Ethical Issue: Moss Exports is having a bad year. Net Income is only $60,000. Also, two important overseas customers are falling behind in their payments to Moss, and Moss's Accounts Receivable are ballooning (these two customers owe Moss $80,000 combined). The company desperately needs a loan. The Moss Exports Board of Directors is considering ways to put the best face on the company's financial statements. Moss's bank closely examines cash flow from operating activities. Daniel Peavey, Moss's Controller, suggests reclassifying the receivables from the two overseas customers as long-term assets. He explains to the Board that removing the $80,000 increase in Accounts Receivable from current assets will increase the net cash provided by operations.This approach may help get Moss the loan.
1. Using only the amounts given, compute net cash provided by operations, both without and with the reclassification of the receivables.
Which reporting makes Moss look better?

It has incurred a great deal of expenses associated with opening the stores, and the stores have not yet built up enough clientele to be profitable. On the other hand, the stores are operating at profit levels exceeding expectations, and there are indications that they will be very profitable in the future. It is obvious that the stock market has not yet digested this latter fact, and the additional 50 stores this year, but to do so will require new stockholder capital acquired from the market (it has borrowed all it feels it is prudent to borrow and cannot obtain more capital from its current stockholders). Without the new capital, the stockholders can expect to earn an equivalent annual return of 0.15 on the current market value of their investment (assume there is $100 million or 1 million shares of…arrow_forward
- (Calculating free cash flows) Spartan Stores is expanding operations with the introduction of a new distribution center. Not only will sales increase but investment in inventory will decline due to increased efficiencies in getting inventory to showrooms. As a result of this new distribution center, Spartan expects a change in EBIT of $900,000. Although inventory is expected to drop from $82,000 to $65,000, accounts receivables are expected to climb as a result of increased credit sales from $85,000 to $190,000. In addition, accounts payable are expected to increase from $67,000 to $84,000. This project will also produce $400,000 of bonus depreciation in year 1 and Spartan Stores is in the 35 percent marginal tax rate.

The following discussion took place between Lucas Hunter and Simmons controller, John Jameson, in January, after the close of the fiscal year: Lucas: Ive been reviewing our financial statements for the last year. I am disappointed that our net income per share has dropped by 10% from last year. This wont look good to our shareholders. Is there anything we can do about this? John: What do you mean? The past is the past, and the numbers are in. There isnt much that can be done about it. Our financial statements were prepared according to generally accepted accounting principles, and I dont see much leeway for significant change at this point. Lucas: No, no. Im not suggesting that we cook the books. But look at the cash flow from operating activities on the statement of cash flows. The cash flow from operating activities has increased by 20%. This is very good newsand, I might add, useful information. The higher cash flow from operating activities will give our creditors comfort. John: Well, the cash flow from operating activities is on the statement of cash flows, so I guess users will be able to see the improved cash flow figures there. Lucas: This is true, but somehow I think this information should be given a much higher profile. I dont like this information being buried in the statement of cash flows. You know as well as I do that many users will focus on the income statement. Therefore, I think we ought to include an operating cash flow per share number on the face of the income statementsomeplace under the earnings per share number. In this way, users will get the complete picture of our operating performance. Yes, our earnings per share dropped this year, but our cash flow from operating activities improved! And all the information is in one place where users can see and compare the figures. What do you think? John: Ive never really thought about it like that before. I guess we could put the operating cash flow per share on the income statement, underneath the earnings per share amount. Users would really benefit from this disclosure. Thanks for the ideaIll start working on it. Lucas: Glad to be of service. How would you interpret this situation? Is John behaving in an ethical and professional manner?arrow_forwardConsider the case of Hungry Whale Electronics Company: Hungry Whale Electronics Company is a mature firm that has a stable flow of business.
