Additional Information:

Assume that all taxes are at 30% unless otherwise indicated. Theincome tax expense on continuing operations and the income taxliability have not yet been recorded.

Line Item 1 refers to a loss of $70,000 on uninsured damagedfrom a meteor that crashed into a plant facility in New Mexico. Themeteor is considered BOTH UNUSUAL AND INFREQUENT. The applicabletax rate was 35%.

Line Item 2 is income from the publishing division of the firmprior to May 1, 2016. On May 1, management decided to spin-off[discontinue] the operations.

Line Item 3 is also related to the publishing division mentionedin “c” above. Actual losses on the divisions operations after May 1totaled $50,000. Management further expected additional losses of$30,000 on operations and a loss of $220,000 on the sale of thedivision’s assets.

Line Item 4 arose from the sale of long-term investments. Theportfolio that originally cost $250,000 was sold for $284,000.

Line Item 5 arose from discovery of equipment, costing $600,000that had been written off in 2014 as an operating expense. As ofthe beginning of the 2016 the accumulated depreciation was$100,000. The book value of the equipment was $500,000.

Line Item 6 refers to restructuring costs.

Line Item 7 refers to inventory that was on Hand on December 31,and was discovered to be obsolete during the year-end count onJanuary 15, 2017.

The investment account represents two portfolios. The firstportfolio cost $200,000 and is worth $215,000. These stocks andbonds are available currently for sale to raise cash resources. Theother investment, costing $1,000,000 and worth $1,000,000, will beheld indefinitely [long-term] by management.

Included in goodwill is an amount equal to $100,000 thatmanagement “created” after a successful advertising campaign. Theoffsetting credit was to paid-in capital in excess of par value:common.

During 2016, management decided that the usefulness of thefranchise would only last four of the remaining five years.Consequently, management increased the amortization by $100,000 or25 percent in 2016. The new estimate was used in 2016 and would becontinued for the remaining three years.

Inventory on December 31, 2016 was $200,000 after consideringthe decline from line item 7.

The state authorized 100,000 shares of 8 % preferred stock witha par value of $100 of which 8,000 shares have been issued.

The state also authorized 2,000,000 shares of common stock, witha par value of $10 par value. There are no shares in treasury.

The bonds will be refinanced when they are due in 2017.

Foreign currency translation losses were $ 3,000.

Advance Fuel Corporation (AFC) was founded five years ago whenDr. Zachery Aplin left his faculty position at a prestigiousuniversity to pursue the development of a process t convert grainwaste poducts into fuel. He used a largegovernment grant, personalfunds, and loans from friends and relatives as seed money tofinance the company, and he was the sole stockholder.

Dr. Aplin worked feverishly for three years with limitedsuccess. However, in the beginning of the fourth year of dedicatedresearch, he and his two-member staff made a major break-throughthat led to the development of a process capable of efficientlyconverting grain waste producys into ethanol, a compound that isblended with gasoline to produce a better burning automobile fuel.Ethanol-gasoline blends have been around for som time, andthe U.S.currently produces over a billion gallons of ethanol a year.However, the ethanol is produced from feed corn, and it moreexpensive than the gasoline to which it is added. Only a federalsubsidy makes ethanol-gasoline mixture economically feasible.Producing ethanol from grain waste products would lower its cost,hence dramaticaly increasing the market potential of the blendedfuel.

AFC recently received a patent from the U.S. Patent Office forDr. Aplin's unique ethanol production process. After consideringlicensing the process to major oil companies, Dr. Aplin decidedthat AFC would broaden its scope of operations to include theproduction and sale of ethanol. Realizing that both his personalfinancial resources and those of AFC has ben exhausted, Dr. Aplindiscussed his need for venture capital with the firm's CPA andbanker. Both professionals suggested that the first step inattaining outside capital is the development of a busines plan.

With some help from the firm's CPA and banker, Dr. Aplin andhisstaff developed an impeccable business plan. Merely working on theplan was a beneficial process, because it forced the participantsto think about issues that had not previously been considered. Dr.Aplin knew that AFC's production process held a cost advantage overthe competition, but he was amazed to discover that AFC'sproduction costs were only 70 percent of its closest competitior.On theother hand, the capital-intensive nature of AFC's productionprocess was revealed by the business plan.

The cost of building one production facility was determind to be$10 million. Since the manufacturing strategy calls for buildingplants in five major cities in the U.S., and since $1 million inwoking capital is needed to start up each plant, AFC's totalcapital requirement is $55 million. Because the nee for $55 millionwas a lot more than Dr. Aplin anticipated, he decided to hireventure capital consultant to help him identify and approachpotential capital providers. The consultant described four mainsources of start-up capital: venture capital funds, banks,individual, and public offerings.

