Monkey Business, an import business, builds special-order yachts. They decide to build one for a customer for at a cost $2,500,000. It will take 2 years (they start building in June 1, 2007) to build with total costs of $1,900,000: costs of $320,000 in 2007; $1,200,000 in 2008; and the remainder in 2009 (assume they stick to budget). The customer puts a deposit down of $500,000 and pays the remainder in 4 installments, each due every 6 months. For each year (2007, 2008, and 2009) compute the revenue expense, and gross profits reported for this construction project. Assume they do not have a written contract but based on this customer having purchased several yachts in the past, they believe he will pay for the boat in a timely manner. Show all your work.
SAS Computers owns a patent on a computer processor. The processor was developed and capitalized at a cost of €2,100,000 in the beginning of 2015. It was expected to be economically useful for 7 years and have no residual value. At the beginning of 2018, a new processor was developed, making the old processor worth €900,000 (independent appraiser) with €200,000 total cost to sell. The present value of the processor’s future cash flows, given the development of the newer processor, is estimated to be €870,000. At this point, it is expected to have a useful life of 4 years with no residual value. Is the processor impaired in 2018? If it is impaired, prepare the to record the loss. Also prepare the journal entry for amortization in 2018. Show your work.
