QUESTION:

Expensing of employee stock options (ESOs) is now a requirement in financial reporting both under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. However, management, especially in the United States, successfully resisted expensing for many years before the expensing rules were finally adopted. Even now, accounting for ESOs remain a controversial topic.

Required

a) Discuss the effect of this asymmetric feature of ESOs on managers’ incentive to undertake risky projects. In other words, do these features lead to managers undertaking high-risk projects or low-risk projects?

DETAIL ANSWER. SHORT ANWERS WILL BE REJECTED

Oscar Clemente is the manager of Forbes Division of Pitt, Inc., a manufacturer of biotech products. Forbes Division, which has $4.15 million in assets, manufactures a special testing device. At the beginning of the current year, Forbes invested $5.07 million in automated equipment for test machine assembly. The division’s expected income statement at the beginning of the year was as follows:

Sales revenue	$	16,160,000
Operating costs
Variable		2,000,000
Fixed (all cash)		7,560,000
Depreciation
New equipment		1,540,000
Other		1,290,000
Division operating profit	$	3,770,000

A sales representative from LSI Machine Company approached Oscar in October. LSI has for $6.06 million a new assembly machine that offers significant improvements over the equipment Oscar bought at the beginning of the year. The new equipment would expand division output by 10 percent while reducing cash fixed costs by 5 percent. It would be depreciated for accounting purposes over a three-year life. Depreciation would be net of the $531,000 salvage value of the new machine. The new equipment meets Pitt's 12 percent cost of capital criterion. If Oscar purchases the new machine, it must be installed prior to the end of the year. For practical purposes, though, Oscar can ignore depreciation on the new machine because it will not go into operation until the start of the next year.

The old machine, which has no salvage value, must be disposed of to make room for the new machine.

Pitt has a performance evaluation and bonus plan based on residual income. Pitt uses a cost of capital of 12 percent in computing residual income. Income includes any losses on disposal of equipment. Investment is computed based on the end-of-year balance of assets, net book value. Ignore taxes.

Required:

a. What is Forbes Division’s residual income if Oscar does not acquire the new machine? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar.)

residual income

b. What is Forbes Division’s residual income this year if Oscar acquires the new machine? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar.)

residual income

c. If Oscar acquires the new machine and operates it according to specifications, what residual income is expected for next year? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar.)

Old Country Links, Inc., produces sausages in three production departments—Mixing, Casing and Curing, and Packaging. In the Mixing Department, meats are prepared and ground and then mixed with spices. The spiced meat mixture is then transferred to the Casing and Curing Department, where the mixture is force-fed into casings and then hung and cured in climate-controlled smoking chambers. In the Packaging Department, the cured sausages are sorted, packed, and labeled. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data for September for the Casing and Curing Department follow:

       Percent Completed
   Units    Mixing    Materials    Conversion
Work in process inventory, September 1    10    100    %    60    %    50    %
Work in process inventory, September 30    10    100    %    20    %    10    %

Case 2-22 Plantwide versus Departmental Overhead Rates; Pricing [LO2-1, LO2-2, LO2-3, LO2-4]

“Blast it!” said David Wilson, president of Teledex Company. “We’ve just lost the bid on the Koopers job by $2,000. It seems we’re either too high to get the job or too low to make any money on half the jobs we bid.”

Teledex Company manufactures products to customers’ specifications and uses a job-order costing system. The company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor cost to apply its manufacturing overhead (assumed to be all fixed) to jobs. The following estimates were made at the beginning of the year:

	Department
	Fabricating		Machining		Assembly		Total Plant
Manufacturing overhead	$	350,000	$	400,000	$	90,000	$	840,000
Direct labor	$	200,000	$	100,000	$	300,000	$	600,000

Jobs require varying amounts of work in the three departments. The Koopers job, for example,
would have required manufacturing costs in the three departments as follows:

	Department
	Fabricating			Machining			Assembly			Total Plant
Direct materials	$	3,000		$	200		$	1,400		$	4,600
Direct labor	$	2,800		$	500		$	6,200		$	9,500
Manufacturing overhead		?			?			?			?

Required:

1. Using the company's plantwide approach:

a.Compute the plantwide predetermined rate for the current year.

b.Determine the amount of manufacturing overhead cost that would have been applied to the Koopers job.

2. Suppose that instead of using a plantwide predetermined overhead rate, the company had used departmental predetermined overhead rates based on direct labor cost. Under these conditions:

a.Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each department for the current year.

b.Determine the amount of manufacturing overhead cost that would have been applied to the Koopers job.

4. Assume that it is customary in the industry to bid jobs at 150% of total manufacturing cost (direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead).

a.What was the company’s bid price on the Koopers job using a plantwide predetermined overhead rate?

b.What would the bid price have been if departmental predetermined overhead rates had been used to apply overhead cost?
