Suppose Green Mountain Coffee Roasters presents the following information in its 2012 financial statements: Net Sales $4.5B Cost of Sales $3B Income Tax Expense $0.2B General & Admin Expenses $0.4B Selling & Marketing Expenses $0.3B Interest Expense $0.2B What would the Net Income be in this fiscal year?

$0.4B To get Net Income, we need to subtract from Net Sales the Cost of Sales, all Operating and Admin Expenses as well as Interest and Tax Expense. The calculation would be: $4.5B - 3B - 0.4B - 0.3B - 0.2B - 0.2B = $0.4B

Suppose Green Mountain Coffee Roasters presents the following information in its 2013 financial statements: Net Sales $4.4 B Cost of Sales $2.8B Income Tax Expense $0.3B General and Admin Expenses $0.3B Selling and Operating Expenses $0.5B Interest Expense $0.1B What would be the Operating Income in this fiscal year?

$0.8B Operating Income is the profit before taxes and interest. In this example it is the Gross Profit (Net Sales - Cost of Goods Sold) minus Selling, Operating, General and Admin Expenses.

For the year 2013, Darkeye Corp.'s Gross Profit was $600,000. Their income statement shows that Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) was $450,000, and Operating Expense was $180,000. What was Darkeye Corp.'s Sales Revenue for 2013?

$1,050,000 The general formula is Revenue - COGS = Gross Profit Since we know COGS was $450,000 and Gross Profit was $600,000, Revenue must be $1,050,000. Operating expense is not needed in this calculation. In addition, since this question asks you to find Revenue, you can rearrange the formula to be: Revenue = Gross Profit + COGS, so 600,000 + 450,000 = 1,050,000

Suppose Hipzone had Net Income of $1,600,000 for the year 2011. They also had the following income and expenses: COGS $7,000,000 SG&A Expense $2,100,000 Other Non-Operating Income $100,000 Interest Income $20,000 Depreciation Expense $350,000 Income Tax Expense $150,000 What would the Operating Income be for the year 2011?

$1,630,000 To get from Net Income to Operating Income, we need to add back the Tax Expense ($150,000) and eliminate the impact of any non-operating income or expenses ($20,000 Interest Income and $100,000 Other Income). $1,600,000 +150,000 - 20,000 - 100,000 = $1,630,000

For the year 2013, suppose Green Mountain Coffee Roasters had Net Revenue of $4.4 billion, $2.8 billion of Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and $0.5 billion of selling and operating costs. What is GMCR's Gross Profit in the year?

$1.6 billion The correct answer is $1.6 billion Net Revenue - COGS = Gross Profit Net Revenue of $4.4 billion minus COGS of $2.8 billion equals $1.6 billion Gross Profit. Selling and operating costs are not needed in this calculation.

For the year 2013, West Corp. had Revenue of $500,000. Their income statement shows that Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) was $320,000, and Net Income was $80,000. What was West Corp.'s Gross Profit?

$180,000 Revenue - COGS = Gross Profit Revenue of $500,000 minus COGS of $320,000 equals Gross Profit of $180,000. Net Income is not needed in this calculation.

For 2012, suppose Cardullo's had Gross Profit of $500,000 and the following expenses: Salaries and Wages Expense $200,000 Building and Utilities Expense $80,000 Other Operating Expenses $30,000 Interest Expense $15,000 Income Tax Expense $25,000 Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) $500,000 What would be Cardullo's Operating Income for 2012?

$190,000 Operating Income is the income before taxes and interest. In this example it is the Gross Profit minus the Salaries and Wages and the Building and Utilities Expenses and the Other Operating Expenses.

Suppose Hipzone's Operating Income for 2014 was $2,042,000. Their income and expenses during the year include the following: Sales, General, & Admin Expense $2,397,000 Interest Income $3,000 Income Taxes $155,000 Depreciation Expense $374,000 What was Hipzone's Income Before Taxes for 2014?

$2,045,000 In this example, S,G,& A and Depreciation Expenses are operating expenses that have already been deducted to arrive at Operating Income. Income Taxes will be deducted after Income Before Taxes. To get to Income Before Taxes, simply add Interest Income to Operating Income: $2,042,000 + $3,000 = $2,045,000

Suppose PepsiCo purchased a piece of plant equipment in December, 2013 and, after installing and testing the equipment, it was put into service on January 1, 2014. The total cost to put the equipment into service was $300,000; it is expected to have a useful life of 5 years and a salvage value of $60,000. Assuming PepsiCo uses straight-line depreciation, what would the accumulated depreciation related to this asset be on July 1, 2014?

