Natalie’s friend, Curtis Lesperance, decides to meet with Natalie after hearing that her discussions about a possible business partnership with her friend Katy Peterson have failed. (Natalie had decided that forming a partnership with Katy, a high school friend, would hurt their friendship. Natalie had also concluded that she and Katy were not compatible to operate a business venture together.) Because Natalie has been so successful with Continuing Cookie Chronicle and Curtis has been just as successful with his coffee shop, they both conclude that they could benefit from each other’s business expertise. Curtis and Natalie next evaluate the different types of business organization. Because of the advantage of limited personal liability, they decide to form a corporation. Curtis has operated his coffee shop for 2 years. He buys coffee, muffins, and cookies from a local supplier. Natalie’s business consists of giving cookie-making classes and selling fine European mixers. The plan is for Natalie to use the premises Curtis currently rents to give her cooking-making classes and demonstrations of the mixers that she sells. Natalie will also hire, train, and supervise staff to bake the cookies and muffins sold in the coffee shop. By offering her classes on the premises, Natalie will save on travel time going from one place to another. Another advantage is that the coffee shop will have one central location for selling the mixers. The current market values of the assets of both businesses are as follows. Curtis’s Coffee Continuing Cookie Chronicle Cash $7,130 $12,000 Accounts receivable 100 800 Inventory 450 1,200 Equipment 2,500 1,000 * *Cookie Chronicle decided not to buy the delivery van considered in Chapter 10. Combining forces will also allow Natalie and Curtis to pool their resources and buy a few more assets to run their new business venture. Curtis and Natalie then meet with a lawyer and form a corporation on November 1, 2020, called Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. The articles of incorporation state that there will be two classes of shares that the corporation is authorized to issue: common shares and preferred shares. They authorize 100,000 no-par shares of common stock, and 10,000 no-par shares of preferred stock with a $0.50 noncumulative dividend. The assets held by each of their sole proprietorships will be transferred into the corporation at current market value. Curtis will receive 10,180 common shares, and Natalie will receive 15,000 common shares in the corporation. Therefore, the shares have a fair value of $1 per share. Natalie and Curtis are very excited about this new business venture. They come to you with the following questions: Prepare the journal entries required on November 1, 2020, the date when Natalie and Curtis transfer the assets of their respective businesses into Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc.

Assume that Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. issues 1,000 $0.50 noncumulative preferred shares to Curtis’s dad and the same number to Natalie’s grandmother, in both cases for $5,000. Also assume that Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. issues 750 common shares to its lawyer.

Prepare the journal entries for each of these transactions. They all occurred on November 1. Prepare the opening balance sheet for Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. as of November 1, 2020, including the journal entries in (b) and (c) above.

Under the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Standards (U.S. GAAP), property, plant and Equipment are reported at historical cost net of accumulated depreciation. These assets are written down to fair value when it is determined that they have been impaired.

Several other countries, including Australia, Brazil,England, Mexico and Singapore, permit the revaluation of property, plant and equipment to their current cost as of the balance sheet date. The primary argument in favor of revaluation is that the historical cost of assets purchased ten, twenty, or more years ago is not meaningful. A primary argument against revaluation is the lack of objectivity in arriving at current cost estimates,particularly for old assets that either will or cannot be replaced with similar assets or for which there are no comparable or similar assets currently available for purchase.

UCC Revised Article 3 covers negotiable instruments within the US. What problems hinder any efforts to establish uniform international rules for negotiable instruments? What additional variables do you see in trying to establish a uniform international set of rules for negotiable instruments compared to doing so solely within the United States?

Like the folk song from the 1960's, "The times they are a changin'." UCC revised Article 3 and the law of negotiable instruments were designed to create a substitute for cash and to facilitate commerce. Has the importance of negotiable instruments in commerce increased or decreased in recent years? How will increased online commerce affect the importance of negotiable instruments?
