably represents paid-in capital in excess of par.

6.

Organizing costs should be expensed as Organizational Expenses when incurred and not included as a part of stockholders’ equity.

One possible corrected “Stockholders’ Equity” section of the balance sheet is as follows: Stockholders’ Equity

Paid-in capital: Preferred 2% stock, $80 par (125,000 shares authorized and issued) Excess of issue price over par Paid-in capital, preferred stock Common stock, $20 par (1,000,000 shares authorized, 825,000 shares issued) Excess of issue price over par Paid-in capital, common stock Total paid-in capital Retained earnings* Total Treasury stock (75,000 shares at cost) Total stockholders’ equity

$10,000,000 500,000 $ 10,500,000 $16,500,000 1,155,000 17,655,000 $ 28,155,000 96,400,000 $124,555,000 (1,755,000) $122,800,000

* $96,700,000 – $300,000. Since the organizing costs should have been expensed, the retained earnings should be $300,000 less.

CHAPTER 13

Corporations: Organization, Stock Transactions, and Dividends

MAKE A DECISION MAD 13–1 a.

Earnings per Share =

Net Income – Preferred Dividends Average Number of Common Shares Outstanding

Amazon:

$33,364 – $0 506

= $65.94

Walmart:

$13,673 – $0 2,792

= $4.90

b. Amazon’s earnings per share is $65.94, while Walmart has an earnings per share of $4.90. While both companies are profitable, Amazon is more profitable than Walmart from an earnings-per-share perspective. c. Amazon’s market price is over 20 times as large as Walmart’s ($3,000 ÷ $140).* This may seem unusual, given that Amazon’s earnings per share is 13.5 times ($65.94 ÷ $4.90) higher than Walmart’s. This illustrates that market prices can be determined by supply-and-demand forces in the stock market that respond to a company’s growth and future prospects, in addition to current performance. Such is the case with Amazon. Walmart, in contrast, is a much more mature and established company. Thus, it is valued in the stock market more closely to its present-day earnings capabilities without a premium for large future growth prospects. Market prices are influenced by future expectations, which are often, but not always, fully captured by present earnings-per-share numbers. * In June 2022, Amazon split its common stock 20:1, which decreased the market price of its common stock to approximately $120 per share.

Wells Fargo:

$21,548 – $1,292 = $4.99 4,061.9

b. Wells Fargo’s earnings per share is $4.99, compared to Bank of America’s earnings per share of $3.60. Wells Fargo is more profitable than Bank of America on an earnings-per-share basis.

CHAPTER 13

MAD 13–2 (Concluded) c. We would expect the market price of Wells Fargo to be higher than the market price of Bank of America based on the difference in earnings per share. The market price of a stock is determined by many factors, of which earnings per share is just one. Even so, given that Wells Fargo’s earnings per share is approximately 1.4 times that of Bank of America’s, we would expect the market price to show a difference between the two companies. As expected, Wells Fargo’s market price was higher than that of Bank of America.* * As of the close of the market on August 19, 2022, the market price of Wells Fargo’s stock was $45.35 while Bank of America’s market price was $35.48.

b. Net income in Years 1 and 3 was significantly larger than in Year 2. Earnings per share shows a similar large increase in Years 1 and 3. During this time, the average number of shares outstanding has remained relatively stable. The decrease in Year 2 was the result of a large decrease in income, due to lower sales during the COVID-19 pandemic.

MAD 13–5 a. Earnings per Share =

Net Income – Preferred Dividends Average Number of Common Shares Outstanding

Truist:

$6,440 – $407 1,337.1

= $4.51

Regions:

$2,521 – $121 956.0

= $2.51

b. The total net income of Truist is $6,440 million, while the total net income of Regions is $2,521 million. Thus, Truist’s net income is 155% larger than Regions’ [($6,440 − $2,521) ÷ $2,521]. Truist earned more than double the net income of Regions, so it is more profitable by this measure. c. The earnings per share of Truist is $4.51, while the earnings per share of Regions is $2.51. Thus, Truist’s earnings per share is 80% larger than Regions’ [($4.51 − $2.51) ÷ $2.51]. Truist reports almost 1.8 times the earnings per share of Regions, so it is more profitable by this measure.

CHAPTER 13

MAD 13–5 (Concluded) d. From a stockholder’s perspective, the earnings per share is a better relative measure of earnings between the two banks. Truist has stronger earnings and is able to divide those earnings among only slightly more shares of stock compared to Regions. Thus, the earnings-per-share figure shows Truist to have much stronger profitability than Regions. As a result, a share of Truist common stock would be expected to be higher (more valuable) than a share of Regions.* * As of the close of the market on August 19, 2022, market price of Truist common stock was $50.63 while the market price of Regions was $22.60.

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 13–1 Tommy is clearly acting unethically for several reasons. First, he is violating the company’s policy on stock purchases. This policy was established to ensure the fair and timely dissemination of information that gives all potential investors the same chance to participate in the stock price increases. The fact that he is purchasing the stock in partnership with his father does not get around the company policy. Second, Tommy has “inside information” that is not available to other potential investors. Purchasing the stock with knowledge of information that is not available to other investors is unethical. Ethical managers and accountants are honest and fair, which means that they do not attempt to profit from inside information that is not publicly available. Doing so would give them an unfair advantage to benefit from stock price increases. Trading on inside information is also a violation of federal securities laws, which is a crime punishable by fine and/or imprisonment. TIF 13–2 Lou and Shirley are behaving in a professional manner as long as full and complete information is provided to potential investors in accordance with federal regulations for the sale of securities to the public. If such information is provided, the marketplace will determine the fair value of the company’s stock.

TIF 13–4 Memo To: From: Re:

Chairman of the Board A+ Student Fourth Quarter 20Y8 Cash Dividend

In order to prudently declare a dividend for the fourth quarter, the company must have a sufficient retained earnings balance from which to declare the dividend. On December 31, 20Y8, Motion Designs has a $4,630,000 balance in retained earnings. This balance is more than enough to cover the $90,000 declaration of the normal quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share. In addition, the company must have enough cash on hand to pay the dividend while meeting the remaining cash needs of the business. The company has a December 31, 20Y8, cash balance of $250,000, of which $100,000 is committed as the compensating balance under the loan agreement. This leaves only $150,000 to pay the dividend of $90,000 and finance normal operations. Unless the cash balance can be expected to increase significantly in early 20Y9, it is questionable whether the company’s cash balance is large enough to both pay the cash dividend and provide for the company’s near-term operating needs. Before declaring a dividend, the company should also consider its working capital and the effect of plant expansion on the current ratio requirement of the loan. On December 31, 20Y8, the company has working capital of $5,000,000 ($7,000,000 – $2,000,000), resulting in a current ratio of 3.5. However, after deducting the $3,000,000 committed to store modernization and product-line expansion, the ratio drops to 2 ($4,000,000 ÷ $2,000,000). If a cash dividend is declared and paid, the current ratio will further drop to 1.955 ($3,910,000 ÷ $2,000,000), which would violate the loan agreement. Additionally, working capital commitments and potential near-term capital expenditures could further deplete the company’s working capital. As a result, I advise the company to forgo the declaration of a cash dividend in the fourth quarter of 20Y8, as this would likely result in the company violating the terms of the loan.

CHAPTER 14 STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

It is costly to accumulate the data needed and to prepare the statement of cash flows.

2.

It focuses on the differences between net income and net cash flows from operating activities, and the data needed are generally more readily available and less costly to obtain than is the case for the direct method.

3.

In a separate schedule of noncash investing and financing activities accompanying the statement of cash flows.

4.

The $30,000 increase must be added to operating income because the amount of cash paid to merchandise creditors was $30,000 less than the amount of purchases included in the cost of goods sold.

5.

The $25,000 decrease in salaries payable should be deducted from income to determine the amount of net cash flows from operating activities. The effect of the decrease in the amount of salaries owed was to pay $25,000 more cash during the year than had been recorded as an expense.

6.

a.

$100,000 gain

b.

Cash inflow of $600,000

c.

The gain of $100,000 would be deducted from net income in determining net cash flows from operating activities; $600,000 would be reported as cash flows from investing activities.

7.

Cash flows from financing activities—issuance of bonds, $1,960,000 ($2,000,000 × 98%)

8.

a.

Cash flows from investing activities—Cash received from the disposal of fixed assets, $15,000 The $15,000 gain on asset disposal should be deducted from net income in determining net cash flows from operating activities under the indirect method.

b.

No effect

9.

The same. The total amount reported as the net cash flows from operating activities is not affected by the use of the direct or indirect method.

10.

Cash received from customers, cash paid for merchandise, cash paid for operating expenses, cash paid for interest, cash paid for income taxes.

CHAPTER 14

Statement of Cash Flows

EXERCISES Ex. 14–1 There were net additions to the net loss reported on the income statement to convert the net loss from the accrual basis to the cash basis. For example, depreciation is an expense in determining net income, but it does not result in a cash outflow. Thus, depreciation of $544 million is added back to the net loss in order to determine net cash flows from operations. A second large item that is added to the net loss is the decrease in inventory of $271 million. This indicates that cost of goods sold was greater than the cost of merchandise purchased during the year. The cash flows from operating activities detail is provided as follows for class discussion: J. C. Penney Company, Inc.

b. Net cash flows from operating activities shows the cash inflow or outflow from a company’s day-to-day operations. Net income reports the excess of revenues over expenses for a company using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when they are earned, not necessarily when cash is received. Expenses are recorded when they are incurred and matched against revenue, not necessarily when cash is paid. As a result, the net cash flows from operating activities differs from net income because it does not use the accrual basis of accounting.

Note: The change in dividends payable would be used to adjust the dividends declared in obtaining the cash paid for dividends in the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows. b.

Net cash flows from operating activities reports the cash inflow or outflow from a company’s day-to-day operations. Net income reports the excess of revenues over expenses for a company using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when they are earned, not necessarily when cash is received. Expenses are recorded when they are incurred and matched against revenue, not necessarily when cash is paid. As a result, the cash flows from operating activities differs from net income because it does not use the accrual basis of accounting.

Ex. 14–8 Cash flows from (used for) investing activities: Cash received from sale of equipment……………………………………………

$108,200

The loss on the sale is $17,900 and is computed as $108,200 proceeds from sale less $126,100 ($280,000 – $153,900) book value. This loss would be added to net income in determining the net cash flows from operating activities if the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operating activities is used.

Ex. 14–9 Cash flows from (used for) investing activities: Cash received from sale of equipment……………………………………………

$26,900

The gain on the sale is $5,900 and is computed as $26,900 proceeds from sale less $21,000 ($75,000 – $54,000) book value. This gain would be deducted from net income in determining the cash flows from operating activities if the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operations is used.

CHAPTER 14

Statement of Cash Flows

Ex. 14–15 a.

Net cash flows from operating activities……………………………………… Increase in accounts receivable………………………………………………… Increase in prepaid expenses…………………………………………………… Decrease in income taxes payable……………………………………………… Gain on sale of investments……………………………………………………… Depreciation………………………………………………………………………… Decrease in inventories…………………………………………………………… Increase in accounts payable…………………………………………………… Net income, per income statement………………………………………………

$357,500 14,300 2,970 7,700 13,200 (29,480) (19,140) (5,280) $341,770

Note to Instructors: The net income must be determined by working backward through the “Cash flows from (used for) operating activities” section of the statement of cash flows. Hence, those items that were added (deducted) to determine net cash flows from operating activities must be deducted (added) to determine net income. b.

Curwen’s net income differed from net cash flows from operating activities because of: ● $29,480 of depreciation expense, which has no effect on cash flows from operating activities. ● A $13,200 gain on the sale of investments. The proceeds from this sale, which include the gain, are reported in the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows. ● Changes in current operating assets and liabilities that are added or deducted, depending on their effect on cash flows: Increase in accounts receivable, $14,300 Increase in prepaid expenses, $2,970 Decrease in income taxes payable, $7,700 Decrease in inventories, $19,140 Increase in accounts payable, $5,280

Walmart 1.9% ($11,075 ÷ $572,754)

Net cash flows from operating activities Cash used to purchase property, plant, and equipment Free cash flow b. Ratio of free cash flow to sales

c. Amazon’s free cash flow is $(14,726) million, driven largely by an increase in purchases of property, plant, and equipment. This is lower than both Best Buy’s and Walmart’s. However, these companies vary greatly in size; thus, comparing absolute free cash flow across these companies is not very meaningful. A relative measure that can be used to compare free cash flow across the three companies is the ratio of free cash flow to sales. Using this measure, it can be seen that for this year, Best Buy is stronger at generating free cash flow from sales than are Amazon and Walmart. Amazon generates free cash flow equal to (3.1)% of sales, while Best Buy generates free cash flow equal to 4.9% of sales and Walmart generates free cash flow equal to 1.9% of sales. MAD 14–2 a.

Coca-Cola 29.1% ($11,258 ÷ $38,655)

Verizon 14.4% ($19,253 ÷ $133,613)

c. Apple has the largest free cash flow at $92,953 followed by Verizon at $19,253 and Coca-Cola at $11,258. The ratio of free cash flow to sales is the best metric for comparing the three companies. In this comparison, ranking from largest to smallest, are Coca-Cola, Apple, and Verizon. However, all three ratios would be considered acceptable. d. Over 50% of Verizon’s cash flows are used to purchase PP&E ($20,286 ÷ $39,539), a percentage much greater than is used by the other two companies. Industries such as airlines, railroads, and telecommunciations companies must invest heavily in new equipment to remain competitive. Such investments can significantly reduce free cash flow. 14-37 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

Year 1 (5.8)% [$(122) ÷ $2,091]

c. The free cash flow information does accurately show the financial stress on Aeropostale. The free cash flow and ratio of free cash flow to sales were negative in the most recent three years prior to bankruptcy. Moreover, the amount of cash used to purchase property, plant, and equipment declined across the three years. Thus, the free cash flow would have been even more negative if the purchases of property, plant, and equipment had remained at the Year 1 levels. It appears that Aeropostale attempted to save cash by reducing property, plant, and equipment purchases. Lastly, the sales levels were declining across the three years. This is considered an unfavorable trend.

MAD 14–4 a. Total revenue is a good measure for assessing the relative size of the two companies. AT&T is clearly the larger company, with over 1.4 times the revenue of Meta ($168,864 ÷ $117,929) in Year 3. b. Total revenue growth is measured horizontally for each company using Year 1 as the base year as follows: Year 3 93% 167%

AT&T Meta Platforms

CHAPTER 14

Statement of Cash Flows

MAD 14–4 (Continued) It is clear from these data that Meta is growing much faster than AT&T. This is not surprising in that Meta is a young company that is expanding services and regions. AT&T is a more mature company with less opportunity for service or regional expansion. In addition, Meta is starting from a much smaller revenue base compared to AT&T. Fast growth is easier from a smaller base than a larger base of activity. c. Cash used to purchase PP&E as a percentage of the net cash flows from operating activities: Year 3 39% 32%

AT&T Meta Platforms

Year 2 36% 39%

Year 1 40% 42%

AT&T 39% = $16,527 ÷ $41,957 36% = $15,675 ÷ $43,130 40% = $19,635 ÷ $48,668 Meta Platforms 32% = $18,567 ÷ $57,683 39% = $15,115 ÷ $38,747 42% = $15,102 ÷ $36,314 d. The data indicate that AT&T requires approximately the same amount of cash to purchase PP&E as Meta. However, in Year 3, the percent of net cash flows from operations that AT&T used to purchase PP&E was 7% (39% – 32%) more than that of Meta. The net impact of cash used to purchase PP&E on free cash flow is more negative for AT&T than it is for Meta in Year 3. This is because cash used to purchase PP&E is subtracted from net cash flows from operating activities in determining free cash flow. e. AT&T: Year 3 $ 41,957

f. Meta appears to have a better free cash flow position than does AT&T. In Year 1, Meta’s ratio of free cash flow to revenue is almost 1.9 (30.0% ÷ 16.0%) times greater than AT&T’s. In Year 2, the difference is smaller; however, Meta’s ratio of free cash flow to revenue is still approximately 1.7 (27.5% ÷ 16.0%) times greater than AT&T’s. In Year 3, the difference increases and Meta’s ratio of free cash flow to revenue is almost 2.2 (33.2% ÷ 15.1%) times greater than AT&T’s. Over this time, Meta has increased net cash flows from operating activities, but AT&T’s net cash flows from operating activities has decreased. Over the three years, AT&T’s cash needed to purchase PP&E has remained relatively stable, while Meta’s cash needed to purchase PP&E has increased slightly. MAD 14–5 a.

Year 2 $ 85 (286) $(201)

Year 1 $4,865 (368) $4,497

c. The free cash flow changes dramatically over the three years. Over this period, free cash flow decreased from $4,497 million to $2,516 million, or a 44% decrease. [($2,516 − $4,497) ÷ $4,497]. The free cash flow has been used to make acquisitions and investments and repurchase common stock. The acquisitions and investments help grow the company and provide for flexibility for the future. The repurchase of common stock is a method of returning cash to stockholders. Notice that the repurchase of common stock slowed as net cash provided by operating activities fell in Year 2 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. d. The cash flow available for investment, dividends, debt repayments, and stock repurchases is best measured by free cash flow. The net change in cash for the period includes all of the sources and uses of cash, and thus is not a good measure for the cash remaining for these uses.

CHAPTER 14

Statement of Cash Flows

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 14–1 Although this situation might seem harmless at first, it is, in fact, a violation of generally accepted accounting principles. The operating cash flow per share figure should not be shown on the face of the income statement. The income statement is constructed under accrual accounting concepts, while operating cash flow “undoes” the accounting accruals. Thus, the inclusion of cash flow information on the income statement could be confusing to users. Some users might not be able to distinguish between earnings and operating cash flow per share—or how to interpret the difference. By agreeing with Polly, Lucas has breached his professional ethics because the disclosure would violate generally accepted accounting principles. On a more subtle note, Polly is being somewhat disingenuous. Apparently, Polly is not pleased with this year’s operating performance and would like to cover the earnings “bad news” with some “good cash flow news.” An interesting question is: Would Polly be as interested in the dual per-share disclosures in the opposite scenario—with earnings per share improving and cash flow per share deteriorating? Probably not.

CHAPTER 14

Statement of Cash Flows

TIF 14–3 Memo To: From: Re:

My Instructor A+ Student Tidewater Inc. Financial Condition

Tidewater Inc. is a retailer that has been unprofitable in recent years. While the company has returned to profitability, there are several “red flags” indicating that the company’s future prospects are highly uncertain. These red flags are discussed below. • The company has initiated a new marketing campaign that significantly increased the number of customers who are purchasing merchandise on credit using the company’s branded credit card. This campaign significantly increased revenue and has helped the company return to profitability. However, it appears that the company has done a poor job of screening the creditworthiness of its new credit card customers. Increases in credit card purchases have resulted in a large accounts receivable balance. It is unlikely that the company will be able to collect a large portion of these accounts receivable, which will likely lead to a cash crisis. • The purchases of deeply discounted merchandise appear to be backfiring. The company has received some “good deals” on price. However, the merchandise is only a “good deal” if the company can resell the merchandise at a profit. The large increase in inventory indicates that this is not the case. It appears that the merchandise has little customer appeal, and it is questionable whether the company will be able to sell the merchandise. • The company has not been able to pay off its accounts payable in a timely manner, resulting in significant overdue accounts payable balances. While the company reports that most of the past-due payables have been paid, it is concerning that the company became overdue on its accounts payable. A retailer cannot afford a poor payment history, or it will be denied future merchandise shipments. This is a signal of a severe cash flow problem. These red flags suggest that the company is having severe operating cash flow difficulties, and the company’s future prospects are highly uncertain.

CHAPTER 14

Statement of Cash Flows

TIF 14–4 Start-up companies are unique in that they frequently have negative retained earnings and operating cash flows. The negative retained earnings are often due to losses from high start-up expenses. The negative operating cash flows are typical because growth requires cash. Growth must be financed with cash before the cash returns. For example, a company must expend cash to provide the service in Period 1 before selling the service and receiving cash in Period 2. The start-up company constantly faces the problem of spending cash today for the next period’s growth. For Giraffe Inc., the money spent on salaries to develop the business is a cash outflow that must occur before the service provides revenues. In addition, the company must use cash to market its service to potential customers. In this situation, the only way the company stays in business is from the capital provided by the owners. This owner-supplied capital is the lifeblood of a start-up company. Banks will not likely lend money on this type of venture (except with assets as security). Giraffe Inc. could be a good investment. It all depends on whether the new service has promise. The financial figures will not reveal this in a straightforward manner. Only actual sales will reveal whether the service is a hit. Until such a time, the company is at risk. If the service is not popular, the company will have no cash to fall back on—it will likely go bankrupt. If, however, the service is successful, then Giraffe Inc. should become self-sustaining and provide a good return for the shareholders.

CHAPTER 15 FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Liquidity is the ability of a company to convert assets into cash. Short-term creditors such as banks and financial institutions are most concerned with liquidity. Solvency is the ability of a company to pay its debts. Long-term creditors, such as bondholders, are primarily concerned with a company’s solvency. Profitability is the ability of a company to generate earnings. Investors, such as stockholders, are primarily concerned with profitability because it determines whether the company’s stock price will increase.

2.

Comparative statements provide information about changes between dates or periods. Trends indicated by comparisons may be far more significant than the data for a single date or period.

3.

Before this question can be answered, the increase in net income should be compared with changes in sales, expenses, and assets for the current year. The return on total assets for both periods should also be compared. If these comparisons indicate favorable trends, the operating performance has improved. If not, the apparent favorable increase in net income may be offset by unfavorable trends in other areas.

4.

Generally, the two ratios would be very close because most service businesses sell services and hold very little inventory.

5.

a.

A high inventory turnover minimizes the amount invested in inventories, thus freeing funds for other uses. Storage costs, administrative expenses, losses caused by obsolescence, and potential decreases in selling prices are also kept to a minimum when inventory turnover is high.

b.

Yes. Inventory turnover measures the “turnover” of inventory during the year, while the days’ sales in inventory measures the amount of inventory on hand at the beginning and end of the year. Therefore, a business could have a high inventory turnover during the year, yet have a high days’ sales in inventory based on the beginning and end-of-year inventory amounts.

6.

The ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities increased from 3.4 ($1,360,000 ÷ $400,000) in the preceding year to 4.2 ($1,260,000 ÷ $300,000) in the current year. This indicates that the company is in a stronger position this year to borrow additional long-term debt.

