In 1966, the owners had paid $8.5 million to purchase the franchise. They considered $50,000 to be the cost of the franchise (which is not depreciable for income tax reporting), $727,000 was deferred interest, and the remaining $7.7 million was claimed to be the cost of the players’ contracts and options. The dispute centered on several variables: • How much of the purchase price was assign-able to television rights? • Can the value assignable to television rights be amortized? If so, what is the expected life? • How much of the purchase price was assign-able to player contracts and options? • Over what life should the value assigned to the players be amortized? • What is the value of the franchise?

Ms. Keene's first job with Plexicon was the review of the company's accounting practices on deferred income taxes. In doing her review, she noted differences between tax and book depreciation methods that permitted Plexicon to realize a sizable deferred tax liability on its balance sheet. As a result, Plexicon paid very little in income taxes at that time.\\n\\n Keene also discovered that Plexicon has an explicit policy of selling off plant assets before they reversed in the deferred tax liability account. This policy, coupled with the rapid expansion of its plant asset base, allowed Plexicon to "defer" all income taxes payable for several years, even though it always has reported positive earnings and an increasing EPS. Keene checked with the legal department and found the policy to be legal, but she's uncomfortable with the ethics of it.\\n\\nRequired:\\n\\nWhy would Plexicon…arrow_forward
