Hanson Company is constructing a building. Construction began on February 1 and was completed on December 31. Expenditures were \(1,800,000 on March 1, \)1,200,000 on June 1, and \(3,000,000 on December 31.

New machinery, which replaced a number of employees, was installed and put in operation in the last month of the fiscal year. The employees had been dismissed after payment of an extra month鈥檚 wages, and this amount was added to the cost of the machinery. Discuss the propriety of the charge. If it was improper, describe the proper treatment.

Tones Company purchased a warehouse in a downtown district where land values are rapidly increasing. Gerald Carter, controller, and Wilma Ankara, financial vice president, are trying to allocate the cost of the purchase between the land and the building. Noting that depreciation can be taken only on the building, Carter favors placing a very high proportion of the cost on the warehouse itself, thus reducing taxable income and income taxes. Ankara, his supervisor, argues that the allocation should recognize the increasing value of the land, regardless of the depreciation potential of the warehouse. Besides, she says, net income is negatively impacted by additional depreciation and will cause the company鈥檚 stock price to go down.

Instructions

Answer the following questions.

  1. What stakeholder interests are in conflict?
  2. What ethical issues does Carter face?
  3. How should these costs be allocated?
