Chapter 14, Problem 1ATC
Maria Gutierrez and Devin Duzan recently graduated from the same university. After graduation they decided not to seek jobs at established organizations but, rather, to start their own small business hoping they could have more flexibility in their personal lives for a few years. Maria's family has operated Mexican restaurants and taco trucks for the past two generations, and Maria noticed there were no taco truck services in the town where their university was located. To reduce the amount they would need for an initial investment, they decided to start a business operating a taco cart rather than a taco truck, from which they would cook and serve traditional Mexican-styled street food.
They bought a used taco cart for $15,000. This cost, along with the cost for supplies to get started, a business license, and street vendor license brought their initial expenditures to $20,000.
They took $5,000 from personal savings they had accumulated by working part time during college, and they borrowed $15,000 from Maria’s parents. They agreed to pay interest on the outstanding loan balance each month based on an annual rate of 4 percent. They will repay the principal over the next few years as cash becomes available. They were able to rent space in a parking lot near the campus they had attended, believing that the students would welcome their food as an alternative to the typical fast food that was currently available.
After two months in business, September and October, they had average monthly revenues of $20,000 and out-of-pocket costs of $16,000 for rent, ingredients, paper supplies, and so on, but not interest. Devin thinks they should repay some of the money they borrowed, but Maria thinks they should prepare a set of
Required
- a. Prepare the annual pro forma financial statements that you would expect Maria to prepare based on her comments about her expectations for the business. Assume no principal will be repaid on the loan.
- b. Review the statements you prepared for the first requirement and prepare a list of reasons why actual results for Devin and Maria's business probably will not match their budgeted statements.

Question 10
Two friends, Mickey and Minnie, had just started university studies. Both intended to major in
accounting. During the first week of lectures, Minnie, who had to go home for family reasons,
asked Mickey to buy a copy of the prescribed accounting text for her from the university book-
shop. She left Mickey $100 to cover the cost of the text currently selling in the bookshop for $80.
On the day Mickey visited the bookshop to buy the text; he noted that there were a number of
copies that had been returned to the shop by the students who had managed to get second-hand
copies. These returned copies had been marked down to $65 and looked new. Unable to resist a
bargain, Mickey bought a copy for $65.

Comparing the pros and cons of setting up her own store from ground and acquiring an existing business, Josephine determines to purchase the existing business. Last month, Josephine discovered that a well-established ladies' clothing shop was up for sale. Although it is a private company, the shop was well known and quite successful in the local market. The present owner, Mrs Kathleen Todd, was quitting to retire very soon. Josephine contacted Mrs Todd to discuss the sale of the business. Mrs Todd hired a company to conduct an independent appraisal of the business, which concluded that tangible assets were $230,000 and assumable liabilities were $18,000. The appraisal estimated net profit for the next year to be $73,800 before deducting any managerial salaries.
