-What does this tell you about the company? Did sales increase or decrease? What about cost of sales? If you were going to look further into the company, what would you want to investigate?

Alsup Consulting sometimes performs services for which it receives payment at the conclusion of the engagement, up to six months after services commence.

Why is there a need for three Financial Accounting Ratings Agencies? Are these agencies measuring the same

attributes? If not, what are the critical differences between these agencies? please elaborate

What is accounts receivable? What is notes receivable and how are they different than accounts receivable? How do creditors decide to extend credit to their customers? What processes do credit managers use to evaluate new customers? Now explain the allowance for doubtful accounts and provide examples.

QualCo manufactures a single product in two departments: Cutting and Assembly. During May, the Cutting department completed a number of units of a product and transferred them to Assembly. Of these transferred units, 37,700 were in process in the Cutting department at the beginning of May and 153,800 were started and completed in May. May’s Cutting department beginning inventory units were 70% complete with respect to materials and 30% complete with respect to conversion. At the end of May, 51,500 additional units were in process in the Cutting department and were 70% complete with respect to materials and 20% complete with respect to conversion. The Cutting department had $462,668 of direct materials and $400,029 of conversion cost charged to it during May. Its beginning inventory included $74,275 of direct materials cost and $28,693 of conversion cost.

1. Compute the number of units transferred to Assembly.

2-4. Using the FIFO method, assign May’s costs to the units transferred out and assign costs to its ending work in process inventory. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)

Question 2 - 1,500 words

The Senior Partner of the firm you work for has appointed you to a new role. It is now your responsibility to review upcoming accounting standards and provide a report to the partners on the proposed standard and the opinions of other industry players on the changes.

Firstly, you are required to find a current exposure draft or proposal for a new accounting standard which has been opened for public comments. (These can be found on the websites of most standard-setting organisations, such as the IASB, AASB and FASB. Hint: These websites can be quite difficult to navigate, so as a first step try typing “IASB exposure draft and comment letters”/”FASB exposure draft and comment letters” into Google or other search engine of your choice). Read a sample of the comments from a range of respondents. Select four respondents, ideally from different types of organisations for example, from accounting bodies, industry, companies or corporate bodies. If you are having a problem finding suitable comments letters then contact your subject coordinator.

In your own words, supporting your evaluation with appropriate citations, appropriately referenced in APA 6 style, you are required to include the following information in the report.

• An outline of the major issues covered in the exposure draft (what is the exposure draft introducing or changing?).
• An assessment as to whether (or not) the behaviour of the regulator in introducing the exposure draft can be explained by public interest theory.
• An outline of the views presented in the comments letters which highlights the areas of agreement and disagreement with the exposure draft.
• An application of each of the theories of regulation (public interest, private interest and capture) to the comments letters and a justification as to which theory(ies) best explains the comments.

Please note: you need to attach the comment letters you selected for your report (there is no need to attach the exposure draft

Thank you.

Dublin Chips is a manufacturer of prototype chips based in​ Buffalo, New York.

Next​ year, in 2018​, Dublin Chips expects to deliver 615 prototype chips at an average price of $95,000. Dublin ​Chips' marketing vice president forecasts growth of 65 prototype chips per year through 2024.

That​ is, demand will be 615 in 2018​, 680 in 2019​, 745 in 2020​, and so on. The plant cannot produce more than 585 prototype chips annually. To meet future​ demand, Dublin Chips must either modernize the plant or replace it. The old equipment is fully depreciated and can be sold for $4,200,000 if the plant is replaced. If the plant is​ modernized, the costs to modernize it are to be capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the updated plant. The old equipment is retained as part of the modernize alternative.

The following data on the two options are​ available:

	Modernize		Replace
Initial investment in 2018	$35,300,000		$66,300,000
Terminal disposal value in 2024	$7,500,000		$16,000,000
Useful life	7 years		7 years
Total annual cash operating cost per prototype chip	$78,500		$66,000

Dublin Chips uses​ straight-line depreciation, assuming zero terminal disposal value. For​ simplicity, we assume no change in prices or costs in future years. The investment will be made at the beginning of 2018​, and all transactions thereafter occur on the last day of the year. Dublin ​Chips' required rate of return is 14​%. There is no difference between the modernize and replace alternatives in terms of required working capital. Dublin Chips pays a 35​% tax rate on all income. Proceeds from sales of equipment above book value are taxed at the same 35​% rate.

1.	Calculate the​ after-tax cash inflows and outflows of the modernize and replace alternatives over the 2018 -2024 period.
2.	Calculate the net present value of the modernize and replace alternatives.
3.	Suppose Dublin Chips is planning to build several more plants. It wants to have the most advantageous tax position possible.Dublin Chips has been approached by​ Spain, Malaysia, and Australia to construct plants in their countries. Briefly describe in qualitative terms the income tax features that would be advantageous to Dublin Chips.

​Let's begin with the modernize alternative. Start by computing the present value of the​after-tax cash flows from​ operations, then calculate the present value of the​ after-tax cash savings from depreciation and the terminal disposal​ value, and​ finally, determine the total net present value​ (NPV) of the investment for the modernize alternative.
