Duncan Street Company (DSC), a British company, is considering establishing an operation in the United States to assemble and distribute smart speakers. The initial investment is estimated to be 25,000,000 British pounds (GBP), which is equivalent to 30,000,000 U.S. dollars (USD) at the current exchange rate. Given the current corporate income tax rate in the United States, DSC estimates that total after-tax annual cash flow in each of the three years of the investment’s life would be US$10,000,000, US$12,000,000, and US$15,000,000, respectively. However, the U.S. national legislature is considering a reduction in the corporate income tax rate that would go into effect in the second year of the investment’s life and would result in the following total annual cash flows: US$10,000,000 in year 1, US$14,000,000 in year 2, and US$18,000,000 in year 3. DSC estimates the probability of the tax rate reduction occurring at 50 percent. DSC uses a discount rate of 12 percent in evaluating potential capital investments. Present value factors at 12 percent are as follows: Period PV Factor 1. . . . . . 0.893 2. . . . . . 0.797 3. . . . . . 0.712 The U.S. operation will distribute 100 percent of its after-tax annual cash flow to DSC as a dividend at the end of each year. The terminal value of the investment at the end of three years is estimated to be US$25,000,000. The U.S. withholding tax on dividends is 5 percent; repatriation of the investment’s terminal value will not be subject to U.S. withholding tax. Neither the dividends nor the terminal value received from the U.S. investment will be subject to British income tax. Exchange rates between the GBP and USD are forecasted as follows: Year 1 GBP 0.74 = USD 1.00 Year 2 GBP 0.70 = USD 1.00 Year 3 GBP 0.60= USD 1.00 Required:

A. Determine the expected net present value of the potential U.S. investment from a parent company perspective.

On January 1, 2016, when its $30 par value common stock was selling for $80 per share, Monty Corp. issued $11,100,000 of 8% convertible debentures due in 20 years. The conversion option allowed the holder of each $1,000 bond to convert the bond into five shares of the corporation’s common stock. The debentures were issued for $11,988,000. The present value of the bond payments at the time of issuance was $9,435,000, and the corporation believes the difference between the present value and the amount paid is attributable to the conversion feature. On January 1, 2017, the corporation’s $30 par value common stock was split 2 for 1, and the conversion rate for the bonds was adjusted accordingly. On January 1, 2018, when the corporation’s $15 par value common stock was selling for $135 per share, holders of 30% of the convertible debentures exercised their conversion options. The corporation uses the straight-line method for amortizing any bond discounts or premiums. a. Prepare the entry to record the exercise of the conversion option, using the book value method.

Howarth Manufacturing Company purchased equipment on June 30, 2017, at a cost of $175,000. The residual value of the equipment was estimated to be $10,000 at the end of a five-year life. The equipment was sold on March 31, 2021, for $48,000. Howarth uses the straight-line depreciation method for all of its plant and equipment. Partial-year depreciation is calculated based on the number of months the asset is in service.

Required:
1. Prepare the journal entry to record the sale.
2. Assuming that Howarth had instead used the double-declining-balance method, prepare the journal entry to record the sale.

Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $71 per unit in two geographic regions—the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company’s first year of operations in which it produced 54,000 units and sold 49,000 units. Variable costs per unit: Manufacturing: Direct materials $ 22 Direct labor $ 12 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3 Variable selling and administrative $ 5 Fixed costs per year: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 864,000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 586,000 The company sold 36,000 units in the East region and 13,000 units in the West region. It determined that $280,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expenses is traceable to the West region, $230,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $76,000 is a common fixed cost. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product.

1. What is the company’s net operating income (loss) under absorption costing?

2. What is the amount of the difference between the variable costing and absorption costing net operating incomes (losses)?

3. What is the company’s break-even point in unit sales?

4. If the sales volumes in the East and West regions had been reversed, what would be the company’s overall break-even point in unit sales?

5. What would have been the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 49,000 units?

6. What would have been the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 49,000 units?

7. If the company produces 5,000 fewer units than it sells in its second year of operations, will absorption costing net operating income be higher or lower than variable costing net operating income in Year 2?

8. Prepare a contribution format segmented income statement that includes a Total column and columns for the East and West regions.

9. Diego is considering eliminating the West region because an internally generated report suggests the region’s total gross margin in the first year of operations was $46,000 less than its traceable fixed selling and administrative expenses. Diego believes that if it drops the West region, the East region's sales will grow by 5% in Year 2. Using the contribution approach for analyzing segment profitability and assuming all else remains constant in Year 2, what would be the profit impact of dropping the West region in Year 2?

10. Assume the West region invests $44,000 in a new advertising campaign in Year 2 that increases its unit sales by 20%. If all else remains constant, what would be the profit impact of pursuing the advertising campaign?
