A company is raising money by issuing shares and wants her to invest $20,000 (her recent inheritance from her greataunt's estate). Your friend has never invested in a company before and, knowing that you are a financial analyst, asks that you look over the statement of financial position and send her some advice.

CP3-6 Proper Measurement of Net Earnings LO33 (Requirment 1 only) Paula Manolakos purchased La Fort Inc., a bakery, from Gianni Fiori. The purchase agreement included a provision that required Paula to pay Gianni 25 percent of the bakery's net earnings in each of the next five years. The agreement stated that the bakery's net earnings would be measured in a \"fair and reasonable manner,\" but did not state that it would be measured in accordance with the applicable financial reporting standards. Neither Paula nor Gianni was familiar with accounting concepts. In measuring net earnings, Paula used the following accounting policies: a. Revenue was recognized when cash was received from customers. Because of the nature of the business, most customers paid in cash, but a few customers purchased merchandise on account and were allowed to pay in 30 days. b. Paula set her annual salary at $60,000, which Gianni has agreed was reasonable. She also paid $30,000 per year to her spouse and to each of her two teenage children. These family members did not work in the business on a regular basis, but they did help during busy periods. c. Weekly expenditures for eggs, milk, flour, and other supplies were charged directly to supplies expense, as were the weekly groceries for Paula's family. d. The bakery had modern baking equipment valued at $50,000 at the time Paula purchased the company. The statement of earnings for the first year included a $50,000 equipment expense related to these assets. e. Income taxes expense included the amount paid by the corporation (which was computed correctly), as well as the personal income taxes paid by various members of Paula's family on the salaries they earned for working in the business. Gianni was disappointed, however, when Paula reported net earnings for the first year that was far below his expectations. Required: 1. Discuss the fairness and reasonableness of Paula's accounting policies. Identify the accounting principle or assumption that may have been violated. 2. Do you think that the net cash flow from operations (cash receipts minus cash payments) is higher or lower than the net earnings reported by Paula? Explain. 3. What advice would you give Gianni to ensure that the bakery's net earnings would be measured properly in future years? Excel Templates Alternate Problem 2-5 Student Name: Class: Given Data: BCE INC.

ACCOUNT NAMES-When you click on a cell in the "Accounts" column, a downward-pointing arrow will appear at the far right of the cell. Clicking on the arrow will cause a menu of account names to appear. The names are listed in the following order: assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. To select an account name, simply click on it. To indent names of accounts you are crediting, do not type blank spaces in front of the account name (that is normally poor practice when building spreadsheets). Instead, do the following: 1. Click on the tab for the Home ribbon. 2. Select the cell containing the account name you wish to indent. 3. Click on the \"Increase Indent\" icon in the Alignment section of the Home ribbon. FINANCIAL STATEMENT EFFECTS-When you click on a cell in the "FSE" column, a downwardpointing arrow will appear at the far right of the cell. Clicking on the arrow will cause a menu of financial statement effects to appear. For each line of the journal entry indicate whether: 1) Assets increased (choose + A) 2) Assets decreased (choose - A) 3) Liabilities increased (choose + L) 4) Liabilities decreased (choose - L) 5) Shareholders' equity increased (choose + SE) 6) Shareholders' equity decreased (choose - SE) EXPLANATIONS-Four rows are given for each entry; the fourth row can be used for an explanation if your instructor requires one. If your explanation uses more than one row, you will have to increase the height of the row as follows: 1. Select the row header at the far left of the worksheet. (For example, if you wish to increase the height of Row 52, click on the \"52\" at the far left of the worksheet. The entire row should then be selected.) 2. Put the mouse cursor over the bottom border of the row. The cursor's appearance will change to two arrows (one pointing up, the other down) separated by a line. 3. Holding the left mouse key down, drag the mouse until the row is the desired height. If a transaction does not require a journal entry, type "No entry required" for an explanation.
