Bilboa Freightlines, S.A., of Panama, has a small truck that it uses for intracity deliveries. The truck is worn out and must be either overhauled or replaced with a new truck. The company has assembled the following information:

If the company keeps and overhauls its present delivery truck, then the truck will be usable for five more years. If a new truck is purchased, it will be used for five years, after which it will be traded in on another truck. The new truck would be diesel-operated, resulting in a substantial reduction in annual operating costs, as shown above.

The company computes depreciation on a straight-line basis. All investment projects are evaluated using a 13% discount rate.

Click here to view Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 13B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables.

Required:

1. What is the net present value of the “keep the old truck” alternative?

2. What is the net present value of the “purchase the new truck” alternative?

3. Should Bilboa Freightlines keep the old truck or purchase the new one?

Gustav Leasing Company agrees to lease equipment to Julliard Corporation on January 1, 2017. The

following information relates to the lease agreement.

1. The term of the lease is 6 years with no renewal option, and the machinery has an estimated

economic life of 8 years.

2. The cost of the machinery is $310,000, and the fair value of the asset on January 1, 2017, is $424,000.

3. At the end of the lease term, the asset reverts to the lessor and has a guaranteed residual value of

$35,000. Julliard estimates that the expected residual value at the end of the lease term will be $35,000.

Julliard amortizes all of its leased equipment on a straight-line basis.

4. The lease agreement requires equal annual rental payments, beginning on January 1, 2017.

5. The collectability of the lease payments is probable.

6. Gustav desires a 6% rate of return on its investments. Julliard’s incremental borrowing rate is 8%, and

the lessor’s implicit rate is unknown.

(Assume the accounting period ends on December 31)

(a) Discuss the nature of this lease for both the lessee and the lessor.

(b) Calculate the amount of the annual rental payment required.

(c) Compute the value of the lease liability to the lessee.

(d) Prepare the journal entries Julliard would make in 2017 and 2018 related to the lease arrangement.

(e) Prepare the journal entries Gustav would make in 2017 and 2018 related to the lease arrangement.

(f) Suppose Julliard expects the residual value at the end of the lease term to be $28,000 but still

guarantees a residual of $35,000. Compute the value of the lease liability at lease commencement.

Rebeca Pérez is the Controller of the firm Pérez Martínez & Asociados. She has been evaluating inventory reports over the past few months and thinks that one or more employees have been stealing large amounts of inventory that was for sale. Quickly, Rebeca asked the staff that manages the information systems to look for data that would help her solve this situation, however, they indicated that, mysteriously, much of the inventory information had been lost and they had no explanation for it. Rebeca talked to the company's internal auditors to ask about the missing reports and they were not aware of the situation either.

Based on the above, answer the following questions in paragraph form (5 to 6 sentences each):

1. What should Rebecca do? Should she call the police or should she hire an outside forensic accountant?

2. How can a forensic accountant help you solve this case? Look for outside information to elaborate on your answer.

3. What things can the forensic accountant do that an internal auditor cannot do?

Question 8 Byrd Company produces one product, a putter called GO-Putter. Byrd uses a standard cost system and determines that it should take one hour of direct labor to produce one GO-Putter. The normal production capacity for this putter is 135,000 units per year. The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $742,500 comprised of $270,000 of variable costs and $472,500 of fixed costs. Byrd applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. During the current year, Byrd produced 85,200 putters, worked 94,000 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $140,580 and fixed overhead costs of $416,600.
