Cashflow - investing activity

Change in type of security

Purchase of bond at premuim

Present value = face x (PC of $1 at market rate for life of bond)


Present value of interest = face x stated rate x pv of ordinary annuity


Cost = pv of face + pv of interest


Premium = cost - face

Purchase of bond at discount

Cost= face x of par amount

Amortization of bond premium or discount

Carry value x market rate = interest revenue


Face value x purchase rate = interest received


Difference = amortization



Cash. Xxx


Int. Rev. Xxx


Investment. Disc. Prem.

Bad debt expense calculation, income statement approach

Matching principal,


% of credit sales is calculated and that amount is the entry


Bad debt expense. Xxx


Allowance. Xxx

Bad debt expense balance sheet approach

Total allowance is calculated by % of accounts receivable



Adjustment is made to make allowance account = the amount calculated

Factoring

Selling oc accounts receivable to a 3rd party


Credit cards are common example



Total receivables


- reserve (1 - % advance)


- factor fee


= accruing to factor


- interest


= amounts received immediately

COGS for manufavturing

Begin materials


+ purchases, freight - returns, discounts


- ending materials


= direct materials used in production


+ direct labor, over head costs


= total manufacturing costs for period


+ beginning WIP


- ending WIP


= COGS manufactured


+ beginning finished goods


- ending finished goods


= Cogs

Inventory balance calculation using moving average method

Recalculated for each purchase


Begin inventory (100 units, 20 each) 2,000


+ purchase 20 units for 32 each. 640


= 120 units. 2,640 or $22 each



Every sale decreases inventory for most recent inventory price, so a sale for above would be for $22 each item.

Weighted average inventory calculation

Periodic method



Begin inventory cost + cost of purchases


-------------------------------------------


Units at begin + number purchased



Begin inventory cost


+ purchases cost


- ending inventory (count * weighted avg.)


= COGS (units sold * weighted avg.)

Inventory valuation lower of cost or market

Ceiling = net realizeable value


Floor = NRV - normal profit


Market = replacement cost



Market is the value unless goes above ceiling or below floor.

Recognition of intangible goods, not goodwill

External- purchase price or fair value



Internal - legal fees, R& D is expensed as incurred

Deferred tax liability/asset

DTL- when gaap income > taxable income. Will owe more tax in the future



DTA - when gaap income < taxable income. Will receive tax credit or pay less tax in future

Switching from trading to available for sale securities

Any fv adjustment only occurs due change in fv from date of conversion to year end or sale.

Pension plans

Defined contribution plan


- benefits depend on contributions and earnings.


- no guaranteed amount, only guaranteed contrib.


- asset if contribute more than required.


Defined benefit plan


- defines amount of benefit employee receives


- actuarial and investment risk


- depend on life, employment, and compensation


- complex

Defined benefit pension plan expense calc.

Service cost


+ interest cost = begin PBO x Discount Rate


- expected return = fv x long term rate


+/- amort of g/l


+/- amort of prior service cost or credit


= net periodic pension expense



Difference between ending calc and pbo ending value = liability loss (positive) or liability gain (negative)



Asset gain/loss is the difference between expected and actual.



Net gain/loss = liability gain/loss +/- asset gain/loss

4 types of bonds

Mortgage- backed by assets like real estate


Debentures- backed by borrowers credit


Collateral trust- backed by securities


Guaranteed- guaranteed by a 3rd party

Pv and fv of annuities

Take the ordinary annuity x (1 + interest rate) for annuity due

Calc of bond pv

Must separate to 2 parts


PV of face amount ($1)


Pv of interest (face x stated rate) (annuity)

Amortization of bond premium or discount

Carry value of bond


X market rate


= interest expense


- cash paid


= amortization



Into. Exp. Xxxx


Premium amort. xxxx


Discount anort. Xxxx


Cash. Xxxx

One of the 4 indicators of a capital lease

1) provides for transfer of ownership


2) bargain purchase option


3) term is at least 75% of useful life


4) Pv of payments at least 90% of fair value

Asset acquisition vs business combination

Recognition of business combination costs

Acquisition costs - expenses incurred


Direct issue of stock costs - expenses to APIC


Indirect issue of stock costs - expenses as incurred


Debt issue costs - direct deduction from carry amount of debt

Business combination- acquisition method

Fmv at acquisition date



Also consider contingent consideration - promises from acquirer to the former owners also at fmv of acquisition date. If with assets revalued each statement date. If with equity no revaluation.



Equity account of aquiree are irrelevant.


Which includes non-controlling ownership which is recorded separately in the balance sheet

Goodwill calculation

Consideration transferred


+ noncontrolling interest


Consideration transferred + noncontrolling interest- carrying amount of net assets (assets-liabilities) - excess fair value of assets = goodwill


Consideration transferred + noncontrolling interest- carrying amount of net assets (assets-liabilities) - excess fair value of assets = goodwill


- carrying amount of net assets (assets-liabilities)


- excess fair value of assets


= goodwill

Quick ratio
