Question 1(a) “Chain Saw”AL and Sunbeam (1995-1998)AL Dunlop was proud of the fact that he was at the bottom of his West Point class (he did graduate). Afrightening thought worthy of Dr.Strangelove is that as an officer he was assigned to a missile silo and the missiles were armed with nuclear weapons.He was chosen to turn around Scott Paper company. Within six months he had dismissed 11,200 employees including 50 percent of all managers and 70 percent of all corporate staff and paid off a significant amount of Scott’s long term debt. He then sold the company to Kimberly-Clark making over $100 million from his stock options.In the spring of 1995 AL Dunlop gave a talk at the Johnson School in Professor Bierman’s finance course. He received a standing ovation for his talk which stressed that managers should increase shareholder value.That night there was a dinner in his honour at Renees attended by Charles Elson (law school professor and friend of AL), Bob Gibbons, Jerry Hass and Hal Bierman(the last three wereJohnson School professors). It was a dinner from hell. Dunlop insisted on using profanity continuously and incorrectly and insulting each of the professors in sequence. Attempts at peace making were turned into profane tirades. He was actually an unintelligent, dislikeable and uninformed man. The next day a group of students came to Professor Bierman’s office and advocatedALDunlop for Dean of the School. Bierman suggested that they approach the tenth person they met incollegetown and offer the job to that person since he would perform better.July 18, 1996 Dunlop (now 59) was made Chairman of the Board of the Sunbeam Corporation, a company in need of help. On July 17, the stock price was $12.25. By July 19, the stock reached a price of $19.50. This wasthe biggest gain prompted by a chief executive announcement in the history of theNew York Stock Exchange. Professor Bierman took it as a matter of honour to sell the stock short.

Sunbeam paid Dunlop a salary of $1 million a year,2.5 million options to buy at $12.25 and one million shares of restricted stock(worth $18 million). The total package has a value in excess of $38 million.By August 8, he had dismissed the president of Sunbeam’s household products group, the chief financial officer, the chief operating officer North America, and the vice president of strategic planning for North America. Sunbeam had 60 staff people at its Fort Lauderdale headquarters. The market expected headcount reductions. Dunlop sent the following press release “I set as an initial goal the quick appointment of a highly focused management team to provide leadership in the transition to the Sunbeam Corporation”. He also stated “if you can’t rum a company around in a year, you can’t do it at all”.In November 1996, Dunlop announced a major restructuring.Headcount will be reduced by 50% to 6,000. Some of the reductions willbe the result of divestitures. In January 1997, Sunbeam sold its clock, timers, and thermometer units to CIT Group Holdings for $8 million (the units generated $20 million in annual revenues). By the first quarter of 1997, Sunbeam had a positive (but small) profit, Sales were almost as high as in 1995 but not as high as the first halfof 1996.But some critics pointed out that there were last minute sales drives in the first quarter of 1997, including deliveries when the orders had been cancelled because of failure to deliver in time.Dunlop said “we are definitely on schedule and we will probably deliver better results than we expected “.The stock price broke through $30.Professor Bierman sold short more shares.By December 1997,the stock price reached $41.Professor Biermancovered his short position having lost all faith in the efficiency of the stock market.by the end of 1997,the stock reacheda high of $50 7/16 and the company reported net earnings of $109.4 million ($1.41 per share) for the year.In the fall of 1997, Dunlop hired Morgan Stanley to sell Sunbeam. The $50 stock price precluded any bids. Dunlop decided if he could not sell then he would buy. In March1998, Sunbeam purchased Coleman Corporation for $2.2 billion and Signature Brands and First Alert for $425 million. Now Sunbeam had over $2 billion of in debt and itsnet worth was a negative $600 million.

