You are a Financial Manager for Dexter Manufacturing. Your sales were $1,000,000 in 2010, and $1,000,000 again in 2011. Your accounting department came to you recently and stated that the cash balance is much lower at the end of 2011 than it was in 2010. You calculate your Accounts Receivable and Inventory Turnover for 2011 and noticed that both of these ratios have DROPPED from 2010 to 2011! Describe in a couple paragraphs what has happened to Accounts Receivable and Inventory. Does this help explain why cash is running low in your opinion? What could you suggest to your management team to help improve these 2 ratios and to help increase cash?

10) Universal Leasing leases electronic equipment to a variety
of businesses. The company’s primary service is providing alternate
financing by acquiring equipment and leasing it to customers under
long-term sales-type leases. Universal earns interest under these
arrangements at a 10% annual rate.
The company leased an electronic typesetting machine it purchased
for $30,900 to a local publisher, Desktop Inc. on December 31,
2017. The lease contract specified annual payments of $8,000
beginning January 1, 2018, the beginning of the lease, and each
December 31 through 2019 (three-year lease term). The publisher had
the option to purchase the machine on December 30, 2020, the end of
the lease term, for $12,000 when it was expected to have a residual
value of $16,000, a sufficient difference that exercise seems
reasonably certain. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD
of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the
tables provided.)
Required:
1. Show how Universal calculated the $8,000 annual
lease payments for this sales-type lease.
2. Prepare an amortization schedule that describes
the pattern of interest revenue for Universal Leasing over the
lease term.
3. Prepare the appropriate entries for Universal
Leasing from the beginning of the lease through the end of the
lease term.

Smoky Mountain Corporation makes two types of hiking boots—the Xtreme and the Pathfinder. Data concerning these two product lines appear below:
Mercer Asbestos Removal Company removes potentially toxic asbestos insulation and related products from buildings. There has been a long-simmering dispute between the company’s estimator and the work supervisors. The on-site supervisors claim that the estimators do not adequately distinguish between routine work, such as removal of asbestos insulation around heating pipes in older homes, and nonroutine work, such as removing asbestos-contaminated ceiling plaster in industrial buildings. The on-site supervisors believe that nonroutine work is far more expensive than routine work and should bear higher customer charges. The estimator sums up his position in this way: “My job is to measure the area to be cleared of asbestos. As directed by top management, I simply multiply the square footage by $3.60 to determine the bid price. Since our average cost is only $2.775 per square foot, that leaves enough cushion to take care of the additional costs of nonroutine work that shows up. Besides, it is difficult to know what is routine or not routine until you actually start tearing things apart.” To shed light on this controversy, the company initiated an activity-based costing study of all of its costs. Data from the activity-based costing system follow:
Required: 1. Perform the first-stage allocation of costs to the activity cost pools. 2. Compute the activity rates for the activity cost pools. 3. Using the activity rates you have computed, determine the total cost and the average cost per thousand square feet of each of the following jobs according to the activity-based costing system. a. A routine 1,000-square-foot asbestos removal job. b. A routine 2,000-square-foot asbestos removal job. c. A nonroutine 2,000-square-foot asbestos removal job. |
