She looked at my calculations and said they were wrong, so only the calculations need to be redone. So, you'd look at the Apple pdf.'s, and compare the numbers to my Apple calculations page, and recalculate. Be sure to keep the old answers there, and show recalculations in red

For your second project, you will print the Income Statement and Balance Sheet of a real corporation and calculate ratios using financial items from them.

Instructions:

  1. Print off the income statement and balance sheet of a publicly traded corporation. Use Marketwatch.com:
    • type the ticker or company name in the “search” box
    • select ‘Financials’ from the menu
    • Print your company’s financial statements, selecting “annual data,” not “quarterly data.”

  1. On a separate piece of paper, show me your calculations for the most current year for the following ratios:

Current Ratio (1:1)

Debt Ratio (%)

Hand in:

  1. The two statements (the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet) you printed off, stapled to
  2. The ratio calculations page – include on this page the name of the company for which you are calculating ratios.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apple Calculations From Balance Sheet info

Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities

1.36B Current Ratio = -338.52B Current Assets /248.03 Current Liabilities

Debt Ratio = Total Debt/Total Assets

-9.85% = 73.27% Total Debt /-7.44% Total Assets

BUS1 121B – Intermediate Accounting II

Respond to the following prompt

Ten years down the road, you go to work as the controller of a start-up tech company that received its second major round of funding about a year ago and is searching for its third round of funding in order to continue to grow. However, the company is struggling to adequately compensate its employees and is concerned about losing high-quality talent to larger, better-funded competitors. It has previously established a generous share-based compensation plan in which employees receive equity stakes in the firm in addition to normal salary, but given that the firm is a long way from going public many of the employees see the share-based compensation as valueless.

As such, the firm has established a new compensation plan wherein each employee receives, in addition to their normal stock grants of 20,000 shares per year, they receive an additional set of grant each year of 25,000 shares that vest on a graded basis of 25% per semi-annual period over the next two years and which, one year after full vesting, the firm promises to repurchase the grant at the greater of either $5 per share or the market price of the shares, if the equity is publicly traded at that time.

How should the firm account for the traditional equity-based compensation plan and the new compensation plan? Cite ASC where appropriate.