7.

a.

The return on total assets measures the profitability of the total assets, without regard for how the assets are financed. The return on stockholders’ equity measures the profitability of the stockholders’ investment, focusing exclusively on the return to shareholders.

b.

The return on stockholders’ equity is normally higher than the return on total assets. This is because of leverage, which compensates stockholders for the higher risk of their investments.

8. The price-earnings ratio measures the market’s expectations of a company’s future earnings prospects. Kroger’s low price-earnings ratio compared to the industry average suggests that the market has low expectations about the company’s future earnings.

CHAPTER 15

Financial Statement Analysis

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS (Concluded) 9. The dividend yield measures the return common stockholders receive from a cash dividend. The high dividend yield for Suburban Propane indicates that a significant portion of the return to its shareholders comes in the form of a cash dividend. The lack of a dividend yield for Alphabet indicates that the return to shareholders comes solely from stock price appreciation. 10.

The cost of goods sold is 7% lower than the industry average, but the selling expenses and administrative expenses are 3% and 2% higher than the industry averages, respectively. The combined impact causes net income as a percent of sales to be 2% better than the industry average. Apparently, the company is managing the cost of manufacturing product better than the industry, but has slightly higher selling and administrative expenses relative to the industry. The cause of the higher selling and administrative expenses as a percent of sales, relative to the industry, can be investigated further.

CHAPTER 15

Financial Statement Analysis

Ex. 15–8 a.

The working capital, current ratio, and quick ratio are computed incorrectly. The working capital and current ratio incorrectly include intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment as a part of current assets. Both are noncurrent. The quick ratio has both an incorrect numerator and denominator. The numerator of the quick ratio is incorrectly computed as the sum of inventories, prepaid expenses, and property, plant, and equipment ($36,000 + $24,000 + $55,200). The denominator is also incorrect, as it does not include accrued liabilities. The denominator of the quick ratio should be total current liabilities. The correct computations are as follows: Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities $30,000 = $330,000 – $300,000 Current Ratio = = Quick Ratio = =

Unfortunately, the working capital, current ratio, and quick ratio are below the minimum threshold required by the bond indenture. This may require the company to renegotiate the bond contract, including a possible unfavorable change in the interest rate.

The collection of accounts receivable has improved. This can be seen in both the increase in accounts receivable turnover and the reduction in the collection period. The credit terms require payment in 45 days. In the prior year, the collection period exceeded these terms. However, the company apparently became more aggressive in collecting accounts receivable or more restrictive in granting credit to customers. Thus, in the current year, the collection period is within the credit terms of the company.

Xavier’s accounts receivable turnover is much higher than Lestrade’s (10.0 for Xavier vs. 7.0 for Lestrade). The days’ sales in receivables is lower for Xavier than for Lestrade (36.5 days for Xavier vs. 52.1 days for Lestrade). These differences indicate that Xavier is able to turn over its receivables more quickly than Lestrade. As a result, it takes Xavier less time to collect its receivables.

The inventory position of the business has deteriorated. The inventory turnover has decreased, while the days’ sales in inventory has increased. The sales volume appears to have declined faster than the inventory, resulting in a deteriorating inventory position.

* Average daily cost of goods sold = $122.6 = $44,754 ÷ 365 days ** Average daily cost of goods sold = $253.1 = $92,385 ÷ 365 days b.

QT has a much higher inventory turnover ratio than does Elppa (32.1 vs. 13.4). Likewise, QT has a much smaller days’ sales in inventory (11.4 days vs. 27.3 days). These significant differences are a result of QT’s make-to-order strategy. QT has successfully developed a manufacturing process that is able to fill a customer order quickly. As a result, QT does not pre-build many computers for inventory. Elppa, in contrast, pre-builds computers to be sold to retail stores and other retail channels. In this industry, there is great obsolescence risk in holding computers in inventory. New technology can make an inventory of computers difficult to sell; therefore, inventory is costly and risky.

Both the ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity and the number of times bond interest charges were earned have improved from the previous year. These results are the combined result of a larger income before income taxes and lower interest expense in the current year compared to the previous year.

Mattel has significantly more debt to stockholders’ equity compared to Hasbro (8.1 vs. 2.3 times stockholders’ equity). Both Hasbro and Mattel have strong interest coverage. Together, these ratios indicate that both Mattel and Hasbro provide creditors with a sound margin of safety and that earnings are more than enough to make interest payments.

$2,586,187 $4,086,627 + $1,075,062

=

$2,586,187 $5,161,689

= 0.5

Hershey’s total liabilities to stockholders’ equity ratio is higher than Mondelez’s (2.8 vs. 1.4), meaning Hershey uses more debt than Mondelez. Mondelez has a lower ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities than Hershey. This ratio divides the property, plant, and equipment (net) by the long-term debt. The ratio for Mondelez is aggressive, with fixed assets covering only 30% of the long-term debt. That is, the creditors of Mondelez have 30 cents of property, plant, and equipment covering every dollar of long-term debt. The same ratio for Hershey shows fixed assets covering 50% of the long-term debt. That is, Hershey’s creditors have 50 cents of property, plant, and equipment covering every dollar of long-term debt. This would suggest that Hershey has slightly stronger creditor protection and borrowing capacity than does Mondelez.

C.H. Robinson $23,102,138 Worldwide: $6,086,185

= 3.8

The asset turnover ratio measures the number of sales dollars earned for each dollar of assets. The greater the number of sales dollars earned for every dollar of assets, the more efficient a firm is in using assets. Thus, the ratio is a measure of each company’s asset efficiency. Union Pacific earns only 30 cents for every dollar of assets. This is because railroads are very asset intensive. The company must invest in locomotives, railcars, terminals, tracks, right-of-way, and information systems in order to earn revenues. These investments are significant. YRC has a higher asset turnover ratio and is able to earn $2.20 for every dollar of assets. This is because the motor carrier invests in trucks, trailers, and terminals, which require less investment per dollar of revenue than the railroad. Moreover, the motor carrier does not invest in the highway system because the government owns the highway system. Thus, the motor carrier has no investment in the transportation network itself, unlike the railroad. C.H. Robinson, the transportation arranger, hires transportation services from motor carriers and railroads but does not own these assets itself. The transportation arranger’s assets are in the form of accounts receivable and information systems. However, the company does not require transportation assets; thus, it is able to earn the highest revenue per dollar of assets ($3.80). Note to Instructors: Students may wonder how asset-intensive companies overcome their asset efficiency disadvantages to competitors with better asset efficiencies, as in the case between railroads and motor carriers. Asset efficiency is part of the financial equation; the other part is the profit margin made on each dollar of sales. Thus, companies with high asset efficiency often operate on thinner margins than do companies with lower asset efficiency. For example, the motor carrier must pay highway taxes, which lowers its operating margins when compared to railroads that own their right-of-way, and thus do not have the tax expense of the highway. While not required in this exercise, the railroad has the highest profit margins, the motor carrier is in the middle, and the transportation arranger operates on very thin margins.

The profitability ratios indicate that the company’s profitability has deteriorated. Most of this change is from net income falling from $492,000 in 20Y6 to $372,000 in 20Y7. Because the return on common stockholders’ equity exceeds the return on total assets in both years, there is positive leverage from the use of debt. However, this leverage is greater in 20Y6 because the return on total assets exceeds the return on common stockholders’ equity by a greater amount in 20Y6.

The return on total assets and the return on stockholders’ equity increased over the two-year period. The return on total assets increased from (0.1)% to 8.4%, and the return on stockholders’ equity increased from (4.6)% to 23.3%. The return on stockholders’ equity exceeds the return on total assets due to the positive use of leverage.

d.

During fiscal Year 3, Ralph Lauren’s results were strong compared to the industry average. The return on total assets for Ralph Lauren was slightly more than the industry average (8.4% vs. 8.0%). The return on stockholders’ equity was more than the industry average (23.3% vs. 15.0%). These relationships suggest that Ralph Lauren has more leverage than the industry, on average.

Coca-Cola has the highest dividend yield and the highest price-earnings ratio of the three companies. Stock market participants value Coca-Cola common stock on the basis of both its dividend and its potential share price appreciation. Alphabet pays no dividend and, thus, has no dividend yield. Alphabet has the second-largest price-earnings ratio. Stock market participants are expecting a return on their investment from appreciation in the stock price. Deere & Company has the lowest price-earnings ratio. Deere & Company has a solid dividend, producing a yield of 1.1%. Deere & Company is expected to produce shareholder returns through a combination of some share price appreciation and a moderate dividend. However, the market does not expect the same share price appreciation it expects from Coca-Cola.

2. Net income has declined from 20Y1 to 20Y2. Sales have increased by 12.0%; however, the cost of goods sold has increased by 15.0%, causing the gross profit to increase at a slower pace than sales. In addition, total operating expenses have increased at a faster rate than sales (19.6% increase vs. 12.0% sales increase). Increases in costs and expenses that are higher than the increase in sales have caused the net income to decline by 5.8%.

The vertical analysis indicates that the costs other than selling expenses (cost of goods sold and administrative expenses) improved as a percentage of sales. As a result, net income as a percentage of sales increased from 7.5% to 10.0%. The sales promotion campaign appears to have been successful. While selling expenses as a percent of sales increased slightly (2.0%), the increased cost was more than made up for by increased sales.

CHAPTER 15

Financial Statement Analysis

Prob. 15–5A (Concluded) 2.

Both the return on total assets and the return on stockholders’ equity have been moving in a negative direction in the last five years. Both measures have moved below the industry average over the last two years. The cause of this decline is driven by a rapid decline in earnings. The use of debt can be seen from the ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity. The ratio has declined over the time period and has declined below the industry average. Thus, the level of debt relative to the stockholders’ equity has gradually improved over the five years. The times interest earned has been falling below the industry average for several years. This is the result of low profitability combined with high interest costs. The times interest earned fell to a dangerously low level in 20Y8.

The profitability has significantly improved from 20Y1 to 20Y2. Sales have increased by 30.0% over the 20Y1 base year. However, the cost of goods sold, selling expenses, and administrative expenses grew at a slower rate. Increasing sales combined with costs that increase at a slower rate results in strong earnings growth. In this case, net income grew 53.6% over the base year.

The net income as a percent of sales has declined. All the costs and expenses, other than selling expenses, have maintained their approximate cost as a percent of sales between 20Y1 and 20Y2. Selling expenses as a percent of sales, however, have grown from 16.0% to 20.0% of sales. Apparently, the new advertising campaign has not been successful. The increased expense has not produced sufficient sales to maintain relative profitability. Thus, selling expenses as a percent of sales have increased.

CHAPTER 15

Financial Statement Analysis

Prob. 15–5B (Concluded) 2.

Both the return on total assets and the return on stockholders’ equity are above the industry average for all five years. The return on total assets is actually improving gradually. The return on stockholders’ equity exceeds the return earned on total assets, providing evidence of the positive use of leverage. The company is clearly growing earnings as fast as the asset and equity base. In addition, the ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity indicates that the proportion of debt to stockholders’ equity has been declining over the period. The firm is adding to debt at a slower rate than the assets are growing from earnings. The times interest earned ratio is improving during this time period. Again, the firm is increasing earnings faster than the increase in interest charges. Overall, these ratios indicate excellent financial performance coupled with appropriate use of debt (leverage).

2. Amazon has the highest gross profit on a percentage basis and operating income that is similar on a percentage basis to the other two companies. Walmart has a lower gross profit than Amazon on a percentage basis (25.1% vs. 42.0%), but generates a very strong operating income that is much closer to Amazon on a percentage basis. This is consistent with the company’s business strategy, in that it seeks to sell a large quantity of items at a very low margin. Comparatively, Best Buy has gross profit similar to Walmart on a percentage basis but much smaller in terms of total dollars. This reflects a decreasing margin on the product mix sold by Best Buy.

2. PepsiCo has the largest dividend yield and the lowest earnings per share, but it has a price-earnings ratio slightly higher than Alphabet. Stock market participants seem to be optimistic about PepsiCo’s future prospects, which is reflected in a relatively high stock price. Alphabet pays no dividend and, thus, has no dividend yield. However, Alphabet has the largest earnings per share. Stock market participants are expecting a strong return on their investment from appreciation in Alphabet’s stock price. Caterpillar has the lowest price-earnings ratio and a lower dividend yield but higher earnings per share than PepsiCo. This suggests that the market expects Caterpillar’s combination of earnings and dividends to decline in the coming years. 15-44 © 2024 Cengage Learning, Inc.

2. Deere’s profitability, as measured by earnings per share, declined from Year 1 to Year 2 and then increased significantly from Year 2 to Year 3. The returns on total assets and stockholders’ equity have shown a similar pattern during this period. This is most likely due to the financial effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was mostly felt in Year 2. During this time, Deere reduced its dividend yield. Additionally, the price-earnings ratio has remained relatively stable, indicating that market participants view Deere’s future prospects favorably.

2. Marriott has a higher return on total assets [6.0% vs. (0.5)%], and Marriott has a higher return on stockholders’ equity [119.2% vs. (6.5)%]. These results appear to be due to Hyatt’s earnings relative to its debt level. Hyatt has less leverage than Marriott. This is confirmed by the ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity, which shows that the relative debt held by Marriott is 17.1 times stockholders’ equity, compared to 2.5 times for Hyatt. The times interest earned ratio shows that Marriott covers its interest charges 3.8 times. The comparable number for Hyatt is 1.3. Both companies have sufficient coverage. Hyatt is not covering the interest expense on its debt as well as Marriott, which, along with negative net income, is negatively affecting the return on total assets. In addition, Marriott’s small equity value is due to its stock buyback program, which appears as treasury stock on its balance sheet. This amount significantly reduces Marriott’s equity, contributing to the higher return on equity.

This report acknowledges management’s responsibility for establishing and maintaining internal control. In addition, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting is included in the report.

Before reaching definitive conclusions, each measure should be compared with past years, industry averages, and similar firms in the industry. a.

The working capital decreased between 2020 and 2021.

b. and c.

The current and quick ratios both decreased slightly.

d. and e.

The accounts receivable turnover and the days’ sales in receivables indicate an increase in the efficiency of collecting accounts receivable. The accounts receivable turnover increased from 4.6 to 5.2. The days’ sales in receivables decreased slightly from 78.7 to 70.6. Thus, it takes the company about 10 weeks to collect its accounts receivable from credit sales. These numbers should be evaluated relative to Disney’s competitors, industry averages, and Disney’s credit policy before drawing definitive conclusions.

f. and g.

The results of these two analyses show a slight decrease in inventory turnover from 2.8 to 2.7, and an increase in the days’ sales in inventory from 131.4 to 132.5. Inventory management is not a critical driver of revenue for Disney. While these changes are not favorable, they are not likely to be a big concern.

h.

The margin of protection to creditors improved slightly as liabilities decreased relative to stockholders’ equity. Overall, Disney still provides sound protection to its creditors.

i.

These analyses indicate that the effectiveness in the use of assets to generate revenues was very similar in both years.

j.

The return on total assets increased during 2021. This increase was mainly due to the decline in restructuring and impairment charges during 2021.

k.

The return on common stockholders’ equity increased. This increase was due to the increase in income relative to equity.

l.

The price-earnings ratio increased from 2020 to 2021. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in net income, as well as an increase in Disney’s stock price.

m. The percent of net income to sales increased during 2021.

TIF 15–3 To: From: Re:

Boss Freeman A+ Student Debt vs. Equity Financing

I have reviewed your company history and appreciate the challenges your company has faced during economic downturns. While your conservative approach to debt financing is commendable, your unwillingness to issue debt could limit your potential for future success. Financing future growth exclusively through retained earnings and additional stock sales does not allow the shareholders to take advantage of leverage. As a result, the return on stockholders’ equity is limited. While no debt does provide the company great flexibility in the event of a national calamity, the probability of this happening is very low. During normal business operations, your company can assume some debt without significantly increasing the risk of losing control of the company. Freeman Industries is competing against companies that will not be so inclined to avoid debt. As a result, your competitors will likely be able to grow faster. Management should carefully consider the strategic risks that could result from the company’s conservative financing policies when establishing the company’s debt load.

CHAPTER 16 INTRODUCTION TO MANAGERIAL ACCOUNTING DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

2.

3.

4. 5. 6.

Managerial accounting is the process of developing information and management tools to achieve an organization’s objectives. The management process is composed of four basic functions: strategic planning, measurement, evaluation, and control. Strategic planning is the process of developing long-term objectives. Measurement is the process of developing and agreeing upon performance metrics on how well the company is achieving its objectives. Evaluation is the process by which management monitors operations by comparing actual and expected results. Control is the process by which management takes actions to encourage specific behaviors or outcomes. Financial accounting and managerial accounting are different in several ways. Financial accounting information is reported in statements that are useful to persons or groups outside of a company. These statements objectively report the results of operations for fixed periods of time and the financial condition of the business under generally accepted accounting principles. Managerial accounting information uses both subjective and objective information to meet the specific needs of management. This non-GAAP information can be reported periodically or as needed by management and can be reported for the entire entity or for segments of the organization. This information includes (i) historical data, which provide objective measures of past operations, and (ii) estimated data, which provide subjective estimates about future decisions. a. Vertical units are structured as separate businesses within a company and normally develop and sell products directly to customers. Horizontal units are not responsible for developing and selling products, but provide services to other horizontal and vertical units within the company. b. The accounting and legal departments are horizontal units within a company. c. A consumer products division would be considered a vertical unit within a company. Direct materials cost Prime costs are the combination of direct materials and direct labor costs, while conversion costs are the combination of direct labor costs and factory overhead costs. Product costs are composed of three elements of manufacturing costs: direct materials cost, direct labor cost, and factory overhead cost. These costs are treated as assets until the product is sold. Period costs consist of selling and administrative expenses that are used in generating revenue during the current period. They are recognized as expenses on the current period’s income statement.

7.

Corporate social responsibility is the general term for the efforts of companies to take responsibility for the impact their operations have on society and to improve social well-being within and outside the firm. Sustainability efforts are corporate social responsibility activities that involve ensuring the ability to meet current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs (e.g., efforts to protect the environment).

8.

The three inventory accounts for a manufacturing business are as follows: a. Finished goods inventory consists of completed (or finished) products that have not been sold. b. Work in process inventory consists of the direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead costs for products that have entered the manufacturing process, but are not yet completed. c. Materials inventory consists of the costs of the direct and indirect materials that have not entered the manufacturing process.

CHAPTER 16

Introduction to Managerial Accounting

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS (Continued) 9.

The cost of finished goods and the cost of work in process include the following: a. Direct materials—the costs of materials that enter directly into the finished product. b. Direct labor—the wages of factory workers who convert materials into a finished product. c. Factory overhead—the costs, other than direct materials and direct labor, that are incurred in the manufacturing process.

10.

The manufacturing costs incurred during a period include direct materials used in production plus the direct labor and factory overhead costs incurred during the period. The cost of goods manufactured for a period is computed by adjusting the manufacturing costs incurred during the period for the effects of beginning and ending work in process. Beginning work in process inventory is added and ending work in process is subtracted from the manufacturing costs incurred during a period to arrive at the cost of goods manufactured for the period.

11.

A retail business purchases merchandise (products) in a finished state for resale to customers. The cost of product sold is called cost of goods sold. A manufacturer makes the product it sells using direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead, which make up the cost of goods manufactured included in the “Cost of goods sold” section of the income statement.

The percentage of electric-powered trucks in the fleet would be a helpful performance metric for the company’s strategic objective.

b.

A 10% increase per year (i.e., replace 20 old trucks with electric trucks per year) would be an appropriate yearly performance target. Given that the company wants to gradually switch to an all-electric fleet over the next 5 years, and that currently 100 of the company’s 200 trucks are not electricpowered, it will need to see a 10% increase per year in the percentage of electric-powered trucks in the fleet before it reaches its goal of 100% after 5 years (50% increase needed ÷ 5 years = 10% increase per year).

Introduction to Managerial Accounting

MAD 16–2 (Concluded) d. An important question beyond occupancy is the price at which the rooms are sold. Price will influence occupancy. For example, it is possible to increase occupancy by reducing price. However, a reduced price may reduce revenue by more than the revenue increase achieved by increased occupancy. Thus, hotels also need to monitor the average daily price for which room nights are sold. Note: In this case, Hilton Hotels had an average room price of $114.03 in 2020 (down from $144.79 in 2019), while Marriott had an average room price of $151.51 in 2020 (down from $182.60 in 2019). Thus, while both hotels saw a decrease in price, and while Marriott had a lower occupancy rate, Marriott made more revenue per room night in 2020 than did Hilton. Thus, Marriott’s overall performance appears more favorable than what could be determined by just the occupancy data. Further, understanding the long-term impact of pandemic-related demand at Hilton and Marriott is important. For example, it is important to investigate how travel was affected in the areas served by Hilton and Marriott, and how sanitation changes at these hotels could influence future demand.

d. The occupancy rate increased from April to May and again from May to June. This suggests the hospital bed capacity is being utilized more efficiently over time. A closer examination of the data reveals that the average length of stay is declining, while the number of admissions is increasing. The average length of stay may be declining because of greater efficiency in delivering health care, assuming no change in treatment mix is being provided over the three months. This potential improvement provides greater capacity to accept new patients, as can be seen from the three-month data. Thus, the reduced length of stay and greater occupancy are both contributing to the hospital’s ability to serve more patients per month.

This suggests the management of Eastern Skies is offering too much capacity for the morning flights to Chicago. One solution would be to use smaller aircraft for Flights 85 and 94 so as to better match capacity with demand. Alternatively, Eastern could consolidate the two flights into one flight that could depart at some time between the two original times, such as 10:45 AM. Passengers could then migrate to the new flight, resulting in a better utilization of the remaining flight.

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 16–1 Brian has behaved unethically and violated several of the IMA’s principles of ethical conduct. By determining the price of the lumber that he is buying, Brian has created a conflict-of-interest situation that violates the principle of objectivity. For professionals to be objective, they must make decisions that are not influenced by their personal feelings or result in personal gains. Since Brian is in a position to directly influence the price that he will pay for the lumber, he cannot be objective. Thus, although it is appropriate for Brian to take advantage of Avett’s policy of allowing employees to purchase materials at cost, he should have had someone else (such as his supervisor) determine the amount that he owed for the lumber. Clearly, selecting the lowest price has opened the door for criticism. TIF 16–2 Answers may vary slightly by restaurant chosen.

