Answer:

Goodwill is:

The excess of the fair value of a business over the fair value of all net identifiable assets.

Explanation:

This definition of Goodwill implies that it is usually acquired by the purchaser of another business, when it pays a price higher than the fair market value of the other company's net assets.  It is not a physical asset like property, plant, and equipment, but intangible.

Goodwill arises from a company's good reputation, loyal customers or clientele base, brand identity, talented workforce, and proprietary technology.

Goodwill does not have a definite life and under US GAAP and IFRS standards.  Therefore, it is not amortized like other intangible assets but is evaluated for impairment every year.

OLEGan [10]

Answer: Please see below

Explanation: The values from  the question are scattered, but here is how they should appear

                                                    Case A       Case B         Case C  

Net income                               $310,000         15,000 $420,000    

Depreciation expense                  40,000   150,000       80,000

Accounts receivable increase

(decrease                                      100,000 (200,000) (20,000)

Inventory increase (decrease)        (50,000)   35,000   50,000

Accounts payable increase           (50,000)   120,000   70,000

Accrued liabilities increase

(decrease)                                  60,000  (220,000) (40,000)

To calculate the operating activities section of cash flows for each of the given cases,

we use the Indirect method formula

Net cash flow from operating actvities  = Net Income + Non-Cash Expenses – Increase in Working Capital

Net cash flow from operating actvities =Net Income +/- Changes in Assets & Liabilities + Non-Cash Expenses

Net cash flow from operating actvities = Net Income + Depreciation + Stock Based Compensation + Deferred Tax + Other Non Cash Items – Increase in Accounts Receivable – Increase in Inventory + Increase in Accounts Payable + Increase in Accrued Expenses + Increase in Deferred Revenue

Following the formulae above, we can determine what expense should be added or subtracted to give the operating activities of cash flow below as

                                  Case A                   Case B               Case C

Net Income               $310,000                15,000         $420,000  

Net Income Adjustments to Reconcile Net Income to net Cash provided by operating activities

Depreciation                   40,000              150,000       80,000

Changes in Assets and Liabilities

Accounts Receivable        - 100,000       200,000           20,000

Inventory                              50,000           -35,000        - 50,000    

Accounts Payable            -50,000            120,000       70,000

Accrued Liabilities              60,000           - 220,000       -40,000

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

                                      $310,000         $230,000       $500,000

Timmy Company's comparative balance sheet at January 31, 2017, and 2016. reports the following (in millions):
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The Accounting Equation states that;

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Equity as at 2016 = Assets - Liabilities

= 50 - 13

= $37 million

Equity as at 2017 = Assets - Liabilities

= 77 - 18

= $59 million

1. Timmy issued $13 million of stock and declared no dividends.

<em>The Net Income ( loss) will be the figure that gives the Statement of Equity a figure of $59 million.</em>

Net Income = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  - Issuance of stock

= 59 - 37 - 13

= $9 million

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  ................ 37

Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 13

Net income  ......................................................................9

Less: Dividends declared......................................................0

Net loss.......................................................................................0

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59

2. Timmy issued no stock but declared dividends of $17 million.

Net Income (loss) = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  + Dividends Declared

= 59 - 37 + 17

= $39 million

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  ................ 37

Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 0

Net income  ......................................................................39

Less: Dividends declared......................................................(17)

Net loss.......................................................................................0

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59

3. Timmy issued $20 million of stock and declared dividends of $27 million.

Net Income (loss) = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  + Dividends Declared -  Issuance of stock

= 59 - 37 + 27 - 20

= $29 million

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  ................ 37

Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 20

Net income  ......................................................................29

Less: Dividends declared......................................................(27)

Net loss.......................................................................................0

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59

Two investment advisers are comparing performance. One averaged a 19% return and the other a 16% return. However, the beta for t
finlep [7]

Answer: Adviser B is the superior stock selector.

Explanation:

For the comparision between the two investment advisers, the Jenson's Alpha will be utilized.

Jenson's Alpha:

= Portfolio Actual Return - CAPM(Benchmark Portfolio Return)

T Bill Rate(Risk free rate) = 6%

Market return(E(Em) = 14%

Beta of Investment Adviser A = 1.5

Beta of Investment Adviser B = 1

For Adviser A:

CAPM = Risk free return + Beta ( E(Rm) - Risk free return)

CAPM(Benchmark Portfolio) = 6 + 1.5 (14-6)

= 6 + 12

= 18%

Actual Return = 19%

Jenson's Alpha = 19% - 18% = 1%

For Adviser B:

CAPM = Risk free return + Beta ( E(Rm) - Risk free return)

CAPM(Benchmark Portfolio) = 6 + 1(14-6) = 6 + 1(8) = 14%

Actual Return = 16%

Jenson's Alpha = 16% - 14% = 2%

Adviser B is a better selector because he has a larger alpha of 2% compared to Adviser A who has 1%.

T Bill Rate(Risk free rate) = 3%

Market return(E(Rm) = 15%

Beta of Investment Adviser A = 1.5

Beta of Investment Adviser B = 1

For Adviser A:

CAPM = Risk free return + Beta ( E(Rm) - Risk free return)

CAPM(Benchmark Portfolio) = 3 + 1.5 (15-3)

= 3 + 18

= 21%

Actual Return = 19%

Jenson's Alpha = 19% - 21% = -2%

For Adviser B:

CAPM = Risk free return + Beta ( E(Rm) - Risk free return)

CAPM(Benchmark Portfolio) = 3 + 1(15-3) = 3 + 1(12) = 15%

Actual Return = 16%

Jenson's Alpha = 16% - 15% = 1%

Given the changes, Adviser B is still the better selector because he has a larger alpha of 1% compared to Adviser A who has -2%.
