Pepper Company acquired 90 percent of Salt Company's stock at underlying book value on January 1, 20X8. At that date, the fair value of the non-controlling interest was equal to 10 percent of the book value of Salt Company. Salt Co. sold equipment to Pepper Co. for a $360,000 on December 31, 20X8. Salt Co. had originally purchased the equipment for $400,000 on January 1, 20x5, with a useful life of 10 years and no salvage value. At the time of the purchase, Pepper Co. estimated that the equipment still had the same remaining useful life. Both companies use straight-line depreciation. Pepper sold land costing $90,000 to Salt Company on June 28, 20X9, for $122,000.

Dealer Financing On 1/1/X1, Tractor Co. sold a new combine to Jim’s U-Pick farm. The purchase agreement establishes a base price of $100,000, plus a contractual interest rate of 5%, payable in 48 monthly installments of $2,302.93. Control of the combine transferred to Jim when Jim signed the contract and had the combine delivered that same day. If Jim had obtained separate financing (say, a bank loan) for the purchase, his interest rate would have been 6%.

What amount of revenue should Tractor Co. record at the date of sale? What guidance should Tractor Co. apply to the subsequent measurement of its receivable?

Consider the measurement attribute used to record Tractor Co.’s revenues. How does this approach achieve the objective of this measurement attribute?

Hint: You might find it useful to use Microsoft Excel’s formula options: PMT and PV for this example. Excel walks you through how to input numbers into each formula.

In the body, hemoglobin (Hb) is the substance responsible for transporting oxygen (O2) to tissues. Hemoglobin binds oxygen to produce oxyhemoglobin (HbO2):

Hb + O2 ? HbO2

Carbon monoxide (CO) can also bind to hemoglobin to produce carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO):

Hb + CO ? HbCO

The equilibrium constant for Reaction 2 (KCO) is about 210 times larger than the equilibrium constant for Reaction 1 (KO2). Thus, carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin much more efficiently than oxygen.

KCO/KO2 = 210

a. Write a balanced equation for the displacement of oxygen from HbO2 by CO to produce HbCO. Write the equilibrium constant expression for your overall reaction.

b. Write an expression that relates the equilibrium constant for the overall reaction (i.e., from Question 1) to the equilibrium constants KCO and KO2.

c. Use your balanced equation from part (a) and your knowledge of equilibrium constants to explain why patients who are experiencing CO poisoning are generally given pure oxygen as a remedy.

22. Wentworth Co. is planning a project in France. It would lease space for one year in a shopping mall to sell expensive clothes manufactured in the U.S. The project would end in one year, when all earnings would be remitted to Wentworth Co. Assume that no additional corporate taxes are incurred beyond those imposed by the French government. Since Wentworth Co. would rent space, it would not have any long-term assets in France, and expects the salvage (terminal) value of the project to be about zero.  

Assume that the project’s required rate of return is 20 percent. Also assume that the initial outlay required by the parent to fill the store with clothes is $300,000. The pretax earnings are expected to the €500,000 at the end of one year. The euro is expected to be worth $1.16 at the end of one year, when the after-tax earnings are converted to dollars and remitted to the United States. The following forms of country risk, which are independent, must be considered:

* The French economy may weaken (probability = 35%), which would cause the expected pretax earnings to be €400,000.

* The French corporate tax rate on income earned by U.S. firms may increase from 30 percent to 40 percent (probability = 30 percent).

       $1,165
       $2,375
Continued from Question 22, what is your recommendation to Wentworth Co. regarding the feasibility of this project based on the NPV rule?
       Wentworth Co. could undertake the project because the expected NPV is positive.
       Wentworth Co. should not undertake the project because the expected NPV is negative.
Continued from Question 22, what is the probability that the NPV would be negative?
