Problem 14-55 (Algo) Economic Value Added (LO 14-4) Biddle Company uses EVA to evaluate the performance of division managers. For the Wallace Division, after-tax divisional income was $665,000 in year 3. The company adjusts the after-tax income for advertising expenses. First, it adds the annual advertising expenses back to after-tax divisional income. Second, the company managers believe that advertising has a three-year positive effect on the sale of the company's products, so it amortizes advertising over three years. Advertising expenses in year 1 will be expensed 55 percent, 35 percent in year 2, and 10 percent in year 3. Advertising expenses in year 2 will be expensed 55 percent, 35 percent in year 3, and 10 percent in year 4. Advertising expenses in year 3 will be amortized 55 percent, 35 percent in year 4, and 10 percent in year 5. Third, unamortized advertising expenses become part of the divisional investment in the EVA calculations. Wallace Division incurred advertising expenses of $176,000 in year 1 and $326,000 in year 2. It incurred $386,000 of advertising in year 3. Before considering the unamortized advertising, the Wallace Division had total assets of $6,950,000 and current liabilities of $1,030,000 at the beginning of year 3.
