MSI is considering eliminating a product from its ToddleTown Tours collection. This collection is aimed at children one to three years of age and includes “tours” of a hypothetical town. Two products, The Pet Store Parade and The Grocery Getaway, have impressive sales. However, sales for the third CD in the collection, The Post Office Polka, have lagged the others. Several other CDs are planned for this collection, but none is ready for production.

MSI’s information related to the ToddleTown Tours collection follows:

Below are three independent situations.

  1. ABC Ltd is a manufacturer of boats and gives warranties at the time of sale to purchasers of its boats. Pursuant to the warranty terms, ABC Ltd undertakes to make good, by repair or replacement, manufacturing defects that become apparent within three years from the date of sale.
  2. ABC Ltd has a number of non-current assets, some of which require, in addition to normal ongoing maintenance, substantial expenditure on major refits/refurbishment at certain intervals or on major components that require replacement at regular intervals.
  3. XYZ Ltd is a listed company that provides food to functional centres that host events such as wedding and engagement parties. After an engagement party held by one of XYZ Ltd’s customers in May 2020, 50 people became ill, possibly as a results of food poisoning from products sold by XYZ Ltd. Legal proceedings were commenced seeking damages from XYZ Ltd. XYZ Ltd disputed liability by claiming that the functional centre was at fault for handling the food incorrectly. Up to the date of 30 June 2020 (financial year-end), XYZ Ltd’s lawyers advise that it was probable that XYZ Ltd would not be found liable

    REQUIRED:

    Should a liability in the form of a provision be recorded? Briefly justify your decisions.

Alpha and Beta are divisions within the same company. The managers of both divisions are evaluated based on their own division’s return on investment (ROI). Assume the following information relative to the two divisions:

Case
1 2 3 4
Alpha Division:
Capacity in units 52,000 319,000 105,000 193,000
Number of units now being sold to
outside customers
52,000 319,000 81,000 193,000
Selling price per unit to outside
customers
$ 95 $ 40 $ 66 $ 48
Variable costs per unit $ 59 $ 20 $ 40 $ 34
Fixed costs per unit (based on
capacity)
$ 21 $ 7 $ 23 $ 10
Beta Division:
Number of units needed annually 10,100 68,000 20,000 56,000
Purchase price now being paid to
an outside supplier
$ 89 $ 38 $ 66 *

*Before any purchase discount.

Managers are free to decide if they will participate in any internal transfers. All transfer prices are negotiated.

Required:

1. Refer to case 1 shown above. Alpha Division can avoid $3 per unit in commissions on any sales to Beta Division.

a. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price from the perspective of the Alpha Division?

b. What is the highest acceptable transfer price from the perspective of the Beta Division?

c. What is the range of acceptable transfer prices (if any) between the two divisions? Will the managers probably agree to a transfer?

2. Refer to case 2 shown above. A study indicates that Alpha Division can avoid $5 per unit in shipping costs on any sales to Beta Division.

a. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price from the perspective of the Alpha Division?

b. What is the highest acceptable transfer price from the perspective of the Beta Division?

c. What is the range of acceptable transfer prices (if any) between the two divisions? Would you expect any disagreement between the two divisional managers over what the exact transfer price should be?

d. Assume Alpha Division offers to sell 68,000 units to Beta Division for $37 per unit and that Beta Division refuses this price. What will be the loss in potential profits for the company as a whole?

3. Refer to case 3 shown above. Assume that Beta Division is now receiving an 6% price discount from the outside supplier.

a. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price from the perspective of the Alpha Division?

b. What is the highest acceptable transfer price from the perspective of the Beta Division?

c. What is the range of acceptable transfer prices (if any) between the two divisions? Will the managers probably agree to a transfer?

d. Assume Beta Division offers to purchase 20,000 units from Alpha Division at $57.04 per unit. If Alpha Division accepts this price, would you expect its ROI to increase, decrease, or remain unchanged?

4. Refer to case 4 shown above. Assume that Beta Division wants Alpha Division to provide it with 56,000 units of a different product from the one Alpha Division is producing now. The new product would require $29 per unit in variable costs and would require that Alpha Division cut back production of its present product by 28,000 units annually. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price from Alpha Division’s perspective?

Client acceptance is an important part of the pre-engagement planning process for a CPA. For an existing client, this process often involves reviewing the firm's financial performance on the previous year's engagement, debriefing with the prior year team regarding any issues working with the client, reviewing public information about the company's activities during the year, and considering other factors to determine the relative risk to the firm to perform services for that client for another year. For a new client to a firm, the client acceptance process should be a more robust evaluation as a new client brings a relatively unknown level of risk to the firm.


Required:


If you were the audit partner in charge of the new client acceptance process, what would be the three most important pieces of information that you would want to review about that company before engaging to perform an audit for the new client?