TIF 16–3 Memo To:

From:

A+ Student

Re:

Financial vs. Managerial Accounting Information

The objectives of financial and managerial accounting are quite different, and your statement does not fully consider these differences. In one sense, your statement may be appropriate at high levels in the organization. For example, it is appropriate to evaluate a division manager who is responsible for the overall performance of a division using the same financial performance measures that shareholders use to evaluate the company. However, these measures are not appropriate for evaluating managerial decision making below the division level. At these levels, summary financial performance measures do not provide the relevant information needed to direct and control the company’s operations. Operational performance measures need to focus on measuring cost, quality, delivery time, equipment availability, inventory levels, scrap, waste, and efficiency. This list is much broader and more detailed than the financial statement numbers provided to the stockholders. The stockholders’ interest in profit is related to increasing shareholder value. Managers must increase long-term shareholder value by engaging in strategies that enhance people, product, and processes in the delivery of value to customers. These strategies can be measured by both financial and nonfinancial means. Therefore, managerial accounting information needs a much broader set of objective and subjective measures used internally in the organization to guide strategy and operations.

CHAPTER 16

Introduction to Managerial Accounting

TIF 16–4 a.

The vice president of the Information Systems Division can use managerial accounting information in a number of ways. For example, the vice president might use these data to determine resources that will be needed based on a projection of the amount and type of work required for the next period. Managerial accounting information would also be used to determine whether the bank should lease additional processing capacity or purchase a new central processing unit. In addition, managerial accounting information could be used to achieve better control over information systems activities by evaluating the costs of ongoing operations, based on the demand for information services.

b.

The hospital administrator can use managerial accounting information in a number of ways. One way is for cost planning and control. The administrator could use managerial information to keep costs commensurate with services provided and to plan for staffing and nursing levels. This information can be used to determine the cost of various services and, thereby, in making decisions with respect to the amount of service that is appropriate in each case. The administrator can also use managerial accounting information to determine whether the hospital’s costs are being covered by fixed payments from Medicare, Medicaid, or insurance. If not, the administrator needs to know the source of the cost overruns. Does the hospital allow too many procedures? Require longer bed days? Have resources that are underutilized (e.g., a cancer wing with three patients)?

c.

The CEO of the food company will use managerial accounting information to support the control of the three divisions. Each of the three divisions will be subject to a number of financial goals. The CEO also needs to support strategic decision making. In this regard, the CEO needs managerial accounting information on the profitability of various product families, profitability of different regions, and profitability of various customer segments. This information can guide the CEO in allocating future effort and resources.

d.

The copy shop manager needs fairly simple managerial accounting information. At the most basic level, the copy shop manager needs to know the costs of performing various copy tasks, such as one-sided copy, two-sided copy, collating, and binding. These activities will have some direct costs, such as paper, and some indirect costs, such as copy machine time. The manager will need to estimate the impact of both of these costs in order to price the various copy jobs to the public. Managerial accounting information will include the cost details necessary to price the various copy shop services at a level needed to cover equipment costs, lease expenses, and profit.

CHAPTER 16

Introduction to Managerial Accounting

TIF 16–5 a.

The High Times manager will use managerial accounting information to accumulate the costs associated with different menu items. The costs, direct and indirect, will help in determining the pricing strategy.

b.

The plant manager is going to use cost information on scrap and rework to identify the amount of waste occurring in the plant. This measure of waste is fairly common in fabrication-type facilities. The measures can guide the plant manager to locations or products where significant waste is occurring. The plant manager can use the scrap and rework measures to guide operational improvement toward the location that is experiencing the greatest level of scrap or rework. The measures can also monitor improvement in rework and control the number of network hours charged by floor personnel.

c.

The cost of ending inventory must be determined as financial statements are prepared. The division controller will likely require inventory valuation at the close of every month in order to have a good understanding of the month-by-month earnings of the division. The division controller will provide the ending inventory information by using managerial accounting information in determining the cost of products. To determine the appropriate cost, the product cost is multiplied by the units left in inventory.

d.

The Maintenance Department manager needs to be able to plan the resources used by his department. The planning process involves identifying the required resources to fulfill the department’s objective(s). For example, the Maintenance Department manager may know the repair histories of various machines. These histories can be used to forecast the repairs anticipated during the next year. The manager may also know that a new process will be brought online during the next year. New processes are frequently troublesome, so the manager will need to budget additional resources to accommodate introduction of the new technology.

CHAPTER 16

Introduction to Managerial Accounting

TIF 16–6 1.

Obie’s bill has a number of points that should be considered. Some of the points, with the appropriate argument, are identified below. ●

The trip back to the shop resulted in an $80 labor charge. Obie should argue that the whole hour should not be billed. The hour is the result of stocking out of a circuit board on the truck. The circuit board should have been with the repair person. There was a board for the previous customer. However, because only one was stocked, the repair person had to go back to the shop. The trip back to the shop was nonproductive time that should not have been charged directly to Obie but should be part of Geek Gang’s overhead cost to all customers. In other words, Obie should not be responsible for this mistake.

The overtime premium should not have been charged to Obie. What if Obie was the first appointment in the morning? If he was, there would be no overtime premium. It’s only random misfortune that Obie was the last client of the day and therefore received the overtime premium. Add to this the fact that the overtime would not have been necessary without the trip back to the shop, and the conclusion is that Obie should not be charged directly for overtime. The overtime premium should be part of Geek Gang’s overhead charged to all clients equally. Obie should be charged the overtime only if the decision for overtime was caused by or required by Obie.

Thus, the labor portion of the bill should only be $70 + $60 + $60 = $190. There are other parts of the bill that should not be in dispute. ●

The materials storage and handling charge is a normal charge of maintaining a parts inventory for the benefit of clients that need parts.

The fringe benefits and overhead added to the hourly rate are both reasonable. The fringe benefit attaches directly to the direct labor. Fringe benefits are just another form of compensation. The overhead must be covered by all customers. Therefore, including overhead in the hourly rate is the most logical method of covering these costs.

The additional charge for the first hour is also reasonable. The first hour charge covers the costs of transit, which are directly attributable to making a home visit. Obie requires a home visit, so Obie should be responsible for the costs of making the visit. If Obie brought the computer to the shop, this cost would not be incurred.

CHAPTER 17 JOB ORDER COSTING DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

a.

Job order costing and process costing.

b.

Job order costing provides a separate record of each quantity of product that passes through the factory.

c.

Process costing accumulates costs for each department or process within a factory.

d.

Hybrid costing, or operations costing, incorporates elements of both job order costing and process costing.

2.

Job order costing is used by firms that sell custom goods and services to customers. Job order costing is frequently associated with firms that will produce a product or service specifically to a customer order.

3.

Work in Process

4.

a. b.

5.

A job cost sheet is the subsidiary ledger to the work in process control account. The costs of materials, labor, and overhead are listed on each separate job cost sheet for each job. A summary of all the job cost sheets during an accounting period is the basis for journal entries to the control accounts.

6.

The predetermined overhead rate is computed using estimated amounts at the beginning of the period. This is because managers need timely information on the product costs of each job. If a company waited until all overhead costs were known at the end of the period, the allocated factory overhead would be accurate, but not timely. Only through timely reporting can managers adjust manufacturing methods or product pricing.

7.

a.

The predetermined factory overhead rate is determined by dividing the estimated total factory overhead costs for the forthcoming year by an estimated activity base, one that reflects the consumption or use of factory overhead costs.

b.

Direct labor cost, direct labor hours, and machine hours.

a.

(1) If the amount of factory overhead applied is greater than the actual factory overhead incurred, factory overhead is overapplied.

8.

Purchase invoice or receiving report Materials requisition

(2) If the amount of actual factory overhead is greater than the amount applied, factory overhead incurred is underapplied.

9.

b.

Underapplied

c.

Deferred credit

Job order cost accumulation would be most appropriate for professional service firms that provide extended, project-type services for clients. Examples would be architectural, consulting, advertising, or legal services. Job cost sheets would accumulate all direct costs of servicing the client. Such costs would include labor, materials, travel, and subcontracted services. In addition, overhead would be applied using a predetermined overhead rate. The costs accumulated by the job cost sheet would be treated as work in process (a current asset) until the service is completed. Once completed, the cost would be transferred to the cost of services on the income statement.

The engine parts and shop labor are direct to the jobs and are not included in the shop overhead rate. The advertising and administrative expenses are selling and administrative expenses that are not included in the shop overhead but are treated as period expenses. The estimated activity base is determined by dividing the shop direct labor cost by the direct labor rate, as follows: $1,992,000 $40.00 per hour

= 49,800 hours

The predetermined shop overhead rate is: $346,110 49,800 hours

= $6.95 per direct labor hour

Comments: The direct materials cost exceeded the estimate by $280 because 8 meters of materials were spoiled. The direct labor cost exceeded the estimate by $80 because an additional 4 hours of labor were used by an inexperienced employee. The factory overhead cost exceeded the estimate because an additional $60 of factory overhead was allocated because of the increase in direct labor.

Comments: The direct materials cost exceeded the estimate by $320 because 10 meters of materials were spoiled. The direct labor cost exceeded the estimate by $84 because an additional 6 hours of labor were used by inexperienced employees who worked for $1 less per hour. The factory overhead cost exceeded the estimate because an additional $67 of factory overhead was allocated because of the increase in direct labor.

MAKE A DECISION MAD 17–1 a.

Divide the total direct labor cost by the count to determine the direct labor cost per unit for each job:

Job 107 Job 125 Job 160 Job 192

Total Direct Labor Cost $ 63.00 98.00 123.20 51.20

Count 10 14 16 8

Direct Labor Cost per Sports Coat $6.30 7.00 7.70 6.40

b.

The direct labor cost per sports coat increased over the first three jobs, then declined with the last job. The increase for the first three jobs is not related to a change in the direct labor rate, which was the same for all three jobs. Thus, the increase in labor cost must be related to an increase in labor time to make the coats. This is confirmed in (c).

c.

The direct labor hours per sports coat is determined by dividing the total direct labor hours by the count as follows:

Job 107 Job 125 Job 160 Job 192

Direct Labor Hours 4.50 7.00 8.80 3.20

Count 10 14 16 8

Direct Labor Hours per Sports Coat 0.45 0.50 0.55 0.40

The direct labor hours per sports coat have increased over the first three jobs, which has led to the increased direct labor cost per coat noted in (b). Management would want to investigate why the direct labor hours per coat are increasing. d.

The direct labor rate for Job 192 increased from $14 to $16. This may be due to a raise in pay or the use of a more skilled and higher-paid employee. Regardless, the result was a significant drop in the direct labor hours per sports coat, down to 0.40 hour, which is the best of all the jobs. The net result of the higher efficiency, combined with the higher direct labor cost, was a direct labor cost per sports coat that was only ten cents higher than Job 107 and a significant improvement over Job 160.

CHAPTER 17

Job Order Costing

MAD 17–2 (Concluded) As can be seen, the unit costs behave differently for each product. SLK has increasing unit costs during the year, SS is steady, and TT has decreasing unit costs during the year. b.

Management should want to determine why SLK costs are increasing and why TT costs are decreasing. This information can be determined from the job cost sheets for each job. By comparing the cost sheets from job to job (for a particular product), management can isolate the cause of the cost changes. The cost sheets will show how materials, labor, and overhead are consumed across the production process for each job. This information can isolate the problem or opportunity areas.

CHAPTER 17

Job Order Costing

MAD 17–3 a.

The first item to note is that the cost did not go up due to any increases in the cost of labor or materials. Rather, the cost of the plaques increased because Job 238 used more labor and materials per unit than did Job 230. Specifically, Job 230 required exactly the same number of backboards and brass plates as the number of actual plaques shipped. However, Job 238 required six more backboards and brass plates than the number actually shipped (36 versus 30). This is illustrated as follows: Job 230: Materials Walnut plaques: Actual units used Expected units needed to produce 40 plaques Difference

40 units (40) 0 units

Brass plates: Actual units used Expected units needed to produce 40 plaques Difference

40 units (40) 0 units

Labor Engraving: Actual labor hours used Expected labor hours to produce 40 plaques (40 units × 30 min. per unit) ÷ 60 min. per hour Difference Assembly: Actual labor hours used Expected labor hours to produce 40 plaques (40 units × 15 min. per unit) ÷ 60 min. per hour Difference

MAD 17–3 (Concluded) Job 238: Materials Walnut plaques: Actual units used Expected units needed to produce 30 plaques Difference

36 units (30) 6 units

Brass plates: Actual units used Expected units needed to produce 30 plaques Difference

36 units (30) 6 units

Labor Engraving: Actual labor hours used Expected labor hours to produce 30 plaques (30 units × 30 min. per unit) ÷ 60 min. per hour Difference Assembly: Actual labor hours used Expected labor hours to produce 30 plaques (30 units × 15 min. per unit) ÷ 60 min. per hour Difference

17 hours (15) 2 hours

9.0 hours (7.5) 1.5 hours

Job 238’s 26 labor hours are 3.5 more (26.0 hrs. – 22.5 hrs.) than should have been expected for a job of 30 plaques [(30 × 45 min.) ÷ 60 min. = 22.5 hrs.]. As a result, the additional hours of labor cost, applied factory overhead, and direct materials cost caused the unit cost of Job 238 to increase. b.

Apparently, the engraving and assembly work is becoming sloppy. Job 238 required 36 engraved brass plates in order to get 30 with acceptable quality. It is likely that the engraver is not being careful in correctly spelling the names. The names should be supplied to the engraver, using large typewritten fonts, so that it is easy to read the names. The engraver should be instructed to be careful in engraving the names. The assembly operation also needs some improvement. It took 36 assembly operations to properly assemble 30 plaques. It may be that the plates are assembled off-register (crooked) to the backboard. This could be improved by using a fixture to properly align the plate to the backboard. Alternatively, it’s possible misengraved plaques were assembled to backboards and needed to be disassembled, reengraved, and reassembled to new backboards.

CHAPTER 17

MAD 17–4 (Continued) c.

d. The cost of all styles went up in July relative to the previous months because of the change in the cost of the lumber from $5 per board foot to $6 per board foot. This may have been unavoidable and merely a function of market conditions for oak lumber. Regardless, the cause of the price increase should be investigated. However, the material cost per unit for dining tables deviated to the high side relative to the other two styles, beyond the increased cost of lumber. This must be the result of using more lumber per unit in October and December, than during January and April. The case indicates that the dining tables require more skilled workers because they are more difficult to manufacture. We see that the volume for chairs and coffee tables seemed to have dramatically increased from July to the end of the year. It is possible that this increased demand may have created labor-scheduling problems, and less experienced employees were scheduled to the dining table jobs. This might explain the increased material consumption per unit for dining tables during the remainder of the year. This hypothesis should be investigated further. Note to Instructors: While not asked in the case specifically, the material consumption pattern for dining tables is as follows: Dining Tables

CHAPTER 17

Job Order Costing

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 17–1 No. Tandy’s plan is not ethical. Job order costing accumulates and records product costs by jobs. The resulting total and unit product costs can be compared to similar jobs, compared over time, or compared to expected costs. In this way, job order costing can be used by managers for cost evaluation and control. By transferring costs from corporate jobs to government jobs, Tandy’s plan would falsify the job cost information for the individual jobs. This is highly unethical and deteriorates the usefulness of job cost information for management decision making. Tandy’s plan is also illegal, as it falsely inflates the purchase price for the government jobs. This plan is a very bad idea.

The best predetermined overhead rate is machine hours. Although the total overhead applied for each rate developed in part (a) is the same over the entire five-year period (as a result of the method by which the predetermined overhead rates were developed), the predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours yields the least fluctuations in the amounts of over- or underapplied overhead considered on a year-by-year basis. With the rate based on machine hours, the over- or underapplied overhead ranges from $9,440 overapplied to $8,800 underapplied. This fluctuation in the over- or underapplied overhead compares favorably with the fluctuation resulting from using the current overhead base of direct labor cost ($17,000 overapplied to $13,000 underapplied during the past five years).

Re:

Product CCR Job Cost

The graph of job costs for Product CCR indicates two significant trends in job cost. First, there appears to be a strong and consistent “Friday effect.” Unit cost increases significantly on Fridays, then falls on Monday. Each Friday effect is also larger than the previous week. There also appears to be a steady increase in the unit cost over time, with the unit cost increasing significantly over the reported time period. The Friday effect could be caused by a reduction in the efficiency of the workforce on Fridays, as it is the last day of the work week. If this is the case and the trend is not product related, then it should also appear throughout the plant. To test this explanation, management should collect job cost data for other products in the plant. If the trend appears in other products as well, it is a strong indicator that the Friday effect is related to the workforce. Additional analysis should also sort the job cost data by shift and employee. It’s possible that the effect is stronger on one shift than on another, or that just a few employees are responsible for the effect. Sorting by shift and employee will help isolate the source of the Friday effect. The increasing trend in job costs is potentially more complicated. This could be caused by any number of factors, including increased raw materials cost, decreased quality of raw materials, or decreased labor efficiency. To evaluate these potential explanations, management should collect additional data on the cost per unit of direct materials, quantity of materials used, labor and machine hours used, and overhead applied. These data will provide critical insight into the factors driving up job cost.

The unit costs are influenced by both the price and quantity of inputs. On the price side, the cost of steel has dropped from $1,200 to $1,100 per ton. This is apparently the result of the purchasing manager’s decision to reduce the cost of raw materials by going to a new vendor. No other input prices change. Some of the input quantities changed for the worse. Specifically, the following: Input Quantity per Unit Job 206 Job 228 1 2.10 tons Steel input……………………………………… 3 Foundry labor…………………………………… 8.00 hours 5 Welding labor…………………………………… 11.00 hours 1 2 3 4 5 6

2

2.60 tons 4 10.00 hours 6 14.00 hours

105 tons ÷ 50 units 195 tons ÷ 75 units 400 hours ÷ 50 units 750 hours ÷ 75 units 550 hours ÷ 50 units 1,050 hours ÷ 75 units

These numbers were determined by dividing the total input quantities by the number of units produced to discover the inputs per unit. The inputs for the components were unchanged between the two jobs. 2.

A possible reason for this deterioration in performance is related to the purchasing manager’s decision to change vendors in order to secure a lower price per ton. The new vendor is apparently delivering a lower-quality steel product to the company. As a result, the foundry operation is spending more time forming the steel parts. Moreover, the increased steel tons per unit is likely to be caused by scrapping some of the formed parts. The scrapped parts would need to be replaced with additional steel inputs, which would have the effect of increasing the number of tons required to make a unit of product. The welding operators are also apparently having difficulty welding the lowerquality steel parts. As a result, longer welding time is required to assemble a completed unit. Overall, management has learned that the drive for a lower raw materials price was a poor decision. The overall net result was higher costs from the additional waste caused by lower-quality steel.

CHAPTER 17

Job Order Costing

TIF 17–5 1.

Terrance should record the debits for factory wages as a debit to Work in Process. The factory wages are product costs that must be accumulated in the cost of producing the product. Eventually, these wage costs will become part of the finished goods inventory and the cost of goods sold when the gift items are sold. Likewise, the depreciation should be recorded as a debit to Factory Overhead. The overhead is then applied to production work in process. Like the wages, the depreciation will also eventually become part of the finished goods inventory and the cost of goods sold when the gift items are sold. Thus, both the wages and depreciation will end up on the income statement as part of the cost of goods sold, not as individual expenses. The reason is because the accountant wants to match revenues and costs. Costs that are accumulated in the manufacture of products do not become expenses until the items are sold. Until that time, the costs are capitalized as inventory. If these costs were expensed immediately, the period’s income for the firm would be understated to the extent there were any increases in the work in process or finished goods inventories.

2.

Tanisha would not be concerned about expensing administrative wages and depreciation immediately because the benefits received from these costs are not product costs. Instead, these costs benefit a period of time. Thus, these costs should be expensed during the period.

Sales price data for each of the different types of tanks could be incorporated into the visualization to provide management with a visual depiction of how pricing corresponds to the job costing. Additional cost data such as overhead charge rates could improve the job cost estimates.

Job Order Costing

CERTIFIED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT (CMA®) EXAMINATION QUESTIONS (ADAPTED) 1. b.

Baldwin’s annual budgeted overhead is $600,000, computed as follows: Overhead cost per unit: $4.30 – ($1,000 ÷ 1,000) – ($1,500 ÷ 1,000) = $1.80 Overhead hours per unit: 450 ÷ 1,000 = 0.45 hr. Overhead budget per unit: $1.80 ÷ 0.45 = $4.00 Total overhead budget: 150,000 × $4.00 = $600,000

2. b.

Total overhead applied to Job 231 is $303, computed as follows: Tooling overhead per hour: $8,625 ÷ 460 hours = $18.75 Fabricating overhead per hour: $16,120 ÷ 620 hours = $26.00 Job 231 overhead: ($18.75 × 12) + ($26.00 × 3) = $303.00

3. c.

The unit costs for Job ICU2 would consist of direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead per unit. Applied Overhead = Overhead Rate × Number of Machine Hours = $25 × 800 machine hours = $20,000 Cost of Goods = Sold per Unit = = =

4. d.

(Direct Materials Costs + Direct Labor Costs + Applied Overhead) ÷ Number of Units ($13,700 + $4,800 + $20,000) ÷ 7,000 units $38,500 ÷ 7,000 units $5.50 per unit

The overhead applied to a job incurring 20 direct labor hours would be $140, computed as follows: Direct labor hours: $50,000 total labor costs ÷ $5 per hour = 10,000 hours Overhead rate: $70,000 total factory overhead ÷ 10,000 direct labor hours = $7 per direct labor hour Overhead applied to a job incurring 20 direct labor hours: $7 × 20 direct labor hours = $140

CHAPTER 18 PROCESS COSTING DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

a. An assembly-type industry using mass production methods, such as TV assembly, would use process costing because the products are somewhat standard and lose their identities as individual items. In such industries, it is neither practical nor necessary to identify output by jobs. b. Job order costing would be used by a building contractor to accumulate the costs for each individual building because the costs can be identified with each job without great difficulty. c.

Job order costing is best suited for an automobile repair shop because costs can be reasonably identified with each job.

d. Process costing would be best suited for a paper manufacturer because the processes are continuous and the products are homogeneous. e.

Job order costing is best suited for a custom jewelry manufacturer because most of the production consists of job orders and costs can be reasonably identified with each job.

2.

Because all goods produced in process costing are identical units, it is not necessary to classify production costs into job orders.

3.

