- Madeline is the sole proprietor of Maddie's Fine Art and wants to know whether she will have enough funds in her bank account to pay her bills over the next three months. She has $1,000 in her bank account after recently selling a painting, owes $500 to a vendor for paint and canvas, and expects an additional $500 in invoices in the next three months for other supplies. As her accountant, the best feedback you can give Madeline is: Assuming no additional sales over the next three months, Maddie's Fine Art has a current ratio of 1.0 and therefore has the necessary liquidity to pay its vendors. Madeline will need to sell at least one more painting for $500 to cover the invoices due within the next three months as Maddie's Fine art has a current ratio of 0.5. Madeline should consult with a bankruptcy attorney because Maddie's Fine Art has a current ratio of 0.75 and may not be able to pay any or all of its invoices within the next three months.

Your boss, Alfred Eagleton, took you to lunch during your first week and asked a favor. "Things have been a little slow lately, and we need to borrow a little cash to tide us over. Our inventory has been building up and the CFO wants to pledge the inventory as collateral for a short-term loan. But I have a better idea." Mr. Eagleton went on to describe his plan. "On July 1, 2021, the first day of the company's third quarter, we will sell $100,000 of inventory to the Harbaugh Corporation for $160,000. Harbaugh will pay us immediately and then we will agree to repurchase the merchandise in two months for $164,000. The $4,000 is Harbaugh's fee for holding the inventory and for providing financing. I already checked with Harbaugh's controller and he has agreed to the arrangement.

- Your friend, Diana Wood, recently completed the second year of her business and just received annual financial statements from her accountant. Wood finds the income statement and balance sheet informative but does not understand the statement of cash flows. She says the first section is especially confusing because it contains a lot of additions and subtractions that do not make sense to her. Wood adds, “The income statement tells me the business is more profitable than last year and that’s most important. If I want to know how cash changes, I can look at comparative balance sheets.” Required Write a half-page memorandum to your friend explaining the purpose of the statement of cash flows. Speculate as to why the first section is so confusing and how it might be rectified.arrow_forwardIn early 2008, Doc and Lyn McGee formed the McGee Cake Company. Doc did all the baking, and Lyn handled marketing and distribution. Because of increased sales, Doc left his other job, and Lyn followed shortly. The company hired additional workers to meet demand, but the fast growth led to cash-flow and capacity problems. Doc and Lyn approached a local bank for short-term financial help. What is the nature of the financial problem that Doc and Lyn are facing?arrow_forwardBob Jacobs wishes to expand his business and has borrowed $100,000. As a condition for making this loan, the bank requires that the business maintain a current ratio of at least 1.50. Business has been good but not great. The expansion costs have brought the current ratio down to 1.20 in the middle of December. Bob, as the owner of the business, is considering what might happen if he reports a current ratio of 1.4 to the bank. One possible action for Bob is to record in December $10,000 of revenue that the business will earn in January of next year. He thinks this is doable because the contract for this job has been signed. Journalize the revenue transaction and indicate how recording this revenue in December would affect the current ratio. Discuss whether it is ethical to record the revenue transaction in December. Identify the accounting principle relevant to this situation. and give the reasons underlying your conclusion. Propose an ethical action for Bob Jacobs.arrow_forward
