- It is February 16, 2020, and you are auditing Davenport Corporation's financial statements for 2019 (which will be issued in March 2020). You read in the newspaper that Travis Corporation, a major customer of Davenport, is in financial difficulty. Included in Davenports accounts receivable is 50,000 (a material amount) owed to it by Travis. You approach Jim Davenport, president, with this information and suggest that a reduction of accounts receivable and recognition of a loss for 2019 might be appropriate. Jim replies, Why should we make an adjustment? Ted Travis, the president of Travis Corporation, is a friend of mine; he will find a way to pay us, one way or another. Furthermore, this occurred in 2020, so lets wait and see what happens; we can always make an adjustment later this year. Our 2019 income and year-end working capital are not that high; our creditors and shareholders wouldnt stand for lower amounts than they already are. Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, prepare a response to Jim Davenport regarding this issue.arrow_forwardJares Investments GlobalLimited is a listed company which manufactures stationery products.

- Your audit client, PEW Company, followed up on its plan to expand its operations in 2018. The entity’s plan was to start the construction of its new building beginning of March and start its operations in the new site beginning of November. PEW, however, projected at the beginning of the year that its funds will not be enough to start the construction come March. So, on January 1, 2018, the entity obtained a loan from Bank for $50 million, specifically to fund the construction. The loan is due December 31, 2020, and the entity will be paying 12% interest every December 31. Since the construction will not commence until beginning of March, and the construction will not require a one-time outflow of cash, the entity decided to invest the unused proceeds in an investment facility that yields 0.5% return monthly. The unused proceeds will be invested at the beginning of each month. The first investment was made on January 1, 2018. Construction started on March 1, 2018 and ended on October…arrow_forwardYou are an audit senior of OLA & Co, planning the final audit of a new client, EAHO Construction Co, for the year ending 30 September 2019.
