Velocity, a consulting firm, enters into a contract to help Burger Boy, a fast-food restaurant, design a marketing strategy to c

ompete with Burger King. The contract spans eight months. Burger Boy promises to pay $93,000 at the end of each month. At the end of the contract, Velocity either will give Burger Boy a refund of $31,000 or will be entitled to an additional $31,000 bonus, depending on whether sales at Burger Boy at year-end have increased to a target level. At the inception of the contract, Velocity estimates an 80% chance that it will earn the $31,000 bonus and calculates the contract price based on the expected value of future payments to be received. At the start of the fifth month, circumstances change, and Velocity revises to 60% its estimate of the probability that it will earn the bonus. At the end of the contract, Velocity receives the additional consideration of $31,000. At the end of the contract, Velocity receives the additional consideration of $29,000.
Required:
a. Prepare the journal entry to record revenue each month for the first four months of the contract.
b. Prepare the journal entry that the Velocity Company would record after four months to recognize the change in estimate associated with the reduced likelihood that the bonus will be received.

Answer:

a. Accounts Receivable (Dr.) $93,000

Bonus Receivable (Dr.) $2,325

Service Revenue (Cr.) $95,325

b. Service Revenue (Dr.) $9,300

Bonus receivable (Cr.) $9,300

c. Accounts Receivable (Dr.) $93,775

Bonus Receivable (Dr.) $775

Service Revenue (Cr.) $93,000

d. Cash (Dr.) $29,000

Bonus Receivable (Cr.) $29,000

Explanation:

The contract between Burger Boy and Velocity is for eight months.

Expected value of the contract on 1st month is :

80% * [ $93,000 * 8 months + $31,000 ] + 20% [ $93,000 * 8 months - $31,000] = $762,600

The expected value per month is $762,600 / 8 months = $95,325 per month

Expected value of the contract 5th month with revised probability is :

60% * [ $93,000 * 8 months + $31,000 ] + 40% [ $93,000 * 8 months - $31,000] = $750,200

The expected value per month is $750,200 / 8 months = $93,775 per month.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

NPV = $1.49  million

Explanation:

<em>The NPV is the difference between the PV of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good investment decision and a negative figure implies the opposite.  </em>

<em>NPV of an investment:  </em>

NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of cash outflow  

But we will need to work out the discount rate to be used for discounting the cash flows. Hence, we need to determine the cost of capital as follows:

Step 1: After-tax cost of debt

After tax cost of debt = pre-tax cost of debt × (1-tax rate rate)

                                 = 9%× (1--0.3)=6.3%

Step 2 : Weighted Average cost of capital (WACC)

WACC=( 0.25×6.3%) + (0.75× 13%) =11.325 %

Step 3:Net Present Value (NPV)

PV of cash inflow= (1- (1.11325^-5)/0.11325)× 13.5 = 49.49  million

Initial cost = $48 million

NPV = 49.49  million -  $48 million  =$1.49  million

NPV = $1.49  million
