Paxel Construction Company has a $30 million contract to construct a building. It estimates that it will take three years to complete the project. The estimated cost of the project is $21 million. Paxel incurs costs amounting to $10.5 million in Year 1, $7.35 million in Year 2, and $3.15 million in Year 3. If the outcome of the contract can be reliably measured, what is the net profit recognized in year 3? $4.5 million $1.35 million $3.15 million

First we calculate the percentage of total costs incurred in each year. YR 1 10.50 / 21 = 50%; YR 2 7.35 / 21 = 35%, and YR 3 3.15 / 21 = 15%. Then we multiply the percentage of total costs incurred each year by the total revenue earned over the term of the project to determine the amount of revenue recognized each year. YR 1 $30 x 50% = $15, YR 2 $30 x 35% = 10.5, and YR 3 $30 x 15% = $4.5. Finally, subtract each year's revenue from each year's given level of expenses to equal yearly profit. YR 1 15.00 - 10.50 = 4.50; YR 2 10.50 - 7.35 = 3.13; YR 3 4.50 - 3.15 = $1.35 million

A travel agent purchases discounted tickets and sells them to customers. The agent pays only for the tickets that she manages to sell to customers. She purchases a ticket for $1,000 and sells it for $1,100. Assume that there are no other revenues and expenses involved. What is the reporting of revenues under gross and net reporting and which is the correct method under IFRS and GAAP? Gross Reporting of $100 and Net Reporting of $1,100. Either method is correct Gross Reporting of $1,100 and Net Reporting of $100. The Gross Method is correct Gross Reporting of $1,100 and Net Reporting of $100. The Net Method is correct

Gross Reporting of $1,100 and Net Reporting of $100. The Net Method is correct The travel agent should report revenue on a net basis because: She pays only for tickets that she is able to sell to customers. Therefore, she does not bear any inventory risk. The airline, not the travel agent, is the primary obligator under the contract.

Howard and Co. should report revenue on a net basis because: It only pays for tickets that it is able to sell to customers. Therefore, it does not bear any inventory risk. Howard is not the primary obligor under the contract. Therefore, Howard will recognize revenue equal to (1,650 - 1,500) 20,000 = $3 million.

MSK sold property worth $1,850,000 and allowed the buyer to make the payment in installments. MSK itself had bought the property 5 years ago for $1,140,000.

The amount of profit that will be recognized in Year 2, given that the collectability of revenues is highly uncertain is closest to:

If the collectability of revenues is highly uncertain, the cost‐recovery method is used and profits are only recognized once the total cash collections exceed total costs. Since total cash received by the company ($950,000) does not exceed the cost of the property ($1,140,000), MSK will not recognize any profits in Year 2.

Panorama Inc. invests $5,000,000 in a 10% semiannual coupon fixedincome security. After six months, Panorama receives the first coupon payment of $250,000. Additionally, interest rates have declined over the period, and the value of the securities has increased by $1,000,000. If Panorama treats the securities as Available for Sale, the $1,000,000 unrealized gain will be included as: An unrealized gain of $1,000,000 on the income statement An increase of $1,000,000 in retained earnings Increase of $1,000,000 in other comprehensive income

Increase of $1,000,000 in other comprehensive income

During 2009, Royal Superstores saw its accounts receivable and inventory increase by $5,600 and $3,700 respectively. At the same time, its accounts payable increased by $2,500.

The following information relates to Alpha One Ltd. for the year ended 2009: Net income = $2,360,000 10% preferred stock = $500,000 Dividends paid to common shareholders = $44,000 Weighted average number of shares outstanding = $500,000 The company also has 500 convertible preferred shares outstanding, which pay a dividend of $75 per share every year. Each convertible preferred share can be converted into 50 common shares. Alpha One's basic and diluted earnings per share are closest to: Basic EPS ($) Diluted EPS ($) I 4.65 4.5 II 4.55 4.4 III 4.62 4.42

Preferred dividend = 500,000 × 0.1 = $50,000 Dividend paid on convertible preferred stock = 500 × 75 = $37,500 Basic EPS = (2,360,000 - 50,000 - 37,500) / 500,000 = $4.545 In calculating diluted EPS, it is assumed that convertible preferred shares are converted into common shares. Hence, no dividend is paid on them and the number of converted shares is added to the denominator. Number of converted shares = 500 × 50 = 25,000 Diluted EPS = (2,360,000 - 50,000) / (500,000 + 25,000) = $4.4

Bingo Inc. sold property worth $500,000 and allowed the buyer to make the payment in installments. The cost of the property sold is $300,000. The first installment of $250,000 has been received in Year 1, while the rest of the payment is expected to be received in Year 2. Calculate the amount of profit that will be recognized each year using the Installment sales method.

Profit (Year 1) = (250,000/500,000) × 200,000 = $100,000. Profit (Year 2) = (250,000/500,000) × 200,000 = $100,000.

