Chapter 1 - Introduction to Accounting and Business Subjective Short Answer 168. Discuss internal and external users of accounting information. What areas of accounting provide them with information? Give an example of the type of report each type of user might use. ANSWER: Internal users of accounting information include managers and employees. The area of accounting that provides internal users with information is called managerial accounting or management accounting. An example of a report that might be used internally is a customer profitability report. External users of accounting information include customers, creditors, banks, and government entities. These users are not directly involved in managing or operating the business. The area of accounting that provides external users with information is called financial accounting. General-purpose financial statements are one type of financial accounting report that is distributed to external users.

Companies like Enron, WorldCom, and Tyco International, Ltd. have been caught in the midst of ethical lapses that led to fines, firings, and criminal and/or civil prosecution. List and briefly describe three factors that are responsible for what went wrong in these companies. ANSWER: The three factors are: (1) individual character, (2) firm culture, and (3) lack of laws and enforcement. Honesty, integrity, and fairness in the face of pressure to hide the truth are important characteristics of an ethical businessperson. The behavior and attitude of senior management set the firm’s culture. In firms like Enron, senior managers created a culture of greed and indifference to the truth. That culture flowed down to lower-level managers, who took shortcuts and lied to cover financial frauds. The lack of laws and enforcement has been blamed as a contributing factor to financial reporting abuses. As a result, new laws such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) established a new oversight body for the accounting profession, known as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), and established standards to enhance corporate accountability, financial disclosures, and independence.

Bob purchased a personal automobile for $10,000 cash plus he took out a loan for $20,000 in his name. Describe how this transaction is related to the business entity concept. ANSWER: Under the business entity concept, economic data are limited to the direct activities of the business. The business is viewed as separate from its owner. Therefore, when Bob buys a personal automobile, it is not listed on the books of Johnson’s Carpet Cleaning Service, unless Bob invests it in the business.

Miscellaneous expense is incorrectly listed after utilities expense on the income statement. Miscellaneous expense should be listed as the last expense, regardless of the amount. The operating expenses are incorrectly added. Instead of $28,000, the total should be $32,660. Because operating expenses are incorrectly added, the net income is incorrect. It should be listed as $9,340. The statement of owner's equity should be for a period of time instead of a specific date. That is, the statement of owner's equity should be reported "For the Three Months Ended March 31." Because the net income was incorrect, the increase in owners' equity and the balance in Eric Wood, Capital are incorrect. They should both be shown as $24,340. The name of the company is missing from the balance sheet heading.

Chapter 1 - Introduction to Accounting and Business 235. Company G has a ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity of 0.12 and 0.28 for Year 1 and Year 2, respectively. In contrast, Company M has a ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity of 1.13 and 1.29 for the same period. REQUIRED: Based on this information, which company's creditors are more at risk and why? Should the creditors of either company fear the risk of nonpayment? ANSWER: Company M’s creditors are more at risk than are Company G’s creditors. The lower the ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity, the better able the company is to withstand poor business conditions and pay its obligations to creditors. Without additional information, it appears that the creditors of either company are well protected against the risk of nonpayment, because the ratios are relatively low for both. However, the fact that both ratios are increasing over the period should be monitored for downturns in business conditions.

Required Prepare a horizontal analysis of Nebraska Technologies' income statements. Comment on the trends, both favorable and unfavorable. ANSWER: Increase/Decrease Percent Year 2 Year 1 Amount Change Sales $158,400 $162,500 $ (4,100) (2.5)% Wages expense $ 80,000 $ 92,500 $(12,500) (13.5) Rent expense 28,000 30,000 (2,000) (6.7) Utilities expense 30,000 25,000 5,000 20.0 Total operating expenses $138,000 $147,500 $ (9,500) (6.4) $ 20,400 $ 15,000 $ 5,400 36.0 Net income The trend in sales revenue is unfavorable, but that is more than offset by the declines in operating expenses, with the exception of utilities, which increased over the period. Despite the 2.5% drop in sales, the net effect was a favorable increase in net income of 36.0%, which was in large part spurred by the drop in wages expense. DIFFICULTY:

