Balance Sheet (partial)
(in millions) 2020 2019
Cash and cash equivalents $ 358 $ 403
Accounts receivable (net) 1,788 684 Inventory 957 997
Prepaid expenses 78 61
Other current assets 181 597
Total current assets $3,362 $2,742
Total current liabilities $1,350 $1,433
Compute liquidity ratios and compare results. For the year 2020, net sales were $8,828, and cost of goods sold was $5,862 (in millions). Instructions
(a) Compute the four liquidity ratios at the end of the year
1 Current ratio of 2019 = current assets/ current liabilities
= $2,742 / $1,433
= $1.91
Current ratio of 2020 = current assets/ current liabilities
= $3,363 / $1,350
= $2.49
2 Acid test (quick) ratio of 2019 = quick assets/ quick liabilities
= ($403 + $684)/ $1,433
= $0.76
Acid test (quick) ratio of 2020 = quick assets/ quick liabilities
= ($ 358+1,788 )/ $1,350
= $1.58
3 Inventory turnover of 2019 = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory
Inventory turnover of 2020 = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory
= $5,862 /((1,788 +684)/2)
= $6.12
4 Account time receivable = net sale / average account receivable
= $8,828/ ((1,788 +684)/2)
=7.14

Metlock Financial Services performs bookkeeping and tax-reporting services to startup companies in the Oconomowoc area. On January 1, 2020, Metlock entered into a 3-year service contract with Walleye Tech. Walleye promises to pay $10,700 at the beginning of each year, which at contract inception is the standalone selling price for these services. At the end of the second year, the contract is modified and the fee for the third year of services is reduced to $8,600. In addition, Walleye agrees to pay an additional $21,400 at the beginning of the third year to cover the contract for 3 additional years (i.e., 4 years remain after the modification). The extended contract services are similar to those provided in the first 2 years of the contract.
Prepare the journal entries for Metlock in 2020 and 2021 related to this service contract. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Prepare the journal entries for Metlock in 2022 related to the modified service contract, assuming a prospective approach. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Repeat the requirements for part (b), assuming Metlock and Walleye agree on a revised set of services (fewer bookkeeping services but more tax services) in the extended contract period and the modification results in a separate performance obligation. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)

During 2019 (its first year of operations) and 2020, Fieri Foods
used the FIFO inventory costing method for both financial reporting
and tax purposes. At the beginning of 2021, Fieri decided to change
to the average method for both financial reporting and tax
purposes.
Income components before income tax for 2019, 2020, and 2021 were
as follows:
| ($ in millions) | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | ||||||
| Revenues | $ | 580 | $ | 590 | $ | 620 | |||
| Cost of goods sold (FIFO) | (58 | ) | (60 | ) | (66 | ) | |||
| Cost of goods sold (average) | (92 | ) | (96 | ) | (102 | ) | |||
| Operating expenses | (322 | ) | (330 | ) | (334 | ) | |||
Dividends of $39 million were paid each year. Fieri’s fiscal year ends December 31.
Required:
1. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of
2021 to record the change in accounting principle. (Ignore income
taxes.)
2. Prepare the 2021–2020 comparative income
statements.
3. & 4. Determine the balance in retained
earnings at January 1, 2020 as Fieri reported using FIFO method and
determine the adjustment of balance in retained earnings as on
January 1, 2020 using average method instead of FIFO method.
For financial reporting, Clinton Poultry Farms has used the
declining-balance method of depreciation for conveyor equipment
acquired at the beginning of 2018 for $2,800,000. Its useful life
was estimated to be six years with a $220,000 residual value. At
the beginning of 2021, Clinton decides to change to the
straight-line method. The effect of this change on depreciation for
each year is as follows:
| ($ in thousands) | |||||||||||||
| Year | Straight-Line | Declining Balance | Difference | ||||||||||
| 2018 | $ | 430 | $ | 933 | $ | 503 | |||||||
| 2019 | 430 | 622 | 192 | ||||||||||
| 2020 | 430 | 415 | (15 | ) | |||||||||
| $ | 1,290 | $ | 1,970 | $ | 680 | ||||||||
Required:
2. Prepare any 2021 journal entry related to the

DaimlerChrysler Corp. made and marketed motor vehicles. DaimlerChrysler assembled the 1993 and 1994 model years of its trucks at plants in Mexico. Assembly involved sheet metal components sent from the United States. DaimlerChrysler subjected some of the parts to a complicated treatment process, which included the application of coats of paint to prevent corrosion, impart color, and protect the finish. Under federal law, goods that are assembled abroad using U.S.-made parts can be imported tariff free. A federal statute provides that painting is “incidental” to assembly and does not affect the status of the goods. A federal regulation states that “painting primarily intended to enhance the appearance of an article or to impart distinctive features or characteristics” is not incidental. The U.S. Customs Service levied a tariff on the trucks. DaimlerChrysler filed a suit in the U.S. Court of International Trade, challenging the levy. Should the court rule in DaimlerChrysler’s favor? Why or why not?

1.Mental health. The National Survey on Drug Use and Health reports that 18.1% of all adults in the United States had a mental illness in 2014. Among adults with a substance use disorder, 39.1% had a mental illness. By comparison, only 16.2% of adults without a substance use disorder had a mental illness. The report also states that 3.3% of American adults had both a mental illness and a substance use disorder. Use the notation MI and SUD for mental illness and substance abuse disorder, respectively.

Prior to 1970, maternity was usually treated differently from other medical expenses, either excluded entirely from coverage or subject to a flat lump-sum cash (indemnity) benefit. Why? During the 1970s, 23 states mandated that treatment related to pregnancy be covered the same as any other type of treatment, and in 1978, such coverage became uniform throughout the United States. Would mandated maternity benefits make working in a salaried position more or less attractive to women? Would it make women of childbearing age more or less attractive as employees? Would it increase or decrease the number of births performed by cesarean section? Whom do you think bore the expense of implementing this mandate? (For a discussion of these issues see Jonathan Gruber, “The Incidence of Mandated Maternity Benefits,” American Economic Review 84, no. 3 (1994): 622–641.

True or false to these questions
An executive's discretion and impact on a public policy issue increases as the issue matures over time.
Under the business judgment rule, all states prevent officers and directors from taking into account stakeholders (employees, customers, etc.) when determining whether a decision was made in the best interests of the company.
No state in the United States allows an executive to favor the interests of a stakeholder (e.g., employees) over the interest of shareholders.
Independent negligent acts by two different parties can each be held liable if each was a proximate cause of another's injuries.
The holding of the Dodge v. Ford case was that Ford's planned expansion of the business, to that extent, would be considered as acting within the best interests of the company.
Limited partners of a limited partnershiop never risk more than their investment in the partnership.
All choices of business entity allow the avoidance of double taxation of earnings.