A company incurs the following costs on a particular project: Year 20X6 20X7 20X8 Total Cost Incurred in thousands 500 700 300 1,500 The total revenue from the project is expected to be $2,000,000. Under the percentage‐of‐completion method, the project's net income in 20X8 is closest to:

Profit recognized in 20X8 = (300,000/1,500,000) (2,000,000 - 1,500,000) = $100,000

The following information relates to Beta Inc. for the year ended 20x8: Shares outstanding on January 1, 20x8 = 2,000,000 3‐2 stock split on March 1, 20x8 Shares issued on July 31, 20x8 = 200,000 5% stock dividend on October 31, 20x8 Shares repurchased on December 1, 2008 = 100,000 Shares outstanding on December 31, 20x8 = 2,800,000 Beta Inc. reported net income of $3.34 million for the year ended 20x8. The company's EPS is closest to: $1.03 $1.19 $1.09

Shares outstanding on January 1 2,000,000 3‐for‐2 stock split 1,000,000 3,000,000 5% stock dividend 150,000 Shares outstanding since January 1 (12 months) 3,150,000 Shares issued on July 31 200,000 5% stock dividend 10,000 Shares outstanding since July 31 (for 5 months) 210,000 Shares repurchased on December 1 (not outstanding for a month) 100,000 Weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding = (3,150,000 × 12/12) + (210,000 × 5/12) − (100,000 × 1/12) = 3,150,000 + 87,500 − 8,333.33 = 3,229,166.67 Basic EPS = 3,340,000 / 3,229,166.67 = $1.034

Xingia Inc. earns profits of $2,500,000 for the year ended December 31, 20x8. Xingia has 1,000,000 shares outstanding during the year and pays taxes at the rate of 40%. Xingia paid preference dividends amounting to $50,000 in 20x8. The average market price of Xingia's stock over the year was $50. Xingia has 10,000 stock options outstanding, which have an exercise price of $30. Calculate Xingia's diluted EPS for 20x8. $2.45 Non-Dilutive EPS $2.44 Diluted EPS $2.45 Diluted EPS

Since the average market price exceeds the exercise price of the options, they should be assumed to have been exercised. Number of common shares issued to option holders = 10,000 Cash proceeds from exercise of options = $300,000 (10,000 shares × $30) Number of shares that can be purchased at average market price with these funds = $300,000/$50 = 6,000 Net increase in common shares outstanding from the exercise of options = 10,000 − 6,000 = 4,000 Diluted EPS = $2,500,000 − $50,000 / (1,000,000 + 10,000 − 6,000) = $2.44 Diluted EPS ($2.44) is lower than basic EPS ($2.45). Therefore, the options are dilutive and should be considered in the calculation of diluted EPS.

Jacob wants to calculate and compare the financial ratios of two companies, Alpha Inc. and Beta Inc. He observes the following: • Alpha Inc. has acquired several subsidiaries and has recognized the associated goodwill amounting to $40,000. Further, the company has recognized impairment of goodwill amounting to $5,000. • Beta Inc. has recognized internally generated goodwill amounting to $32,000. Which of the following statements is least accurate regarding adjustments to be made by Jacob to the two companies' financial statements in order to make their ratios comparable? Both of the companies' goodwill should be excluded from the balance sheet. The impairment expense of $5,000 should be added back to Alpha Inc.'s income statement. Only Beta Inc.'s goodwill should be excluded from the balance sheet, as it has been generated internally.

The impairment expense of $5,000 should be added back to Alpha Inc.'s income statement.

Paxel Construction Company has a $30 million contract to construct a building. It estimates that it will take three years to complete the project. The estimated cost of the project is $21 million. Paxel incurs costs amounting to $10.5 million in Year 1, $7.35 million in Year 2, and $3.15 million in Year 3. If the outcome of the contract cannot be reliably measured, under IFRS what is the net profit recognized in year 3?

Under IFRS, if the outcome of the contract cannot be measured reliably and it is probable that costs will be recovered, revenue may only be recognized to the extent of contract costs incurred. Year 1: The company will recognize construction costs amounting to $10.5 million as well as revenue of $10.5 million and hence $0 income. Year 2: The company will recognize construction costs amounting to $7.35 million as well as revenue of $7.35 million and hence $0 income. Year 3: The company will recognize construction costs amounting to $3.15 million. Further, since the contract is complete, the company will also recognize the remaining revenue of $12.15 million, and therefore report $9 million in net income.

Under the cost-recovery method, the company will not recognize any profits in Year 1 because total cash received from the buyer ($250,000) does not exceed the cost of the property ($300,000). If the second installment of $250,000 is received in Year 2, Bingo will recognize a profit of $200,000 in Year 2.

Which of the following statements most accurately defines the completed‐contract method for recognizing revenue? Under this method, profits are recognized as cash is received. Under this method, revenue is only recognized to the extent of costs incurred during the period. Under this method, no revenues or costs are recognized on the income statement until the entire project is completed.

Under this method, no revenues or costs are recognized on the income statement until the entire project is completed.

Paxel Construction Company has a $30 million contract to construct a building. It estimates that it will take three years to complete the project. The estimated cost of the project is $21 million. Paxel incurs costs amounting to $10.5 million in Year 1, $7.35 million in Year 2, and $3.15 million in Year 3. Under the completed contract method, what is the net profit recognized in year 3?

Under this method, no revenues or costs are recognized until the contract is completed. Therefore, for the first two years, Paxel will not recognize any revenues and costs. The entire amount of revenues, costs, and net income will be recognized in Year 3 on the income statement. On the balance sheet, for Years 1 and 2, Paxel would report all incurred costs under a "Construction-in-progress" head, which would be eliminated in Year 3. 30-21=9
