This assignment uses data structures, selection, use, control structures, logic, computation, file I/O, etc. In C++

There should be 3 files for the project: theMain.cpp, dateClass.h, dateClass.cpp (or similar file names)

For input/output. Read at least 10 dates in a data file set up this way:

The first number is the number of data items in the file. Then after that, each row is one date in the format month day year.

here is a sample data file of 6 elements:

6

1 1 2016

12 31 2011

11 01 -5506

13 02 2002

2 31 2020

2 21 2015

the output would be:

1 1 2016 would be: 1/1/16, January 1, 2016 and 1 January 2016

12 31 2011 would be: 12/31/11, December 31, 2011 and 31 December 2011

11 01 -5506 is an unknown date

13 02 2002 is an unknown date

2 31 2020 is an unknown date

2 21 2015 would be: 2/13/15, February 21, 2015 and 13 February 2015

if you program the main program similar to the example below, the output will be close to the example in the textbook. (the example below does not use files or a loop to read data)

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

#include "dateClass.h"

using namespace std;

int main()

       Date aDate(3,15,2016);

Gadgets Ltd has a division that represents a separate cash generating unit. At 30 June 2016, the carrying amounts of the assets of the division, valued pursuant to the cost model, are as follows:

Assets:

$

Cash

242,000

Plant and equipment

600,000

Less: accumulated depreciation

(200,000)

Land

800,000

Accounts receivable

Patent

200,000

Goodwill

     10,000

Carrying amount of cash generating unit

The receivables were regarded as collectable, and the inventory’s fair value less costs to sell was equal to its carrying amount. The patent has a fair value less costs to sell of $180,000, and the land has a fair value less costs to sell of $780,000.

The directors of Gadgets estimate that, at 30 June 2016, the fair value less costs to sell of the division amounts to $1,750,000, while the value in use of the division is $1,840,000.

As a result, management increased the depreciation of the plant and equipment from $40,000 p.a. to $45,000 for the year ended 30 June 2017.

By 30 June 2017, the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit was calculated to be $20,000 greater than the carrying amount of the assets of the unit.

Required:

Determine how Gadgets Ltd should account for the results of the impairment test at 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2017, and prepare any necessary journal entries. Show all workings and provide references to the relevant accounting standard to support your answer.

Clark Industries has a defined benefit pension plan that specifies annual retirement benefits equal to:                         

Clark Industries has a defined benefit pension plan that specifies annual retirement benefits equal to:
                             1.5% × Service years × Final year’s salary

Stanley Mills was hired by Clark at the beginning of 1997. Mills is expected to retire at the end of 2041 after 45 years of service. His retirement is expected to span 15 years. At the end of 2016, 20 years after being hired, his salary is $90,000. The company’s actuary projects Mills’s salary to be $370,000 at retirement. The actuary’s discount rate is 6%.

Required:

1.) Estimate the amount of Stanley Mills’s annual retirement payments for the 15 retirement years earned as of the end of 2016.

2.) Suppose Clark’s pension plan permits a lump-sum payment at retirement in lieu of annuity payments. Determine the lump-sum equivalent as the present value as of the retirement date of annuity payments during the retirement period.

3.) What is the company’s projected benefit obligation at the end of 2016 with respect to Stanley Mills?

4.) Even though pension accounting centers on the PBO calculation, the ABO still must be disclosed in the pension disclosure note. What is the company’s accumulated benefit obligation at the end of 2016 with respect to Stanley Mills?

5.) If we assume no estimates change in the meantime, what is the company’s projected benefit obligation at the end of 2017 with respect to Stanley Mills?

6.) What portion of the 2017 increase in the PBO is attributable to 2017 service (the service cost component of pension expense) and to accrued interest (the interest cost component of pension expense)?
