How is a common-size income statement created?

A common size income statement is created by dividing each of the line items on the income statement for a year by the net sales or net revenues amount for that same year.

Explain how a company could have a decreasing gross profit margin.

A decreasing gross profit margin could occur if the sales prices or volume in a capital intensive company decreased or the cost of goods sold increased. Operating profit margin, while affected by the change in gross profit margin, is also affected by changes in operating expenses other than cost of goods sold. Significant decreases in operating expenses such as general and administrative, marketing and selling or research and development, for example, could cause operating profit margin to increase despite a decrease in gross profit margin

Silverago Incorporated, an international metals company, reported a loss on the sale of equipment of $2 million in 2010. In addition, the company's income statement shows depreciation expense of $8 million and the cash flow statement shows capital expenditure of $10 million, all of which was for the purchase of new equipment. Using the following information from the comparative balance sheets, how much cash did the company receive from the equipment sale? Balance Sheet Item 12/31/2009 12/31/2010 Change Equipment $100 million $105 million $5 million Accumulated depreciation—equipment $40 million $46 million $6 million A. $1 million. B. $2 million. C. $3 million.

A is correct. Selling price (cash inflow) minus book value equals gain or loss on sale; therefore, gain or loss on sale plus book value equals selling price (cash inflow). The amount of loss is given—$2 million. Beginning balance of equipment of $100 million plus equipment purchased of $10 million minus ending balance of equipment of $105 million equals the historical cost of equipment sold, or $5 million. Beginning accumulated depreciation of $40 million plus depreciation expense for the year of $8 million minus ending balance of accumulated depreciation of $46 million equals accumulated depreciation on the equipment sold, or $2 million. Therefore, the book value of the equipment sold was $5 million minus $2 million, or $3 million. Because the loss on the sale of equipment was $2 million, the amount of cash received must have been $1 million.

15. At the beginning of 2009, Glass Manufacturing purchased a new machine for its assembly line at a cost of $600,000.

8. During 2009, Argo Company sold 10 acres of prime commercial zoned land to a builder for $5,000,000. The builder gave Argo a $1,000,000 down payment and will pay the remaining balance of $4,000,000 to Argo in 2010. Argo purchased the land in 2002 for $2,000,000. Using the installment method, how much profit will Argo report for 2009? A. $600,000. B. $1,000,000. C. $3,000,000.

A. $600,000: The installment method apportions the cash receipt between cost recovered and profit using the ratio of profit to sales value (i.e., $3,000,000 ÷ $5,000,000 = 60 percent). Argo will, therefore, recognize $600,000 in profit for 2009 ($1,000,000 cash received × 60 percent).

Defined the following terms as they relate to the statement of Cash flows: cash, operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities

Cash includes cash and highly liquid short-term marketable securities, called cash equivalents.Operating activities include delivering or producing goods for sale and providing services and the cash effects of transactions and other events that enter into the determination of net income.Investing activities include acquiring and selling securities that are not cash equivalents, productive assets that are expected to benefit the firm for long periods of time and lending money and collecting on loans.Financing activities include borrowing from creditors and repaying the principal of debt and obtaining resources from owners and providing them with a return on investment.

Alpha Company purchased 30% of the voting common stock of Beta Company on January 1 and paid $500,000 for the investment. Beta Company reported $100,000 of earnings for the year and paid $40,000 in cash dividends. Calculate investment income and the balance sheet investment account for Alpha Company under the cost method and under the equity method.

Cost Method: Under the cost method, the company will report $500,000 as the balance sheet investment account (that is at the purchase price only). Alpha company's share in the dividend income which is $12,000 (40,000*30%) will be reported in the income statement as a revenue. Therefore, its investment income will be $12,000 only. ________ Equity Method: Under the equity method, the value of investment income will comprise of the share in Beta Company's net earnings which is $30,000 (100,000*30%). Since, we have already accounted for a share in the earnings of Beta Company, there is no need to record the receipt of dividend seperately. The balance sheet investment account is calculated with the use of following table: Investment in Beta Company Stock500,000Add Net Income (100,000*30%)30,000Less Cash Dividends (30,000*40%)12,000Investment Account Balance$518,000 ________ Tabular Representation: Investment IncomeInvestment Account BalanceCost Method$12,000$500,000Equity Method$30,000$518,000

How does the direct method differ from the indirect method

The direct method shows cash collections from customers, interest and dividends collected, other operating cash receipts, cash paid to suppliers and employees, interest paid, taxes paid, and other operating cash payments.The indirect method starts with net income and adjusts for deferrals; accruals; noncash items, such as depreciation and amortization; and nonoperating items, such as gains and losses on asset sales. The direct and indirect methods yield identical figures for net cash flow from operating activities because the underlying accounting concepts are the same.

Discuss the four items that are included in a company's comprehensive income.

The four items included in comprehensive income include: Foreign currency translation effects which are adjustments to the equity section of the balance sheet resulting from the translation of foreign financial statements. Unrealized gains and losses on investments in debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are reported in comprehensive income. Additional pension liabilities are reported as other comprehensive income when the accumulated benefit obligation is greater than the fair market value of plan assets less the balance in the accrued pension liability account or plus the balance in the deferred pension asset account. Cash flow hedges (derivatives designated as hedging the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction) are required to initially report any gain or loss from a change in the fair market value of the cash flow hedge in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassify the amount into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings.

What is the difference between a multiple - step and a single- step format of the earnings statement? Which form is the most useful for analysis?

The multiple-step format provides several intermediate profit measures: gross profit, operating profit, and earnings before income taxes. The single-step format groups revenues together and then deducts all categories to arrive at net earnings. The multiple-step format is the most useful for analysis.

Why is the bottom line figure, net income, not necessarily a good indicator of a firms' financial success?

The net income figure is based on accounting choices and estimates. The inventory valuation and depreciation methods chosen can vary significantly and impact differently on net income. Discretionary items such as advertising and repairs and maintenance can be manipulated to change the net income of a firm. Use of the equity method for investments may also distort net income. Nonrecurring and nonoperating items are included in net income. Net income also incorporates accounting changes and extraordinary items. Finally, net income does not equal cash flow.

Why is the statement of Cash flows a useful document

The statement of cash flows is a useful document because it is the only financial statement where the analyst can learn about cash generation in the firm. A positive net income figure on the income statement is ultimately insignificant unless a company can translate its earnings into cash.
