On January 1, 2018, Labtech Circuits borrowed $190,000 from First Bank by issuing a three-year, 8% note, payable on December 31, 2020. Labtech wanted to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its debt to increase. Therefore, Labtech entered into a three-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2018, and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. The agreement called for the company to receive payment based on an 8% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $190,000 and to pay interest based on a floating interest rate tied to LIBOR. The contract called for cash settlement of the net interest amount on December 31 of each year. Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 8% at inception and 9%, 7%, and 7% at the end of 2018, 2019, and 2020, respectively. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer. These quotes and the fair values of the note are as follows: January 1 December 31 2018 2018 2019 2020 Fair value of interest rate swap 0 $ (2,659 ) $ 1,835 $ 0 Fair value of note payable $ 190,000 $ 187,341 $ 191,835 $ 190,000 Required: 1. Calculate the net cash settlement at the end of 2018, 2019, and 2020. 2. Prepare the journal entries during 2018 to record the issuance of the note, interest, and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value. 3. Prepare the journal entries during 2019 to record interest, net cash interest settlement for the interest rate swap, and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value. 4. Prepare the journal entries during 2020 to record interest, net cash interest settlement for the interest rate swap, necessary adjustments for changes in fair value, and repayment of the debt. 5. Calculate the book values of both the swap account and the note in each of the three years. 6. Calculate the net effect on earnings of the hedging arrangement in each of the three years. (Ignore income taxes.) 7. Suppose the fair value of the note at December 31, 2018, had been $187,000 rather than $187,341 with the additional decline in fair value due to investors’ perceptions that the credit worthiness of Labtech was worsening. How would that affect your entries to record changes in the fair values?

In “What Was Volkswagen Thinking?,” Jerry Useem (2016) discusses James Burke, the CEO of Johnson & Johnson, and highlights Burke’s decision to hold a meeting with his top executives to discuss eliminating the company credo. Burke was concerned that the managers were not reflecting upon the company credo for everyday decisions. He called for a debate among his top managers about the document and the role of moral duties in daily business. Instead of voting to remove it, the managers chose to revitalize the message of the credo within the company (Useem, 2016).

In your response, explain why this meeting was effective. Why do you believe Burke chose this type of channel—where the managers could not only directly talk to him, but they could also talk to each other—over other types of communication?

Your response should be at least 500 words in length.