In process costing, the direct labor and factory overhead applied are debited to the work in process accounts of the individual production departments in which they occur. The reason is that all products produced by the department are similar. Thus, there is no need to charge these costs to individual jobs. For the process manufacturer, the direct materials and conversion costs are charged to the department and divided by the completed production of the department to determine a cost per unit.

4.

The cost per equivalent unit is frequently determined separately for direct materials and conversion costs because these two costs are frequently added at different rates in the production process. For example, materials may be incurred entirely at the beginning of the process, while conversion costs are typically incurred evenly throughout the process.

5.

The cost per equivalent unit is used to allocate direct materials and conversion costs between completed and partially completed units.

6.

The transferred-in cost from Blending to Filling includes the materials costs, direct labor, and applied factory overhead incurred to complete units in Blending.

7.

The most important purpose of the cost of production report is to assist in the control of costs. This is accomplished by holding each department head responsible for the costs incurred in the department.

8.

Cost of production reports can provide detailed data about the process. The reports can provide information on the department by individual cost elements. This can enable management to investigate problems and opportunities.

9.

Lean manufacturing is more efficient and flexible than traditional manufacturing. Employees are cross-trained so they can perform more than one function. Additionally, lean manufacturing uses pull manufacturing, where products are manufactured only as they are ordered by the customer, decreasing inventory levels relative to traditional manufacturing.

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

BE 18–9 The CEO must not have been reading the article very carefully. Lean manufacturing is not primarily an inventory reduction method. Lean manufacturing is a process improvement philosophy that focuses on reducing time, cost, poor quality, and uncertainty from a process. Large inventories are merely a symptom of poorly designed processes. Thus, the CEO’s statement is naive. The company must first remove the reasons for inventory. These causes are poor quality, large setup times, unreliable equipment, poor employee relationships, poor layout design (process focus), and poor supplier relationships. When these are improved, then the inventory level can be reduced, lead times can be shortened, and the company can begin pull manufacturing. If the employees follow the CEO’s orders without making the process improvements, the plant will likely suffer reduced productivity. In addition, the CEO has not provided the training or action plan for moving to lean manufacturing. The CEO has only commanded that it be done. This will create anxiety in the workforce, and it is not consistent with employee involvement. It may also lead to significant problems if employees reduce inventories without applying other necessary principles of lean manufacturing. Shortages and delays will likely occur, hurting customer relations and sales.

0 64,600

800 64,600

64,600 600 65,200

65,400 0 65,400

Supporting explanation: The whole unit inventory in process on March 1 includes both the cereal in the hopper and the boxes in the carousel and, thus, includes no equivalent units for the material during the current period. The reason is because the costs for the cereal and boxes were introduced to the Packing Department in February. Because conversion costs are incurred only when the cereal is filled into boxes, all 800 boxes of the March 1 inventory in process will have conversion costs incurred in March. The product started and completed in March includes 64,600 boxes (65,400 boxes completed less the 800 in the carousel on March 1). These boxes represent 96,900 pounds of cereal [64,600 × (24 oz. ÷ 16 oz.)] because there are 16 ounces to a pound. The inventory in process on March 31 includes the remaining pounds of cereal in the hopper and boxes in the carousel that are properly included in the equivalent unit computation for March (because the costs were incurred in the department in March). No conversion costs have been applied to these boxes because they remain unfilled. Note to Instructors: An actual cereal-filling line begins with the empty box carousel. The box carousel holds flattened boxes that are fed into a high-speed line that opens the box up and places it on a conveyor. The conveyor brings the opened box under a filler head. The cereal pours from the hopper through the filler head into the open box (actually into the inner sealer bag). The box then moves down the line to be boxed into a large shipping carton, which is then moved to the warehouse.

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

Ex. 18–13 The errors are listed below. 1. In computing the equivalent units for conversion costs applicable to the June 1 inventory, the 6,400 units are multiplied by 3/5 rather than 2/5, which is the portion of the work completed in June. Therefore, the equivalent units should be 2,560 (6,400 × 2/5) instead of 3,840. 2.

In computing the equivalent units for conversion costs for units started and completed in June, the June 1 inventory of 6,400 units, rather than the June 30 inventory of 5,200 units, was subtracted from 55,000 units started in the department during June. Therefore, the equivalent units started and completed should be 49,800 instead of 48,600.

3.

The correct equivalent units for conversion costs should be 53,400, instead of 53,480, as computed below. To process units in inventory on June 1: 6,400 × 2/5………………………………………………………………………… 2,560 To process units started and completed in June: 55,000 – 5,200…………………………………………………………………… 49,800 To process units in inventory on June 30: 5,200 × 1/5………………………………………………………………………… 1,040 Equivalent units of production………………………………………………… 53,400

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

Ex. 18–20 a. Cost per megawatt hour (MWh): Fossil plant costs: Conversion costs…………………………………… Fuel…………………………………………………… Total…………………………………………………… Fossil plant megawatt hours (MWh): Megawatts…………………………………………… × Hours………………………………………………… Total…………………………………………………… Cost per Megawatt Hour = Wind farm costs: Conversion costs…………………………………… Wind farm megawatt hours (MWh): Megawatts…………………………………………… × Hours………………………………………………… Total…………………………………………………… Cost per Megawatt Hour =

$40,500,000 10,800,000 $51,300,000 900 600 540,000 MWhs $51,300,000 540,000

= $95 per MWh

$2,700,000 100 300 30,000 MWhs $2,700,000 30,000

= $90 per MWh

The wind farm, with a cost per megawatt hour of $90 as compared to the fossil plant cost of $95 per megawatt hour, is the less costly resource. Note: These figures are close to the national average and show the slight advantage of wind farms. b. Equivalent units of production are calculated when there are beginning or ending inventories that are partially completed to either conversion costs or materials. There are no beginning or ending inventories for generating electricity; thus, there is no need to determine equivalent units of production. c. While the wind farm has a cost advantage over the fossil fuel plant, the wind farm is subject to the presence of wind. Thus, the wind farm is not as reliable as the fossil fuel plant for generating electricity. The fossil fuel plant can be turned on and off on a schedule, while the wind farm is subject to the varieties of nature.

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

Ex. 18–21 The Hawkeye Machining managers are displaying typical fears to a lean manufacturing system. Lean manufacturing removes the safety provided by materials, in-process, and finished goods inventory balances. Indeed, these types of comments reflect conventional manufacturing philosophy, which views inventory as a necessary buffer against surprises and other unwelcome events. Lean manufacturing focuses on removing the causes that require a need for inventory. In the case of materials inventories, lean manufacturing requires all suppliers to provide high-quality materials on a daily basis in just the right quantities needed for a day’s production. If the supplier has unreliable production schedules or quality, then the sources of unreliability would need to be fixed before moving to delivery with lean manufacturing. Only when suppliers are reliable can Hawkeye Manufacturing move to a lean manufacturing strategy without exposing the company to significant risk. The in-process inventories can be reduced significantly if the underlying manufacturing processes are made reliable. The director of manufacturing is correct in his observation but his solution is wrong. The solution is not to increase inventory but to improve the reliability of the machines so that they do not experience emergency breakdowns. Thus, the manufacturing operation must be improved to produce the right product, in the right quantities, at the right quality, and at the right time. Only with this level of reliability can a plant responsibly remove in-process inventories from the system. The finished goods inventory can also be reduced if the manufacturing system can be made responsive to customer demands. A company will no longer have to stock warehouses with product based on guesses at what the customer will want many weeks ahead of demand. Rather, goods are produced at the time the customer orders them. This is what Dell Inc. does. It builds a computer to order rather than stocking the computer and selling it from inventory. In other words, inventory covers a “multitude of sins.” When the “sins” are removed, the inventory can be removed.

The cost of production report may be used as the basis for allocating product costs between Work in Process and Transferred-Out (or Finished) Goods. The report can also be used to control costs by holding each department head responsible for the units entering production and the costs incurred in the department. Any differences in unit product costs from one month to another, such as those in part (3), can be studied carefully and any significant differences investigated.

The report can also be used to control costs by holding each department head responsible for the units entering production and the costs incurred in the department. Any differences in unit product costs from one month to another, such as those in part (3), can be studied carefully and any significant differences investigated.

The resin materials cost per foot of finished product is increasing over the three months, from $0.54 per foot in May to $0.60 per foot in July. This increased cost is not the result of a change in the price, which remained constant at $1.05 per pound. Rather, the increased cost is the result of the ratio of output pounds to input pounds deteriorating. Apparently, the level of scrap in the process is growing as fewer output pounds are being produced from input pounds.

MAD 18–2 Memo To: Production Manager The cost of production report is used to identify the cost per case for each of the four flavors as follows:

Total cost Number of cases Cost per case

$36,000 ÷ 4,000

$

$

7.65

6.53

6.48

9.00

As can be seen, the cost per case of Root Beer is significantly above the cost per case of the other three flavors. A more detailed analysis is necessary to understand the causes of this difference. The individual cost elements that determine the total cost can be divided by the number of cases. This analysis follows: Cost per Case by Cost Element Orange

Concentrate Water Sugar Bottles Flavor changeover Conversion cost Total cost per case

$1.85 0.50 1.20 2.20 1.20 0.70 $7.65

Cola $2.15 0.50 1.20 2.20 0.08 0.40 $6.53

Lemon-Lime

Root Beer

$2.10 0.50 1.20 2.20 0.08 0.40 $6.48

$1.90 0.50 1.20 2.20 2.50 0.70 $9.00

This table indicates that the concentrate per case is actually less for Orange and Root Beer than for Cola and Lemon-Lime. This is because the concentrate supplier charges a higher price for the more popular flavors. The costs per case for water, sugar, and bottles are the same for each flavor. However, the costs per case for changeover are much greater for Orange and Root Beer than for the other two flavors. In addition, the conversion costs per unit for Orange and Root Beer are $0.30 higher than for Cola and Lemon-Lime. These last two cost elements are sufficient to cause the cost per case of Orange and Root Beer to be greater than Cola and Lemon-Lime. Although further analysis is necessary, it appears that Orange and Root Beer are either bottled in short production runs, meaning more frequent changeovers, or that each Orange and Root Beer changeover is very difficult and expensive. The conversion cost per case is larger because the bottling line rate appears slower for Orange and Root Beer compared to Cola and Lemon-Lime. It’s possible that shorter run sizes are related to the slower line rate because it takes some run time to work the line rate up to a fast speed after a changeover. Root Beer costs more per case than Orange because it may have the shortest run length. 18-63 © 2024 Cengage®.

MAD 18–3 The solution to this exercise is to determine if the cost per pound trends in paper stock, conversion, and coating costs are remaining stable over time. The following table can be developed from the data: a.

The cost per pound information is determined by dividing the costs by the pounds transferred out. The yield is determined by dividing the pounds transferred out by the pounds input. b.

Operator 1 believes that energy consumption is becoming less efficient. The energy cost is part of the conversion cost. The conversion cost per output pound has remained constant for the six months. If the energy efficiency were declining, it would take more energy per pound of output over time. Thus, we would expect to see the conversion rate per pound increasing if Operator 1 were correct. Operator 2 believes that there are increasing materials losses from increasing startup and shutdown activity. Yield data would help determine if this were true. If materials losses were growing, then there would be less materials transferred out per pound of inputs over time. The yield has remained constant over the six-month period. Thus, Operator 2’s hypothesis is not validated. The stable cost of the paper stock per output pound also suggests that the yields are remaining stable. Operator 3 is concerned about coating costs. The coating cost per output pound is increasing over time. Thus, we can conclude that the coating efficiency is declining over time. Apparently, twice the coating material was being spread per pound of output in June than in January. The coating operation may need to be repaired or recalibrated. Too much coating is being spread on the paper stock.

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

MAD 18–4 This case is abstracted from a real situation, where higher raw materials costs due to tin content were more than offset by lower energy costs. The cost system used in the real situation was a sophisticated “real-time” expense tracking system. The subtlety of this trade-off analysis is impressive. The first step is to translate the monthly materials and energy costs into their respective costs per unit of monthly production. In this way, the costs can be compared across the months. Apr.

The graph reveals that the tin content and energy costs are inversely related. That is, as the materials cost increased due to higher tin content, the energy costs dropped by more. In fact, the total cost line shows that the energy savings exceeds the additional materials cost, due to higher tin content. Thus, the recommendation should be to purchase raw can stock with the tin content at the $0.33-per-unit level (September level). This is the material that minimizes the total production cost for this set of data. Additional data could be used to determine the optimal tin content, or the point where energy cost savings fail to overcome additional material costs.

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 18–1 1. This case comes from a real story. In the real story, the first reduction in chips had no impact on market demand. The manager was promoted, and the next manager attempted the same strategy—reduce chips by 10%. Again, it worked. The next manager did the same thing. All of a sudden, the market demand for the cookie dropped. A threshold was reached, the cookie was no longer “full of chips,” and it began to lose market share. The reduced chip cookie was nothing like the original recipe. The cookie’s integrity was slowly eroded until it did not live up to its brand name “Full of Chips.” Because the brand erosion occurred slowly over a period of many years, senior management did not notice the product change until the threshold was reached. 2. There are several options that you, as the controller, have: a. Do nothing. This is a safe strategy. It would be highly unlikely that failing to reveal this information to anybody would ever be discovered or “pinned” on you. Unfortunately, this is one of those situations where silence has very little penalty yet speaking up entails some risk. However, silence may not be the best option. Silence may allow the product quality erosion to continue, which could be harmful to the company. b. Talk to Brandon. This is also a reasonably safe strategy and probably the best start. For example, you may discover that the reduction in chips was approved by the vice president or that there was a market study that revealed that the market thought the cookie had too many chips. This kind of information could be discovered very easily and without any risk through a personal conversation with Brandon. c. Talk to the vice president. You could also go right over Brandon’s head to the vice president. This strategy might label you as “not a team player,” so some caution is in order here. You might get Brandon in trouble, or you may get yourself in some trouble. This is probably not the best first move. It is within Brandon’s authority to make the chip decision, so you are, in a sense, secondguessing Brandon when you go to the vice president. You could be accused of being out of your expertise. After all, what do you know about chips and the marketplace? Probably the best move is to talk to Brandon. If you discover that Brandon is acting independently, with his primary motivation being to improve the “bottom line,” then you may need to talk to the vice president. This is a delicate situation. You would need to make your case that the reduction in chips strikes you as a short-term decision that may have short-term benefits but may result in long-term consequences. Again, Brandon has the prerogative to make the chip decision; so, in a sense, you are second-guessing Brandon. Your objections should be done lightly and with care.

TIF 18–2 This activity can be accomplished with multiple groups assigned to one or more of the industry categories. Assign at least one group to each industry category. (Some are easier than others, so some groups may be assigned multiple categories.) Have the groups report their research back to the class. The class’s final product should be a table identifying a company, products, materials, and processes used by these industries. The most difficult information to obtain is the processes and the materials used in the processes. However, the Internet and annual reports provide good information for answers. The text problems also provide examples of processes used in these industries. Use this case to familiarize students with process industries. Note that a set of example companies is provided for these industry categories early in the chapter. The instructor may require that the groups select different companies than those already listed in the text. A suggested solution following this approach is provided on the next page.

TIF 18–3 Memo To:

Andrei Bradshaw

From:

[Student]

Re:

Analysis of August Increase in Unit Cost for Papermaking Department

The increase in the unit costs from July to August occurred for both the materials (pulp and chemicals) and conversion costs in the Papermaking Department, as indicated in the table below. Materials cost per ton………………………….…………… Conversion cost per ton……………………………..…… Total……………………...……………………………………

July $246.33 121.67 $368.00

August $269.12 132.39 $401.51

An analysis was done to isolate the cause of the increased cost per ton. My interviews indicate that there are two possible causes. First, we changed the specification of the green paper in early August. This may have altered the way the machines process the green paper. Thus, it is possible that the paper machines have improper settings for the new specification and are overapplying materials. Second, there is some question as to whether paper Machine 201 is in need of repairs. It is possible that our problem is caused by inefficiencies in this machine. Fortunately, we run both colors on paper Machine 201. Thus, we can separate the analysis between these two possible explanations. I have provided the following costper-ton data for the two paper machines and the two product colors: Paper machine analysis: Materials Cost per Ton Paper Machine 201 ………………………… $290.54 248.07 Paper Machine 301…………………………… Difference……………………………………… $ 42.47

TIF 18–3 (Continued) The results are clear. Paper Machine 201 had a much higher materials and conversion cost per ton in August. Apparently, the paper machine is overapplying pulp. This is resulting in an increase in both the materials and conversion cost per ton. Paper Machine 301 is running at a cost near our historical cost per ton. There is no evidence of a color problem. Both color papers are running at or near the same materials and conversion cost per ton. Thus, the specification change for green has not appeared to cause a problem in the paper-making operation. I predict that if we improve the operation of paper Machine 201, we will be able to run the department near the historical average cost per ton. Supporting calculations: Machine 201: Machine 1 1 1 1

CHAPTER 18

Process Costing

TIF 18–4 1.

This accounting procedure has the effect of rewarding the production of broke. In essence, the procedure communicates to operating personnel that broke is a normal part of doing business. In fact, besides broke being a normal part of business, its production is attractive because of the favorable impact on direct materials costs of the papermaking operation. Recording broke as acceptable and favorable is inconsistent with a total quality perspective, which is based on the concept of producing the product right the first time, every time. Recycling is considered non-value-added in the context of a total quality perspective.

2.

The accounting for broke that is typical in the industry fails to account for the total impact of broke. It is true that the use of recycled materials may reduce the direct materials cost to the operation. However, such a view is very limited. For example, the production of broke has a cost. Machine capacity was used to produce the broke in the first place. Therefore, broke has an original materials cost and a machine cost. Both of these together are likely to be greater than the cost of virgin material. One mill manager once commented, “There is a free paper machine out there.” What he was implying is that if all the machine capacity used to produce broke could be harnessed for good production, it would have been equal to a “free” paper machine. The cost of misused capacity is not captured by most accounting systems in the accounting for broke. There are other hidden costs. Broke production makes the total amount produced difficult to predict. As a result of this source of variation (broke), production schedules are difficult to maintain. For example, if a particular production run has a high amount of broke, then the scheduled run will need to be longer. The longer run, however, has ripple effects throughout the mill, because all of the subsequent production runs will be delayed, as will downstream operations. Also, the complete recycle operation has a cost associated with it (flow control, piping, maintenance, etc.). Typical accounting systems aggregate the cost of the recycle operation with papermaking. Therefore, it is not made visible as a source of wasted resources.

CHAPTER 19 ACTIVITY-BASED COSTING DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Management desires accurate product costs so that its decisions regarding products are correct. Managers are concerned about the accuracy of product costs, which are used for decisions such as determining product mix, establishing product price, and determining whether to discontinue a product line.

2.

A single plantwide overhead rate will provide accurate product costing if products use production department activity-base quantities in nearly the same ratio across departments. For example, if Product X used 2 hours of Department A and 4 hours of Department B activity-base quantities and Product Y used 1 hour of Department A and 2 hours of Department B activity-base quantities, then a single-rate approach would not cause distortion. This is true because the ratio of activity-base usage quantity is 1:2 for both products across the two departments. Additionally, if the production departments have nearly the same factory overhead rate, then there would be no need to use the multiple production department rate method.

3.

Under the multiple production department rate method, factory overhead rates are determined for each production department. Factory overhead is allocated to products depending on the amount of allocation base used in each department. Under the single plantwide rate method, one factory overhead rate is determined for the whole factory and is allocated to products depending on the amount of allocation base used in the factory.

4.

The multiple production department factory overhead rate method would provide more accurate product costs than the single plantwide factory overhead method when there are significant differences in the factory overhead rates across different production departments, and when the products require different proportions of allocation-base usage in each production department.

5.

Under activity-based costing, factory overhead costs are assigned to activity cost pools rather than production departments. The budgeted factory overhead in the activity pools is allocated to products based upon their own unique activity rates.

6.

These activities are part of selling and administrative expenses, which must be treated as period expenses under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Thus, they cannot be included as product costs under GAAP.

7.

If the costs listed in Discussion Question 6 were included as product costs, then they would be part of the cost of inventory. If inventory increased, then the net income would be more than it would be under GAAP, since these selling and administrative expenses would be capitalized in inventory rather than being expensed as required.

8.

Calculating product costs using activity rates may result in greater accuracy than using multiple production department overhead rates when products consume activities in proportions that are unrelated to departmental allocation bases.

9.

Activity-based costing would be preferred when products use selling and administrative activities in proportions that are unrelated to their sales volumes.

10.

Service companies can use activity-based costing to determine the cost of service offerings. This information can be used to determine customer service profitability, which in turn can be used to guide service pricing and strategy.

The factory overhead amounts determined under the single plantwide factory overhead rate and multiple production department factory overhead rate methods are different. The multiple production department factory overhead rate method more accurately calculates the true cost of the products. The single plantwide rate ignores the fact that the commercial product uses more of the more costly overhead in the Testing Department than the residential product. Thus, management should consider using the more complex multiple production department factory overhead method.

Management should select the multiple department factory overhead rate method of allocating overhead costs. The single plantwide factory overhead rate method indicates that both products have the same factory overhead of $800 per unit. This is because each product uses a total of 10.0 direct labor hours per unit. However, each product uses these 10.0 direct labor hours much differently. The gasoline engine consumes 6.0 hours in the expensive Fabrication Department and 4.0 hours in the less expensive Assembly Department. The opposite is the case for diesel engines. Thus, the multiple production department rate method avoids the cost distortions of the single plantwide rate method by accounting for the overhead in each production department separately. In this case, there are both production department rate differences across the departments and differences in the ratios of allocation-base usage of the products across the departments (6:4 vs. 4:6). These conditions will cause the single plantwide rate method to distort product costs.

19-16

The per-unit indirect labor costs in (a) are distorted because setup activity is consumed by the products in a different ratio from the direct labor. Cell phones required 1,200 setups over a volume of 80,000 units (approximately 67 units per production run), while tablet PCs required 2,800 setups over the same volume (approximately 29 units per production run). The activity-based costing method properly allocates the setup-related activity so that the tablet PCs, the setup-intensive product, receive a larger portion of the setup activity cost, while the cell phones receive a smaller portion. The single-rate system allocates overhead only on the basis of direct labor hours. Since the direct labor hours are equal for each product, the allocated indirect labor will also be equal. Again, this is clearly a distortion, since the setup activity (30% of the indirect labor) is not consumed equally by each product.

