- Recognizing pension expense The annual examination of Felton Companys financial statements by its external public accounting firm (auditors) is nearing completion. The following conversation took place between the controller of Felton Company (Francie) and the audit manager from the public accounting firm (Sumana): Sumana: You know, Francie, we are about to wrap up our audit for this fiscal year. Yet, there is one item still to be resolved. Francie: Whats that? Sumana: Well, as you know, at the beginning of the year, Felton began a defined benefit pension plan. This plan promises your employees an annual payment when they retire, using a formula based on their salaries at retirement and their years of service. I believe that a pension expense should be recognized this year, equal to the amount of pension earned by your employees. Francie: Wait a minute. I think you have it all wrong. The company doesnt have a pension expense until it actually pays the pension in cash when the employee retires. After all, some of these employees may not reach retirement, and if they dont, the company doesnt owe them anything. Sumana: Youre not really seeing this the right way. The pension is earned by your employees during their working years. You actually make the payment much laterwhen they retire. Its like one long accrualmuch like incurring wages in one period and paying them in the next. Thus, I think you should recognize the expense in the period the pension is earned by the employees. Francie: Let me see if Ive got this straight. I should recognize an expense this period for something that may or may not be paid to the employees in 20 or 30 years, when they finally retire. How am I supposed to determine what the expense is for the current year? The amount of the final retirement depends on many uncertainties: salary levels, employee longevity, mortality rates, and interest earned on investments to fund the pension. I dont think an amount can be determined even if I accepted your arguments. Evaluate Sumanas position. Is she right, or is Francie correct?arrow_forwardKoolman Construction Company began work on a contract in 2019.

- Ethics and Sale of Operating Component It is the end of 2019, and, as an accountant for Newell Company, you are preparing its 2019 financial statements. On December 29, 2019, Newells management decided to sell one of its major divisions, subject to some legal work that is expected to be completed during the first week in April 2020 after the 2019 financial statements have been issued). During 2019, the division earned a small operating income that is just enough for the company to report record earnings for the year. However, the estimated fair value of the division at the end of 2019 is less than its net book value, so that management anticipates the component will be sold at a loss. Newells president stops by your office and says, You have been doing a fine job. Keep up the good work because you are heading for a promotion in early 2021. Once we report the record earnings for 2019, our shareholders and creditors will be happy. Then I think our earnings for 2020 will be high enough so that the loss we expect to report in 2020 on the sale of the division will not look so bad. After the president leaves your office, you continue preparing the 2019 financial statements. Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, what information, if any, will you include about the upcoming sale of the division in the 2019 financial statements?arrow_forwardGrammatico Company has just completed its third year of operations.
