A friend of yours is working toward a master of business administration (MBA) degree. He e-mails you the following note:

"Hey! How are things going? I need your help! We are studying income taxes in my Financial Accounting class and just finished talking about deferred taxes. I think the professor said something about adjusting the value of deferred taxes when it's an asset but not when it's a liability. When I looked at my homework problem, the balance sheet shows both a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability. Shouldn't it be one or the other? And why would one need the value adjusted for one, but not the other? Help!"

You want to help your friend, but you remember having some questions yourself:

• Analyze why FASB requires companies to report both deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities instead of netting them.
• Examine why the FASB requires valuation adjustments for deferred tax assets but does not for deferred tax liabilities.

QUESTION

The Zambian economy has been facing significant macroeconomic challenges as reflected in low growth, high fiscal deficits; rising inflation and debt service obligations as well as low international reserves. The outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has compounded the situation, resulting in unprecedented global public health and economic crises. Although the full impact of the COVID-19 shock on public health and the economy cannot be determined at the moment, indications are that it will be unprecedented. The Bank of Zambia has introduced a number of measures to address the impact of the pandemic on the economy.

The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), at its May 18 -20, 2020 meeting, decided to lower the policy rate by 225 basis points to 9.25%. The Bank has also introduced a K10 billion stimulus package to give the economy a boost.

Required: Critically analyse the performance of the downward revision of monetary policy in May 2020 and the Targeted Medium-term Refinancing Facility on the Zambian financial markets.

Problem 6-20 CVP Applications: Break-Even Analysis; Cost Structure; Target Sales [LO6-1, LO6-3, LO6-4, LO6-5, LO6-6, LO6-8]

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost.

Last year, the company sold 30,500 of these balls, with the following results:

Required:

1. Compute (a) last year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls, and (b) the degree of operating leverage at last year’s sales level.

2. Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that next year's variable expenses will increase by $3.00 per ball. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $25.00, what will be next year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls?

3. Refer to the data in (2) above. If the expected change in variable expenses takes place, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $98,000, as last year?

4. Refer again to the data in (2) above. The president feels that the company must raise the selling price of its basketballs. If Northwood Company wants to maintain the same CM ratio as last year (as computed in requirement 1a), what selling price per ball must it charge next year to cover the increased labor costs?

5. Refer to the original data. The company is discussing the construction of a new, automated manufacturing plant. The new plant would slash variable expenses per ball by 40.00%, but it would cause fixed expenses per year to double. If the new plant is built, what would be the company’s new CM ratio and new break-even point in balls?

6. Refer to the data in (5) above.

a. If the new plant is built, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $98,000, as last year?

b. Assume the new plant is built and that next year the company manufactures and sells 30,500 balls (the same number as sold last year). Prepare a contribution format income statement and compute the degree of operating leverage.

Graham Potato Company has projected sales of $14,400 in September, $17,000 in October, $24,400 in November, and $20,400 in December. Of the company's sales, 25 percent are paid for by cash and 75 percent are sold on credit. Experience shows that 40 percent of accounts receivable are paid in the month after the sale, while the remaining 60 percent are paid two months after. Determine collections for November and December.
  
Also assume Graham’s cash payments for November and December are $20,500 and $13,000, respectively. The beginning cash balance in November is $5,000, which is the desired minimum balance.

a. Prepare a cash receipts schedule for November and December.

b. Prepare a cash budget with borrowing needed or repayments for November and December. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Assume the November beginning loan balance is $0.)

Please Answer All of Them Please !

1. Presented below is the stockholders' equity section of Coronado Industries at December 31, 2020:

Problem 10A-10 Comprehensive Standard Cost Variances [LO10-1, LO10-2, LO10-3, LO10-4] "Wonderful! Not only did our salespeople do a good job in meeting the sales budget this year, but our production people did a good job in controlling costs as well,” said Kim Clark, president of Martell Company. “Our $20,825 overall manufacturing cost variance is only .5% of the $4,165,000 standard cost of products made during the year. That's well within the 3% parameter set by management for acceptable variances. It looks like everyone will be in line for a bonus this year." The company produces and sells a single product. The standard cost card for the product follows: Inputs (1) Standard Quantity or Hours (2) Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost (1) × (2) Direct materials 3.50 feet $ 4.30 per foot $ 15.05 Direct labor 2.2 hours $ 9 per hour 19.80 Variable overhead 2.2 hours $ 2.20 per hour 4.84 Fixed overhead 2.2 hours $ 4.50 per hour 9.90 Total standard cost per unit $ 49.59 The following additional information is available for the year just completed: The company manufactured 20,000 units of product during the year. A total of 69,000 feet of material was purchased during the year at a cost of $4.50 per foot. All of this material was used to manufacture the 20,000 units produced. There were no beginning or ending inventories for the year. The company worked 45,500 direct labor-hours during the year at a direct labor cost of $8.85 per hour. Overhead is applied to products on the basis of standard direct labor-hours. Data relating to manufacturing overhead costs follow: Denominator activity level (direct labor-hours) 40,000 Budgeted fixed overhead costs $ 180,000 Actual variable overhead costs incurred $ 113,750 Actual fixed overhead costs incurred $ 177,100 Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the year. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the year. 3. For manufacturing overhead compute: a. The variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for the year. b. The fixed overhead budget and volume variances for the year. (For all requirements, indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Renew Energy Ltd. (REL) manufactures and sells directly to customers a special long-lasting rechargeable battery for use in digital electronic equipment. Each battery sold comes with a guarantee that the company will replace free of charge any battery that is found to be defective within six months from the end of the month in which the battery was sold. On June 30, 2020, the Warranty Liability account had a balance of $45,000, but by December 31, 2020, this amount had been reduced to $5,000 by charges for batteries returned.

REL has been in business for many years and has consistently experienced an 7% return rate. However, effective October 1, 2020, because of a change in the manufacturing process, the rate increased to a total of 9%. Each battery is stamped with a date at the time of sale so that REL has developed information on the likely pattern of returns during the six-month period, starting with the month following the sale. (Assume no batteries are returned in the month of sale.)

For example, for January sales, 20% of the returns are expected in February, 30% in March, and so on. Sales of these batteries for the second half of 2020 were:

REL’s warranty also covers the payment of the freight cost on defective batteries returned and on new batteries sent as replacements. This freight cost is 10% of the sales price of the batteries returned. The manufacturing cost of a battery is roughly 60% of its sales price, and the salvage value of the returned batteries averages 14% of the sales price. Assume that REL follows IFRS and that it uses the expense approach to account for warranties.

Calculate the warranty expense that will be reported for the July 1 to December 31, 2020 period.