$24,000 By July 1, 2014, the equipment would have been in use for 6 months. The amount to be depreciated is the total cost to put the asset in service ($300,000) minus the assumed salvage value after 5 years ($60,000). This leaves $240,000 to be depreciated over 5 years (60 months) or $4,000 per month. Therefore, the accumulated depreciation at that point would be $24,000 ($4,000 per month times 6 months).

Suppose Zenon Co. issued a long-term bond and received $250,000 cash from the issuance during 2015. The company also issued 12,000 shares of common stock for $260,000. At the end of the year, Zenon paid $165,000 for the dividend declared last year. What would be the net impact of these transactions on Zenon's 2015 statement of cash flows under US GAAP?

$345,000 would be shown as an increase in the Financing Section. The correct answer is: the $345,000 would be shown as an increase in the Financing section. $250,000 + $260,000 - $165,000 = $345,000 Cash inflows from issuing long-term bonds and stocks, and cash outflows for paying dividends should be included in the Financing Section.

Suppose PepsiCo purchased a piece of plant equipment in December, 2013 and, after installing and testing the equipment, it was put into service on January 1, 2014. The total cost to put the equipment into service was $300,000; it is expected to have a useful life of 5 years and a salvage value of $60,000. Assuming PepsiCo uses straight-line depreciation, what would the depreciation expense be for the month of July, 2014?

$4,000 The amount to be depreciated is the total cost to put the asset in service ($300,000) minus the assumed salvage value after 5 years ($60,000). This leaves $240,000 to be depreciated over 5 years (60 months) or $4,000 per month.

A company has retained earnings of $94,000 as of December 31, 2014. The Pro-forma income statement projects net income of $22,000 for 2015. The company expects to declare their annual dividend on March 15, 2015 of $0.70 per share and has a total of 100,000 shares outstanding. What will the projected retained earnings account be as of December 31, 2015?

$46,000 To calculate the projected retained earnings, you add the projected 2015 net income of $22,000 to the beginning balance of $94,000 carried over from 2014. Then you must subtract $70,000 for the dividend of $0.70 per share times the 100,000 shares outstanding. $94,000 + $22,000 - $70,000 = $46,000

For the year 2012, suppose Cardullo's Gourmet Shoppe had revenues of $1,100,000. Their income statement shows that Gross Profit was $500,000 and Other Expenses were $350,000. What was Cardullo's Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)?

$600,000 Revenue - COGS = Gross Profit Since we know Revenues were $1,100,000 and Gross Profit was $500,000, COGS must be $600,000. Other expenses is not needed in this calculation.

Company X reported the following information on its 2015 income statement: Interest Expense $10,000 Income Tax $50,000 Net Income $140,000 What is Company X's Interest Coverage Ratio for 2015?

20.0 Interest Coverage Ratio = EBIT / Interest Expense = (Net Income + Income Tax + Interest Expense) (140,000 +50,000 + 10,000) / 10,000) = 20.0

The Peach Pit, a restaurant, has Net Income of $25,000, Sales of $55,000, Assets of $115,000, and no debt. What is their ROE?

21.7% ROE = (Net Income / Sales) X (Sales / Assets) X (Assets / Equity) If a company has no debt, then their equity multiplier is 1. (25,000/55,000) * (55,000/115,000) * 1 = 21.7%

Bob's Burgers has an Inventory Turnover of 6.0, an Accounts Receivable Turnover of 8.5, and an Accounts Payable Turnover of 10.1. What is the length of their Cash Conversion Cycle?

67.6 Days Inventory + Average Collection Period - Days Purchases Outstanding = Cash Conversion Cycle Days Inventory = 365 / Inventory Turnover Average Collection Period = 365 / Accounts Receivable Turnover Days Purchases Outstanding = 365 / Accounts Payable Turnover ( 365 / 6.0 + 365 / 8.5 - 365 / 10.1 ) = 67.6

Based on this income statement for Company ZYX for the year ending December 31, 2014, what adjustment would need to be made to Net Income to account for Gain or Loss in calculating cash flow from Operating Activities using the indirect method? gain/(loss) on sale of equipment (30,000) gain/(loss) on sale of debt investment 46,000

Adjustment of (16,000) in the Operating Section The correct answer is: Adjustment of (16,000) in the Operating Section The total cash flows received from both the sale of equipment and the sale of debt investment are investing activities and not operating activities. The net of the gain and loss is a gain of $16,000. To eliminate this gain, the $16,000 amount should be subtracted from net income. Since the gain would have increased net income, this subtraction ensures that the net effect on cash flow from operations is zero.

