Answer:

A.

2015 37.7

2016 12.9

B. Yes

Explanation:

Computation of the times interest earned ratios for 2016 and 2015

First step is to find the EBIT

EBIT: 2016 $ 2015 $

Gross profit 44,500 58,400

Less Selling, General and Administrative expenses (36,900) (38,800)

EBIT 7,600 19,600

Second step is to compute the times interest earned ratios for 2016 and 2015 using this formula

Time interest earned = EBIT / Interest expense

Let plug in the formula

Time interest earned 2016 2015

EBIT $7,600 $19,600

÷Interest expense $590 $520

=Time interest earned 12.9 37.7

Therefore the Time interest earned will be :

2015 37.7

2016 12.9

2. Yes Computer Tycoon generate sufficient net income in both 2015 and 2016 before taxes and interest in order to cover the cost of debt financing.

Indiana Co. began a construction project in 2016 with a contract price of $150 million to be received when the project is comple
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The correct option is C. Recognize $9 million Gross Profit in 2016.

Explanation:

IFRS-15 states that a 4-step approach should be followed when the performance obligation is satisfied over a period of Time. In-this case, the performance obligation will be satisfied within three years from 2016 to 2018.

4-step Approach:

1) First of all you have to calculate the over gain/loss of the project, and the result will decide the entries to be made. In this case, the contract price is $150m and the total costs (Costs incurred + Expected Costs) are $120m. This gives us a Profit of $30m.

2) In the second step, we have to determine the progress of the contract, It means that how much work have we done so far. There are two methods to calculate the progress: Input Method and the Output Method. Based on the data available, we will go for Input Method. To calculate progress under this method, simply divide the costs incurred by the total costs and multiply the result with 100 to get the percentage. 30% is the progress of the contract.

3) Revenue (150 * 30%) = $45m

   COS (120 * 30%)        = $36m

   Gross Profit                = $9m

* 120 is the Total Cost.

4) The last step involves determining Contract Assets and Liabilities. I won't go in to the detail because this step is not concerned with your question. You are open to ask questions regarding this step if you need.

Thanks.
