Elvis Inc. is planning to establish a subsidiary in Australia to produce canola oil. The manufacturing facility will cost the parent company an initial investment of 5 million U.S. dollars (US$) to set up. The project will end in 3 years. At the end of the project, Elvis will sell the Australian subsidiary for A$8 million to an Australian agriculture firm. This amount is net of capital gain tax and is not subject to the withholding tax. Elvis estimates the after-tax net cash flows are A$6,400,000, A$3,000,000, and A$5,900,000 at the end of the first, second and third year, respectively. The Australian government will impose a corporate tax of 27% and a withholding tax of 19% on remitted funds. Additionally, the Australian law requires the subsidiary to operate locally at least for 3 years before it can remit earnings to its parent company. The parent's required rate of return for the Australian project is 10%. Suppose that the subsidiary can invest at 5% p.a. in Australia throughout the project duration and the exchange rate for the Australian dollar would remain unchanged at $0.141 throughout the project duration. Conduct a capital budgeting analysis to determine the feasibility of this project by completing the table below.

A lawsuit has been filed against XYZ Company. As year-end, the company’s attorney believes that there is an 85% likelihood that the company will be found liable. The attorney believes that the estimated range of the liability is between $50,000 and $150,000 and that all amounts within the range are equally likely. In addition, the company has announced a restructuring plan prior to year-end that has created a valid expectation on the part of the employees to be terminated with an estimated liability of $500,000. As of year-end, there is currently no legal obligation to make any payments to the terminated employees. Lastly, the Company issued stock options with a fair value of $200,000 on January 1st with a 2 year vesting schedule.

He/she shows some signs of depression and confides in you that he/she has contemplated suicide. How can you help your friend? Who would you contact first? Where on campus might your friend get help?

The wife was willing to liquidate their assets in order to fund additional life support for her husband in the hope that he would regain consciousness at some point. However, doctors at the hospital were debating whether or not the wife had sufficient mental capacity to make an informed decision regarding her husband’s care. You are one of the doctors at that hospital who serve on the medical ethics team. Give your recommendation incorporating Dr. Hopkins’s lecture on the conflicts in the social psychology of paternalism and public health care.

BOR CPAs, Inc. is a closely held corporation owned by three stockholders who used the initials of their last names to form the corporation’s name: Cyrus Bailey, John Ogden, and Samuel Rogers. The firm’s Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) perform audits of both public companies and privately owned companies. BOR’s CPAs also provide tax services to both individuals and businesses.
The corporation is divided into two profit centers: the Audit Division and the Tax Division. Each division is composed of two cost centers. The Audit Division is composed of two cost-center departments: Public Company Audits and Private Company Audits. The Tax Division is composed of two cost-center departments also: Individual Tax and Business Tax.
BOR, a decentralized organization, is interested in evaluating the performance of the two divisions. The stockholders are responsible for deciding on investment in the two divisions. Cyrus Bailey is in charge of the performance evaluation, and turns to you for assistance. Mr. Bailey is only interested in evaluating operations at the profit center (division) level, and not at the cost center (department) level.
Mr. Bailey is considering temporarily using some of the staff from the Tax Division to assist the Audit Division during the upcoming busy audit season, and would like to evaluate the effect of this on net income. The Tax Division is estimated to have 800 hours of excess capacity.
The unit for determining sales revenue in both divisions is the "engagement", which means the total agreed-upon work for a given client in either audit or tax for a given year. The company charges on average a fee of $75,000 per audit engagement, and $15,750 per tax engagement.
The company has its own Payroll Office, which provides payroll services to both divisions and will allocate its total expenses to the two divisions as service department charges.
The following chart shows some basic data for the company:
| Hourly market rate for staff (the price the company would have to pay from an outside contractor for staff services) | $110.00 |
| Average hourly cost rate for staff (the average price the company pays to its staff) | $60.00 |
| Number of paychecks issued by Audit Division | 110 |
| Number of paychecks issued by Tax Division | 340 |
| Total expense for Payroll Office | $31,500 |
| Amount of assets invested in Audit Division by BOR CPAs, Inc. | $10,000,000 |
| Amount of assets invested in Tax Division by BOR CPAs, Inc. | $4,000,000 |
Mr. Bailey would like you to start by analyzing the Payroll Office expenses, and allocating the total expenses to each division. He has decided to use the number of payroll checks as the activity base for the allocation.
Fill in the following blanks, allocating the total expense for the Payroll Office to each of the two divisions.
| Payroll Charge Rate | per payroll check |
| Division | Allocated Service Department Charges |
| Audit Division | |
| Tax Division |
Mr. Bailey has prepared the following divisional income statement for you to review, assuming no transfer of excess capacity hours occurs. He has also included the total amounts for BOR CPAs, Inc. in the rightmost column.
Complete the following Income Statements with your data from the Payroll panel. Enter all amounts as positive numbers.

Mr. Bailey asks that you prepare Divisional Income Statements showing what 20Y1 results would have been had the Audit Division purchased all the excess capacity of the Tax Division, using a market transfer price. The divisional managers tell you that, with the excess capacity of the Tax Division of 800 hours, the Audit Division can perform 4 more audits during the year, and the Tax Division would charge the Audit Division the market rate of $110.00 per hour for the additional hours required, selling all its excess capacity to the Audit Division. The Tax Division would still be responsible for paying the salaries of their employees.
Complete the following Income Statements. Enter all amounts as positive numbers. If there is no amount or an amount is zero, enter “0”.
