F- You are working on a bid to build two city parks a year for the next three years. This project requires the purchase of $249,000 of equipment that will be depreciated using straight-line depreciation to a zero book value over the three-year project life. Ignore bonus depreciation. The equipment can be sold at the end of the project for $115,000. You will also need $18,000 in net working capital for the duration of the project. The fixed costs will be $37,000 a year and the variable costs will be $148,000 per park. Your required rate of return is 14 percent and your tax rate is 21 percent. What is the minimal amount you should bid per park? (Round your answer to the nearest $100)

31. Consider two ways of protecting elephants from poachers in African countries. In one approach, the government sets up enormous national parks that have sufficient habitat for elephants to thrive and forbids all local people to enter the parks or to injure either the elephants or their habitat in any way. In a second approach, the government sets up national parks and designates 10 villages around the edges of the park as official tourist centers that become places where tourists can stay and bases for guided tours inside the national park. Consider the different incentives of local villagers—who often are very poor—in each of these plans. Which plan seems more likely to help the elephant population?

What are GASB requirements for bonded debt?

Town Oaks’ residents want to start a fund to improve their local community. Town Oaks, a gated community, has voted to create a neighborhood park with bonded debt. The bonds will be repaid by the residents and the following transactions are related to park debt:

• The community has a tax burden for the park of $5,000,000, which is imposed on January 1, 20X7.

• Payments start at the beginning of the current year and will be paid in 10 equal annual payments.

• 5% interest is due on the unpaid installments.

• Payments and interest on the unpaid payments was collected by December 31, 20X7.

• A small amount of the assessed receivables was reclassified to current in the amount of 20X8 installments.

• The initial principal payment of $500,000 and the interest on the debt was paid to bondholders on January 1, 20X8.

Required:

• Identify the type of fund the city should impose to account for this special assessed debt.

• Prepare journal entries for the city’s transactions.

• Identify how the city should report the fund in their financial statements?

• Identify how the city should report special assessed debt in their financial statements? •

Compare the treatments of special assessed debt from the United States with at least two other countries. Would the same reporting practices be used and why?

Kodak Fails to Focus on the Big Picture

The closing case focuses on Kodak and their failure to innovate through the transition from analog to digital technology. It appears Kodak had the resources to innovate and they recognized the coming transition but incorrectly evaluated the needs and desires of the consumer. In addition, members of the company feared change and resisted change efforts. For these reasons, Kodak went from a top 20 Fortune 500 company to bankruptcy in 2012.

Management Update: There are signs Kodak may survive. During bankruptcy, Kodak put Eastman Park up for sale. Eastman Park is a giant industrial complex built in the early 1900s to meet demand for the company’s photographic and film products. In 2015, the company took the park off the market and turned it into a separate company division. With a focus on clean technology, over 60 companies have key operations on the site.

Case Question: Explain how – theoretically, anyway – making “change innovations” in each of the following Areas of Organizational Change might have helped Kodak ease the severity of the conditions that led it to bankruptcy and the challenges facing it now that it’s emerged from bankruptcy:  changing organization structure and design, changing people and attitudes, and changing processes.
