Sunny Ltd., a hand sanitizer manufacturer, has prepared its financial statements for the year ended at December 31, 2019. On February 28, 2020, the board of directors authorized to issue the financial statements to shareholders. The following events have occurred:

1. On December 1, 2019, the board of directors decided to issue $50,000,000, 9% convertible bonds for the purpose of expanding business in other countries. The conversion rate is fixed at 50 shares for bond with face value of $1,000. The convertible bonds are offered to the public on January 15, 2020. The market interest rate for a similar bond without conversion option is at 12%.

2. On October 23, 2019, Sunny signed a contract to sell 10,000 hand sanitizer to a local store at a price of $200 each. However, due to the increase in the cost of materials, the estimated cost of making one hand sanitizer has been increased to $250. Sunny has to deliver the hand sanitizer to its customer on January 30, 2020.

3. Under the terms of the sales contract, Sunny undertakes to recall its new formulated sanitizer, for its manufacturing defects within six months from the date of sale. The accountants estimated that 5% of the sanitizer will be returned for refund. In January 2020, Sunny discovered a serious problem in the manufacturing process of the new formulated sanitizer. Because of this, Sunny expected that 20% of the sanitizer sold in 2019 will be returned for refund.

4. On December 15, 2019, a group of customers reported that the hand sanitizer that they bought in 2019 caused them have serious skin infection problems. They filed a lawsuit against Sunny on December 20, 2019. The company’s attorney said that it was probable that Sunny would be liable for the case. However, the amount of damage could not be estimated.

5. On February 12, 2020, the above lawsuit case was settled for the amount of $2,500,000.

6. Sunny has retail stores in China doing poorly. On February 15, 2020, Sunny estimated that those stores might report a loss of $1,500,000 in 2020.

7. In May 2019, Sunny had legal disputes with Coco Limited. Unable to reach out-of-court settlement with Coco, Sunny sued Coco for compensation for damages in August 2018. In November 2019, Sunny heard good news about the lawsuit in which the company sued Coco. Sunny’s lawyer is confident that the company will win the case and will receive about $120,000 in compensation for damages from Coco in early 2020. Sunny recognized the gain and receivable from litigation of $120,000 in year 2019.

8. On March 1, 2020, a customer owing $600,000 to Sunny filed for bankruptcy. The financial statements include an allowance for doubtful debts pertaining to this customer only of $30,000.

Required: For each of the above event, state the correct accounting treatments in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standards for the year ended at December 31, 2019. If it is an event after the reporting period, identify whether it is an adjusting or non-adjusting event. Give reasons for your answer.

Recall the survey you took during the first week of class. Oneof the questions was...

Recall the survey you took during the first week of class. One of the questions was “do you agree
that it is inappropriate to speak on a cellphone while at a restaurant?” Of the 1913 females that
responded to the survey, 1729 agreed with this statement. Of the 1276 males that responded to this
survey, 1111 agreed with this statement. Test to see if there is any difference between males and
females with respect to how they feel about this issue. Use a significance level of .05.
(a) State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.

(b) Calculate the test statistic and report the p-value.

(c) State your conclusion in context of the problem.

(d) Based only on the results of the hypothesis test, would you expect a 95% confidence interval to
include 0? Explain.

(e) Calculate and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference between males and females.

2. In a recent baseball World Series, the Houston Astros were ordered to keep the roof of their stadium
open. The Houston team claimed that this would make them lose a home-field advantage, because
the noise from fans would be less effective. During the regular season, Houston won 36 of 53 games
played with the roof closed, and they won 15 of 26 games played with the roof open. Treat these
results as a simple random sample of games. Use a significance level of 0.05 to test the claim that
the proportion of wins at home is higher with a closed roof than with an open roof. Does the closed
roof appear to be an advantage?
(a) State the null and alternative hypotheses to determine whether the closed roof is an advantage.

(b) The test statistic for the above test was z = 0.89 which gives us a p-value of 0.1858. State a
conclusion in context of the problem.

(c) Based on the results of the hypothesis test, would you expect a confidence interval to include
0. Why or why not?

3. In a study of the effects of marijuana use during pregnancy, measurements on babies of mothers who
used marijuana during pregnancy were compared to measurements on babies of mothers who did
not. A 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean head circumference μ1 − μ2 (μ1 is mean
for mothers who don’t use marijuana and μ2 is the mean for mothers who use marijuana) was 0.61
to 1.19 cm.
(a) Interpret this confidence interval in context of the problem.

(b) Based on the confidence interval, what can we say about the p-value of the following hypothesis
test: H0 : μ1 = μ2 versus H1 : μ1 > μ2 at the 0.05 significance level? State your conclusion for
the test.

Real Gross Domestic Product (Real GDP), inflation rate and unemployment are important indicators in measuring the economic performance of a country. In this assignment, you are required to choose a country and explain its economic performance.

  1. First, you will have to find and compile the data of Real GDP, unemployment rate and inflation rate from 1980 to 2010 for the chosen country.
  2. Based on the data from question (a), draw a table to show the data for the three variables. Draw also a line graph for Real GDP and the second line graph that shows the unemployment rate and inflation rate (both variables in the same second line graph).
  3. Explain the country's macroeconomic experience of economic growth rate (based on Real GDP data), unemployment and inflation between 1980 and 2010. Your explanation can also include policies implemented by the government and/or central bank of the country to increase economic growth rate and to remedy unemployment and inflation, if any, or any other relevant information for the three variables.

Additional information:

  • Each group must consist of 3-4 members.
  • All data are available in http://databank.worldbank.org/. e.g
    • Real GDP = Gross Domestic Product (Constant price USD)
    • Inflation rate = % Changes in Consumer Price Index (CPI)
    • Unemployment rate = % of Unemployment (Total labour force)