Under the accrual basis, some accounts in the ledger require updating at the end of the period. Discuss the three main reasons for this updating and give an example of each. ANSWER: 1. Some expenses are not recorded daily. For example, the daily use of supplies would require many entries with small amounts. Also, the amount of supplies on hand on a day-to-day basis is normally not needed. 2. Some revenues and expenses are incurred as time passes rather than as separate transactions. For example, rent received in advance (unearned rent) expires and becomes revenue with the passage of time. Likewise, prepaid insurance expires and becomes an expense with the passage of time. 3. Some revenues and expenses may be unrecorded at the end of the accounting period. For example, a company may have provided services to customers that it has not billed or recorded at the end of the accounting period. Likewise, a company may not pay its employees until the next accounting period even though the employees have earned their wages in the current period. DIFFICULTY:

173. Accounts Receivable 325 Fees Earned 325 Customer billed for services performed. ANSWER: a Subjective Short Answer 174. You evaluate loan requests as part of your job at Eastwood National Bank. One loan request you received is from Surfer Dude Supplies, a small proprietorship. Richard Tracy, the owner, is requesting $105,000 and brings you a trial balance (or statement of accounts) for his first year of operations ended December 31. Required While you are willing to work with Richard, how would you explain to him that a complete set of financial statements from his accountant would be more useful for evaluating the loan request? ANSWER: 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 the owner’s interest in the company for a period. Each of these statements is useful in evaluating whether to extend credit to the company.

ANSWER:
The following adjustments might be necessary before an accurate set of financial statements can be prepared: ∙ No office supplies expense is shown. The office supplies account should be adjusted for the supplies used during the year. ∙ No depreciation expense is shown for the trucks or equipment. 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 any unearned revenue exists at the end of the year. ∙ An inquiry should be made as to whether the owner withdrew any funds from the company during the year.

Chapter 4 - Completing the Accounting Cycle 215. Explain how net income or loss is determined by using the end-of-period spreadsheets. ANSWER: The difference between the debits and credits of the Income Statement columns is compared to the difference between the debits and credits of the Balance Sheet columns. They should be the same amounts but opposite from each other. If the debits are more than the credits in the Income Statement columns, signifying a net loss, then the credits should be higher than the debits in the Balance Sheet columns by the same amount.

Chapter 5 - Accounting Systems 161. Define and describe an accounting system. ANSWER: An accounting system is the methods and procedures for collecting, classifying, summarizing, and reporting a business’s financial and operating information. Accounting systems for large companies often record more than just basic transaction data (i.e. aircraft maintenance for an airline). These systems evolve through the process of (1) analysis of information needs, (2) system design, and (3) implementation of the design. Input from users is used to analyze and improve the system.

163. Discuss the process of posting from a revenue journal to the subsidiary ledger and to the general ledger. ANSWER: Each transaction is posted individually to customer accounts in the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger. This should be done on a regular basis to keep customer balances current. To provide a trail of the entries posted to the subsidiary and general ledgers, the source of the entries is indicated in the Posting Reference column by inserting the letter R for revenue journal and the page number of the revenue journal. A check mark is inserted in the Posting Reference column to indicate that the transaction has been posted to the subsidiary ledger. At the end of the month, the column total is posted to the general ledger as a debit to Accounts Receivable and a credit to Fees Earned. This total is equal to the sum of the month’s debits to the individual accounts in the subsidiary ledger.

Electronic invoice form 4. Month-end postings to the general ledger ANSWER: Special journals and accounts receivable control accounts are generally not used in computerized systems. Instead, electronic forms like electronic invoice forms are used to record original transactions. Since the computer automatically posts transactions from electronic forms to the general ledger and individual accounts at the time the transactions are recorded, month-end postings are not necessary in a computerized system. © 2018 Cengage.

Chapter 6 - Accounting for Merchandising Businesses Subjective Short Answer 183. Discuss the following statement: “Operating cycles for all merchandising businesses are the same, with similar profit margins.” Include an example(s) to illustrate your explanation. ANSWER: This is not true. While the operations of merchandising businesses generally all involve the purchase of merchandise (purchasing), the sale of products to customers (sales), and the receipt of cash from customers (collection), operating cycles may vary in length between merchandisers. This is due to the nature of the product they sell. An example is a grocery store that depends on selling more products in a very short time span.

