ACC 305 Week 5 Ethics Case 10-12 Ethics Case 10-12 on page 553 - Mayer Biotechnical, Inc - Research and development ● LO8 Mayer Biotechnical, Inc., develops, manufactures, and sells pharmaceuticals. Significant research and development (R&D) expenditures are made for the development of new drugs and the improvement of existing drugs. During 2011, $220 million was spent on R&D. Of this amount, $30 million was spent on the purchase of equipment to be used in a research project involving the development of a new antibiotic. The controller, Alice Cooper, is considering capitalizing the equipment and depreciating it over the five-year useful life of the equipment at $6 million per year, even though the equipment likely will be used on only one project. The company president has asked Alice to make every effort to increase 2011 earnings because in 2012 the company will be seeking significant new financing from both debt and equity sources. “I guess we might use the equipment in other projects later,” Alice wondered to herself. |

ACC 305 Week 4 Ethics Case 9-11 |
ACC 305 Week 4 Ethics Case 9-11 Ethics Case 9-11 on page 497 Danville Bottlers is a wholesale beverage company. Danville uses the FIFO inventory method to determine the cost of its ending inventory. Ending inventory quantities are determined by a physical count. For the fiscal year- end June 30, 2011, ending inventory was originally determined to be $3,265,000. However, on July 17, 2011, John Howard, the company’s controller, discovered an error in the ending inventory count. He determined that the correct ending inventory amount should be $2,600,000. Danville is a privately owned corporation with significant financing provided by a local bank. The bank requires annual audited financial statements as a condition of the loan. By July 17, the auditors had completed their review of the financial statements which are scheduled to be issued on July 25. They did not discover the inventory error. John’s first reaction was to communicate his finding to the auditors and to revise the financial statements before they are issued. However, he knows that his and his fellow workers’ profit-sharing plans are based on annual pretax earnings and that if he revises the statements, everyone’s profit-sharing bonus will be significantly reduced. Required: 1. Why will bonuses be negatively affected? What is the effect on pretax earnings? 2. If the error is not corrected in the current year and is discovered by the auditors during the following year’s audit, how will it be reported in the company’s financial statements? 3. Discuss the ethical dilemma John Howard faces. |

You have been told that the company will be profitable in its first year and for the foreseeable future. |

John Smith is the petty cash custodian. John approves all requests for payment out of the $200 fund, which is replenished at the end of each month.

All of the company’s cash disbursements are made by check. Each check must be supported by an approved voucher, which is in turn supported by the appropriate invoice and, for purchases, a receiving document. The vouchers are approved by Dean Leiser, the chief accountant, after reviewing the supporting documentation. Betty Hanson prepares the checks for Leiser’s signature. Leiser also maintains the company’s check register (the cash disbursements journal) and reconciles the bank account at the end of each month. 3.

ACC 305 Week 2 Problem Integrating Case 5-23 |
ACC 305 Week 2 Problem Integrating Case 5-23 Integrating Case 5-23 on page 296 You are a new staff accountant with a large regional CPA firm, participating in your first audit. You recall from your auditing class that CPAs often use ratios to test the reasonableness of accounting numbers provided by the client. Since ratios reflect the relationships among various account balances, if it is assumed that prior relation- ships still hold, prior years’ ratios can be used to estimate what current balances should approximate. However, you never actually performed this kind of analysis until now. The CPA in charge of the audit of Covington Pike Corporation brings you the list of ratios shown below and tells you these reflect the relationships maintained by Covington Pike in recent years. Profit margin on sales = 5% Return on assets = 7.5% Gross profit margin = 40% Inventory turnover ratio = 6 times Receivables turnover ratio = 25 Acid-test ratio = .9 Current ratio = 2 to 1 Return on shareholders’ equity = 10% Debt to equity ratio = 1/3 Times interest earned ratio = 12 times Jotted in the margins are the following notes: ● Net income $15,000 ● Only one short-term note ($5,000); all other current liabilities are trade accounts ● Property, plant, and equipment are the only noncurrent assets ● Bonds payable are the only noncurrent liabilities ● The effective interest rate on short-term notes and bonds is 8% ● No investment securities ● Cash balance totals $15,000 Required: You are requested to approximate the current year’s balances in the form of a balance sheet and income statement, to the extent the information allows. Accompany those financial statements with the calculations you use to estimate each amount reported. |

ACC 305 Week 1 DQ 2 Cash versus Accrual and Financial Disclosures |
ACC 305 Week 1 DQ 2 Cash versus Accrual and Financial Disclosures Judgment Case 2-1 (page 109) You have recently been hired by Davis & Company, a small public accounting firm. One of the firm’s partners, Alice Davis, has asked you to deal with a disgruntled client, Mr. Sean Pitt, owner of the city’s largest hardware store. Mr. Pitt is applying to a local bank for a substantial loan to remodel his store. The bank requires accrual based financial statements but Mr. Pitt has always kept the company’s records on a cash basis. He does not see the purpose of accrual based statements. His most recent outburst went something like this: “After all, I collect cash from customers, pay my bills in cash, and I am going to pay the bank loan with cash. And, I already show my building and equipment as assets and depreciate them. I just don’t understand the problem.” Required: * Explain the difference between a cash basis and an accrual basis measure of performance.* Why, in most cases, does accrual basis net income provide a better measure of performance than net operating cash flow? Explain the purpose of adjusting entries as they relate to the difference between cash and accrual accounting. |
