On January 1, 2020, Stream Company acquired 30 percent of the outstanding voting shares of Q-Video, Inc., for $770,000. Q-Video manufactures specialty cables for computer monitors. On that date, Q-Video reported assets and liabilities with book values of $1.9 million and $700,000, respectively. A customer list compiled by Q-Video had an appraised value of $300,000, although it was not recorded on its books. The expected remaining life of the customer list was five years with straight-line amortization deemed appropriate. Any remaining excess cost was not identifiable with any particular asset and thus was considered goodwill. Q-Video generated net income of $250,000 in 2020 and a net loss of $100,000 in 2021. In each of these two years, Q-Video declared and paid a cash dividend of $15,000 to its stockholders. During 2020, Q-Video sold inventory that had an original cost of $100,000 to Stream for $160,000. Of this balance, $80,000 was resold to outsiders during 2020, and the remainder was sold during 2021. In 2021, Q-Video sold inventory to Stream for $175,000. This inventory had cost only $140,000. Stream resold $100,000 of the inventory during 2021 and the rest during 2022. For 2020 and then for 2021, compute the amount that Stream should report as income from its investment in Q-Video in its external financial statements under the equity method. (Enter your answers in whole dollars and not in millions. Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Answer:

Stream Company

The amount that Stream Company should report as income from its investment in Q-Video in its external financial statements under the equity method:

2020 = $75,000

2021 = ($30,000)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Equity share in Q-Video, Inc. = 30%

Cost of equity investment = $770,000

Q-Video Profits and dividends     Stream's share                

2020 net income = $250,000     $75,000 ($250,000 * 30%)

2021 net loss of $100,000          ($30,000) ($100,000 * 30%)

2020 dividends = $15,000             $4,500 ($15,000 * 30%)

2021 dividends = $15,000              $4,500 ($15,000 * 30%)

b)The equity method is used by Stream Company because its investment in Q-Video, Inc. is less than 51% and more than 20%.  Under the equity method, Stream accounts for its share of net income and net loss.  The investment is initially recorded at cost.  Adjustments are then made to the cost balance at the end of every period by increasing it with the share of net income and decreasing it with its share of net loss and dividends received.

You are the manager of two plants (factories) in Mexico that manufacture shoes. The combined monthly output of both plants is to be 10,000 pairs of shoes. How you would best divide this output of 10,000 pairs of shoes between the two plants. You may make your arguments in words with the aid of diagrams, i.e., without the use of math. On the other hand, if you are comfortable with math (calculus), the following additional information may be made use of by you. The cost function of Plant 1 is C1 = a1Q1 + a2Q12 + Q13and that of Plant 2 is C2 = b1Q2 + b2Q22 + Q23, where Q1 and Q2 denote, respectively, the outputs of Plant 1 and Plant 2.

The state of Oregon's wine industry specializes in the production of Pinot Noir wine, a type of red wine. Oregon's Pinot Noir is very similar to wines made in Santa Barbara and the Burgundy region of France. Oregon's Pinot Noir is also known to pair well with lamb, that is, many people choose to drink Pinot Noir while eating lamb.

For many years, states levy a special sales tax on wine often called a "sin tax". The reasoning behind these special sales taxes is that wine consumption can lead to particular social costs such as drunk driving, violence, etc.

However, many medical studies have demonstrated that moderate consumption of red wine can lower the risks for many diseases such as coronary heart disease. Thus, there are social benefits as well.

Suppose that states, in recognition of some of the benefits to wine consumption, decide to decrease the sales tax on Oregon Pinot Noir. What effect will this have on consumer surplus, producer surplus and deadweight loss.
A. Consumer surplus increases, producer surplus increases, the deadweight loss decreases.
B. Consumer surplus decreases, producer surplus decreases, the deadweight loss decreases.
C. Consumer surplus decreases, producer surplus increases, the deadweight loss is unchanged.
D. Consumer surplus increases, producer surplus increases, the deadweight loss increases.

Scenario
You are the marketing analyst for Better Beans Coffee Company, which has nine stores nationwide. The company wants to build two additional stores. Your executive team has decided that rather than expand to new markets, they want Better Beans to begin opening additional stores in existing markets. While this will create cannibalization in the short term, it will create marketing and operating efficiencies as more stores are opened in each city.
As a scrappy and growing startup, Better Beans does not yet have access to complex marketing analytics software. Fortunately, you are an expert at gathering market data from inside and outside the company and crunching accurate numbers with nothing more than an Excel spreadsheet.
You have been tasked with calculating the two best markets for opening an additional store. You have already calculated two things that allow you to estimate the net additional revenue in each market ueafter adding a second store:
Revenue for a second store in each market
The revenue lost from estimated cannibalization at the first store.
Important note: Due to the high investments already made in existing stores, management has specified that any market where cannibalization is 25% or more should be eliminated from consideration.
Ignoring cannibalization rates for now, what two markets have the highest net revenue increases when adding a second store?
A. Dallas and Portland
B. Los Angeles and Orlando
C. Chicago and Dallas
D. Orlando and Dallas
E. Los Angeles and Portland
What two markets should be chosen for a second store based on management's criteria that the cannibalization rate for the existing store should be less than 25%? Note: Cannibalization rates and net revenue increase amounts need to be considered when making this determination.

Tullius Corporation has received a request for a special order of 8,600 units of product C64 for $45.50 each. The normal selling price of this product is $50.60 each, but the units would need to be modified slightly for the customer. The normal unit product cost of product C64 is computed as follows:
Direct materials $ 16.30
Direct labor 5.60
Variable manufacturing overhead 2.80
Fixed manufacturing overhead 5.70
Unit product cost $ 30.40
Direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The customer would like some modifications made to product C64 that would increase the variable costs by $5.20 per unit and that would require a one-time investment of $45,000 in special molds that would have no salvage value. This special order would have no effect on the company's other sales. The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order.
Required: Determine the effect on the company's total net operating income of accepting the special order.

On October 21, 2004, Abitibi-Consolidated Inc., a large Canadian-based newsprint and groundwood producer, reported net income for its third quarter, 2004, of $182 million. This compares with a net loss for the same quarter of 2003 of $70 million. Sales for the quarter were up, to $1528 million, and earnings excluding low persistence items, was a loss of $27 million. the low - persistence items included a gain of $239 million before tax from foreign exchange conversion. Much of the company's long term debt is denominated in US dollars. The foreign exchange gain arose because of the rising value of the Canadian dollar, relative to the US dollar, during the quarter. Comparable figures for the third quarter of 2003 were as follows: sales of $ 1,340 mil-lion, a loss before low- persistence items of $ 32 million, and foreign exchange conversion gain of $ 13 million. There is no mention of R& D costs in the company’s third quarter report. Its 2003 annual report mentions R& D only in passing, with reference to forest conservation. Presumably, R& D expenditures are relatively low. Abitibi- Consolidated’s share price rose $ 0.59 to $ 7.29 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on October 21, 2004. The S& P/ TSX Composite index gained 59 points to close at 8,847 on the same day. According to media reports, the increases were driven by a "red- hot" materials and energy sect