Describe three inventory cost flow assumptions and how they impact the financial statements. ANSWER: 1. Cost flow is in the order in which costs were incurred or first-in, first-out (FIFO). The first units purchased are assumed sold, so the oldest costs flow to the income statement and the cost of the newest purchases are on the balance sheet. 2. Cost flow is in the reverse order in which costs were incurred or last-in, first-out (LIFO). The last units purchased are assumed sold, so the newest costs flow to the income statement and the cost of the oldest purchases are on the balance sheet. 3. Cost flow is an average of the costs.

Calculate total sales, cost of merchandise sold, gross profit, and ending inventory using each of the following inventory methods: 1. FIFO perpetual 2. FIFO periodic 3. LIFO perpetual 4. LIFO periodic 5. Average cost periodic (round average to nearest cent) ANSWER: Total sales (not dependent on inventory method): May 6 400 @ $38.00 = $15,200.00 13 450 @ $37.50 = 16,875.00 22 275 @ $36.00 = 9,900.00 27 300 @ $37.00 = 11,100.00 30 100 @ $39.00 = 3,900.00 Total sales 1,525 units $56,975.00 Total merchandise available for sale: May 1 500 @ $25.00 = $12,500.00 4 300 @ $24.00 = 7,200.00 8 700 @ $23.00 = 16,100.00 20 250 @ $25.25 = 6,312.50 28 550 @ $26.00 = 14,300.00 Total 2,300 units $56,412.50 1. and 2.

Chapter 7 - Inventories 196. a. Explain the effect of the following on the financial statements: Goods held on consignment were included in the ending inventory count. Goods purchased FOB shipping point were in transit on the last day of the year. These goods were not counted as part of ending inventory. Goods sold FOB shipping point were in transit on the last day of the year. These goods were not counted as part of ending inventory. b. What happens if inventory errors are not found and corrected? ANSWER: a. Goods held on consignment were included in the ending inventory count: Goods held on consignment should not be included in the consignee’s ending inventory. By including these goods, ending inventory, gross profit and net income are overstated and cost of merchandise sold is understated. On the balance sheet, inventory, current assets, total assets, and owner's equity are all overstated. Goods purchased FOB shipping point were in transit on the last day of the year. These goods were not counted as part of ending inventory: Goods purchased FOB shipping point become part of inventory when they are shipped to the purchaser. Thus, these goods should have been included in ending inventory even though they were not yet received. By excluding these goods, ending inventory, gross profit, and net income are understated and cost of merchandise sold is overstated. On the balance sheet, inventory, current assets, total assets, and owner's equity are all understated. Goods sold FOB shipping point were in transit on the last day of the year. These goods were not counted as part of ending inventory: When goods are sold FOB shipping point, title transfers when they are shipped to the purchaser. As such, they should not have been included in ending inventory so this transaction has no error effect on the financial statements. b. The income statement and balance sheet will have errors in the current year. Inventory errors reverse themselves within two years. If the errors are not discovered, the income statement and balance sheet will be correct at the end of the next year.

Chapter 7 - Inventories You would expect Big Bang’s inventory turnover to be lower. Big Bang’s business is seasonal in nature, with most of its revenue generated during the major holidays. Much of its nonholiday inventory will most likely turn over very slowly. Orange, on the other hand, turns its inventory over very quickly. A computer manufacturer maintains a low inventory, which allows it to respond quickly to customer needs. Additionally, computer products can quickly become obsolete, so Orange cannot risk building large inventories. For these same reasons, Big Bang’s days' sales in inventory is expected to be higher than Orange’s.

