2. Look at the last five(omit 2020 Q2) quarters covered in the table. Compare the most recent quarter to the same quarter in the previous year.

a) Which sector* had the largest percentage increase in profit (or largest decrease in loss)

b) Which sector had the smallest percentage increase in profit (or the largest percentage decrease in profit)?

c) Which sectors*, if any, experienced losses during any of the last four quarters covered in the table?

*Note: By "sector", I mean certain groups larger than an individual industry: These are: “Financial” (Row 10), “Utilities (Row 14), "Manufacturing" (Row 15), "Durable goods" (Row 16), "Nondurable goods" (Row 23) and Rows 28 through 32. The listings in Rows 17 through 22 and 24 through 27 (the rows which are most indented from the left margin) are industries, not sectors.

The wheat harvesting season in the American Midwest is​ short, and farmers deliver their truckloads of wheat to a giant central storage bin within a 2​-week span. Because of​ this, wheat-filled trucks waiting to unload and return to the fields have been known to back up for a block at the receiving bin. The central bin is owned​ cooperatively, and it is to every​ farmer's benefit to make the​ unloading/storage process as efficient as possible. The cost of grain deterioration caused by unloading delays and the cost of truck rental and idle driver time are significant concerns to the cooperative members. Although farmers have difficulty quantifying crop​ damage, it is easy to assign a waiting and unloading cost for truck and driver of ​$17 per hour. During the 2​-week harvest​ season, the storage bin is open and operated16 hours per​ day, 7 days per​ week, and can unload 34 trucks per hour according to a negative exponential distribution. Full trucks arrive all day long​ (during the hours the bin is​ open) at a rate of about 30 per​ hour, following a Poisson pattern

​e) The total daily cost to the farmers of having their trucks tied up in the unloading process​ = ____ per day ​(round your response to the nearest whole​ number).

​f) As​ mentioned, the cooperative uses the storage bin heavily only 2 weeks per year. Farmers estimate that enlarging the bin would cut unloading costs by 50​% next year. It will cost ​$8 comma ____ to do so during the​ off-season. The one-year net​ cost/benefit to enlarge the storage area​ =____ (round your response to the nearest whole​ number).

Pirate Company purchased 60 percent ownership of Ship Corporation on January 1, 20X1, for $82,800. On that date, the noncontrolling interest had a fair value of $55,200 and Ship reported common stock outstanding of $100,000 and retained earnings of $20,000. The full amount of the differential is assigned to land to be used as a future building site. Pirate uses the fully adjusted equity method in accounting for its ownership of Ship. On December 31, 20X2, the trial balances of the two companies are as follows:

Page 289Ship sold inventory costing $25,500 to Pirate for $42,500 in 20X1. Pirate resold 80 percent of the purchase in 20X1 and the remainder in 20X2. Ship sold inventory costing $21,000 to Pirate in 20X2 for $35,000, and Pirate resold 70 percent of it prior to December 31, 20X2. In addition, Pirate sold inventory costing $14,000 to Ship for $28,000 in 20X2, and Ship resold all but $13,000 of its purchase prior to December 31, 20X2.

Assume both companies use straight-line depreciation and that no property, plant, and equipment has been purchased since the acquisition.

Use the data provided after the trial balance in the paragraph in the book. Complete the tables for each inventory transaction and the consolidation entries for the x7 and the x8 inventory transactions.

Martinez Company has the following two temporary differences between its income tax expense and income taxes payable.

The income tax rate for all years is 40%.

- Assuming there were no temporary differences prior to 2017, prepare the journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2017, 2018, and 2019.

- Indicate how deferred taxes will be reported on the 2019 balance sheet. Martinez’s product warranty is for 12 months.

- Prepare the income tax expense section of the income statement for 2019, beginning with the line “Pretax financial income."
