Top Quality Food Ltd. (TQF) is a medium-sized private food-processing company founded more than twenty years ago by Ray Smith. TQF is located in Newmarket and mainly provides frozen chicken, pork, and beef products to grocery stores and restaurants in the greater Toronto area and its surroundings. Ray is the CEO and sole common shareholder of the company. In recent decades, consumers pursue healthy lifestyle and tend to eat less meat but more fruits and vegetables. In noticing this market trend, Ray decided to add a new product line to produce frozen fruits. Ray approached Meridian Credit Union in early 2020 for a long-term loan to finance its planned new product line. After carefully reviewing TQF’s business plan, Meridian agreed to finance the purchase of new equipments for the new product line in processing and packaging frozen fruits, and the new equipment will be used as the loan collateral. Meridian also imposes a debt to equity ratio of not more than 1 to 1 for the loan, and requires audited financial statements from TQF every year. Ray agreed to satisfy all of Meridian’s requests, and in the fall of 2020, he hired Sherman LLP as the auditor for TQF. As a staff accountant of Sherman, your supervisor asked you to take care of the TQF account. December 31, 2020 will be the first year end which TQF will be audited. TQF’s earnings in recent years have averaged $ 300,000. In a recent meeting with Ray, he asked you to comment on the relevant accounting policies regarding the transactions which you have noted below:

1. Ray used the money from issuing preferred share (as stated in 6b above) to help finance a $ 120,000 acquisition of common shares in Spring Farm (SF) that produces blueberry, strawberry, peach and cherry. TQF will now own 25% of SF. SF will be a primary supplier of those fruits mentioned above for TQF’s new product line. Ray explained: “this vertical integration is critical for the growth of our business! Otherwise I will have to pay about $ 10,000 more if I buy from other suppliers. This deal is a big help with cash flow, and it also helps us to secure the supply which can be volatile depending on the weather.”

Mr. C is a 22 year old, white, single, male who is in his third year at a local university in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He is majoring in Philosophy and American studies. When he is not in school he lives with his parents.

He has been taken to the mental health center for an evaluation today, brought by his parents who were concerned after he was demonstrating “strange” behaviors and then abruptly dropped out of school after he failed his summer class. This baffled the parents since he has always been an A and B student. Up until three months ago he seemed to be doing okay. He was living in the dorms and there were no reports he was doing poorly. When asked why he dropped out of school, he stated the administration of the school was watching and targeting him for being a suspected spy for another university.

He stated the professor of his philosophy class warned him of this in a coded message on one of his powerpoints. None of the other students noticed this, but the message was clear to him. He also verbalized he could hear the students laugh at him behind his back. Additionally, he began hearing two voices, which he did not recognize. These voices would comment on his behavior and criticize his actions. They were telling him to drop out of school because if he didn’t the administration was going to make a public spectacle of him.

He stated he smoked a little bit of pot when he was in high school, but didn’t like it because it made him feel weird. He also didn’t like the taste of alcohol. He grew up in an upper middle class environment. His mother is an attorney working in real estate law and his father is a professor in the English department of another university in New Mexico. They stated he has always been very intelligent and always a little shy, but not overly so. He spent a lot of time alone, but his parents didn’t consider him to be a “loner” since he occasionally had one or two friends. He didn’t like to go to parties or places where there were large gatherings. The parents did not see this as odd and were glad he was keeping away from trouble. He joined a couple of youth groups in his adolescence which were tied to his church, but dropped out after he felt they were pressuring him to change his beliefs.

When the social worker entered the room to begin the evaluation, Mr. C asked her if she worked for the administration and asked to see her credentials. He was disheveled in appearance, wearing a dirty wrinkled shirt--which was different from his past habits, according to the parents. He always prided himself on being clean and neat. He was slightly agitated and during the interview got up from his chair several times. His thinking, at times, was tangential with some loosening of associations. He denied any suicidal or homicidal ideation. His only previous psychiatric history was outpatient treatment he attended with his family in a family therapy session. This occurred when he was around 15 y.o. when his parents were thinking of getting a divorce. The parents did not divorce and have remained together. The father did state one of his brothers was hospitalized for psychiatric reasons in Colorado several years ago, and didn’t know the circumstances.

Based on the above vignette for Case #1, list the principal diagnosis/diagnoses (including any and all appropriate subtypes and specifiers)

You're a consultant hired by a small company that installs GPS units in semi trucks and school buses. the company is considering investing in a project to manufacture the units themselves (instead of purchasing the new units). they've used their weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of 15 percent to determine that the project has a positive NPV of $3,000.

The CFO and CEO dont agree. the CEO doesnt believe that the WACC is the correct number because the project is risky: its a brand-new venture. The CFO argues that the WACC alread incorporates risk, and the cost of new funds at the source (debt and equity financing) is the only thing that matters.

A. what is WACC? whats the formula?who is correct? why?

B. WHat are two different approaches to determine an appropriate cost of capital that appriately accounts for the different risk? Walk us through the steps in how youwould you proceed. (keep in mind theres more than one correct answer) then identify an advantage and disadvantage of each of these approaches. Lastly, how would you determine if this project should be accepted or erejected ? (no actual computations are needed)

Assume you are pursuing a bachelor’s degree and you have 40 hours to divide between work and school in a week. You choose the amount of time you spend on each based on the classes you take and the hours you request at work. The degree will take you 3 years to complete if you dedicate 40 hours a week and do not take summers off. Obviously, if you devote no time to school, you never get your degree.