Asume you are a manager of a venture capital fund, and a bank isoffering to laon $20 million of the $55 million financingrequirement. The after-tax cash outflows to service the bank debtare $5, $5, $5, $5, and $10 million in Years 1 through 5,respectively. You are considering providing an equity investmentfor the remaining $35 million required by AFC.

Question

You have decided to use the discounted cash flowapproach to value AFC. Based on the riskiness of the new businessyou believe a 30 percent discount rate is appopriate. What is theforecasted value of the AFC to its equity holders? (Hint: Use thecash flow in Table 2 as a starting point.)

Notes: (a) Depreciation/amorization expenses is included in thcost of goods sold, yet it is a noncash charge. Thus, it must beadded back to new income to obtain net cash flow in each year.

(b) Th terminal value is the present value, as of the end ofYear5, of the equity cash flow that are expected to occur after Year 5.This value was obtained by assuming 10 percent annual growth inequity cash flow after Year 5 and a cost of equity of 30percent:

Terminal value = $21(1.10) / ( 0.30 -0.10) = $116.

Question

What percentage of common stock would you require toinvest the needed $35 million? Would Dr. Aplin be willing to sellyou this percentage ownership of AFC?

Jenkins Company has decided to acquire office equipment(copiers, printers, etc.) that it will use at its headquartersbuilding for the next five years. The equipment would cost $500,000to purchase. Alternately, Jenkins could lease the equipment forfive years, at an annual cost of $120,000. The lease includesequipment maintenance, which would otherwise be anticipated to cost$40,000 per year.

The estimated salvage value of the equipment after five years is$100,000. The five-year MACRS schedule applies for taxdepreciation. Jenkins’ tax rate is 34%. You can assume that, shouldJenkins purchase the equipment, it will borrow $500,000 to do so.The loan would call for Jenkins to pay $40,000 per year ininterest, and to repay the principal after at the end of yearfive.

The appropriate discount rate for this problem is 5.28% (theafter tax cost of borrowing). You can also assume that Jenkinswould earn this rate (after tax) on any cash balances. All cashflows except the initial purchase and borrowing are end-of-period.Finally, you can assume that Jenkins’ taxable income is high enoughthat the tax deductible expenses associated with this decisionwould indeed reduce the company’s tax liability.

An automatic teller machine (ATM) is used by the customers of a bank. Each customer has an account number, a customer name and a personal identification number (PIN); account number and PIN are required to gain access to the account. In a real ATM, the account number would be recorded on the magnetic strip of the ATM card. In this simulation, the customer will need to type it in. With the ATM, customers can log in to their account and make transactions. This process is repeated until the customer chooses to exit. The transactions can be made under the account as follows: 1. Check balance – This is to allow customer to check balance amount in the account. 2. Deposit amount – This is to allow customer deposit amount into his/her account. Ask user for deposit amount; new balance should be updated in the account. 3. Withdraw amount – This is to allow customer withdraw amount from his/her account. Ask user for withdrawal amount; new balance should be updated in the account. You are required to make sure the customer has sufficient balance for withdrawer. 4. Transfer amount (to other customer) – This is to allow customer transfer amount to other customers. Ask user for account numbers of transferee and transfer amount. Then search for the customer records using the input number; new balance should be updated in both accounts (transferor and transferee) if the transferee record is found. If the transferee record is not found, display error message. 5. Check history – This is to allow customer to check history of transactions. Display the list of transactions forward according to transaction date. Each display should contain an appropriate heading and column captions. Note that this is an advance question. You are required to modify the structure definitions from array of structures to nested arrays of structures for this task. Make sure the first four processes (check balance, deposit amount, withdraw amount and transfer amount) work well before attempting this question. Your final mark will be affected if you fail to implement the first four processes when attempting to implement this process (check Write an application in C++ to process customer transactions. Because this is a simulation, the ATM does not actually communicate with a bank. It simply loads a set of account numbers, PINs and balance amounts from a text file. Gather data on at least 5 customer records and prepare them in the text file(s). As each customer record is read, insert it into a list by using an array of structures. After building the list (array of structures), display a menu allowing customer to make transactions. When user chooses to exit the application, the program will write the updated data in the list (array of structures) to the text file. Prepare the necessary data file(s) for building the data structure(s) needed in your application. You may give additional assumptions for your application. To make your program more robust and avoid problems at run time, do as much status/error checking as you can in your program. You may also add more features and/or record more details of customers in your program for enhancement.
