Income recognition for a contractor. On October 15, 2010, Flanikin Construction Company contracted to build a shopping center at a contract price of $180 million. The schedule of expected and actual cash collections and contract costs is as follows:

Year Cash collections from Customers Estimated and Actual Cost Incurred

2010 $36,000,000 $12,000,000

2011 45,000,000 36,000,000

2012 45,000,000 48,000,000

2013 54,000,000 24,000,000

   $180,000,000 $120,000,000

A) Calculate the amount of revenue, expense, and net income for each of the four years under the following revenue recognition methods:

(1)    Percentage-of-completion method.

(2)    Completed contract method.

B) Show the journal entries Flanikin will make in 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 for this contract. Flanikin accumulates contract costs in a Contract in Process account. Although the costs involve a mixture of cash payments, credits to assets, and credits to liability accounts, assume for purposes of this problem that all costs are recorded as credits to Accounts Payable.

C) Which method do you believe provides the better measure of Flanikin Construction Company’s performance under the contract? Why?

Can somebody please show me how to calculate this in EXCEL. Step by step excel calculations need to be shown with screenshots. Thank you.

Assume that you are Tracy Roberts and you are preparing two reports to Morgan Mickelson or Household Goods, Inc.   You should answer the following questions. In one report, you assume that Morgan Mickelson is a CPA and will understand citations to the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). In this first report, you should use appropriate citations to ASC. The second report covers similar information but the assumption is that Morgan Mickelson is not a CPA and will not understand citations to ASC. You must convey the same information but in language that any businessperson would understand.

  1. What is the procedure for testing goodwill for impairment according to ASC standards?
  2. Using ASC guidelines determine the goodwill valuation for ZD Corporation. Provide numbers to support your revaluation if necessary and explain your process.
  3. Using ASC guidelines determine the goodwill valuation for Hope Industries. Provide numbers to support your revaluation if necessary and explain your process
  4. How do the above answers effect Household Goods segment information and overall financial statements?
  5. What disclosures need to be provided in Household Goods financial reports concerning goodwill according to ASC?

Assume that Household Goods will be an early adopter of the ASU 2017-04, scheduled to be adopted by publicly traded firms for fiscal years starting after Dec. 15, 2019. Also, assume that ZD and Hope are considered separate reporting units and Household Goods has not elected the Accounting alternative.

Hint: The carrying value of other asset and liability accounts must be determined before goodwill impairment is considered. You should decide what the carrying value of inventory, Property, plant and equipment, and bonds should be. After that, then you consider the valuation of goodwill.

The answers should be conveyed in a report, not just answering the questions, 1, 2, 3 etc.

You should be thorough in your answers, but as concise as possible. Each report should be around 2-3 pages. In the first report, you should use appropriate citations to ASC, but not to any other documents as other documents are not authoritative accounting guidance.

Medi Corp is a corporation that deals in the manufacturing of medical devices. It has just received a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for one of its surgical robotic knee devices. The patent is for the purpose of use in full knee replacement surgeries, which was stated on the patent’s application. For part of the manufacturing process, Medi Corp uses Tech Co. to assemble the computer components that run the robot. Tech Co. is a computer company that manufactures a lot of the computer components for several medical device companies in the U.S.

Medi Corp has been considering making a bid to acquire Tech Co. If Medi Corp acquires Tech Co., the transaction would likely be around $100 million dollars. Tech Co. is one of only three companies in the U.S. that manufactures and assembles these computer components for medical devices, and is the biggest of the three companies that offer these services, with the other two companies several million in revenue behind Tech Co. Moreover, Medi Corp. is considered a leader in medical device manufacturing in the U.S. Both companies are publicly traded companies.

Tech Co.’s board of directors are willing to approve of a merger with Medi Corp. Rebecca is on the board of directors for Tech Co. She tells her husband that he should consider purchasing Medi Corp stock. Rebecca does not tell her husband any of the confidential information of the potential merger with Medi Corp., but her husband does know that she is on the board of directors at Tech Co. and that Medi Corp is a company Tech Co. does business with. Bob is an employee of Tech Co. He has been courted by Comp Inc., one of the competitors of Tech Co.

Bob has decided to leave Tech Co. for a senior placement at Comp Inc. At Tech Co., Bob works on the manufacturing of these computer components for Medi Corp. At Comp Inc., he will be in more of a management position, determining which companies Comp Inc. should be doing business with, and managing those employees that are in the manufacturing facilities.

Please answer the following questions:

4a) Do you see any potential antitrust issues with the merger of Medi Corp and Tech Co.? Please fully explain this answer by using the appropriate U.S. statutes and any potential defenses that could be used.

4b) Do you see any potential legal issues with Rebecca and her husband if her husband purchases stock in Medi Corp before Medi Corp merges with Tech Co.? Please fully explain your answer for Rebecca’s, and her husband’s, individual situations.

4c) If Medi Corp learns that Comp Inc. is releasing a robotic surgical device for hip replacement surgery that has similar technology to its surgical robotic knee devices, does it have any recourse against Comp Inc. for patent infringement? Please fully explain your answer as to what it must prove for this complaint against Comp Inc., and any defenses Comp Inc. has against this claim. Also explain if there could be any recourse against Bob directly if Bob had originally signed a confidentiality agreement with Tech Co. when he worked for them.

1 points   

QUESTION 7
