2. Write a positioning statement for the SBU
3. Develop a brand new creative movie, name and theme
4. List the S-T-P of your movie (think: CLV, IP, Core competencies)
5. present a one-page executive summary to the CEO of the parent company, trying to convince him/her to invest studio funds for your movie concept. Remember, all proposals have a beginning, middle, and conclusion. Therefore, similar to advertisements, you must Attract/Intrigue/Persuade!

"The rules of engagement for running a company that is people-based like Starbucks, and so many other companies: you just can not [sic] continue to leave your people behind and only focus on shareholder value," CEO Howard Schultz told CNN's Poppy Harlow (Wallace, 2014).

1. Megaphone is a cellular telephone service provider with 40% market share of the telephone service market in the United States. The CEO, Schubert Purdoch, has achieved that share in large part by acquiring small competitors. Megaphone is seeking to acquire Vinaphone which provides cellular telephone service as well. Vinaphone has become a household name in large part because of their ads making fun of Megaphone as an “out of touch dinosaur” of a company, featuring a dinosaur with the head of Schubert Purdoch. After this merger, Megaphone will not only be able to pull those ads off the air, but will also have 60% market share for telephone service. How would the FTC analyze this merger? What question(s) would be asked?

The Wong family incorporated Alberta Wholesale Limited (AWL) on January 1, 20X1 when the company issued common shares to several family members for cash. After obtaining mortgage financing, the company constructed a warehouse and began a food wholesale business.
The company has a small accounting staff that recorded transactions throughout the year. The company’s CEO knows that cash is correct because she has reviewed the bank reconciliation. However, she was unable to hire a professionally trained CFO and is concerned that the draft financial statements prepared by her staff (Exhibit I), which are prepared using IFRS, may have errors including the final calculation of income tax expense based on a 30% income tax rate.
The CEO has hired you to correct any accounting errors made by her staff by:
1. Providing a memo listing any adjusting entries that the company needs to make along with comments explaining why the company recorded items incorrectly and how and why the company should have recorded the transaction along with supporting calculations relating to adjustments. You should have at least one adjusting journal entry (you may need several entries for some issues) for each of the following issues. If an issue deals with more than one transaction, try to have an adjusting entry for each transaction within the issue.

Issue 1
On January 1, 20X1, the company received an operating line of credit from the bank for $6,000,000. The interest rate on this line was at 5% throughout 20X1. On that same day, AWL bought land costing $2,000,000 and on that day, construction on a warehouse commenced. The company paid the building contractor $4,000,000 on each of the following three dates for a total amount spent of $12,000,000: February 1, March 1 and April 1, 20X1. The contractor completed construction of the building by April 30, 20X1. AWL also received a $10,000,000 mortgage at 4% was received from the bank on February 28, 20X1 to pay for the warehouse. The mortgage required monthly payments of $101,246 on the last day of each month commencing March 31, 20X1. Interest on the line of credit is due on the first day of each month commencing February 1, 20X1. AWL paid no portion of the principal of the line of credit during 20X1 and there are no fixed terms of repayment on the line of credit although the bank can demand repayment at any time by giving 90 days notice and requires the company to maintain a current ratio greater than 3:1. Furthermore, the debt to equity ratio cannot exceed 1.5 so the company does not want to record any more liabilities if possible.

Issue 2
The company received a government grant of $1,000,000 cash on April 30 to make the warehouse more energy efficient. When received, we recorded it in grant revenue.
