Problem 26-17

Here are data on three hedge funds. Each fund charges its investors an incentive fee of 10% of total returns. Suppose initially that a fund of funds (FF) manager buys equal amounts of each of these funds, and also charges its investors a 10% incentive fee. For simplicity, assume also that management fees other than incentive fees are zero for all funds.

a. Compute the rate of return after incentive fees to an investor in the fund of funds. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

b. Suppose that instead of buying shares in each of the three hedge funds, a stand-alone (SA) hedge fund purchases the same portfolio as the three underlying funds. The total value and composition of the SA fund is therefore identical to the one that would result from aggregating the three hedge funds. Consider an investor in the SA fund. After paying 10% incentive fees, what would be the value of the investor’s portfolio at the end of the year? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

d. Now suppose that the return on the portfolio held by hedge fund 3 were −35% rather than +35%. Recalculate your answers to parts (a) and (b). (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Question:-
The following are mutually exclusive scenarios.
a) During 20X2 , a Singapore-incorporated company, JK Pte Ltd, discovered that the inventory as stated in the published 20X1 statement of Financial Position was overstated by $150,000.

You have recently been hired as the assistant controller for Stanton Temperton Corporation, which rents building space in major metropolitan areas. Customers are required to pay six months of rent in advance. At the end of 2018, the company's president, Jim Temperton, notices that net income has fallen compared to last year. In 2017, the company reported before-tax profit of $330,000, but in 2018 the before-tax profit is only $280,000. This concerns Jim for two reasons. First, his year-end bonus is tied directly to before-tax profits. Second, shareholders may see a decline in profitability as a weakness in the company and begin to sell their stock. With the sell-off of stock, Jim's personal investment in the company's stock, as well as his company-operated retirement plan, will be in jeopardy of severe losses. After close inspection of the financial statements, Jim notices that the balance of the Deferred Revenue account is $120,000. This amount represents payments in advance from long-term customers ($80,000) and from relatively new customers ($40,000). Jim comes to you, the company's accountant, and suggests that the firm should recognize as revenue in 2018 the $80,000 received in advance from long-term customers. He offers the following explanation: “First, we have received these customers' cash by the end of 2018, so there is no question about their ability to pay. Second, we have a long-term history of fulfilling our obligation to these customers. We have always stood by our commitments to our customers and we always will. We earned that money when we got them to sign the six-month contract.”

Discuss the ethical dilemma you face:

Required: 1) Reach a consensus concerning the answers to the four questions.

2) Write a memo to the company’s controller discussing the issue and the stance that your group is taking.