By June 8, 1998, the business press wondered whether Dunlop had manufactured Sunbeam’s 1997 earnings by accelerating the bookings of sales and various accounting tricks .one author estimated the inflation in profits to be $120 million. This estimate was probably too low.On Saturday, June 13, 1998, AlbertJ. Dunlop was fired by Sunbeam. The motion to remove Dunlop was made by Charles Elson, Dunlop’s good friend and staunch alley in the pursuit of shareholders rights. Elson was an honourable person who voted on behalf of Sunbeam’s shareholders and against his friend. Sunbeam’s stock had fallen to $18.0625 on Friday, June 12. The stock continued to fall to $11.25 by June 29. The stock price decline continued with the stock price falling below ten in July (Biermann was right, if poorer).On April 22, 1999, Sunbeam reported a loss of $898 million for 1998. Its warehouses were full of finished goods inventories. The stock sold for $5.375. Finally, AL Dunlop announced that he was ready to another corporation.Required:(i)ALDunlop was a great success at Scott Paper selling out to Kimberly-Clark at a fine profit. Why was he a failure at Sunbeam?(ii)With hindsight we know AL at Sunbeam was a disaster. What hints were there that maybe he was not going to be a success at Sunbeam?(iii)What generalizationsare there?(iv)Sunbeam reported $109.4 million of income for the year 1997. What accounting related actions could Sunbeam have taken that would inflate 1997 income?(v)What real actions in 1996 and 1997 would tend to increase income? Which of these actions are desirable?(vi)As a consultant hired in 1996 would you doas Dunlop wants you to do or would you do what you think is best for Sunbeam? Assume Dunlop’s actions will harm Sunbeam’s stockholders and employees.

The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price—$14 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings):

January (actual) 21,600 June (budget) 51,600
February (actual) 27,600 July (budget) 31,600
March (actual) 41,600 August (budget) 29,600
April (budget) 66,600 September (budget) 26,600
May (budget) 101,600

The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Mother’s Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month.

Suppliers are paid $4.80 for a pair of earrings. One-half of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit. Only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible.

Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below:

Variable:
Sales commissions 4 % of sales
Fixed:
Advertising $ 280,000
Rent $ 26,000
Salaries $ 122,000
Utilities $ 11,000
Insurance $ 3,800
Depreciation $ 22,000

Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year.

The company plans to purchase $20,000 in new equipment during May and $48,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $21,000 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.

The company’s balance sheet as of March 31 is given below:

Assets
Cash $ 82,000
Accounts receivable ($38,640 February sales; $465,920 March sales) 504,560
Inventory 127,872
Prepaid insurance 25,000
Property and equipment (net) 1,030,000
Total assets $ 1,769,432
Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
Accounts payable $ 108,000
Dividends payable 21,000
Common stock 960,000
Retained earnings 680,432
Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity $ 1,769,432

The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $58,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month.

The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $58,000 in cash.

December of the previous year-40,000

January-90,000

February-80,000

March-70,000

2. Prepare a purchases budget for January through March, and the first quarter in total. Assume that the company only sells one product that can be purchased at $15.00 per unit. The market for this product is very competitive and customers highly value service such as quality and on time delivery of the product. Also assume that currently it is company policy that ending inventory should equal 5% of next month’s projected sales.

3. Prepare a cash budget for January through March and for the first quarter in total. The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $50,000.00, and this was the balance in the cash account on January 1. Past experience shows that 30% of sales are collected in the month of the sale, and 70% in the month following the sale. Labor cost is $15 per unit. Other expenses include $37,000 per month for rent, $4,000 for advertising, and $6,000 per month for depreciation. All costs are paid in the current month except inventory purchases, which are paid in the month following purchase (i.e. January purchases are paid in February). On January 1st there was an accounts receivable balance of $60,000 and an outstanding accounts payable balance of $100,000. The company has an open line of credit with a bank and can borrow at an annual rate of 12%. For simplification assume that all loans are made at the beginning of the month when borrowing is needed and repayments are made at the end of a month when there is enough cash to make the payment. Also, interest is only paid at the time when a repayment is made. Additionally, all loans and repayments (not the interest portion) can only be made in increments of $1000 and the company would like to pay its debts, or a portion thereof, as soon as it has enough cash to do so.
