A1-10 Impact of Differing Objectives:
Privately owned BlueScreen Corporation is primarily a retailer of computer equipment for individuals and small business. The
effective cost of computer equipment and peripherals, at both the retail and manufacturing levels, has been declining rapidly for many
years and shows every sign of continuing that decline.
The company also develops software intended for small business applications-that is, for companies with up to 500 employees. The
software is sold in BlueScreen's own stores as well as through the company website. However, most sales come through general
software distributors (e.g., Download.com).
For sales through the distributors, purchasers can obtain a 30-day limited-feature trial by paying an initial fee equal to 10% of the retail
price of the software. If the customer decides to buy after 30 days, the trial fee is credited to the total cost of the purchase.
On average, about two-thirds of the trials result in final purchase. Software development is a continuous process, including
updates of existing software.
Page 34
Some of BlueScreen's accounting issues are as follows:
1. What inventory methods should be used foretail merchandise in its stores and warehouses.
2. How the software development cost should be accounted for.
3. How the company should account for tangible capital assets, such as the warchouse building (which it owns), stores (which are
leased), and store fixtures.
4. All of the company's personnel-retail, managerial, and software development-are sent annually to proféssional development
programs to keep their skills at the cutting edge of performance. The company spends many millions of dollars on these programs
every year.
5. The company opens an average of 20 new stores every year. About five stores are closed every year.
Required:
Using the chart below, indicate the accounting policies the company should choose for each of these issues under each of three
different primary financial reporting objectives:
1. Earnings maximization
2. Cash flow prediction
3. Earnings minimization