CHAPTER 19

Activity-Based Costing

Ex. 19–15 (Concluded) Note to Instructors: If you assigned both Ex. 19–14 and Ex. 19–15, then you can make the following observations: The activity-based costing approach provides unit factory overhead cost information that is opposite to that of the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The reason is that the multiple production department factory overhead rate method allocates all factory overhead to the products on the basis of direct labor hours. However, factory overhead includes the setup activity. Setup activity is consumed by the products in ratios that are not equal to their direct labor consumption. Indeed, the blender uses three times as much setup activity as the toaster oven. The activity-based costing method correctly accounts for this difference, while the multiple production department factory overhead rate method incorrectly assumes that this activity is equal to both products (proportional to the direct labor hours or volume of production). Thus, the management of Four Finger Appliance should be encouraged to use activity-based costing information for product-based decisions.

b. The machine hour rate is greater under the single-rate method than under the activitybased method because all the factory overhead is allocated by machine hours under the single-rate method. However, only a portion of the factory overhead is allocated under the machine rate method using activity-based costing. The remaining factory overhead is allocated using the other two activity rates. Thus, the numerator for determining the machine hour rate under activity-based costing must be less than the numerator under the single machine hour rate method. c. Column C indicates that under activity-based costing the low-volume product has a higher per-unit cost than calculated under the single-rate method. In contrast, under activity-based costing the high-volume product has a lower per-unit cost than calculated under the single-rate method. This result happens when there are activities that occur in proportions different from their volumes. In this case, lower-volume products have setups and sales orders occurring in higher proportions of total setups and sales orders than their proportion of machine hours to total machine hours. The opposite is the case for the high-volume product. Thus, the lower-volume products are produced and ordered in smaller batch sizes compared to the higher-volume product. This implies that Whirlpool may wish to simplify its product line by eliminating some of the low-volume products or by attempting to reduce the overall cost of setup and sales order processing activities. Note: The sum of the total overhead from Columns A and B is not equal because there are only three representative products, not all of the products.

CHAPTER 19

Activity-Based Costing

Ex. 19–17 The selling and administrative expenses should not be allocated on the basis of relative sales dollars. The two product lines have very different attributes. The commercial product is relatively inexpensive to sell, while the home product has a number of additional costs associated with it. As a result, allocating selling and administrative expenses using sales volumes would allocate too much selling and administrative expenses to the commercial product and too little to the home product. The commercial product would receive twice as much selling and administrative expenses as the home product because it has twice the sales. An activity-based approach would trace the selling and administrative costs to the products based upon their actual consumption of activities. Such an allocation would show the commercial product to be more profitable than indicated and the home product to be less profitable than indicated.

The complete product profitability report provides much greater insight than did the original report. The air compressors have the lower operating income to sales percentage because the product is a heavy user of Naper’s sales and service activities. The air compressors are ordered in small quantities (hence a high number of sales orders) and have a high amount of post-sale service. All of these factors cause the air compressors to have less operating income as a percent of sales than generators. In contrast, relative to the sales volume, the generators have much less activity and thus have the higher operating income as a percent of sales. Naper can respond to this situation by rationing the amount of service to the air compressor product line, charging air compressor customers for some of the services, reducing the number of service requests by improving the product, or raising the price on the air compressors.

The gross profit as a percent of sales indicated that Customer 1 was the least profitable, while Customer 3 was the most profitable. After deducting the activity costs associated with customer service activities, Customer 3 became the least profitable, while Customer 1 became nearly as profitable as Customer 2. The reason is because Customer 3 consumed much more customer service activities than did either Customer 1 or Customer 2. Apparently, Customer 3 ordered nonstandard products that required specialized bid requests. In addition, Customer 3 required more shipments, indicating smaller shipments to the customer’s location, rather than a few large shipments.

* The activity costs are determined by multiplying the activity rate by the activity-base usage quantity. For example, the administrative activity costs for the Auto line are as follows: $120,000 = 2,000 new policies × $60 per new policy $49,000 = 490 cancellations × $100 per cancellation $97,500 = 390 audits × $250 per claim audit $37,600 = 470 disbursements × $80 per disbursement $170,000 = 8,500 premiums collected × $20 per premium collected

b.

All three insurance lines have the same percentage of underwriting income to premium revenue (30%). The differences among the insurance lines are in the way they consume administrative activities. For example, the Homeowners insurance line has the least profitability due to its high use of administrative activities. Specifically, the Homeowners line has smaller and more frequent claims that require more auditing and disbursement processing than do the other two lines. In addition, the Homeowners line has a much higher rate of cancellation relative to the other two lines (over 50% of new policies). Lastly, the Homeowners line has more premium collections compared to the other two lines. Possibly, the Homeowners line is collected in smaller amounts from more customers than the other two lines. In contrast, the Workers’ Compensation line consumes the fewest administrative activities, causing it to be the most profitable. The Auto line is in between these two.

The plantwide overhead method allocates $117 of overhead to each product, while the multiple production department method allocates $118.80 overhead to snowboards and $115.20 to skis. Both the plantwide and multiple production department methods distort the allocation of overhead because they do not adequately account for how each product consumes overhead. In contrast, activity-based costing allocates $136.20 of factory overhead to snowboards and $97.80 to skis. Activity-based costing more accurately allocates factory overhead because it better accounts for how each product consumes overhead. For example, snowboards consume more direct labor hours in the Finishing Department, which has more overhead. In addition, snowboards consume more production control and materials handling overhead than do skis. This is because snowboards are made in smaller lots, representing a wide variety of styles. Thus, snowboards have higher activity costs than skis.

The unit costs are different even though each product requires 48 minutes of machine time per unit because the products consume many activities in ratios different from the volume. For example, Omega consumes setup, materials handling, inspection, and product engineering activities proportionately greater than its volume as compared to Alpha.

4. The Martin Group is unprofitable, while the other two customers have acceptable margins. This is because The Martin Group requires many customer service, project bidding, and engineering support activities. For example, The Martin Group awards contracts on only 4.2% of the bid efforts (4 contracts ÷ 95 bids); it requests a large amount of service; and it requires extensive design change effort. The company’s options include: a. Stop bidding The Martin Group projects. This does not necessarily mean that all the costs can be avoided. The costs only will be eliminated if the reduced activity translates into lower headcount (dismissals). b. Reprice The Martin Group work. Charge The Martin Group a higher price to compensate for the higher activities required to serve it. However, the customer may not accept the price increase required to move it to a profitable relationship. c. Encourage The Martin Group to reduce the amount of design changes and customer service requests. The design changes are probably driving the customer service requests. This may be appealing, but there may be no incentive for The Martin Group to change its behavior. d. Charge a price for customer service and design change separately. That is, unbundle the pricing of goods from the support services. This is a good longterm solution. In addition, improve the bidding process in order to improve the “hit rate” or the percentage of awarded contracts to bids.

4.

Procedure A requires more activity cost than is being reimbursed by the insurance company. As a result, the hospital may wish to determine if the costs of providing Procedure A are too high. Hospital management may wish to investigate the nursing effort, because the weighted average care units are averaging nearly 11.4 (19,200 ÷ 1,680) wcus per patient day for Procedure A, which compares to 1.8 (6,000 ÷ 3,250) and 5.0 (24,000 ÷ 4,800) wcus per patient day for Procedures B and C, respectively. Alternatively, the hospital may wish to negotiate for a higher reimbursement from the insurance company for Procedure A. Note to Instructors: The total activity costs and activity-base quantities for the three procedures are less than the totals because these are only three “selected” procedures out of a larger population.

The plantwide overhead method allocates $28.60 of overhead to each product, while the multiple production department method allocates $53.25 overhead to receivers and $48.75 to loudspeakers. Both the plantwide and multiple production department overhead methods distort the allocation of overhead because they do not adequately account for how each product consumes overhead. In contrast, activitybased costing allocates $35.51 of factory overhead to receivers and $66.49 to loudspeakers. Activity-based costing more accurately allocates factory overhead because it better accounts for how each product consumes overhead. For example, loudspeakers have four times (320 ÷ 80) more setups than do receivers. In addition, loudspeakers require over 3.8 times (1,750 ÷ 450) more quality control inspections than do receivers. As a result, loudspeakers have higher activity costs than receivers.

Kosmo Co. has low profitability, while the other two customers have acceptable margins. This is because Kosmo Co. requires many customer service, sales order processing, and advertising support activities. For example, Kosmo Co. orders frequently in small order sizes, which increases the sales order processing costs; it requests a large amount of service; and it requires extensive promotional support. The company’s options include: a.

Drop Kosmo Co. This does not necessarily mean that all the costs can be avoided. The costs will only be eliminated if the reduced activity translates into lower spending.

Reprice Kosmo Co. Charge Kosmo Co. a higher price to compensate for the higher activities required to serve it. The customer may not accept the price increase required to move this to a profitable relationship.

c.

Encourage Kosmo Co. to order in larger quantities. This may be appealing. However, if Kosmo Co. wishes to keep its inventories low, it will avoid making large infrequent orders but instead will prefer smaller frequent orders.

d.

Improve the internal operations of Shrute Inc. to reduce the impact of the sales order-related activities. Reduce the cost of sales order processing.

e.

Unbundle pricing. Price customer service and advertising support as separate services. That is, unbundle the pricing of goods from the support services. This is a good long-term solution.

The rework improvement reduces the cost per unit by $2.20 ($65.30 – $63.10), which meets management’s $2.00 per unit cost improvement objective. Halving the moving activity would reduce the moving activity cost by $1.50 per unit (0.10 hour × $15 per hour), which is $0.70 less than the rework improvement ($2.20 – $1.50). Thus, management should select the rework improvement project.

The activity cost per unit increased from $42.70 to $43.00 per unit; thus, the improvements increased the activity cost per unit. Further changes would be required in order for the proposed plan to be cost neutral.

c.

The activity cost per setup would need to decline in order for the revised activity cost per unit to remain unchanged from the base scenario. The revised activity cost per setup can be determined as follows: $0.30 = (x × 20) ÷ 500 units where “x” is the reduction in the setup activity rate required to cover the $0.30 perunit activity cost increment ($43.00 − $42.70). $0.30 × 500 units = (x × 20) $150 ÷ 20 = x x = $7.50

Activity-Based Costing

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 19–1 1.

The net income is larger because the controller took period costs and treated them as product costs for financial reporting purposes. All of the post-manufacturing costs should be treated as an expense in the period incurred according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). If treated as product costs for financial reporting purposes, some of these period costs are included in inventory while the rest are included in the cost of goods sold. As a result, the net income would be higher by the amount of period cost included (capitalized) in inventory.

2.

The controller is not behaving ethically, because the financial statements do not present fairly the results of operations according to GAAP. The new activity-based costing information may be very useful for internal decision making, but the postmanufacturing period costs cannot be included as a product cost. These costs must be treated as a period cost on the financial statements. This is a situation where GAAP requires a method that provides less decision relevance for managers inside the firm. This is because GAAP is focused on providing information that has decision relevance for external users. Thus, one could argue that expensing product costs is prohibited in financial reporting (but not management reporting) in order to provide useful information to external users. The controller should have known that period costs cannot be treated as product costs on the financial statements. Supporting such treatment is considered a breach of professional ethics.

Re:

Product Strategy Recommendations

The product profitability report provided indicates that our product lines generate varying degrees of profitability. By far, our most profitable product line is wireless speakers. The home theater speakers provide a healthy gross profit. However, our marketing costs associated with this product line exceed our gross profit. As a result, the product line is unprofitable as a whole. The wireless headphones, on the other hand, have a very weak gross profit. Consequently, the product line is just barely profitable. Based on this analysis, I offer the following recommendations: Home Theater Speakers We should retain the home theater speakers in our product portfolio. The product generates a healthy gross profit. Unfortunately, we spend too much on marketing this high-volume product. The vice president of marketing assures me that the product has strong recognition in the marketplace. As such, I recommend that we reduce our marketing effort for this product to manage its profitability more carefully. Wireless Speakers Wireless speakers provide both a healthy gross profit and return on sales. Wireless Headphones Wireless headphones are one of our “up-and-comers.” No other competitor has a similar product. Thus, we have the market to ourselves. Yet, this product does not meet our profitability objectives. We are unable to spend much on marketing because our gross profit is too low. This suggests that we have either priced the product too low or the costs associated with making the product are too high. Upon review of the cost information, the costs do not appear to be out of line. Thus, I recommend a significant price increase and an increase in the marketing budget for this important product. I believe the market will accept the price increase, since there are no similar products in the marketplace and customers have been pleased with the product.

CHAPTER 20 COST-VOLUME-PROFIT ANALYSIS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Total variable costs change in proportion to changes in the level of activity. Unit variable costs remain the same regardless of the level of activity.

2.

a. b.

3.

Total fixed cost remains the same regardless of changes in the level of activity. Fixed cost per unit decreases as the activity level increases and increases as the activity level decreases.

4.

Mixed costs are costs that have characteristics of both a variable and a fixed cost. The high-low method uses the highest and lowest activity levels and their related costs to estimate the variable cost per unit and the fixed cost. The total fixed cost does not change with changes in activity level. Thus, the difference in the total cost between the highest and lowest levels of activity is the change in the total variable cost. Dividing this difference by the difference in activity level is an estimate of the variable cost per unit. The fixed cost is then estimated by subtracting the total variable costs from the total costs for the level of activity.

5.

a. b.

6.

A high contribution margin ratio, coupled with idle capacity, indicates a potential for increased operating income if additional sales can be made. A large percentage of each additional sales dollar would be available, after providing for variable costs, to cover promotion efforts and to increase operating income. Thus, a substantial sales promotion campaign should be considered in order to expand sales to maximum capacity and to take advantage of the low ratio of variable costs to sales.

7.

Decreases in unit variable costs, such as a decrease in the unit cost of direct materials, will decrease the break-even point.

8.

Austin Company had lower fixed costs and a higher percentage of variable costs to sales than did Hill Company. Such a situation resulted in a lower break-even point for Austin Company.

9.

The individual products are treated as components of one overall company product. These components are weighted by the sales mix percentages when determining the contribution margin. Therefore, the sales mix affects the contribution margin and thus the break-even point.

10.

Operating leverage measures the relationship between a company’s contribution margin and operating income. The difference between contribution margin and operating income is fixed costs. Thus, companies with high fixed costs will normally have a high operating leverage. Low operating leverage is normal for companies that are labor intensive, such as professional service companies, which have low fixed costs.

Variable costs Variable costs

No impact on the contribution margin. Operating income would decrease.

It is computed as follows: Operating Leverage =

Note to Instructors: Part (c) emphasizes “same-store sales” because of the assumption of no change in fixed costs. McDonald’s will also increase sales from opening new stores. However, the impact on operating income for these additional store sales would need to include an increase in fixed costs.

Variable Cost per Unit = $3,600 = 800 × ($20 – X) =

$3,600 800 units

= $20 – X

= $4.50 = $20 – X = $15.50

Ex. 20–15 The cost of the promotional campaign is the fixed cost in this analysis because we’re trying to determine the break-even adoption rate of the campaign. The contribution margin earned per new subscriber is essentially the revenue earned less the variable cost over the 14-month subscription period. Revenue: (14 mos. – 2 free mos.) × $10/mo. = $120 per new account Variable cost: 14 mos. × $5/mo. = $70 per new account Note: The variable cost is for 14 months because the costs are incurred, even during the free months. The break-even number of subscribers necessary to cover the fixed cost of the promotion would be computed as follows: Break-Even = =

Fixed Costs Contribution Margin per Unit $4,200,000 $120 – $70

= 84,000 accounts

Therefore, if ESPN.com yielded more than 84,000 new subscribers out of the promotional campaign, the costs of the campaign would be covered.

Note to Instructors: The rate charged per minute and the number of average minutes of digital service influence the revenue per account. An interesting question is whether the costs are variable to the number of minutes or number of accounts. If we assume that the costs are variable to the number of minutes, then the break-even analysis revolves around the number of minutes. More likely, the costs are more variable to the number of accounts for this business (mostly customer acquisition and service costs), while the variable cost per minute is likely to be small.

Ex. 20–24 If 420,000 units are sold and sales at the break-even point are 472,500 units, there is no margin of safety.

Ex. 20–25 a.

Asha Inc.: Operating Leverage = =

Contribution Margin Operating Income $1,000,000 $200,000

= 5.0

Samir Inc.: Operating Leverage = =

Contribution Margin Operating Income $1,500,000 $600,000

= 2.5

b.

Asha Inc.’s operating income would increase by 150% (5.0 × 30%), or $300,000 (150% × $200,000), and Samir Inc.’s operating income would increase by 75% (2.5 × 30%), or $450,000 (75% × $600,000).

c.

The difference in the increases of operating income is due to the difference in the operating leverages. Asha Inc.’s higher operating leverage means that its fixed costs are a larger percentage of contribution margin than are Samir Inc.’s. Thus, increases in sales increase operating profit at a faster rate for Asha Inc. than for Samir Inc.

CHAPTER 20

Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis

Prob. 20–2A (Concluded) 8.

In favor of the proposal is the possibility of increasing operating income from $60,000,000 to $61,000,000. However, there are many points against the proposal, including:

• The break-even point increases by 50,000 units (from 400,000 to 450,000). • The sales necessary to maintain the current operating income of $60,000,000 would be 1,050,000 units, or $9,400,000 (50,000 units × $188) in excess of current sales.

• If future sales remain at the current level, the operating income of $60,000,000 will decline to $55,000,000. The company should determine the sales potential if the additional product is produced and then evaluate the advantages and disadvantages enumerated above, in light of these sales possibilities.

Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis

Prob. 20–2B (Concluded) 8.

In favor of the proposal is the possibility of increasing operating income from $692,500 to $880,000. However, there are many points against the proposal, including:

• The break-even point increases by 10,625 units (from 29,375 to 40,000). • The sales necessary to maintain the current operating income of $692,500 would be 74,625 units, or $478,125 (10,625 units × $45) in excess of current sales.

• If future sales remain at the current level, the operating income of $692,500 will decline to $480,000. The company should determine the sales potential if the additional product is produced and then evaluate the advantages and disadvantages enumerated above, in light of these sales possibilities.

Break-Even Sales (units) =

$80,000 $760 – $120

b.

The airline should consider adding the flight. The number of passengers (175) is well above the break-even number of passengers for the flight (125).

c.

Each flight should cover fixed costs and produce a contribution margin for 50 additional passengers above break-even. Thus, the profit for the flight would be computed as: (175 passengers – 125 passengers) × ($760 – $120) = $32,000

d.

First, the airline should consider the impact of the new flight on other flights to Los Angeles. That is, the airline should determine whether the seats sold on the new flight are truly incremental seats for the airline, or whether passengers are shifting from one of the airline’s other flights to this new flight. Second, the airline should consider the impact of the new flight on system load. For example, is there sufficient gate, runway, maintenance, and baggage handling capacity to support the additional flight? If not, the fixed costs of adding the flight could be much higher than $80,000.

MAD 20–2 (Concluded) b. The break-even point is 1,000 passengers [from (a)]. If 900 passengers book the cruise, that will be 100 passengers under the break-even point. The loss can be calculated as: (900 passengers – 1,000 passengers) × ($2,400 – $1,300) = $(110,000) c. The break-even point is 1,000 passengers [from (a)]. If 1,200 passengers book the cruise, that will be 200 passengers over the break-even point. The profit can be calculated as: (1,200 passengers – 1,000 passengers) × ($2,400 – $1,300) = $220,000 d. If the cruise is operating under break-even, the cruise line can take a number of actions to improve the financial performance of the cruise: 1. The cruise line could cancel the cruise. This is an extreme response and would require finding an alternative use for the boat, which is a significant investment that cannot remain idle. 2. The cruise line could change the price of the cruise to find the sensitivity of price to the underlying demand. Possibly, the price could be reduced and the additional revenue from volume could compensate for the lost revenue on the price. The opposite could be the case. The price could be increased and the revenue loss in volume would be less than the increased revenue from price. 3. The cruise line could improve variable operating efficiencies and attempt to reduce the variable cost per passenger. 4. The cruise line could improve fixed cost efficiencies and attempt to reduce the fixed cost of the cruise. 5. The cruise line could increase advertising efforts to fill the cruise.

Fixed Costs Unit Contribution Margin

The unit contribution margin consists of both the per-guest contribution margin from ticket sales and the per-guest contribution margin from concession sales, as follows: ($60 + $30) – ($24 + $16) = $50 contribution margin per guest per day Therefore, $750,000 = 15,000 guests per day $50 b. The daily weekday profit can be determined by multiplying the number of units over break-even by the contribution margin per guest per day, as follows: Break-Even Sales (units)

=

(24,000 guests – 15,000 guests) × $50 per guest* = $450,000 * See the calculation in (a).

c. The daily weekend profit can be determined by multiplying the number of units over break-even by the contribution margin per guest per day, as follows: (40,000 guests – 15,000 guests) × $50 per guest* = $1,250,000 * See the calculation in (a).

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 20–1 In an absolute sense, Rashonda’s actions are devious. She is clearly attempting to use the first four years, which are favorable, as a way to market the partnerships. However, in substance, these are longer-term investments. After the first four years, the risk increases dramatically. The break-even occupancy becomes much more difficult to achieve at 95% than it does at 65%. Focusing on the 65% and remaining silent about the increase to 95% is deceptive. One might argue “let the buyer beware.” After all, the information is in the fine print. A full review of the prospectus would reveal the longerterm reality of these partnerships. This is not a compelling argument. Clearly, Rashonda is putting some favorable spin on this offering. It’s likely that this will come back to haunt her in a court of law. Some investors may claim they were defrauded by lessthan-complete disclosure. Rashonda has a responsibility to provide clear, objective information. The integrity standard requires that Rashonda communicate constraints that would preclude the successful performance of an activity. Also, Rashonda must communicate unfavorable as well as favorable information. Clearly, the increase in the mortgage rate and its impact on the break-even point is unfavorable information that should be given as much visibility as the favorable 65% break-even information.

