On December 31, 2018, Isiah Company, a financing institution lent P4,000,000 to Psalms Corp. due 3 years after. The loan is supported by an 8% note receivable. Transaction costs incurred to originate the loan amounted to P248,000. P374,000 was chargeable to Psalms as origination fees. Interests on the loan are collectible at the end of each year. The yield rate on the loan is 9.25%.

Isiah was able to collect interest as it became due at the end of 2019. During 2020, however, due to Psalms Corporation’s business deterioration and due to political instability and faltering global economy, the company was not able to collect amounts due at the end 2020. After reviewing all available evidence at December 31, 2020, Isiah Company determined that it was probable that Psalms would pay back only P3,400,000 collectible as follows:

December 31, 2022

1,400,000

December 31, 2023

1,000,000

December 31, 2024

600,000

December 31, 2025

400,000

As of December 31, 2020, the prevailing rate of interest for all debt instruments is 14%.

Neon Corporation’s stock returns have a covariance with the market portfolio of .0345. The standard deviation of the returns on the market portfolio is 25 percent, and the expected market risk premium is 8.8 percent. The company has bonds outstanding with a total market value of $55.13 million and a yield to maturity of 7.8 percent. The company also has 4.63 million shares of common stock outstanding, each selling for $23. The company’s CEO considers the current debt–equity ratio optimal. The corporate tax rate is 34 percent, and Treasury bills currently yield 4.7 percent. The company is considering the purchase of additional equipment that would cost $42.13 million. The expected unlevered cash flows from the equipment are $11.93 million per year for five years. Purchasing the equipment will not change the risk level of the company.

  

Calculate the NPV of the project. (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Cybernetronics Inc. (Cyber) is a Canadian-owned public company which designs and manufactures communications and control systems. The company's year end is May 31. It is now June 2018.

You, CPA, are the manager for the audit of Cyber and yesterday had met with the treasurer to discuss the year-end audit. The partner responsible for this client has asked you to prepare a report for the client which discusses important financial accounting issues and a memo to him regarding the audit issues you believe are important.

Notes from the Meeting with the Treasurer

  1.          In December 2017, Cyber won a $40 million contract to design autonomous robots for use in mining activities. In April 2018, the customer exercised the cancellation clause included in the contract. Cyber has capitalized design and development costs related to this contract. The cancellation clause requires the mining company to pay a penalty of $12 million. The penalty has not yet been paid to Cyber.

In June 2017, Cyber entered into an agreement with a university whereby Cyber received assistance in the development of fuzzy logic software which was to have been used in the robots designed for the contract with the mining company. The agreement requires Cyber to make an annual contribution of $0.5 million to the university for four years. The first payment of $0.5 million was made in March 2018 when the university's work was completed.

Management of Cyber is confident that the technology developed, including the fuzzy logic software, can be applied to future contracts involving the design of robots.

Cyber entered into a five-year lease on June 1, 2017 for facilities dedicated to the design and future manufacture of the robots for the mining company. Management of Cyber is presently negotiating a buy-out of the lease and has offered to make lump-sum payment of $750,000 to the lessor on September 1, 2018. The annual lease payment is $500,000.

The draft balance sheet prepared for Cyber's May 31 year end included capitalized design and development costs in the amount of $8.2 million. This amount includes the $0.5 million paid to the university. The draft income statement includes the $12 million cancellation penalty as 'other income -- gain on cancellation of contract'.

His latest project, One Laptop per Child, plans to build $100 laptops that he hopes to put in the hands of millions of children in developing countries around the globe. The XO (the "$100 laptop") is a wireless, Internet-enabled, pedal-powered computer costing roughly $100. What types of competitive advantages could children gain from Negroponte's $100 laptop? What types of issues could result from the $100 laptop? Explain each of the efficiency metrics and effectiveness metrics that are required for each laptop to be considered successful.