Chapter 10 - Long-Term Assets: Fixed and Intangible 217. The following information was taken from a recent annual report of Harrison Company (in millions): Current Year Preceding Year Land and buildings $726 $361 Machinery, equipment, and internal-use software 595 470 Office furniture and equipment 94 81 Other fixed assets related to leases 760 569 Accumulated depreciation and amortization 894 644 Required (a) Compute the book value of the fixed assets for the current year and the preceding year and explain the differences, if any. (b)
Would you normally expect the book value of fixed assets to increase or decrease during the year? ANSWER: (a) Property, plant, and equipment (in millions): CurrentPreceding Year Year Land and buildings Machinery, equipment, and internal-use software Office furniture and equipment Other fixed assets related to leases Less accumulated depreciation Book value
$ 726 595 94 760 $2,175 894 $1,281
$ 361 470 81 569 $1,481 644 $ 837
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 Harrison purchased $694 million ($2,175 – $1,481) of additional fixed assets, which was offset by the additional depreciation expense of $250 million ($894 – $644) taken during the current year. (b) The book value of fixed assets should normally increase during the year. Although additional depreciation expense will reduce the book value, most companies invest in new assets in an amount that is at least equal to the depreciation expense. However, during periods of economic downturn, companies purchase fewer fixed assets, and the book value of their fixed assets may decline.

195. Several months ago, Jones Company experienced a spill of hazardous materials into the White River from one of its plants. As a result, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) fined the company $405,000. The company contested the fine. In addition, an employee is seeking $180,000 damages related to the spill. Finally, a homeowner has sued the company for $260,000. Although the homeowner lives 30 miles downstream from the plant, he believes that the spill has reduced his home’s resale value by $260,000. Jones’ legal counsel believes the following will happen in relationship to these incidents: (a) (b) (c) (d) (1)
(2)
It is probable that the EPA fine will stand. An out-of-court settlement for $165,000 has recently been reached with the employee, with the final papers to be signed next week. Counsel believes that the homeowner’s case is weak and will be decided in favor of Jones Company. Other litigation related to the spill is possible, but the damage amounts are uncertain. Based on this information, journalize the contingent liabilities associated with the spill. Use the account “Damage Awards and Fines” to recognize the expense for the period. Prepare any note disclosure related to the spill.

Several months ago, Maximilien Company experienced a spill of radioactive materials into the Missouri River from one of its plants. As a result, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) fined the company $1,750,000. The company contested the fine. In addition, an employee is seeking $975,000 damages related to the spill. Finally, a homeowner has sued the company for $580,000. Although the homeowner lives 15 miles downstream from the plant, he believes that the spill has reduced his home’s resale value by $580,000. Maximilien's legal counsel believes the following will happen in relationship to these incidents: (a) It is probable that the EPA fine will stand. (b) An out-of-court settlement for $650,000 has recently been reached with the employee, with the final papers to be signed next week. (c) Counsel believes that the homeowner’s case is weak and will be decided in favor of Maximilien Company. (d) Other litigation related to the spill is possible, but the damage amounts are uncertain.

Chapter 11 - Current Liabilities and Payroll 198. The current assets and current liabilities for Kolbie Company and Newton Company are as follows: Kolbie Company (in millions) For the Year Ending December 31 Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents Short-term investments Accounts receivable Inventories Other current assets* Total current assets Current liabilities: Accounts payable Accrued and other current liabilities Total current liabilities
Newton Company (in millions) For the Year Ending December 31
$ 8,352 6,034 3,029 446 2,195 $20,056
$ 8,546 752 5,152 660 2,829 $17,939
$4,970 3,329 $8,299
$10,430 6,361 $16,791
*These represent prepaid expenses and other non-quick current assets. (a) Determine the quick ratio for both companies. Round to two decimal places. (b) Interpret the quick ratio difference between the two companies. ANSWER:
(a) Quick Ratio = Quick Assets/Current Liabilities Kolbie Company: Quick Ratio = ($8,352 + $6,034 + $3,029)/$8,299 = 2.10 Newton Company: Quick Ratio = ($8,546 + $752 + $5,152)/$16,791 = 0.86
(b) It is clear that Kolbie’s short-term liquidity is stronger than Newton’s. Kolbie’s quick ratio is 144% [(2.10 – 0.86)/0.86] higher. Kolbie has a much stronger relative cash and short-term investment position than does Newton. Kolbie’s cash and shortterm investments are over 72% of total current assets (173% of current liabilities), compared to Newton’s 52% of total current assets (55% of current liabilities). In addition, Newton’s relative accounts payable position is larger than Kolbie’s, indicating the possibility that Newton has longer supplier payment terms than does Kolbie. A quick ratio of 2.10 for Kolbie suggests ample flexibility to make strategic investments with its excess cash, while a quick ratio of 0.86 for Newton indicates an efficient but tight quick asset management policy.