TIF 20–3 Memo To:

Neil Armstrong, CEO Sun Airlines

From:

Ima Student

Re:

Increasing Ticket Prices

In recent months, Sun Airlines has struggled to stay above break-even sales volume, which has led to a string of monthly losses. Sun’s break-even volume is 75% of capacity, which is significantly higher than the industry average of 65% of capacity. To address this problem, the airline is considering a strategy of increasing ticket prices. This strategy will reduce the break-even sales volume, because higher ticket prices will generate a higher contribution margin. However, higher ticket prices could also reduce the number of tickets sold (passenger volume). If the drop in sales volume exceeds the drop in break-even volume, the strategy will fail and losses will increase. For this strategy to succeed, the airline will have to minimize the impact of the ticket price increase on sales volume. The airline might consider targeting business travelers who need to fly regardless of ticket price. If successful, this strategy can reduce the break-even point without significantly decreasing ticket sales. Restrictions such as only allowing reduced fares on round-trip tickets that include a Saturday night stayover achieve this objective, because business travelers do not wish to be out of town over the weekend. Another way to target business travelers might be to require higher fares for tickets purchased with little advance notice, because business travel is often planned with very short notice.

Anita’s strategy, which is to maintain the price but increase advertising, appears superior.

TIF 20–5 The direct labor costs are not variable to the increase in unit volume. The unit volume is the wrong activity base for direct labor costs. The “number of impressions” is a more accurate reflection of the direct labor cost. An impression is a separate printing color application on the banners. Thus, the analysis should be done as follows: Two Four One Three Color Color Color Color Total 274 698 Number of banners 212 616 1,800 Number of impressions 212 548 1,848 2,792 5,400 Last year’s impressions: 1,800 (180 + 480 + 1,140) Total increase:

Thus, a 125% assumed increase from the unit volume information will understate the potential increase in direct labor cost.

Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis

TIF 20–6 The Shipping Department manager should respond by pointing out that the activities performed by his department are not related to sales volume but to sales orders. The orders require inventory pulling and sorting activities as well as paperwork activities. Thus, even though the sales volume is decreasing, the number of sales orders processed has increased from 1,180 to 1,475 (25%) during the last eight months. The reason for this increase in sales orders is that customers are ordering lower quantities per order than in the past. Thus, it is no wonder the Shipping Department manager is experiencing financial pressure. The amount of work performed by the department is increasing even though sales volume is down.

Therefore, fixed costs are $38,073.55 and variable costs are $8.33 per unit (rounded to two decimal places).

Cost = 38,073.5477 + 8.330145293X, where X represents the quantity of units produced.

1. In the regression output, Intercept represents the portion of costs which are fixed. In other words, this is the cost of producing zero units. The independent variable, Quantity, represents the variable costs. The mathematical model to estimate fixed and variable cost for the first dataset is as follows:

3. The estimate will not provide 100% accuracy. First, in the Regression Statistics box, the R Square is a measure of how closely correlated the provided variables are. As a rule of thumb, the closer to 1, the more closely correlated. For Regression 1 and Regression 2, an R Square of approximately 0.87 and 0.85, respectively, could be considered moderately to highly correlated. However, this is not 100% accurate. Second, the Standard Error of 15,179.42589 in Regression 1 and 123,645.0291 in Regression 2 provides important context. The standard error essentially describes the amount of variation that can happen within outcomes of the regression. Any prediction within this standard error value can be reasonably expected. Third, another indicator of accuracy is Observations. Observations are the number of data pairs provided to the regression. Generally, the higher number of observations, the more accurate the regression can become.

Therefore, fixed costs are $102,530.16 and variable costs are $10.42 per unit (rounded to two decimal places).

Cost = 102,530.157 + 10.42328526X, where X represents the quantity of units produced.

2. In the regression output, Intercept represents the portion of costs which are fixed. In other words, this is the cost of producing zero units.

TIF 20–7 (Concluded) Finally, it is important for management accountants and data analysts alike to think through the effects the underlying business may have on the analytical output. In this case, Steam Precision’s products are made of precious and rare metals, as well as materials such as silicon and carbon fiber. All of these materials have extremely volatile prices in commodity markets. In the regression, we are attempting to assign one single variable cost to all outputs, when in reality there are many different variable costs outside of the control of management. 4. More records as well as additional dimensions (variables) of data could improve the ability of the regression analysis to more accurately predict cost behavior. 5. Management should be warned that there is a margin of error in the regression analysis and the variations may be significant, depending on management’s subjective view.

CERTIFIED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT (CMA®) EXAMINATION QUESTIONS (ADAPTED) 1.

a.

A costs are semivariable or mixed, because they vary between quantities but do not vary consistently, so a portion must be fixed and a portion variable. B costs are fixed in the relevant range (14,000 units). C costs vary consistently for all quantities and thus, are variable.

2.

c.

Kimber’s total manufacturing cost is expected to be $615,000, computed as follows: Variable cost [9,000 units × ($20 + $25 + $10)] Fixed cost (8,000 units × $15) Total expected manufacturing cost

3.

c.

Bolger’s break-even point would increase by 375 units, computed as follows: Revised break-even point [$350,000 ÷ ($300 – $220)] Current break-even point [$360,000 ÷ ($300 – $210)] Increase in break-even point

4.

$495,000 120,000 $615,000

4,375 units (4,000) units 375 units

b. To maximize contribution margin, Eagle Brand should produce 250 units of Product X at $20 contribution margin per unit for a total of $5,000. The total contribution margin for each of the alternatives is as follows: Alternative A: Alternative B: Alternative C: Alternative D:

100 units × ($130 – $100) = $3,000 250 units × ($100 – $80) = $5,000 [200 units × ($100 – $80)] + [20 units × ($130 – $100)] = $4,000 + $600 = $4,600 Not possible since 200 units of Product X require 800 lbs. (200 units × 4 lbs.) of raw materials and 50 units of Product Y require 500 lbs. (50 units × 10 lbs.), which total 1,300 lbs. and exceed the 1,000 lbs. of raw materials that are available.

CHAPTER 21 BUDGETING DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

The three major objectives of budgeting are (1) to establish specific goals for future operations, (2) to execute plans to achieve the goals, and (3) to periodically compare actual results with the goals.

2.

If goals set by the budgets are viewed as unrealistic or unachievable, employees and managers may become discouraged and may not be committed to the achievement of the goals, resulting in the budget becoming less effective as a planning and control tool.

3.

A budget that is set too loosely may fail to motivate managers and other employees to perform efficiently. In addition, a loose budget may cause a “spend it or lose it” mentality, where excess budget resources are spent in order to protect the budget from future reductions.

4.

Conflicting goals can cause employees or department managers to act in their own selfinterests to the detriment of the organization’s objectives.

5.

A static budget is most appropriate in situations where costs are not variable to an underlying activity level. As a result, it is reasonable to plan spending on the basis of a fixed quantity of resources for the year. This will occur in some administrative functions, such as human resources, accounting, or public relations.

6.

Spreadsheet and B&P software not only speed up the budgeting process, but they also reduce the cost of budget preparation when large quantities of data need to be processed. In addition, by using simulation models, management can determine the impact of various operating alternatives on the master budget.

7.

The production requirements must be carefully coordinated with the sales budget to ensure that production and sales are kept in balance during the period. Ideally, manufacturing operations should be maintained at 100% of capacity, with no idle time or overtime, and there should be neither excessive inventories nor inventories insufficient to fill sales orders.

8.

Purchases of direct materials should be closely coordinated with the production budget so that inventory levels can be maintained within reasonable limits.

9.

a.

The cash budget contributes to effective cash planning. This involves advance planning so that a cash shortage does not arise and excess cash is not permitted to remain “idle.”

b.

The excess cash can be invested in readily marketable income-producing securities or used to reduce loans.

10.

The plans for financing the capital expenditures budget may affect the cash budget.

b.

The four-month budgets do not change with any identified activity level; thus, they are static budgets.

c.

While Craig’s budget might first appear satisfactory, Craig must earn enough cash in order to pay for the spring semester tuition. His present budget shows that he will be $1,310 short of the tuition amount ($4,800 – $3,490) by the time he needs to pay his spring tuition. Thus, Craig will likely need to adjust the plan before the fall term even begins. Some possibilities would be to rent a lower-cost apartment or to get a roommate. Other considerations include increasing his part-time job hours and reducing his monthly entertainment and food allowance, or making up the income difference with additional hours during Christmas break. Craig might also see about scholarship opportunities to reduce the tuition payment. The budget gives Craig time to adjust his plans to future events. In this case, Craig can see that his present plan will not provide sufficient cash, thus giving him four months to adjust. If Craig did not budget but went ahead with the original plan, he would be $1,310 ($4,800 – $3,490) short at the end of December, with no time left to adjust.

Depreciation is a fixed cost, so it does not “flex” with changes in production. Because it is the only fixed cost, the variable and fixed costs are not classified in the budget. b.

$ 2,048,400 (2,200,000) $ (151,600)

The excess of actual cost over the flexible budget suggests that the Machining Department has not performed as well as originally thought. The department is spending more than would be expected. In addition, the actual costs over the budget increased from $16,000 in May to $56,400 in June to $151,600 in July. The flexible budget is a superior budgeting approach in this situation because wages and utility costs vary with production. Thus, the budget for these costs should adjust (flex) to the actual level of production. Actual costs can rightfully be compared to the flexible budget because both numbers are based on actual volumes.

2.

The budget indicates that the minimum cash balance will not be maintained in November. This is due to the capital expenditures requiring significant cash outflows during this month. This situation can be corrected by borrowing and/or by the sale of the marketable securities, if they are held for such purposes. At the end of September and October, the cash balance will exceed the minimum desired balance, and the excess could be considered for temporary investment.

2.

The budget indicates that the minimum cash balance will not be maintained in August. This is due to the capital expenditures requiring significant cash outflows during this month. This situation can be corrected by borrowing and/or by the sale of the marketable securities, if they are held for such purposes. At the end of June and July, the cash balance will exceed the minimum desired balance, and the excess could be considered for temporary investment.

CHAPTER 21

Budgeting

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 21–1 Cam should reject Megan’s request to charge the convention-related costs against July’s budget. This is just one example of many attempts to slide expenses into different budget periods than when actually incurred. This is a common issue that controllers face. Often, operating managers will attempt to accelerate future expenditures into low-expenditure months or delay present expenditures into future periods in order to avoid going over budget. These attempts to “slide” expenditures should not be supported or else the whole concept of the budget will begin to become an accounting game. The integrity of the budget process must be defended by the controller. Thus, expenditures should be accrued to the period in which the benefit is received. Cam should reassure Megan that management will not take a single month’s results as an indication of either good or poor management. Month-to-month variation should be expected. Rather, management will take a long-term perspective and evaluate whether the department is staying within budget over the long term. Abnormal month-to-month variations from budget can “wash out” over time. TIF 21–2 Answers will vary per state selected. Examples from the state of Tennessee are shown here. 1.

Re:

Evaluating City of Milton Budget

After reviewing the city of Milton’s budget data, it appears that considerable goal conflict exists within departments, resulting in department managers making poor budgeting and spending decisions. The amount of actual expenditures was less than budgeted for the first 10 months of the budget year. As the budget year-end approached, department managers appear to have spent the remaining excess budget, going over budget in May and June. The amount spent for the year was equal to the total amount budgeted because the difference between the annual actual and budgeted totals is zero. Thus, the managers did not spend more than was authorized for the year. However, the managers appear to have spent the remaining available annual authorization in the last two months to avoid returning those amounts to the General Fund. This is an example of a “spend it or lose it” mentality. The managers appear to be holding back spending during the year to create a small cushion. If an emergency arises, then the manager has resources available to address it. If the emergency doesn’t arise, then the manager uses the amount held back in a flurry of year-end spending, some of which is likely to be wasteful. There are a number of techniques that the city could undertake to more effectively budget and align departmental behavior with the city’s goals. First, departments could adopt flexible budgets, which allow for monthly budgets to change with underlying activity. For example, if the number of prisoners in the jail increased, then the budget would increase proportionately. Department managers with a flexible budget would be less likely to “reserve” a large portion of the budget during the year because an activity change would automatically be reflected in the monthly budget. This reduces the department managers’ ability to create budgetary slack. Another solution would be to allow a manager to request additional funds after the budget year has begun. With this solution, department managers would not need to hold back spending for emergencies, because emergencies could be handled with a separate request. For example, if the town had a natural disaster, police and fire departments could request additional funding to meet the increased budget need. Lastly, the budget could be designed to encourage thrift. For example, the budget could be designed so that managers could carry forward a portion of their unspent budget to future years. This system would reward departmental thrift by allowing the department to keep a portion of the savings for future needs while reducing the incentive for aggressive year-end spending. This would allow the department manager to spend the budgetary slack when needed, rather than forcing the manager to spend this amount frivolously at year-end.

CHAPTER 21

Budgeting

TIF 21–4 1.

The hospital’s new budget method is clearly an example of a flexible budget. The budget changes with changes in underlying activity, such as patient days. Patient days are the number of patients multiplied by the number of days in the hospital. As the number of patient days changes, it would be reasonable to expect that the hospital’s variable costs should also change. In addition, the last quote suggests that the new budget approach is a monthly continuous budget. The budget helps the managers plan month-by-month expenditures.

2.

The advantage of a flexible budget is to accurately plan variable costs of the hospital with changes in the underlying activity base. Using a static budget would create actual deviations from budget that would be difficult to interpret. Managers would not be able to determine if the deviations were the result of cost (in)efficiencies or whether they were due to changes in activity level. A flexible budget causes the budget to “flex” with changes in underlying activity level so that any remaining actual deviations from budget can be identified more clearly with (in)efficiency or other special causes. The continuous budget also provides timely information to managers so that they can adjust actual spending patterns to the budgeted amounts.

TIF 21–5 1.

The budget information indicates that the actual expenditures by the Operations Department exceeded what was planned by $12,000. The bank manager may ask the operations manager why the travel and training expenditures exceeded the plan by a total of $20,000. It may be that the additional expenditures were necessary, but an explanation is in order.

2.

The bank manager does not know if the actual resources consumed by the Operations Department are the right amount of resources for doing the right things. In other words, this budget doesn’t say anything about the actual work of the Operations Department and how much cost this work consumes. The bank manager doesn’t have a good sense if there is waste in the department or not. The $12,000 excess expenditure over budget raises several questions. If the department did twice as much work as planned, then the $12,000 is a bargain. If, on the other hand, the department did much less work than planned, then the $12,000 understates how poorly the department used resources. Again, how much work the department actually did is unknown, so these questions cannot be answered. A flexible budget would provide more information about the work of the department. Examples of the kind of work conducted by the department might include processing credit card statements, processing checking statements, processing loan repayments, and correcting errors.

CHAPTER 21

Budgeting

TIF 21–5 (Concluded) The budget doesn’t indicate why there was more travel and training than expected. Maybe the department introduced a new computer system, and all employees needed off-site training in order to use the system. This would explain the additional spending on travel and training. The training needed to be done, regardless of the budget. The lower-than-expected overtime may be a favorable result. However, there may have been less overtime because employees were involved in more training days than expected or performed less work than planned. Again, a flexible budget would provide more information for evaluating the department’s performance.

TIF 21–6 Domino’s could use a master budget to plan operations consistent with the sales forecast. The sales forecast could be used to develop the production budget for pizzas. The sales and production budgets would be identical because there would be no finished goods inventory for cooked pizzas. The sales (production) budget would be used to develop a direct materials purchases budget. For example, the pizza ingredients, packaging materials, beverages, and other materials could be planned from the sales budget. In addition, the cost of delivery fuel (driver reimbursement for gas) could be planned from the sales budget. The sales (production) budget could also be used to develop the direct labor budget for cooks, counter staff, dough makers, and drivers. Much of the overhead is related to the number of restaurants, rather than the number of pizzas sold. That is, the number of restaurant locations will drive management salaries, rent, utilities, insurance, and other overhead costs. The drivers own the delivery vehicles; thus, vehicle depreciation and maintenance costs are not part of Domino’s overhead budget. The budget process could be used to direct and coordinate all the various restaurants. In this way, all the managers would be operating under the same set of assumptions. The actual performance of the company and the individual stores could be compared with the budget in order to provide all levels of the organization appropriate feedback and control. This feedback can be used to adjust operations to any changes that may be occurring. Thus, if sales are expanding faster or slower than planned, costs could be brought into line rapidly. This would help prevent the company from becoming either short of drivers and food due to sales outpacing projections or overbuilding stores before sales have materialized in sufficient volume to justify the cost.

CERTIFIED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT (CMA®) EXAMINATION QUESTIONS (ADAPTED) 1. d. Flexible budgets are based on the output actually achieved and therefore provide a realistic comparison of budgeted and actual revenue and costs. 2. b. Hannon’s budget for the purchase of inventory should be $540,000, computed as follows: 75% of the cost of inventory to be sold in August [($728,000 ÷ 1.3)* = $560,000; $560,000 × 75%]…………………………$420,000 25% of the cost of inventory to be sold in September [($624,000 ÷ 1.3)* = $480,000; $480,000 × 25%]………………………… 120,000 Budget for purchase of inventory in August…………………………… $540,000 * Sales = Cost of Inventory + (30% × Cost of Inventory) = 1.3 × Cost of Inventory Thus, Cost of Inventory = (Sales ÷ 1.3)

3. c. Ming should plan to produce 7,133 units in July, computed as follows: Sales – Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory 6,300 − 470 + 590 = 6,420 units before allowing for scrap 6,420 ÷ 0.9 = 7,133 units to produce, allowing for 10% scrap 4. c. The cost of one laminated putter head is $52, computed as follows: Laminated putter head cost per unit: Steel Copper Direct labor Variable OH Fixed OH Total cost

$ 5.00 15.00 22.00 6.25 * 3.75 ** $52.00

Direct labor hours required for production: Forged units: 8,200 – 300 + 100 = 8,000 units; 8,000 units × 0.25 hr. per unit = Laminated units: 2,000 – 60 + 60 = 2,000 units; 2,000 units × 1.0 hr. per unit = Total direct labor hours

2,000 hours

2,000 hours 4,000 hours

Variable overhead rate per hr. = $25,000 ÷ 4,000 hrs. = $6.25 Fixed overhead rate per hr. = $15,000 ÷ 4,000 hrs. = $3.75 * 1 direct labor hour per laminated putter head × $6.25 = $6.25 ** 1 direct labor hour per laminated putter head × $3.75 = $3.75

CHAPTER 22 EVALUATING VARIANCES FROM STANDARD COSTS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

Standards are performance goals. Manufacturing companies normally use standard cost for each of the three following product costs: • Direct materials • Direct labor • Factory overhead Standard cost systems enable management to determine the following: • How much a product should cost (standard cost) • How much it does cost (actual cost)

2.

Reporting by the “principle of exceptions” is the reporting of only variances (or “exceptions”) between standard and actual costs to the individual responsible for cost control. This reporting allows management to focus on correcting cost variances.

3.

The two variances in direct materials cost are: • Direct materials price • Direct materials quantity

4.

The offsetting variances might have been caused by the purchase of low-priced, inferior materials. The low price of the materials would generate a favorable materials price variance, while the inferior quality of the materials would cause abnormal spoilage and waste, thus generating an unfavorable materials quantity variance.

5.

a.

The two variances in direct labor costs are: (1) Direct labor rate (2) Direct labor time

b.

The direct labor cost variance is usually under the control of the production supervisor.

6.

No. Even though the assembly workers are covered by union contracts, direct labor cost variances still might result. For example, direct labor rate variances could be caused by scheduling overtime to meet production demands or by assigning higher-paid workers to jobs normally performed by lower-paid workers. Likewise, direct labor time variances could result during the training of new workers or from a shortage of skilled employees.

7.

Standards can be very appropriate in repetitive service operations. Fast-food restaurants can use standards for evaluating the productivity of the counter and food preparation employees. In addition, standards could be used to plan staffing patterns around various times of the day (e.g., increasing staff during the lunch hour).

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS (Continued) 8.

9.

10.

a.

The variable factory overhead controllable variance results from incurring a total amount of variable factory overhead cost greater or less than the amount budgeted for the level of operations achieved. The fixed factory overhead volume variance results from operating at a level above or below 100% of normal capacity.

b.

The factory overhead cost variance report presents the standard factory overhead cost variance data (i.e., the volume and the controllable variance).

a.

Favorable variance. A credit balance in the factory overhead account at the end of the period means that applied factory overhead is larger than the actual factory overhead, which indicates a favorable total factory overhead variance.

b.

The individual controllable and volume variances could be favorable or unfavorable. The favorable total factory overhead variance only means that the “net” of the controllable and volume variances is favorable. Both variances could be favorable or one favorable and the other unfavorable.

A debit balance in the account represents a net unfavorable direct materials price variance.

A standard cost system provides the company’s management a cost control tool using the principle of management by exception. Using this principle, costs that deviate significantly from standards can be investigated and corrected. The standard cost system also can be used to motivate employees to work efficiently with their time, use of materials, and other factory overhead resources.

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

Ex. 22–4 a.

Price variance: Direct Materials Price Variance

Quantity variance: Direct Materials Quantity Variance

= (Actual Quantity – Standard Quantity) × Standard Price = (900,000 lbs. – 916,000 lbs.) × $2.70 per lb. = $(43,200) Favorable

Total direct materials cost variance: Direct Materials Cost Variance

=

Direct Materials Price Variance + Direct Materials Quantity Variance

= $45,000 Unfavorable + $(43,200) Favorable = $1,800 Unfavorable

b.

The direct materials price variance should normally be reported to the Purchasing Department, which may or may not be able to control this variance. If materials of the same quality were purchased from another supplier at a price higher than the standard price, the variance was controllable. However, if the variance resulted from a market-wide price increase, the variance was not subject to control. The direct materials quantity variance should be reported to the proper level of operating management. For example, if lower amounts of direct materials had been used because of production efficiencies, the variance would be reported to the production supervisor. However, if the favorable use of raw materials had been caused by the purchase of higher-quality raw materials, the variance should be reported to the Purchasing Department. The total materials cost variance should be reported to senior plant management, such as the plant manager or materials manager.

b.

The employees may have been less-experienced workers who were paid less than more-experienced workers or poorly trained, thereby resulting in a lower labor rate than planned. The lower level of experience or training may have resulted in less efficient performance. Thus, the actual time required was more than standard. Unfortunately, the lost efficiency was not offset by the lower labor rate.

Ex. 22–10 (Concluded) (2) Sewing Department Rate variance: Direct Labor Rate Variance

=

(Actual Rate per Hour – Standard Rate per Hour) × Actual Hours

= ($19.25 – $18.00) × 19,600 hours = $24,500 Unfavorable

Time variance: Direct Labor Time Variance

=

(Actual Direct Labor Hours – Standard Direct Labor Hours) × Standard Rate per Hour

= (19,600 hrs. – 20,000 hrs.*) × $18.00 per hour = $(7,200) Favorable

* 0.5 hr. × 40,000 units Total direct labor cost variance: Direct Labor Cost Variance

= Direct Labor Rate Variance + Direct Labor Time Variance = $24,500 Unfavorable + $(7,200) Favorable = $17,300 Unfavorable

b.

