Tristar Production Company began operations on September 1, 2018. Listed below are a number of transactions that occurred during its first four months of operations. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) On September 1, the company acquired five acres of land with a building that will be used as a warehouse. Tristar paid $250,000 in cash for the property. According to appraisals, the land had a fair value of $178,200 and the building had a fair value of $91,800. On September 1, Tristar signed a $55,000 noninterest-bearing note to purchase equipment. The $55,000 payment is due on September 1, 2019. Assume that 10% is a reasonable interest rate. On September 15, a truck was donated to the corporation. Similar trucks were selling for $4,000. On September 18, the company paid its lawyer $5,000 for organizing the corporation. On October 10, Tristar purchased maintenance equipment for cash. The purchase price was $30,000 and $1,250 in freight charges also were paid. On December 2, Tristar acquired various items of office equipment. The company was short of cash and could not pay the $7,000 normal cash price. The supplier agreed to accept 200 shares of the company's nopar common stock in exchange for the equipment. The fair value of the stock is not readily determinable. On December 10, the company acquired a tract of land at a cost of $35,000. It paid $5,000 down and signed a 12% note with both principal and interest due in one year. Twelve percent is an appropriate rate of interest for this note.

A university recruiter claims that 60% of its basketball and football players graduate in 4 years a reporter contacts an SRS of players from the past 20 yrs and finds that only 46 out of 88 had graduated in 4 yrs is there sufficient evidence to write an article disputing the university claim?

(b) Professor GeniusAtCalculus has two lecture sections (A and B) of the same 4th year Advanced Calculus (AMA 4301) course in Semester 2. She wants to investigate whether section A students maybe ”smarter” than section B students by comparing their perfor- mances in the midterm test. A random sample of 12 students were taken from section A, with mean midterm test score of 78.8 and standard deviation 8.5; and a random sample of 9 students were taken from section B, with mean midterm test score of 86 and standard deviation 9.3. Assume the population standard deviations of midterm test scores for both sections are the same. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the difference in midterm test scores of the two sections. Based on the sample midterm test scores from the two sections, can Professor GeniusAtCalculus conclude that there is any evidence that one section of students are ”smarter” than the other section? Justify your conclusions.

(c) The COVID-19 (coronavirus) mortality rate of a country is defined as the ratio of the number of deaths due to COVID-19 divided by the number of (confirmed) cases of COVID-19 in that country. Suppose we want to investigate if there is any difference between the COVID-19 mortality rate in the US and the UK. On April 18, 2020, out of a sample of 671,493 cases of COVID-19 in the US, there was 33,288 deaths; and out of a sample of 109,754 cases of COVID-19 in the UK, there was 14,606 deaths. What is the 92% confidence interval in the true difference in the mortality rates between the two countries? What can you conclude about the difference in the mortality rates between the US and the UK? Justify your conclusions.

You have just joined a company as a new staff accountant. Your company is in an acquisition mode (acquiring 5 to 10 smaller companies each of the last 4 years). You are excited to hear that you are going with an acquisition team to facilitate another acquisition (Company X). You have been instructed to sit down with Company X’s controller and explain some pre-acquisition (before the acquisition is finalized) accounting expectations.
Expectations for Company X before the acquisition is finalized.
a) Company X is expected to accelerate the payment of liabilities
b) Company X is expected to delay recording the collections of revenue
d) Company X is expected to increase the estimated amounts in reserve accounts
As you are driving to the Company X headquarters, your gut is telling you something is not right? You pull your car over and call your old classmate who is now an auditor for Ernst and Young. You explain the “expectations” and your old classmate provides the following feedback…
(Old Classmate) There are ways that the three expectations could be managed within the rules provided by GAAP, but would be regarded by many as pushing the limits of GAAP.
Not satisfied with your old classmates answer you call your old accounting professor. Your accounting professor reminds you what he used to say in class,
(Old Professor) “There are gray areas in accounting that many accountants will be influenced to step into. Often, this results in unethical behavior (at a minimum) and in many cases results in illegal acts.” “It’s a dangerous path and I recommend that you stay away from gray.”
answer the following questions…
1) What effect does each of the three items have on the reported net income of the acquired company before the acquisition and on the reported net income of the combined company in the first year of the acquisition and future years?
2) What effect does each of the three items have on the cash from operations of the acquired company before the acquisition and on the cash from operations of the combined company in the first year of the acquisition and future years?
3) If you are the controller of Company X, how would you respond to these suggestions?
