On July 1, 2016, Killearn Company acquired 142,000 of the outstanding shares of Shaun Company for $15 per share. This acquisition gave Killearn a 40 percent ownership of Shaun and allowed Killearn to significantly influence the investee's decisions.

As of July 1, 2016, the investee had assets with a book value of $5 million and liabilities of $890,000. At the time, Shaun held equipment appraised at $245,000 above book value; it was considered to have a seven-year remaining life with no salvage value. Shaun also held a copyright with a five-year remaining life on its books that was undervalued by $800,000. Any remaining excess cost was attributable to goodwill. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method. Killearn applies the equity method for its investment in Shaun.

Shaun's policy is to declare and pay a $1 per share cash dividend every April 1 and October 1. Shaun's income, earned evenly throughout each year, was $614,000 in 2016, $654,600 in 2017, and $704,200 in 2018.

In addition, Killearn sold inventory costing $145,800 to Shaun for $243,000 during 2017. Shaun resold $102,000 of this inventory during 2017 and the remaining $141,000 during 2018.

1. Determine the equity income to be recognized by Killearn during each of these years.

2. Compute Killearn's investment in Shaun Company's balance as of December 31, 2018.

2. TurboCard credit card company offers a loyalty program to its credit card users whereby the credit card company gives the credit card user points for amounts purchased from merchants when using the credit card. These points may be accumulated and redeemed for a number of different goods or services, including cash-back. TurboCard separately enters into arrangements with merchants under which the credit card company provides the financing for the transaction between the merchant and the credit card user, in return for which the credit card company receives a stated fee from the merchant. When the credit card user uses the credit card to make a purchase from a merchant, TurboCard honors its agreement with the merchant and advances the merchant the funding for the amount of the transaction after deducting the fee to which the credit card company is entitled. However, as a result of that transaction, TurboCard now also has an obligation to the credit card user to provide the specified number of points in the loyalty program.

Required:

b. Assuming there are two performance obligations, how would revenue be recognized?

QUESTION THREE Sally has decided to go into business to make and sell organic, home-made playdough that is safe for children if they eat it. Business is going well and she incorporates the business, calling it Funtime Pty Ltd (‘Funtime’). Sally appoints herself as the Managing Director, and her husband Brad as a second director. To ensure her privacy, the registered office of the company is the address of her accountant’s firm (a common service the firm provides for its clients). Sally works out that she needs $50,000 to renovate her kitchen at home and buy equipment so that she can make industrial quantities of play dough; $10,000 to buy plastic tubs and labels; and $25,000 to launch a marketing campaign blitz. She tells her family she needs more than $85,000 in capital for the company to be successful in the longer term. Ten of her family members join as shareholders and she issues them each with $20,000 in ordinary shares. Sally is working more than full-time on this venture and draws up a contract to ensure she can earn a salary, at $100,000 per annum, to fairly compensate her for her labour. Sally enters into many contracts with suppliers to obtain supplies, including with Flashy Ltd (‘Flashy’) for $25,000 to purchase online advertising and brochures. Also, she enters into a contract with Glamour Designs Pty Ltd (‘Glamour Designs’) to completely renovate her kitchen (and bathroom) at a cost of $75,000 in three monthly instalments. She explains to representatives of both companies that she is authorised to sign the contracts on behalf of the company. Sally takes out a business loan of $50,000 from the Which Banking Group Ltd (‘WBG’) on behalf of Funtime. She does not disclose to the bank that she is drawing a wage from the company but does agree to secure the loan against Funtime's capital equipment and inventory. On the loan documents Sally signs her name and carefully forges Brad’s signature as he was out of town that day. After nine months in business, the money is almost gone, and Sally is finding it hard to make ends meet. She misses the second payment instalment with Glamour Designs, and is unable to pay a month later when a follow up notice arrives. On 1 October 2020, Sally receives a statutory demand addressed to Funtime from Glamour Designs requiring “immediate payment” for the works done to date on her home. The statutory demand was sent by post to Sally’s home address and is accompanied by a signed letter enclosing a copy of the contract, but there are no specific details of how much is owing on the demand itself. Sally is beside herself with worry, and is not sure how she can find the money to pay all of her creditors. She doesn’t want to worry Brad, as he has already explained that he finds the monthly directors’ meetings pointless. Brad simply agrees with whatever Sally wants to do and is fond of saying, “do whatever you like, this is your company not mine”. Also, with his full-time job working for Flashy, he never had time to read the documentation relating to quotes. Although he did thank Sally for providing business with Flashy, as his boss gave him a surprise $2,500 bonus for securing the work.

REQUIRED: Respond to the above case study problem and answer all questions. Refer to relevant cases and statutory law in your answers as appropriate.

a) Explain to Sally whether the loan contract between Funtime and WBG is legally enforceable.

b) Advise Sally about Funtime’s options in responding to the statutory demand issued by Glamour Designs.

c) Advise Sally whether she or Brad have breached their duties as company directors, and whether any valid defences apply. (Assume all events took place in 2020).

Holly Springs, Inc. contracted with Coldwater Corporation to have constructed a custom-made lathe. The machine was completed and ready for use on January 1, 2018.

Two partnerships of A & B and C&D began business on Jan 1^st 2017; each partnership owns one retail appliance store. The two partnerships agree to combine as of April 1^st 2017 to form a new partnership, ABCD Discount Stores. The two businesses agreed upon the following points:

1. Profit and loss ratios.

2. Capital investments. The opening capital investments for the new partnership are to be in the same ratio as the profit and loss sharing ratios for the new partnership. If necessary, certain partners may have to contribute additional cash, and others may have to withdraw cash to bring the capital investments into the proper ratio.
3. Accounts receivable. The partners agreed to set the new partnership’s allowance for bad debts at 3% of the accounts receivable contributed by A&B and 12% of the accounts receivable contributed by C&D.
4. Inventory. The new partnership’s opening inventory is to be valued by the FIFO method. B&M used the FIFO method to value inventory (which approximates its current value), and A&J used the LIFO method. The LIFO inventory represents 85% of its FIFO value.
5. Property and equipment. The partners agree that the building’s current value is approximately 70% of the building’s historical cost, as recorded on each partnership’s books.
6. Unpaid liability. After each partnership’s books were closed on 31^st March 2017, an unrecorded merchandise purchase of $1,500 by A&B was discovered. The merchandise had been sold by 31^st March 2017.
7. The 31^st March 2017 post closing trial balances of the partnerships was as follow.

Required:

1. Prepare the journal entries to record the initial capital contribution after considering the effect of this information. Use separate entries for each of the combining partnerships.
2. Prepare a schedule computing the cash contributed or withdrawn by each partner to bring the initial capital balances into the profit and los sharing ratio.