The two departments have opposite results. The Cutting Department has a favorable rate variance and an unfavorable time variance, resulting in a total favorable cost variance of $4,800. In contrast, the Sewing Department has an unfavorable rate variance but has a favorable time variance, resulting in a total unfavorable cost variance of $17,300. The causes of this disparity are worthy of investigation. There are many possible causes including tight or loose standards, inferior or superior operating methods, and inappropriate or appropriate use of overtime. Combining both departments, the overall operation shows an unfavorable cost variance of $12,500 ($17,300 – $4,800) as a result of the weak performance in the Sewing Department.

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

Ex. 22–11 a.

Rate variance: Direct Labor Rate Variance

(Actual Rate per Hour – Standard Rate per Hour) × Actual Hours = ($15.40 – $16.00) × 16 hours

=

= $(9.60) Favorable

Time variance: Direct Labor Time Variance

=

(Actual Direct Labor Hours – Standard Direct Labor Hours) × Standard Rate per Hour

= (16 hrs. – 14 hrs.*) × $16.00 per hour = $32.00 Unfavorable * The standard direct labor hours for 70 meals is 14 hours, computed as follows: 70 meals × 0.2 hour (standard direct labor per meal) = 14 hours

Total direct labor cost variance: Direct Labor Cost Variance

= Direct Labor Rate Variance + Direct Labor Time Variance = $(9.60) Favorable + $32.00 Unfavorable = $22.40 Unfavorable

b.

The mobile kitchen must be staffed with at least two employees to meet demand (70 meals). Employees are unable to move to another truck once they are assigned for the day. As a result, an unfavorable time variance will occur any time the number of meals actually made falls below the maximum number of meals that could be generated by two employees. In this case, two employees were assigned to the truck with the potential to make 80 meals [16 standard hours (2 employees × 8 hours per day) ÷ 0.2 standard hour per meal]. Mexicali On the Go could reduce the time variance and improve the profitability of the Donna’s Mobile Fiesta by targeting locations that could allow it to increase sales volume to 80 meals, the maximum that could be produced by two employees.

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

Ex. 22–12 Step 1: Determine the standard direct materials and direct labor per unit. Standard direct materials quantity per unit: Direct materials lbs. budgeted for April: $40,000 $2.00 per lb.

= 20,000 lbs.

Standard pounds per unit: 20,000 lbs. 50,000 units

= 0.4 standard lb. per unit

Standard direct labor time per unit: Direct labor hrs. budgeted for April: $600,000 $16.00 per hr.

= 37,500 direct labor hrs.

Standard direct labor hrs. per unit: 37,500 hrs. 50,000 units

= 0.75 standard direct labor hr. per unit

Step 2: Using the standard quantity and time rates in Step 1, determine the standard costs for the actual April production. Standard direct materials at actual volume: 48,500 units × 0.4 lb. per unit × $2.00………………………………………… Standard direct labor at actual volume: 48,500 units × 0.75 direct labor hr. per unit × $16.00……………………… Total……………………………………………………………………………………

$ 38,800 582,000 $620,800

Step 3: Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances, assuming no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances. Actual direct materials used in production……………………………………… Standard direct materials (Step 2)………………………………………………… Direct materials quantity variance—unfavorable*………………………………

$ 41,800 (38,800) $ 3,000

* (20,900 lbs. – 19,400 lbs.) × $2.00 = 3,000 U $41,800 ÷ $2.00 = 20,900 lbs. $38,800 ÷ $2.00 = 19,400 lbs.

Actual direct labor…………………………………………………………………… $ 572,800 Standard direct labor (Step 2)……………………………………………………… (582,000) Direct labor time variance—favorable**………………………………………… $ (9,200) ** 48,500 units × 0.75 hr. = 36,375 standard hrs. $572,800 ÷ $16.00 = 35,800 actual hrs. (35,800 hrs. – 36,375 hrs.) × $16.00 = $(9,200) F

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

Ex. 22–17 In determining the volume variance, the productive capacity overemployed (2,000 hours) should be multiplied by the standard fixed factory overhead rate of $3.80 ($7.30 – $3.50) to yield a favorable variance of $7,600. The variance analysis provided by the chief cost accountant incorrectly multiplied the 2,000 hours by the total factory overhead rate of $7.30 per hour and reported it as unfavorable. A correct determination of the factory overhead cost variances is as follows: Variable factory overhead controllable variance: Actual variable factory overhead cost incurred………… Budgeted variable factory overhead for 132,000 hours (132,000 × $3.50)…………………………………… Variance—favorable………………………………………

The budgeted variable factory overhead costs are determined by multiplying 22,000 hours by the variable factory overhead cost rate for each variable cost category. These rates are determined by dividing each budgeted amount (estimated at the beginning of the month) by the planned (budgeted) volume of 20,000 hours. Thus, for example: $50,600 = ($46,000 ÷ 20,000 hrs.) × 22,000 hrs. $13,200 = ($12,000 ÷ 20,000 hrs.) × 22,000 hrs. $22,000 = ($20,000 ÷ 20,000 hrs.) × 22,000 hrs.

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

Appendix Ex. 22–25 a.

Normal Revenue = Normal Selling Price × Normal Units Sold = $20 × 125,000 units = $2,500,000

b.

Planned Revenue = Planned Selling Price × Planned Units Sold = $19 × [125,000 units + (125,000 units × 16%)] = $19 × 145,000 units = $2,755,000

c.

Actual Revenue for Nov. = Actual Selling Price × Actual Units Sold = $19 × 135,000 units = $2,565,000

d.

Revenue Price Variance =

(Planned Selling Price − Actual Selling Price) × Actual Units Sold

= ($19 − $19) × 135,000 units = $0 e.

Revenue Volume Variance =

(Planned Units Sold − Actual Units Sold) × Planned Selling Price

= (145,000 units − 135,000 units) × $19 = $190,000 Unfavorable f.

Decreasing the selling price to $19 did increase total revenue to $2,565,000 from $2,500,000, but it did not increase the revenues by 16% as planned. Instead, revenues only increased by $65,000 ($2,565,000 − $2,500,000) or 2.6% ($65,000 ÷ $2,500,000). This resulted in an unfavorable revenue volume variance of $190,000.

The variance analyses should be based on the standard amounts at actual volumes. The budget must flex with the volume changes. If the actual volume is different from the planned volume, as it was in this case, then the budget used for performance evaluation should reflect the amount of direct materials and direct labor that will be required for the actual production. In this way, spending from volume changes can be separated from efficiency and price variances.

The budgeted variable costs are determined by multiplying the 8,860 actual hours by the variable overhead rate (the May budget divided by 8,400 hours for each variable overhead cost). Thus, Indirect factory wages, $31,896 = 8,860 hrs. × ($30,240 ÷ 8,400 hrs.) Power and light, $21,264 = 8,860 hrs. × ($20,160 ÷ 8,400 hrs.) Indirect materials, $17,720 = 8,860 hrs. × ($16,800 ÷ 8,400 hrs.)

The cost variance that would result from hiring another employee would have been $759 unfavorable from part (4) above. Thus, the net benefit for paying the bonus over hiring another employee is $80 ($679 U – $759 U).

The Mixing Department is producing at a labor time that is slightly better than standard, thus producing a favorable direct labor time variance. This may be the result of using a higher grade of labor. The net impact for the Mixing Department is favorable by $127.50 [$97.50 + $(225)]. The Filling Department had an unfavorable direct labor time variance. This may be the result of using a lower grade of labor in the department. The net impact for the department is unfavorable by $160.00 [$216.00 + $(56.00)]. Thus, the savings in the labor rate from using a lower grade classification of labor was insufficient to offset the loss of efficiency from such labor.

14. The production volume of 1,375 cases determined in part (5) was planned at the beginning of August. The variances compare the actual cost and the standard cost of actual production for the month. Thus, the standard cost must be based on the 1,500 units of actual production. This amount is compared with an actual cost also based on 1,500 units. The variable costs of the budget must flex to the actual production volume so that variances are compared across the same production volume.

Direct Labor Time Variance = (Actual Staff Hours – Standard Staff Hours) × Standard Rate per Hour = (40 hrs. – 28 hrs.) × $35 per hour = $420 Unfavorable Note that the standard rate per hour is set at the Level 2 rate for this Level 2 project. We are comparing the Level 1 performance to the Level 2 standard. The Level 1 programmer is not as efficient as a Level 2 programmer on a Level 2 project. Therefore, there is an unfavorable labor time variance. b.

Direct Labor Rate Variance = (Actual Rate per Hour – Standard Rate per Hour) × Actual Hours = ($25 – $35) × 40 hrs. = $(400) Favorable The Level 1 programmer has a lower labor rate than the Level 2 programmer. Thus, there is a favorable direct labor rate variance.

c. The amount of the unfavorable time variance is greater than the amount of the favorable rate variance. Thus, this analysis suggests that it is not cost effective to use a Level 1 programmer on a Level 2 project. The Level 1 programmer’s lower cost per hour does not make up for the slower coding performance.

The first, and most obvious, factor is the mix of admissions. If the mix of admissions becomes more heavily weighted toward unscheduled admissions, then the variance will be negatively impacted. This mix is not controllable by the department. Additional causes for an unfavorable variance would be labor inefficiency, incomplete data, lack of staff training, lack of standard operating procedures in the Admissions Department, computer downtime, and difficult admissions caused by age, illness, or language.

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 22–1 The use of ideal standards is a legitimate concern for Henry. It is likely that such standards are too tight and do not include the necessary fatigue factors that are typical in this type of operation. It seems as though Henry is arguing for practical standards that can be attained if the operation is running well. Maybe some standard in between is warranted, but that is not the issue. The issue is Dash’s method of operation. Dash has effectively agreed to have this dispute decided by a senior official. However, Dash is trying to seal the fate of the argument behind the scenes, before the issue is discussed openly as agreed. Moreover, Dash is attributing poor motives to Henry behind his back. Dash may have short-term success with this method of operation, but in the long term, he will likely alienate himself within the organization. He may create a distrustful environment that would eventually hamper his ability to provide open, honest feedback. People eventually may avoid him and hide the truth from him. TIF 22–2 This is a case where there is strong evidence that the poor performance that is occurring inside the Assembly Department may be the result of behaviors outside of the department. This is one of the classic problems with variance analysis. Often, the variances reflect causes outside of the responsibility center manager’s control. That is what appears to be happening here. The Assembly supervisor complains that both the purchased parts and incoming material from the Fabrication Department have been giving them trouble. A review of performance reports reveals the following: (1) the materials price variance is very favorable; (2) the Fabrication Department’s labor time variance is also very favorable. A possible explanation is that the Purchasing Department found a low-price supplier. The low price translated into a favorable variance. Unfortunately, it appears the company is “getting what it paid for.” Specifically, it appears that the quality of the purchased parts has gone down, thus making assembly much more difficult in the Assembly Department. The Fabrication Department may be performing work faster than standard—again, resulting in a favorable labor time variance. It may be that the department is working too fast. Specifically, the speed is resulting in poor fabrication quality. Again, the Assembly Department is bearing the cost of poorly fabricated parts. The problem in both instances is that the variances measure only productivity and price savings but not quality. As a result, there are strong incentives to purchase from lowest bidders, work fast, cut corners, and push work on through. Unfortunately, the company is worse off, as a whole, due to this set of situations. The sum of the unfavorable variances in Assembly exceeds the favorable variances in the other departments. The analyst will need to confirm these suspicions. If they are supported, the company may wish to introduce quality measures in addition to the variance information in order to avoid the counterproductive behaviors in Purchasing and Fabrication. 22-65 © 2024 Cengage®.

CHAPTER 22

Evaluating Variances from Standard Costs

TIF 22–3 To:

Plant Manager

From: Controller Re:

Variable Factory Overhead Variances

I have reviewed your concerns related to the recent variable overhead cost variance report that indicates the plant incurred a total variable factory overhead unfavorable variance of $12,320. My analysis of the variable nature of the three costs covered in the report follows. The supplies costs are likely variable to machine usage and number of units produced. Likewise, except for the power required to keep the business open, power and light costs vary with the amount of energy used in the plant, which varies with the number of units produced. However, these two costs are not where most of the unfavorable variance of $12,320 arises. The major cause of the unfavorable variance appears to originate with indirect factory wages. Indirect factory wages generated $8,500 of the $12,320 unfavorable variance, which is almost 70% of the total variance. The variance of $8,500 is 28% ($8,500 ÷ $30,600) higher than the standard. This is much greater than the 10% difference between the existing production volume and full capacity. In other words, more is being spent on indirect wages than would even be implied by 100% production. You may be correct that indirect factory wages are not completely variable. Let’s schedule a meeting to discuss this further, including what actions we might take to better control and report indirect factory wages costs. TIF 23–4 (FIN MAN); TIF 9–4 (MAN) 1.

Because 13 of the 18 direct materials price variances are favorable, this indicates that the actual price is lower than the standard price. However, the more recent trend is toward unfavorable variances (actual price greater than standard price). Because the computed direct materials quantity variances are (on median) always greater than zero, this indicates that employees are consistently using more than the standard 350 pounds of stainless steel per unit.

The direct labor rate variances are generally unfavorable. Additionally, all recent direct labor rate variances are unfavorable. This indicates that the actual price for labor is greater than the standard price. Because the computed direct labor time variances are (on median) always greater than zero, this indicates that employees are consistently spending more time than the standard 12 hours of labor per unit.

b. The materials variance of $11,000 should be investigated, because it exceeds 10% of the budgeted amount ($100,000 × 0.10). The direct labor variance is $4,000, which is less than 10% of budget ($50,000 × 0.10), so it would not be investigated under the company policy.

CHAPTER 23 DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS AND PRODUCT PRICING DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

a.

Differential revenue is the amount of increase or decrease in revenue expected from a particular course of action compared with an alternative.

b.

Differential cost is the amount of increase or decrease in cost expected from a particular course of action compared with an alternative.

c.

Differential profit (loss) is the difference between differential revenue and differential cost.

2.

The differential revenues and costs of the lease option should be compared against selling the building. The differential revenue would be the lease revenue compared to the proceeds from sale. The differential expenses would be the costs associated with leasing the building, including maintenance, property tax, and insurance, compared to the expenses of selling, such as sales commissions. The opportunity cost of money should also be considered in the analysis.

3.

If there is demand for the premium-grade product, the differential revenue (premium less commodity) may exceed the differential cost to process the product to premium grade.

4.

A company should only accept business at a special price if the lower price will not contaminate the regular pricing for other customers or induce other customers to demand the special price. In addition, the company must be careful not to violate the Robinson-Patman Act, which prohibits uncompetitive price differences across different markets for the same product within the United States. Lastly, the company must consider the longer-term ramifications of offering discount business to a customer that may wish to order in the future.

5.

It would be reasonable to purchase from the supplier if the fixed cost per unit was less than 50 cents. That is, if the fixed cost is less than 50 cents per unit, then the variable cost per unit would exceed the supplier’s price, making the supplier price more attractive.

6.

One of the financial considerations is the profitability of the store, including all the revenues and the variable and fixed costs associated with the store because they would all be differential to the decision. In addition, any costs of closing the store and preparing the store for disposal would need to be considered (legal costs, demolition costs, employee severance costs). Lastly, the opportunity cost of the value of the equipment and land (either in cash or rental income) should be considered. For example, if the opportunity value of the assets were $500 per month, then the store would need to have a profitability exceeding this amount to remain an attractive alternative.

7.

In the long run, the normal selling price must be set high enough to cover all costs (both fixed and variable) and provide a reasonable amount for profit.

8.

In setting prices, managers should also consider such factors as the prices of competing products and the general economic conditions of the marketplace.

9.

The target cost concept begins with a price that can be sustained in the marketplace, then subtracts a target profit, thus determining the target cost. The cost is made to conform to the price required in the market. In contrast, under cost-plus, a markup is added to the cost. The resulting price is assumed to be acceptable in the market.

10.

The proper measure of product value in a bottlenecked process is the contribution margin per bottleneck hour.

CHAPTER 23

Differential Analysis and Product Pricing

Ex. 23–5 Note to Instructors: Many students may be unfamiliar with the financial services industry. This exercise provides an opportunity to introduce students to some basic terms and concepts used within the industry. a.

The Investor Services segment serves the retail customer, you and me. These are the brokerage, Internet, and mutual fund services used by individual investors. The Advisor Services segment includes the same services provided for financial institutions, such as banks, mutual fund managers, insurance companies, and pension plan administrators.

b.

Variable costs in the Investor Services segment include: 1.

Commissions to brokers

2.

Fees paid to exchanges for executing trades

3.

Transaction fees incurred by Schwab mutual funds to purchase and sell shares

4.

Advertising

Fixed costs in the Investor Services segment include: 1.

Depreciation on brokerage offices

2.

Depreciation on brokerage office equipment, such as computers and computer networks

3.

Property taxes on brokerage offices

4.

Amortization of intangible assets

c.

Operating income……………………………………………… Depreciation……………………………………………………… Estimated contribution margin……………………………… d.

Investor Services (in millions)

Advisor Services (in millions)

$3,079 288 $3,367

$1,221 126 $1,347

If one assumes that the assets and related fixed costs that serve advisor investors (computers, servers, and facilities) would not be sold but would be used by the other sector, then the contribution margin of $1,347 million would be an estimate of the reduced profitability. If the fixed assets were sold for no gain or loss, then the operating income decline would approach $1,221 million. Because the advisor and retail investors use nearly the same assets, the $1,347 million answer is probably the better estimate.

The benefit from using an outside service is shown to be $8,000 greater than performing the layout work internally. The fixed costs (depreciation expenses) in the budget are irrelevant to the decision. Thus, the work should be purchased from the outside on a strictly financial basis.

c.

Before electing to lay off the five employees, TAG-D should consider the long-run impact of the decision. Specifically, future page layout rates may grow faster than the cost of internal salaries, thus favoring the use of employees over the long term. This would especially be the case if the outside company provided a low bid in order to win the initial business. In addition, TAG-D may wish to consider non-economic factors, such as the ability to more directly control the quality and timing of the layout work by internal employees.

CHAPTER 23

Differential Analysis and Product Pricing

Ex. 23–12 (Concluded) c.

The price of Decaf Columbian would need to decrease from $11.60 to $11.20 per pound in order for the differential analysis to yield neither an advantage nor a disadvantage (indifference). This is determined as follows: Net Advantage of Further Processing Volume of Decaf Columbian

=

$2,850 7,125 lbs.

= $0.40 per lb.

The price of Decaf Columbian would need to be $0.40 lower, or $11.20, to yield no net differential profit or loss. This is verified by the following differential analysis: Differential Analysis Sell Regular (Alt. 1) or Process Further into Decaf (Alt. 2) December 11

b. The additional units can be sold for $13 each, and because unused capacity is available, the only costs that would be added if this additional production were accepted are the variable costs of $9 per unit. The differential revenue is therefore $13 per unit, and the differential cost is $9 per unit. Thus, the net profit is $4 per unit × 50,000 units, or $200,000. c. $9.01. Any selling price above $9 (variable costs per unit) will produce a positive contribution margin.

Ex. 23–14 Total costs……………………………………………………………………………… $ 522,000 Fixed costs……………………………………………………………………………… (150,000) Total variable costs…………………………………………………………………… $ 372,000 Variable cost per unit: $372,000 ÷ 40,000 batteries = $9.30 The lowest bid should be sufficient to cover the variable cost of $9.30 per unit.

CHAPTER 23

Differential Analysis and Product Pricing

Ex. 23–18 a.

The price will be set at the estimated market price required to remain competitive, or $27,000. Under the target cost concept, the market dictates the price, not the markup on cost.

b.

The required profit margin of 20% of the estimated $27,000 selling price implies a $21,600 target product cost as follows: Target Product Cost

= $27,000 – ($27,000 × 20%) = $27,000 – $5,400 = $21,600

Because the estimated manufacturing cost of $22,500 exceeds the target cost of $21,600, Toyota must reduce $900 from its total costs in order to maintain competitive pricing within its profit objectives. Note to Instructors: Target costing provides pressure to keep costs competitive. The method assumes that the company may not be able to successfully add a markup to its costs because the resulting price may be too high in the marketplace. For example, merely adding the 25% markup on the $22,500 product cost would result in an uncompetitive price of $28,125. The target cost concept moves backward by taking the selling price as given and then determining the cost that is required for a given profit objective.

Type 20:

Emphasize Type 10. In a production-constrained environment, Type 10 generates the most unit contribution margin per hour of furnace resource and, thus, is the most profitable. While Type 20 has the largest profit per unit ($4.40) and unit contribution margin ($6.00), these would not be the correct metrics for determining the product to emphasize in the marketing campaign, assuming the furnace is a bottleneck resource.

Note: Revenues and nonmanufacturing operating expenses are not affected by the decision to replace the old machine and, thus, are not included in the analysis. If they were included, both alternatives would include them, causing the differential effect on income to net to zero for both items. Depreciation is ignored because it is a sunk cost for the old machine and is incorporated in the purchase price for the new machine. Gutenberg Publishers should replace the old machine with the new machine. 2. Other factors to be considered include: a. Are there any improvements in the quality of work turned out by the new machine? b. What effect does the federal income tax have on the decision? c. What opportunities are available for the use of the $120,000 of funds ($160,000 less $40,000 proceeds from the old machine) that are required to purchase the new machine? After considering such factors as those listed above, the net cost reduction anticipated over the six-year period may not be sufficient to justify the replacement. For example, if there is an opportunity to invest the $120,000 ($160,000 – $40,000) of additional funds required for the replacement in a project that earns a return of 5% (assumed for illustration), the amount of the return over the six-year period would be $36,000 ($120,000 × 5% × 6), which is more advantageous than the replacement, other factors being equal.

The sales manager erroneously considered the full unit costs instead of the differential (additional) revenue and differential (additional) costs. An analysis similar to that presented in part (1) would lead to the selection of perfume for the promotional campaign because this alternative will contribute $45,000 ($520,000 – $475,000) more to operating income than would be contributed by promoting moisturizer.