Chapter 12 - Accounting for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies Subjective Short Answer 169. What is a partnership? List three advantages and three disadvantages of the partnership form of business organization. ANSWER: A partnership is a voluntary association of two or more persons who co-own a business for profit. Advantages: Unlike a corporation, a partnership is easy to form, involves no legal procedures, and is less expensive to form. A partnership brings together capital and expertise of two or more individuals. Finally, partnerships pay no income taxes as corporations do. Disadvantages: Some disadvantages of a partnership are mutual agency, which allows each partner to sign contracts in the name of the partnership, and unlimited liability, which makes each partner individually liable for all the debts of the partnership. Additionally, the limited life of a partnership requires a new agreement whenever there is a change to the existing partnership.

Chapter 12 - Accounting for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies 204. Top Dog, LLC provides repair services for oil rigs. The firm has five members in the LLC, which did not change between the first year and the second year. During Year 2, the business expanded into three new regions of the country. The following revenue and employee information is provided: Year 1 Year 2 Revenues (in thousands) $60,525 $58,500 Number of employees 120 160 Required (a) For Year 1 and Year 2, determine the revenue per employee (excluding members). (b) Interpret the trend between the two years. ANSWER: (a) Revenue per employee, Year 1: $60,525,000/120 = $504,375 Revenue per employee, Year 2: $58,500,000/160 = $365,625 (b)
Revenues increased between the two years; however, the number of employees has increased at a faster rate. Thus, the revenue per employee declined from $504,375 in Year 1 to $365,625 in Year 2. This indicates that the efficiency of the firm has declined in the two years. This is likely the result of the expansion. That is, the large increase in the employment base is the likely result of the expansion into the three new regions. These new employees may need to be trained and thus are not as efficient in their jobs as the more experienced employees in the existing regions. Often, a business will suffer productivity losses in the midst of significant expansion because of the inexperience of the new employees.

Required (a) For Year 1 and Year 2, determine the revenue per employee (excluding members). (b) Interpret the trend between the two years. ANSWER: (a) Revenue per employee, Year 1: $50,625,000/125 = $405,000 Revenue per employee, Year 2: $57,750,000/175 = $330,000 (b)
Revenues increased between the two years; however, the number of employees has increased at a faster rate. Thus, the revenue per employee declined from $405,000 in the first year to $330,000 in the second year. This indicates that the efficiency of the firm has declined in the two years. This is likely the result of the expansion. That is, the large increase in the employment base is the likely result of the expansion into the three new regions. These new employees may need to be trained and thus are not as efficient in their jobs as the more experienced employees in the existing regions. Often, a business will suffer productivity losses in the midst of significant expansion because of the inexperience of the new employees.

Total stockholders' equity RATIONALE: 165. Preferred Stock = Number of Shares of Preferred Stock Issued × Par Value of Preferred Stock = 3,000 × $50 = $150,000 166. Excess of Issue Price over Par (Common) = Excess Price of Common Stock × Number of Shares of Common Stock Issued = ($12 – $2) × 10,000 = $100,000 167. Excess of Issue Price over Par (Preferred) = Excess Price of Preferred Stock × Number of Shares of Preferred Stock Issued = ($70 – $50) × 3,000 = $20 × 3,000 = $60,000 168. Common Stock = Par Value of Common Stock × Number of Shares of Common Stock Issued = $2 × 10,000 = $20,000 169.

