Hashem Oghli is a manufacturer of plastic products. Unfortunately, one of the moulding machines is out of order and needs to be replaced.
After receiving quotes from various suppliers, you find two types of moulding machines that are suitable. Type A moulding machine is a high-end machine; it has a higher purchase price but makes higher quality products that sell better on the market and bring more revenue. Type B moulding machine is lower-end; it is cheaper, but produces lower quality products and higher scraps that require rework. In addition, this machine produces less environmental pollution, therefore due to governmental program, this machine is tax exempt.
Hashem Oghli's managment asks you to evaluate these machines and recommend the best one. Cost structures of the two types are given below:
Type A machine:
Purchase price = $100,000
Salvage value = $20,000
Yearly revenue = $60,000
Yearly maintenance cost = $15,000
Yearly cost of scrap = $5,000
Type B machine:
Purchase price = $15,000
Salvage value = $0
Yearly revenue = $40,000
Yearly maintenance cost = $15,000
Yearly cost of scrap = $15,000
It is expected that both machines depreciate fast and will have to be replaced after three years (the company uses straight line depreciation method).
The company is using a discount rate of 6%. The tax rate for machine A is 10% and for machine B is 0%. (Note that neither choice would impact working capital.)
Below, you can find the incremental income statement for buying machine Type A. However, you can derive the incremental statement for Type B machine by replacing the relevant values. Note that the operating expense includes cost of maintenance and scrap production.

Note: all values are in thousand dollars. Use one decimal point precision in your calculations and answers.
Your task is to analyze the financial performance of the two options over three years and compare them. Answer the following questions.
A) What is the Net Present Value (NPV) for Type A machine?
B) What is the Net Present Value (NPV) for Type B machine?

HappyPups makes pet cameras and will be introducing their newest product, the Furbo. The Furbo is a camera that allows dog owners to check in on their pup, give their pup a treat, and talk to them while they are away. HappyPups spent $375,000 on consumer demand studies and an additional $40,000 on research and development to get the perfect product for all pet lovers. Each Furbo will sell for $195. It is expected that Furbo product will generate additional revenue from the sale of treats that are compatible with device. It is expected that 50% of Furbo purchases will result in an additional $15 net profit from treat sales at time of purchase. The Furbo has a variable cost of $125.00, and the project will incur an annual fixed cost of $1,400,000 each year. HappyPups will need to purchase a new machine to manufacture the Furbo for $2,000,000, and will be depreciated using the 3-yr MACRS schedule. HappyPups anticipates it will be able to sell the machine for $750,000 at the end of the project in three years. In order to promote the product, HappyPups will initially set aside $1,000,000 worth of inventory at the beginning of the project and will readjust NWC levels to reflect 10% of Furbo Sales (not including the treats). All inventory will be liquidated at the end of project. However, by introducing the Furbo, HappyPups anticipate that will take away roughly $1,000,000 in revenue each year from its existing pet camera line. The required return for the project is 20%, and the tax rate is 21%

Set up - You were hired in the role of accounting lead a couple of years ago by a privately held company.
You report directly to the CEO. The company sells its products through a dealer distribution network.
Revenue is booked at the time shipment occurs. Under standard practice, revenue will be booked as of
the last day of the month if the shipment will occur within 1 or 2 days of the new month. On occasion,
revenue may be booked if the product is ready for shipment but the dealer/customer does not wish to
take shipment due to a holiday or vacation schedule. (So, if the shipment does not occur only because it
is inconvenient for the dealer/customer to receive it, the customer is charged a nominal “warehousing”
fee and revenue will be recognized in such situations; shipment will occur as soon as it’s convenient for
the dealer/customer to receive the shipment upon their return to the workplace.) Since the company is
privately held, it does not require a financial audit but it does receive an annual financial review by an
independent CPA firm.
The Issue - At quarter end, you receive a call from your boss instructing you to book a $100,000 sale,
sending the invoice to a dealer/customer. On April 4, you send the invoice dated the last day of the
month (3/31) and you give the dealer/customer an additional 30 days to pay since the product had not
yet shipped as of April 4. The dealer/customer replies that as of April 5, he still does not have a
purchase order for the $100,000 sale but hopes to get one soon. In addition, if he cannot get the
purchase order, he hopes to get a purchase order elsewhere for basically the same products for a
hopefully similar price.
In addition, at the end of 2017, there was an order to be secured by a letter of credit. The CEO wants the
almost $100,000 sale in 2017. You let the CEO know you’re hesitant to book this in 2017 since the order
has not shipped and no letter of credit has been sent yet. There are also tax ramifications (i.e., the
company will fare better booking the sale in 2018 due to the more favorable tax treatment of
corporations under the new tax legislation). The CEO replies that before he decides, he wants to see
how the numbers shake out. He decides he wishes the revenue to appear in 2017.
There were some other bookings of revenues with various dealer/customers in quarter 1 totaling
approximately $150,000, for which letter of credit documentation had not yet been received. The
dealer/customers had not yet authorized shipment because the required documentation had not yet
cleared all channels (it was not due to holiday/vacation reason inconvenience), but the CEO said to
consider these transactions “warehoused” and book the revenue.
In addition to the fact that the review of 2017 is still ongoing, the company is looking to sell
approximately 20% of its stock to a publicly traded company. The 2017 financials have been provided to
the potential buyer (marked “unreviewed”) and the potential buyer has been asking for the quarter 1
results of 2018.
Get with your group. What is your view of the entire situation? What do you do? Be sure to pay
attention to rules/regs that lead you to feel there is an ethical problem here.
1. Determine the facts of the situation. This involves determining the "who, what, where, when, and how."
2. Identify the ethical issue and the stakeholders. Stakeholders may include shareholders, creditors, management, employees, and the community.
3. Identify the values related to the situation. For example, in some situations confidentiality may be an important value that may conflict with the right to know.
4. Specify the alternative courses of action.