The contribution margin per unit may give false signals when an organization has production bottlenecks. Instead, Hercules should use the contribution margin per bottleneck hour to determine relative product profitability, as follows:

Contribution margin per unit……………………… Furnace (bottleneck) hours per unit…………… Contribution margin per furnace hour…………

The Good Grade steel has the largest contribution margin per unit ($21); however, the Regular Grade has the largest contribution margin per furnace hour ($8). Thus, using production bottleneck analysis indicates that the Regular Grade is actually more profitable at an $8.00 contribution margin per furnace hour than High Grade’s $2.50 or Good Grade’s $7.00 contribution margin per furnace hour. Therefore, the company would want to sell product in the following preference order: 1. Regular Grade 2. Good Grade 3. High Grade

The differential analysis indicates that the discount plan will result in a lower contribution margin per weekend than the existing pricing plan. It is possible that other discount pricing assumptions may provide a more favorable outcome, depending on the sensitivity of demand to changes in discount prices. For example, any discount price greater than $121.20 would favor the discount price plan if the occupancy remained at 50%.

The discount pricing may become known. Thus, other industrial customers may request a similar pricing opportunity. This may cause industrial demand to shift from peak hours to off-peak hours. If the shifted peak hour demand could not be replaced by new incremental demand, the overall profits of the power company would decline. This is because the $0.15 per kilowatt price would be replaced by the discounted price as customers shifted to off-peak periods. Valley Power would likely want to establish a discount price significantly higher than variable cost in order to provide a significant contribution to fixed costs. In the long-term, the overall revenues of the business must cover the fixed costs.

As a result, the airline product has a larger contribution margin, but it also has a larger fixed cost to cover. This creates larger operating leverage (and risk) than exists for the other two products.

TIF 23–3 Memo To:

Juanita Jackson

From: Les Miles Re:

New Product Pricing

Thank you again for taking the time to meet with me and discuss the pricing of our new computer. While I understand your desire to set an appropriate price for this new product, it would be inappropriate not to include fixed costs in the pricing decision. Ignoring fixed costs would be the equivalent of treating the new computer as an incremental decision, which is not the case. The new computer was designed and developed to be part of the company’s core product portfolio. As a result, the revenues from the sale of this product must contribute to covering fixed costs. If the sales price does not cover fixed costs and provide a profit, then the company will not be competitive in the long term. Target costing provides a potential solution to the pricing issue. This approach treats the market price as given and adjusts the cost in order to yield the required profitability. Target costing is particularly effective in highly competitive product markets where declining prices require cost reduction in order to compete. Under target costing, the company would begin with the price the market is willing to pay, which is $1,250. This price should then be reduced by the required profit markup. This would yield a target cost of $1,000 ($1,250 ÷ 1.25), which is $200 lower than the current product cost. The new target cost would then be established as a cost-reduction target. Our focus should then be on improving product design and processes in order to reduce the product cost to $1,000. This will allow the company to develop a competitive price and cost structure for the new computer.

TIF 23–4 The contribution margin is $4 ($22 – $18) per dozen on the special order. Thus, Varden’s manager can contribute to fixed costs by accepting the order. However, there are some additional considerations the manager must consider before accepting this order. 1. Have we ever done business overseas? Exports require additional administrative activities. Have these additional administrative costs been considered in the differential analysis? 2. Will the customer sell the golf balls overseas, or will they relabel the golf balls and have them imported back into the United States? Such a situation would cause Varden to be competing against itself. 3. Is it likely that other customers will learn of the “special deal” the overseas company received and demand equal treatment? That is, is there a risk that we’ll spoil the pricing structure in the domestic market? 4. Will the overseas customer want to do business in the future, or is this just a single sale? If the overseas customer is expected to purchase more golf balls in the future, then it is likely that the customer will come to expect the $22 price in the future. 5. Is there a possibility of another customer being willing to purchase the golf balls at the $35 price? If so, Varden may not want to commit capacity to the overseas customer. Once the capacity is committed, it will be difficult to sell to anyone else. 6. Will we help the overseas customer establish a presence in the overseas golf ball market where we may want to compete in the future?

Differential Analysis and Product Pricing

TIF 23–5 First, Marriott has excess capacity for this day, so it should be willing to accept additional customers. The Priceline.com customer generates incremental revenue that will not reduce other business. Given this, however, the price must at least cover variable cost; otherwise, Marriott will incur a loss. The variable cost per room night is as follows: Housekeeping labor cost………………………………………………………………… Cost of room supplies (soap, paper, etc.)……………………………………………… Laundry labor and material cost………………………………………………………… Utility cost (mostly air conditioning)…………………………………………………… Total variable cost per day per room……………………………………………………

$38 8 10 5 $61

These costs are mostly avoidable or are variable to room nights. This answer assumes that the maid and laundry staff hours are highly flexible and can be staffed to demand. Likewise, the air conditioning and lights can be turned off if the room is not rented for the night, saving most of the utility cost. The desk staff and hotel depreciation are either sunk (depreciation) or mostly fixed to the number of room nights. Therefore, they are not relevant to accepting this business. The total variable costs are $61 per night, so the $85 customer bid should be accepted. Note to Instructors: There could be some discussion about the degree to which some of these costs are fully variable. For example, it’s likely that some utility cost must be incurred for the room, whether it is occupied or not. Likewise, the housekeeping and laundry staff hours may not be as flexible to demand as assumed here. There should be very little question about the room supplies (full variable) or the hotel depreciation (sunk). Regardless of the assumptions, the decision would remain the same. TIF 23–6 The product profitability report indicates that the two products are equal in terms of profitability (on a per-case basis). However, the additional information indicates that there will be more activities required for Jamaican Punch than for King Kola. Apparently, the factory overhead costs are being allocated on the basis of a single activity base that does not capture these product differences. Because the direct labor costs are equal for producing a case of each product, the factory overhead allocated to each case would also be the same under the single factory overhead rate method. Thus, they would appear to have similar cost and profitability. An activity-based costing approach would likely demonstrate that the Jamaican Punch is less profitable and the King Kola is more profitable than indicated by the single plantwide factory overhead rate method. In addition, activity-based costing information would guide management in more accurate pricing decisions based on markup on product cost.

TIF 23–7 1. Make or Buy This visualization compares the costs associated with making or buying each respective component. Each bar represents the cost to make the component, while the reference line represents the cost to buy. The cost to buy is calculated using the cost to purchase the component and the fixed overhead cost associated with the component.

2. Another important data point that could improve the quality of data for use in management’s decision would be any costs or additional incomes that would arise because production capacity among these components is freed up. For example, if by forgoing the production of the assembled radar motherboard, Coley Avionics could sell 50 more radar units each month, this income would increase the incentive to buy this product as opposing to making it. 23-51 © 2024 Cengage®.

CHAPTER 24 CAPITAL INVESTMENT ANALYSIS DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1.

The principal objections to the use of the average rate of return method are its failure to consider the expected cash flows from the proposals and the timing of these flows.

2.

The principal limitations of the cash payback method are its failure to consider cash flows occurring after the payback period and its failure to use present value concepts.

3.

The average rate of return is not based on cash flows, but on operating income. Thus, for example, the average rate of return will include the average annual income after deducting depreciation, but the internal rate of return will not. In addition, the internal rate of return approach will use time value of money concepts, while the average rate of return does not.

4.

A one-year payback will not equal a 100% average rate of return because the payback period is based on cash flows, while the average rate of return is based on income. The depreciation on the project will prevent the two methods from reconciling.

5.

The cash payback period ignores cash flows occurring after the payback period, which will often include large residual values.

6.

The majority of the cash flows of a new motion picture are earned within two years of release. Thus, the time value of money aspect of the cash flows is less significant for motion pictures than for projects with time-extended cash flows. This would favor the use of a cash payback period for evaluating the cash flows of the project.

7.

The $7,900 net present value indicates that the proposal is desirable because the proposal is expected to recover the investment and provide more than the minimum rate of return.

8.

The net present values indicate that both projects are desirable, but not necessarily equal in desirability. The present value index can be used to compare the two projects. For example, assume one project required an investment of $10,000 and the other an investment of $100,000. The present value indexes would be calculated as 0.9 and 0.09, respectively, for the two projects. That is, a $9,000 net present value on a $10,000 investment would be more desirable than the same net present value on a $100,000 investment.

9.

The computations for the net present value method are more complex than those for the methods that ignore present value. Also, the method assumes that the cash received from the proposal during its useful life will be reinvested at the rate of return used to compute the present value of the proposal. This assumption may not always be reasonable.

10.

The computations for the internal rate of return method are more complex than those for the methods that ignore present value. Also, the method assumes that the cash received from the proposal during its useful life will be reinvested at the internal rate of return. This assumption may not always be reasonable.

11.

The major advantages of leasing are that it avoids the need to use funds to purchase assets and reduces some of the risk of loss if the asset becomes obsolete. There may also be some income tax advantages to leasing.

12.

Quicker delivery of products, higher production quality, and greater manufacturing flexibility are examples of qualitative factors that should be considered.

Ex. 24–6 a.

The Liquid Soap product line is recommended, based on its shorter cash payback period. The cash payback period for both products can be determined using the following schedule: Initial investment: $750,000

Year 1………………………… Year 2………………………… Year 3………………………… Year 4………………………… Year 5………………………… Year 6…………………………

Liquid Soap Cumulative Net Cash Net Cash Flow Flows

$125,000 250,000 375,000 500,000 625,000 750,000

Liquid Soap has a five-year cash payback period, and Body Lotion has a sixyear cash payback. b.

The cash payback periods are different between the two product lines because Liquid Soap earns cash faster than does Body Lotion. Even though both products earn the same total net cash flow over the eight-year planning horizon, Liquid Soap returns cash faster in the earlier years. The cash payback method emphasizes the initial years’ net cash flows in determining the cash payback period. Thus, the project with the greatest net cash flows in the early years of the project life will be favored over the one with less net cash flows in the initial years.

d.

3.791 [(90 × Hrs.) – (45 × Hrs.) – $7,500] = $125,000 3.791 [(45 × Hrs.) – $7,500] = $125,000 (45 × Hrs.) – $7,500 = $125,000 ÷ 3.791 (45 × Hrs.) – $7,500 = $32,973 45 × Hrs. = $32,973 + $7,500 45 × Hrs. = $40,473 Hrs. = $40,473 ÷ 45 Hrs. = 899* * Rounded

Thus, the bulldozer operating hours must exceed 899 annually in order for the investment to be justified.

Sewing machine:

$361,832 $260,000

= 1.39

Packing machine:

$131,918 $85,000

= 1.55

The present value index indicates that the packing machine would be the preferred investment, assuming that all other qualitative considerations are equal. Note that the net present value of the sewing machine is greater than the packing machine’s. However, the sewing machine requires more than triple the investment than the packing machine ($260,000 vs. $85,000), for barely double the extra net present value ($101,832 vs. $46,918). Thus, the present value index indicates the packing machine is favored. If there were sufficient capital for both investments, then they would both be attractive opportunities. This solution does not consider the alternative use of remaining cash, which is an additional complexity beyond the scope of this text.

b. Net present value: Present value factor for an annuity of $1, 10 periods at 10%: 6.145 Net present value = (6.145 × $250,000) – $1,125,000 = $411,250 c. Some critical elements that are missing from this analysis are: ● The manager is viewing the acquisition of automated assembly equipment as a labor-saving device. This is probably a limited way to view the investment. Instead, the equipment should allow the company to assemble the product with higher quality and higher flexibility. This should translate into greater sales volume, better pricing, and lower inventories. All of these could be brought into the analysis. ●

The cost of the automated assembly equipment does not stop with the initial purchase price and installation costs. The equipment will require the company to hire engineers and support personnel to keep the machines running, to program the software, and to debug new programs. The operators will require new training. Thus, extensive training costs will likely be incurred. It would not be surprising to see a large portion of the direct labor savings lost by hiring expensive indirect labor support for the technology.

There will likely be a start-up or learning curve with this new technology that will cause the benefits to be delayed.

The analysis fails to account for taxes.

4.192 is the present value of an annuity factor for 10 years at 20% from Exhibit 5; thus, the internal rate of return on the cash flows for 10 years is 20%. b.

There are many uncertainties that could adversely impact a project of this scale and scope. There are uncertainties affecting the initial investment and the annual cash flow assumptions. Regarding the initial investment, the construction cost could be higher than $415 million, due to delays, labor issues, and other construction site problems. The annual cash flow assumptions could be adversely impacted by uncertainties such as: 1. Warm weather conditions, or no snow 2. Recessionary economic conditions that reduce the demand for ski holidays 3. Competitor property improvements that siphon demand from the project 4. Increased fuel costs that increase the cost of travel to ski resorts, thus reducing demand from nonlocal patrons 5. Industry overbuilding that causes a price war to maintain volume

To: Re:

Management Investment Recommendation

An internal rate of return analysis was performed for the delivery truck and bagging machine investments. The internal rate of return for the bagging machine is 12%, while the delivery truck is 15% (detailed analysis available). The bagging machine fails to exceed our minimum rate of return requirement of 13%. In addition, there do not appear to be any qualitative considerations that would favor the bagging machine. Therefore, the recommendation is to invest in the delivery truck.

Amount to Be Invested Annual Net Cash Flow $186,725 $35,000 5.335

Internal Rate of Return = 10% (from text Exhibit 5, 8 periods)

Ex. 24–20 With an expected useful life of five years, the cash payback period cannot be greater than five years. This would indicate that the cost of the initial investment would not be recovered during the useful life of the asset. In addition, there would be no positive average rate of return because a net loss would result. If the 20% average rate of return and useful life are correct, the cash payback period must be less than five years. Alternatively, if both the 20% average rate of return and 5.5 years for the cash payback period are correct, the machinery must have a useful life of much more than five years.

The net present value of both proposals is positive; thus, both pieces of equipment are acceptable. However, the net present value of the hydraulic excavator exceeds that of the diamond core drill. Thus, the hydraulic excavator should be preferred if there is enough investment money for only one of the projects. Note to Instructors: Because the investment amount is the same, the net present value can be compared to determine preference. That is, the present value index will show the same preference ordering.

Both projects offer the same average annual rate of return.

b.

Although both projects exceed the selected rate established for discounted cash flows, the robotic assembler offers a larger net present value. The robotic assembler has a larger net present value because larger cash flows occur earlier in time compared to the warehouse. Thus, if only one of the two projects can be accepted, the robotic assembler would be the more attractive.

Prob. 24–4A (Concluded) 3.

The net present value, present value index, and internal rate of return all indicate that the biofuel equipment is a better financial opportunity compared to the wind turbines, although both investments meet the minimum return criterion of 6%. The present value index indicates that the biofuel equipment has a greater present value per dollar of investment. The internal rate of return method places all proposals on a common basis. As a result, it is possible to compare proposals with different investment amounts, cash flows, and time periods, using the internal rate of return method. The internal rate of return method indicates that the biofuel equipment internal rate of return of 12% is greater than the wind turbine internal rate of return of 10%.

To: Investment Committee Both projects have a positive net present value. This means that both projects meet our minimum expected return of 12% and would be acceptable investments. However, if funds are limited and only one of the two projects can be funded, then the two projects must be compared over equal lives. Thus, the residual value of the office expansion at the end of period 4 is used to equalize the two lives. The net present value of the two projects over equal lives indicates that the server upgrade has a higher net present value and would be a superior investment.

The analyses indicate that although Proposal D has the larger net present value, it is not as attractive as Proposal C in terms of the amount of present value per dollar invested. Also, Proposal D requires a much larger investment. Thus, management should use investment resources for Proposal C before investing in Proposal D, absent any other qualitative considerations that may impact the decision.

* This amount differs from the net present value calculation in part (1) due to rounding of present value factors.

3. To: Investment Committee Both Wichita and Topeka have a positive net present value. This means that both projects meet our minimum expected return of 20% and would be acceptable investments. However, if funds are limited and only one of the two projects can be funded, then the two projects must be compared over equal lives. Thus, the residual value of Wichita at the end of period 4 is used to equalize the two lives. The net present value of the two projects over equal lives indicates that Witchita has a higher net present value and would be a superior investment.

e.

Using a desired rate of return of 12%, the net present values are positive for annual net cash flows of $600,000 and $800,000, which justifies investing in the equipment. However, if the annual net cash flows drop to $400,000, the net present value is a negative $675,600. With a desired rate of return of 12%, annual net cash flows need to be more than $519,575 to generate a positive net present value. Using a desired rate of return of 15% lowers the net present values, which are still positive for annual net cash flows of $600,000 and $800,000. However, the lower net present values at a 15% desired rate of return make investing in the equipment less attractive.

CHAPTER 24

Capital Investment Analysis

TAKE IT FURTHER TIF 24–1 The plant manager wants a project to be accepted and places pressure on the analyst to come up with the “right numbers.” Jerrod is right when he states that the net present value analysis has many assumptions and room for interpretation. Many use this room for interpretation to work the numbers until they satisfy the minimum return (hurdle) rate. In fact, some analysts state that they start with the hurdle rate and work back into the numbers. Clearly, this is not what should be expected of Danielle. Danielle made an honest effort to discuss the assumptions. Danielle’s last statement was an open attempt to begin a conversation around assumptions. This is legitimate. Notice that Jerrod jumped on that opening and dictated a course of action. Instead of discussing assumptions, Jerrod stated what the assumptions are to be and how they are to be reflected in the analysis. This is no more than “cooking” the analysis. Danielle needs to respond strongly to this attempt by Jerrod to circumvent the process by countering his argument. For example, Danielle might point out that it is by no means clear that more storage space translates into more sales. In fact, it is probably just the opposite. More storage space means that more product waits a long time before being shipped to the customer. This means that the customer is guaranteed to receive dated product that may be inferior to product that has been recently produced. More warehouse space is counter to a just-in-time orientation. Danielle is really trying to prevent the plant manager from going down the wrong path. Jerrod needs to work on his systems so that he doesn’t need the warehouse space. This very difficult issue revolves around the nature of ethical dilemmas. Danielle has brief tenure with the organization. She has very little organizational clout and could easily find her career short-circuited by crossing Jerrod. It might be tempting for Danielle to slide on this one—after all, who would know? If the project is eventually a failure, it’s unlikely that the decision would come back to haunt Danielle. Much time will have passed, and Danielle will likely be in another job in the company. The decision to confront Jerrod has immediate repercussions. This is the heart of real-world ethical dilemmas. The dilemma occurs when the ethical decision has grave short-term consequences (Jerrod short-circuits Danielle’s career) and few seemingly long-term rewards (no one sees the ethical decision), while the unethical decision looks appealing in the short term (Jerrod is my friend) and potentially safe in the long term (who’s going to find out?). The ethical management accountant will recognize these pressures and make the difficult decisions in order to build a strong reputation that can be a very powerful asset later in one’s career. The key is to recognize that trading off short-term gain for one’s long-term reputation can be very harmful. Thus, enlightened self-interest indicates that the ethical course of action to rebuff Jerrod is rational and correct.

TIF 24–2 This activity could be assigned individually or in groups. This activity has the student(s) perform a capital investment analysis for a desktop computer, using information available to them on the Internet and from a local business. The actual answer depends on the actual numbers determined by the student(s). Have a number of students (or groups) provide their answers to the class and note the variation (or lack thereof) between the various analyses. Use this to show that there are often many answers to even simple problems, depending on the assumptions (e.g., what is considered a “mid-range” computer) and underlying data (e.g., rental rate). Below is a sample answer based on our hypothetical data and assumptions: Assumed hourly rental rate………………………………………………… $8 per hour Semester cost (40 hours × $8)…………………………………………… $320 Present value of $320 for 6 semiannual periods at 5% ($320 × 5.07569)…………………………………………………………… $ 1,624 (1,200) Assumed price of a mid-range computer………………………………… $ 424 Net present value…………………………………………………………… The computer should be purchased.

Tom Greene

From:

Ima Student

Re:

Effect of exchange rate changes on internal rate of return

I have reviewed the impact of possible exchange rate changes on the company’s internal rate of return and determined that the impact will be significantly different depending on where the product is ultimately sold. If the product is sold locally, it is likely that the internal rate of return on the new plant will decline because all net cash flows are incurred in the local economy. This is because the cash profits earned on the plant will be less in U.S. dollars as a result of the devaluation. For example, if the product sold for a profit of 10 units of local currency, it would need to double to 20 units of local currency in order to generate the same amount of U.S. dollar profit. This could be done with a large price increase. However, such a price increase would probably significantly reduce demand. If the price stayed the same, then the number of U.S. dollars earned in profit would be halved. If, however, the plant produced for export only, then the expenses would be incurred in local currency, while the revenues would be earned in U.S. dollars. This could work in favor of the project because the expenses in U.S. dollar terms would decline. For example, if the local wages were 16 units of local currency per hour, then after the devaluation, these 16 units would cost half as much in U.S. dollar terms. Because the product is sold in the United States, the currency exchange rate would have no impact on revenues. The net result is that the cash flows in U.S. dollar terms would potentially increase, increasing the internal rate of return.

CHAPTER 24

Capital Investment Analysis

TIF 24–5 In all three companies, the executives indicate that financial investment analysis plays a minor role in the selection of projects. The reason is that all three companies deal with products that have highly uncertain future cash flows. Thus, any attempt at a financial investment analysis could be highly suspect. Instead, these managers rely on strategic considerations. These considerations include responding to competitors, developing new markets and products for customers, and improving quality. The executives indicate that business judgment is more important for these strategic, longer-term decisions than is financial investment analysis. This suggests that financial investment analysis is better suited for investments that have more predictable cash flows with possible short duration.

CHAPTER 24

Capital Investment Analysis

CERTIFIED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT (CMA®) EXAMINATION QUESTIONS (ADAPTED) 1.

c. Using trial and error, an internal rate of return of 14% equates Foster’s cash flows to the initial investment as follows: ($6,000 × 0.87719) + ($6,000 × 0.76947) + ($8,000 × 0.67497) + ($8,000 × 0.59208) = $20,016.36 Initial cash outflow of $20,000 ≈ $20,016.36 Note: The optimal trial-and-error strategy is to start with the two closest rates of returns of 12% and 14%. A return of 12% yields a present value of $20,918.70 [($6,000 × 0.89286) + ($6,000 × 0.79719) + ($8,000 × 0.71178) + ($8,000 × 0.63552)]. Thus, 14% is the next logical choice.

2.

a. Since the projects are mutually exclusive, Staten should accept Project X (higher net present value) and reject Project Y. Net present value Project X = ($47,000 × 3.79079) – $150,000 = $28,167.13 Net present value Project Y = ($280,000 × 0.62092) – $150,000 = $23,857.60