As part of the 2013 year end close, your company evaluates any potential liabilities related to 2013 activities that will be paid in 2014. The company ran an advertising campaign in December for which you agreed to pay $100,000, but you have not yet received the invoice. What would the journal entry look like to record this obligation?

In this case, your company has not received a bill but based on their evaluation concludes that there are obligations coming from 2013 activities that will have to be settled in 2014. These obligations are recorded as liabilities in 2013 because they relate to 2013 activities. You should debit Advertising Expenses for $100,000 and credit Accrued Expenses (a liability account) for $100,000.

A company has total depreciation/amortization costs of $86,000 hat adjustment would need to be made to Net Income to account for Depreciation and Amortization in calculating cash flow from Operating Activities using the indirect method?

Increase by $86,000 This is the correct answer! The adjustment to Net Income is an increase of $86,000, because $86,000 of Depreciation and Amortization expense was recognized during the year. By adding this amount back to Net Income, we eliminate the impact of this non-cash transaction.

What adjustments would need to be made in the Operating Section of the statement of cash flows prepared under the indirect method to account for the changes in the Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses account balances for Google? 12/31/12 12/31/13 Accts Pyble (2,012) Accts Pyble (2,453) Accrd Expns (9,776) Accrd Expns (10,446)

Increase of $441 for Accounts Payable and increase of $670 for Accrued Expenses Since Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses increased, it means that the cash paid was less than the expense recognized, so the adjustment is to record an increase related to both Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses.

Net Present Value NPV is the only one of the answer choices that is impacted by the discount rate.

Suppose there is a start-up service company that is growing fast. It has a positive Gross Profit, positive Operating Income, and negative Income Before Taxes. Is the negative Net Income sustainable in the long term? Suppose the company also has more Long Term Debt than Equity. What do you think the company should do to finance its growth opportunities?

No The company should probably raise more money through equity.

Suppose your company receives a large order from your best customer. Should this be treated as revenue and recorded on your company's books? (yes/no, why?)

No, because revenue is not considered earned until a product or service is delivered. To recognize revenue, collection of payment should be reasonably certain, but the company must also have delivered the product or performed the service. Since this is just an order, it is not yet a transaction to be recorded. No service or product has been delivered yet, so no revenue is recognized. Remember that in accrual accounting, the recognition of revenue does not necessarily occur at the same time as the receipt of cash.

The following are examples of ________. Salaries and wages Depreciation Selling, General and Admin expenses Marketing expense R&D Utilities expense Rent expense

A company is considering buying a diagnostic piece of equipment for $250,000. The machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis for 10 years with a salvage value of $40,000. The company expects the machine to be able to generate after-tax revenues of $33,000 in each of the 10 years, and then it will sell the machine for $40,000 at the end of 10 years. The sum of the undiscounted cash flows is $370,000. The discount rate is 7%. The net present value is calculated to be $2,112. Which of the following statements is true? The company should not buy the equipment because the NPV is less than the annual revenues expected. The company should not buy the equipment because the NPV is less than the initial cost of the equipment. The company should buy the equipment because the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is greater than the initial cost of the equipment. The company should buy the equipment because the NPV is positive.

The company should buy the equipment because the NPV is positive. As long as the NPV is positive, even if it is a very small positive number, it means the company will earn a return greater than its discount rate, so it is a good investment.

A company under IFRS standards decides to include interest paid in the Financing Section of their Statement of Cash Flows. How will this company's Statement of Cash Flows differ from how it would appear if the company were abiding by US GAAP standards?

The company under IFRS will have lower cash flow in the financing section and higher cash flow in the operating section than the company under US GAAP. The company under IFRS will have lower cash flow in the financing section and higher cash flow in the operating section because interest paid is a use of cash (so the financing section's cash flow is decreased). The company under US GAAP would be required to include interest paid in the operating section, which lowers cash flows for that section.
