Tru Developers, Inc., sells plots of land for industrial development. Tru recognizes income for financial reporting purposes in the year it sells the plots. For some of the plots sold this year, Tru took the position that it could recognize the income for tax purposes when the installments are collected. Income that Tru recognized for financial reporting purposes in 2018 for plots in this category was $70 million. The company expected to collect 60% of each sale in 2019 and 40% in 2020. This amount over the next two years is as follows:

2019 $ 42 million
2020 28 million
$ 70 million


Tru’s pretax accounting income for 2018 was $100 million. In its income statement, Tru reported interest income of $15 million, unrelated to the land sales, for which the company’s position is that the interest is not taxable. Accordingly, the interest was not reported on the tax return. There are no differences between accounting income and taxable income other than those described above. The enacted tax rate is 40 percent.

Management believes the tax position taken on the land sales has a greater than 50% chance of being upheld based on its technical merits, but the position taken on the interest has a less than 50% chance of being upheld. It is further believed that the following likelihood percentages apply to the tax treatment of the land sales ($ in millions):

Amount Qualifying for
Installment Sales Treatment
Percentage Likelihood of
Tax Treatment Being Sustained
$ 70 20 %
60 20 %
50 20 %
40 20 %
30 20 %


Required:
1. What portion of the tax benefit of tax-free interest will Tru recognize on its 2018 tax return?
2. What portion of the tax benefit of tax-free interest will Tru recognize on its 2018 financial statements?
3-a. What portion of the tax on the $70 million income from the plots sold on an installment basis will Tru defer on its 2018 tax return?
3-b. What portion of the tax on the $70 million income from the plots sold on an installment basis will Tru defer in its 2018 financial statements?
4. Prepare the journal entry to record income taxes in 2018 assuming full recognition of the tax benefits in the financial statements of both differences between pretax accounting income and taxable income.
5. Prepare the journal entry to record income taxes in 2018 assuming the recognition of the tax benefits in the financial statements you indicated in requirements 1-3.

1. Commute times in the U.S. are heavily skewed to the right. We select a random sample of 240 people from the 2000 U.S. Census who reported a non-zero commute time. In this sample the mean commute time is 28.9 minutes with a standard deviation of 19.0 minutes. Can we conclude from this data that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour? Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level of significance. What is the p -value for this hypothesis test?

2.A medical researcher is studying the effects of a drug on blood pressure. Subjects in the study have their blood pressure taken at the beginning of the study. After being on the medication for 4 weeks, their blood pressure is taken again. The change in blood pressure is recorded and used in doing the hypothesis test. Change: Final Blood Pressure - Initial Blood Pressure The researcher wants to know if there is evidence that the drug increases blood pressure. At the end of 4 weeks, 34 subjects in the study had an average change in blood pressure of 2.5 with a standard deviation of 5.1. Find the p -value for the hypothesis test.

3.Child Health and Development Studies (CHDS) has been collecting data about expectant mothers in Oakland, CA since 1959. One of the measurements taken by CHDS is the weight increase (in pounds) for expectant mothers in the second trimester. In a fictitious study, suppose that CHDS finds the average weight increase in the second trimester is 14 pounds. Suppose also that, in 2015, a random sample of 43 expectant mothers have mean weight increase of 16.2 pounds in the second trimester, with a standard deviation of 5.7 pounds. A hypothesis test is done to see if there is evidence that weight increase in the second trimester is greater than 14 pounds. Find the p -value for the hypothesis test.

Questions:

  1. The NOAA National Climatic Data Center of the United States provides data on the average annual temperature for every state in the United States. The average annual temperatures are based on data collected by weather stations throughout each state during the years 1971 to 2000. Is there strong evidence that the mean average annual temperature in the United States is greater than 50 degrees Fahrenheit? Explain. Use a significance level of 5%.

  2. As gas prices continue to rise, more customers are beginning to take into account miles per gallon (a measure of the average distance traveled per unit of energy consumed) when determining which type of car to purchase. Do cars made in Japan typically get more miles per gallon than cars made in the United States? A random sample of 79 cars made in Japan had a mean of 30.48 and a standard deviation of 6.11 miles per gallon. A random sample of 249 cars made in the United States produced a mean of 20.14 and a standard deviation of 6.41 miles per gallon. Use a significance level of 0.10.

  3. The U.S. Census Bureau reports that 26% of all U.S. businesses are owned by women. A Colorado consulting firm surveys a random sample of 410 businesses in the Denver area and finds that 115 of them have women owners. Should the firm conclude that its area is unusual? Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion. Use =0.05.

Exercise 19-08

Express Delivery is a rapidly growing delivery service. Last year, 80% of its revenue came from the delivery of mailing “pouches” and small, standardized delivery boxes (which provides a 20% contribution margin). The other 20% of its revenue came from delivering non-standardized boxes (which provides a 70% contribution margin). With the rapid growth of Internet retail sales, Express believes that there are great opportunities for growth in the delivery of non-standardized boxes. The company has fixed costs of $13,640,100.

(a) What is the company’s break-even point in total sales dollars? At the break-even point, how much of the company’s sales are provided by each type of service? (Use Weighted-Average Contribution Margin Ratio rounded to 2 decimal places e.g. 0.22 and round final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 2,510.)

Total break-even sales $
Sale of mail pouches and small boxes $
Sale of non-standard boxes $


(b) The company’s management would like to hold its fixed costs constant but shift its sales mix so that 60% of its revenue comes from the delivery of non-standardized boxes and the remainder from pouches and small boxes. If this were to occur, what would be the company’s break-even sales, and what amount of sales would be provided by each service type? (Use Weighted-Average Contribution Margin Ratio rounded to 2 decimal places e.g. 0.22 and round final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 2,510.)

Total break-even sales $
Sale of mail pouches and small boxes $
Sale of non-standardized boxes $

Steps:

            1) Multiply prevalence (i.e., % in population) by N

            2) Enter value as Total # in the Clinical group

            3) Enter Total for non-clinical by subtracting that result from N

            4) Clinical group column:

                        a) Multiply Clinical total by the sensitivity of the test and enter in top row (Correct +)

                        b) Subtract that value from the Clinical Group total to get the bottom row value (# misses)

            5) Non-clinical group

                        a) Multiply non-clinical total by the specificity of the test and enter in bottom row (correct -)

                        b) Subtract that value from the column total to obtain the top row value (# False +)

            6) Add values in rows to obtain row totals

            7) PPV = (Correct +s / Total +s) = top left cell divided by top row total

            8) NPV = (Correct –s/ Total –s) = bottom right cell divided by bottom row total
