Charlie Brown, the controller for Kelly Corporation, is preparing the company’s income statement at year-end. He notes that the company lost a considerable sum on the sale of some equipment it had decided to replace. Since the company has sold equipment routinely in the past, Brown knows the losses cannot be reported as an unusual item. He also does not want to highlight it as a material loss since he feels that will reflect poorly on him and the company. He reasons that if the company had recorded more depreciation during the assets’ lives, the losses would not be so great. Since depreciation is included among the company’s operating expenses, he wants to report the losses along with the company’s expenses, where he hopes it will not be noticed.

Instructions

  1. What are the ethical issues involved?
  2. What should Brown do?

Presented below are changes in all the account balances of Fritz Mayhew Furniture Co. during the current year, except for retained earnings.

Increase Increase

(Decrease) (Decrease)

Cash \(79,000 Accounts Payable

Accounts Receivable (net) \)45,000 Bonds Payable \(82,000

Inventory \)127,000 Common Stock \(125,000

Investments (47,000) Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par \)13,000

Instructions

Compute the net income for the current year, assuming that there were no entries in the Retained Earnings account except for net income and a dividend declaration of $19,000 which was paid in the current year.

Wade Corp. has 150,000 shares of common stock outstanding. In 2017, the company reports income from continuing operations before income tax of \(1,210,000. Additional transactions not considered in the \)1,210,000 are as follows.

1. In 2017, Wade Corp. sold equipment for \(40,000. The machine had originally cost \)80,000 and had accumulated depreciation of \(30,000. The gain or loss is considered non-recurring.

2. The company discontinued operations of one of its subsidiaries during the current year at a loss of \)190,000 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations. The loss from operations of the discontinued subsidiary was \(90,000 before taxes; the loss from disposal of the subsidiary was \)100,000 before taxes.

3. An internal audit discovered that amortization of intangible assets was understated by \(35,000 (net of tax) in a prior period. The amount was charged against retained earnings.

4. The company recorded a non-recurring gain of \)125,000 on the condemnation of some of its property (included in the $1,210,000).

Instructions

Analyze the above information and prepare an income statement for the year 2017, starting with income from continuing operations before income tax. Compute earnings per share as it should be shown on the face of the income statement. (Assume a total effective tax rate of 38% on all items, unless otherwise indicated.)

Maher Inc. reported income from continuing operations before taxes during 2017 of \(790,000. Additional transactions occurring in 2017 but not considered in the \)790,000 are as follows.

  1. The corporation experienced an uninsured flood loss in the amount of \(90,000 during the year.
  2. 2. At the beginning of 2015, the corporation purchased a machine for \)54,000 (salvage value of \(9,000) that had a useful life of 6 years. The bookkeeper used straight-line depreciation for 2015, 2016, and 2017, but failed to deduct the salvage value in computing the depreciation base.
  3. Sale of securities held as a part of its portfolio resulted in a loss of \)57,000 (pretax).
  4. When its president died, the corporation realized \(150,000 from an insurance policy. The cash surrender value of this policy had been carried on the books as an investment in the amount of \)46,000 (the gain is nontaxable).
  5. The corporation disposed of its recreational division at a loss of \(115,000 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations.
  6. The corporation decided to change its method of inventory pricing from average-cost to the FIFO method. The effect of this change on prior years is to increase 2015 income by \)60,000 and decrease 2016 income by $20,000 before taxes. The FIFO method has been used for 2017. The tax rate on these items is 40%.

Instructions

Prepare an income statement for the year 2017 starting with income from continuing operations before taxes. Compute earnings per share as it should be shown on the face of the income statement. Common shares outstanding for the year are 120,000 shares. (Assume a tax rate of 30% on all items, unless indicated otherwise.)