Appropriate method for accounting for small stock investments ANSWER: j Subjective Short Answer 133. Discuss why companies invest cash in short-term temporary investments vs. long-term investments. ANSWER: When companies temporarily have excess cash not needed for current operations, they often invest it in debt or equity securities. These investments can be short or long term in nature. The primary reason companies invest short term is to earn interest or dividends and to realize gains from the increase in the market price of the securities. When companies make temporary investments, they are listed as current assets on the balance sheet. Long-term investments may be made for the same reasons. However, many long-term investments involve the purchase of stock of another company. This type of purchase may be made for strategic reasons such as an attempt to reduce operating costs, replace management, expand, or integrate.

Chapter 15 - Investments and Fair Value Accounting 162. Discuss the similarities and differences in reporting trading securities, available-for-sale securities, and held-tomaturity securities. ANSWER: Both trading securities and available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value on the balance sheet date. Held-to-maturity securities are reported at amortized cost. Unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are reported on the income statement as part of other income or loss. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reported in the Stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet. Unrealized gains and losses are not calculated or reported on held-to-maturity securities. Trading securities are always reported as current assets. Available-for-sale and held-tomaturity securities may be reported as current or noncurrent assets. The classification for available-for-sale securities depends on management intent. The classification for heldto-maturity securities depends on the remaining time to maturity.

Why would you or why wouldn’t you compare an organization like Ford Motor Company to the local car dealer “Johnson City Ford/Lincoln/Mercury” using vertical and horizontal analysis? ANSWER: Ford Motor Company is an automobile manufacturer with many aspects within the overall company such as military sales, foundries, and credit and financing operations, and its car sales are usually limited to resellers or large fleet purchasers. Johnson City Ford/Lincoln/Mercury is a local reseller that does not have the diverse operations of Ford Motor Company. Most of its sales, which would include new and used vehicles, would be to ultimate consumers and to smaller fleet operations. Major revenues may come from repairs and upgrades of vehicles. Its “credit” department may actually be a representative of another organization specializing in automobile financing. While they both sell Ford cars, they are not comparable companies.

Chapter 17 - Financial Statement Analysis 167. What is a major advantage of using percentages rather than dollar changes in doing horizontal and vertical analyses? ANSWER: When percentages are utilized rather than dollars, companies that are not the same size can be compared. If Carbondale Chemicals is a $10 billion per year sales company and Heartland Chemicals is a $500 million per year sales company, these two companies can still be compared by using percentages determined by the analysis. These companies' results can also be compared to industry averages.

$ 84,000 66,000 $150,000 60,000 $ 90,000
Has the current position of Garrison Corporation improved? Explain. ANSWER: The amount of working capital and the change in working capital are just two indicators of the strength of the current position. A comparison of the current and quick ratios, along with the amount of working capital, gives a better analysis of the current position. Working capital Current ratio Quick ratio
Year 2 $100,000 2.0 0.8
Year 1 $90,000 2.5 1.4
Although working capital has increased, the current ratio has fallen from 2.5 to 2.0, and the quick ratio has fallen from 1.4 to 0.8. Reductions in the current and quick ratios imply that it has become difficult for the company to convert its assets into cash to pay off its short-term liabilities, so the current position has deteriorated.

Although sales increased during the current year, a favorable trend, several unfavorable trends are disclosed by the analysis. The accounts receivable turnover has declined from 8.68 in the preceding year to 7.72 in the current year. Based on credit terms of n/45, a turnover of less than 8 indicates that some receivables are not being collected within the 45-day period. Likewise, the number of days' sales in receivables indicates an unfavorable trend, increasing from 42.04 at the end of the preceding year to 47.25 at the end of the current year.

Chapter 17 - Financial Statement Analysis 182. Define solvency and profitability. How are they alike? ANSWER: Solvency is the ability of a company to meet its financial obligations (debts) as they become due. Profitability is the ability of a company to earn income. They are interrelated because a company that cannot pay its debts will have difficulty obtaining credit. A lack of credit can prevent a company from taking actions (i.e., expansion) that would increase profitability.

Most of this change is from net income falling from $308,000 in Year 2 to $242,000 in Year 3. The cost of debt is 10%. Since the return on total assets exceeds this amount in either year, there is positive leverage from use of debt. However, this leverage is greater in Year 2 because the return on total assets exceeds the cost of debt by a greater amount in Year 2.
