Upon first proposal at the Constitutional Convention the Bill of Rights were unanimously defeated. Some believed that the federal government did not have the power to infringe upon their basic liberties in the first place, and they had concerns over the possibility of forgetting to include something important. If they did create a list it could possibly restrain them from claiming any rights not included. Others pointed out that state constitutions already provided these protections, and argued that they were redundant and unnecessary. In your opinion was the Bill of Rights a necessary addition to the Constitution? Can you identify any rights that are not included that you believe should have been? Defend your answer.

Business (Ethics) and the use of Normative Theories.

Question 1.

You've been engaged by an IT company (Coastal IT) as an independent Ethics Consultant. Coastal IT's ethic problem is: They have moved all their technical and support rescources to an off shore company based in India to reduce costs.

b) Discuss the application of that theory? (Approx 200 words).

Consider the hypothetical heteronuclear diatomic molecule XY where Y is more electronegative than X. Using only the p orbitals from each atom, construct a molecular orbital diagram. For each unique type of bond and anti-bond, sketch a picture of the molecular orbital resulting from the mixing of the atomic orbitals. Redundant molecular orbitals (i.e. those that only differ in orientation) need not be drawn. What is the bond order when there are 6 total electrons (X+Y p electrons)? Is that molecule paramagnetic or diamagnetic? What happens to the bond order if you add 1 more electron (7 total electrons)? Is that molecule paramagnetic or diamagnetic?

2. On February 1, 2018, Sun Devil Company purchased land for a warehouse & distribution center for $540,000. To help finance the land and construction of the distribution center, $1,725,000 was borrowed on February 1, 2018 on a 9%, 3-year note payable, with interest payable annually every February 1st. Sun Devil began construction on the facility on March 1st. The following expenditures were incurred for construction:
March 1 $ 360,000
May 1 $ 504,000
June 1 $ 900,000
August 1 $1,440,000
The facility was completed and ready for occupancy on August 31st. Other than the construction note, the only debt outstanding during 2018 was a $500,000, 12%, 6-year note payable dated January 1, 2017.
a. Determine the Weighted Average Accumulated Expenditures: $___________________________

b. Using the information presented in #2 above, determine the Avoidable Interest: $_____________________
c. Using the information presented in #2 above, determine the historical cost Sun Devil should report for the warehouse & distribution center: $______________________________
d. formation presented in #2 above, determine Interest Expense for the year ended December 31, 2018: $_____________________________
e. If instead of having $500,000 of non-specific borrowing in #2 above, suppose Sun Devil only had $75,000 of other long-term debt at 12% that was dated January 1, 2017. In this case, what amount of interest cost should be capitalized? $_______________________

The following notes are relevant:
(a) Sales include goods sold and dispatched in September 2018 on a 30-day right of return basis. Their selling
price was GHS4.8m and they were sold at a gross profit margin of 25%. In the past, Golden Ltd’s
customers have always met their obligations under this type of agreement.
(b) Non-current assets:
In the course of the year, Golden Ltd produced an item of equipment for its own use. The direct materials
for the equipment cost GHS6m and the labour cost GHS8m. Manufacturing overheads are 50% of direct
labour cost and Golden Ltd determines the final selling price for goods by adding a mark-up on total cost
of 40%. The direct materials, labour and overheads are included in the relevant expense items in the trial
balance. The equipment was completed and was put to use on 1 July 2018.
All plant and equipment is depreciated at 25% per annum using the straight line method with time
apportionment in the year of acquisition.
The management of Golden revalued the leased property in line with recent increases in market values. On
1 October 2017 an independent architect valued the leased property at GHS96m, which the management
agreed to. The leased property had an original useful life of 20 years which has not changed. Revaluation
surplus is realised over the life of the leased property. The revaluation surplus will give rise to a deferred
tax liability (see Note f).
All amortisation and depreciation is charged to cost of sales. No amortisation or depreciation has yet been
charged on any non-current asset for the year ended 30 September 2018.
(c) In July 2018, the share price of Golden Ltd stood at GHS2.40 per share. On this date, Golden Ltd paid an
interim dividend (included in administrative expenses) that was computed to give a dividend yield of 4%.
(d) Closing inventory on 30 September 2018 was valued at GHS109.6m.
(e) The equity investments had a fair value of GHS34.8m on 30 September 2018. During the year there were
no purchases or disposals of any of these investments.
(f) A provision for income tax for the year ended 30th September 2018 of GHS48.6m is required. At 30th
September 2018, the tax base of Golden Ltd's net assets was GHS30m less than their carrying amounts.
This excludes the effects of the revaluation of the leased property. The income tax rate of Golden Ltd is
30%.
Required:
Prepare the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statement of financial position
and the statement of changes in equity for Golden Ltd for the year ended 30th September 2018.
