Using the information provided in the above balance sheet, answer the following questions: 1. Compute the current ratio for both years presented and provide your comments regarding this ratio year over year. Round your answer to two decimal places. Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities Current ratio (2015) = 4,760.7 / 4,049.2 = 1.18 Current ratio (2014) = 4,168.7 / 3,038.7 = 1.37 The company's 2015 current ratio is lower when compared to the one in 2014. It indicates that the company's liquidity is weakening. The current ratio deals with the relationship between current assets and current liabilities. It is calculated by dividing current assets by current liabilities. The current ratio measures the ability to pay current liabilities with current assets. A high current ratio is preferable to a low current ratio. A high current ratio means a company has plenty of current assets to pay current liabilities. An increasing current ratio from one period to the next indicates an improvement in financial position. Calculation of ratio: 1 MARK Explanation: 2 MARKS

2. Compute the company's debt to total assets ratio for both years presented and provide your comments regarding this ratio year over year. Debt to total assets = total liabilities / total assets Debt to total assets (2015) = 7,010.5 / 12,868.8 = 0.54 Debt to total assets (2014) = 5,479.2 / 10,752.9 = 0.51 The company's 2015 debt-to-total assets is higher when compared to the one in 2014. It appears that debt financing as opposed to equity financing has increased in 2015. The debt ratio deals with the relationship between total debt and total assets. It is calculated by dividing total liabilities by total assets. The debt ratio indicates the proportion of a company's assets that are financed with debt and measures the ability of a business to pay both current and longterm debts. A low debt ratio is preferable to a high debt ratio. A company with a small amount of liabilities has low required payments on debt. Such a company is unlikely to get into financial difficulties. Calculation of ratio: 1 MARK Explanation: 2 MARKS
3. For each of the actions listed below, determine what would happen to the current ratio. Assume nothing else on the balance sheet changes and that net working capital is positive. a. Accounts receivable are fully collected in cash
Current ratio does not change 1 MARK
b. Long-term debt are paid off with cash
Current ratio decreases 1 MARK

Part E: Revenue Recognition Following are three independent situations that occurred for each of the companies described below. All transactions and events occurred between January 1, 2014 and to the end of their accounting period December 31, 2014. None of the events have been recorded in the books of the respective companies. Situation 1: On December 31, 2014, AYSE Corporation sold a piece of equipment to one of its customers for $200,000 and collected $80,000 cash on that date. The remainder of $120,000 plus 10% interest is payable on December 31, 2015. AYSE Corporation will deliver the piece of equipment the first week of January 2015 because of a snowstorm which delayed delivery on December 31, 2014. Situation 2: On January 5, 2014, SeJo Corporation collected $450 cash for a three-year subscription to Kemosabe Magazine for a monthly magazine. SeJo Corporation published and delivered the first issue in March 2014 and every month following as scheduled. Situation 3: On January 1, 2014, the law firm of Vestale and Chester collected $30,000 from a client and agreed to provide legal services over a 3 year contract period (2014 thru 2016). The law firm has no reliable method of estimating the costs of providing the services nor the actual timing of the services. For each situation given above, answer the following questions: a. Describe the revenue recognition method that should be used and briefly explain the reasoning. Determine the amount of revenue to be recognized in 2014. SITUATION 1 Delivery of goods would be the critical event and should be used as the revenue recognition method adopted by the company. The company would have to establish when the risk and rewards of ownership over the goods would be transferred to the customer. A delivery point will need to be selected. As for the interest on the loan, this would simply be recorded as a function of time. No revenue would be recorded for 2014 as the delivery occurred after December 31, 2014 despite the weather related delay and interest revenue will only be earned in 2015. Revenue (2014) = 0 3 MARKS

MGCR 211 - All Sections, Midterm Exam, October 16, 2015 12pm-2pm SITUATION 2 Delivery of goods would be the critical event and should be used as the revenue recognition method adopted by the company. The company would recognize revenue as each monthly magazine is delivered to the subscriber. Revenue of $125 would be recorded for 2014 as the delivery occurred for the March-December 2014 issues. Computed as $450 x 10/36. Revenue (2014) = 150 3 MARKS
SITUATION 3 Percentage of completion Provision of services would be the critical event and should be used as the revenue recognition method adopted by the company. However, the company would recognize revenue as each year is fulfilled under the contract. The company has no other basis of estimating the cost of rendering the services or timing, a reasonable method would be to use the period of the contract. Revenue of $10,000 would be recorded for 2014 as the one-third of the contract would be fulfilled. Computed as $30,000 x 1/3. Revenue (2014) = 10,000 3 MARKS
