    Cummins Case Summary

    We are reducing our fair value estimate to $123 per share from $126, in response to the strong U.S. dollar, which reduces profits from the 50% of Cummins sales that come from outside the U.S. Additionally, headwinds at Cummins' key agriculture, mining, and construction customers appear to be increasing and translating into a slower 2016 sales outlook than we initially forecast. We expect that Cummins will produce $23 billion of midcycle revenue by 2019 as it expands its market share versus smaller rivals. Furthermore, we think Cummins will benefit from Navistar's decision to source Cummins engines on its heavy-duty trucks. We forecast 3% growth in unit volume for the five-year forecast period and expect that moderate price increases and a mix…

    Since Kadex Corporation treated the purchase of property, plant, and equipment like a repair and maintenance expense, Jones & Scranton would likely discover the error (even though they are only auditing the third year and the error occurred in years one and two) in a number of ways. First, when the auditors verify the existence of the property, plant, and equipment, they will discover plant and equipment items that are not listed on the assets list. Second, when the auditors determine the completeness of the recorded property, plant, and equipment, they will discover plant and equipment items that were not recorded. Finally, when the auditors determine the appropriate valuation or allocation of property, plant, and equipment, the will find that plant and equipment valuations are not accurate because items are missing.…

    After using the fraud triangle and information gathered I have identified the following incentives and pressures, opportunities, and attitudes for Pinnacle to engage in fraudulent financial reporting. The incentive is that Pinnacle’s board is trying to sell the Machine-Tec division and so the President is determined to make it as profitable as possible. The pressure they are facing is that Pinnacle is in the complex situation where they can violate its debt agreements. With their opportunities Pinnacle is involved in multiple related party transactions with some issues related to realizable value existing with inventory in addition to receivables. Lastly, under attitudes, Pinnacle has had problems with the IRS which could be problematic for them later.…

    Background: Treasurer’s Operating Instruction 40-8 (TOI-40-8) for Corporate Guaranties and Letters of Credit (LC) dictates that when a non-U.S. government customer’s payment schedule, for any proposal valued over USD $1M, does not provide a Positive Cash Flow, Lockheed Martin must receive either a standby or documentary LC in the corporation’s favor.

    Another issue that needs to be considered for an S-Corp with substantial E&P is the passive investment income tax under §1375.

    In my opinion, Sandia Laboratories should not try to hide the case, or pretend the one never existed. Sandia claims to be leaders in global security, so most probably they know what are the consequences of such a big threat as espionage. Personally, I believe that they did not want their reputation to be run-down. At the end, they are experts in nuclear weapon systems, defence & assessments systems, energy & climate systems and finally, in global security and yet, they have been compromised. However, just alike Carpenter, the management had more choices to solve this out.…
