Why not use Sales in the Inventory Turnover Ratio?

Answer»

The short answer is: Because Inventory is at COST. Inventory is not on the company's books at selling prices.

The Inventory Turnover Ratio is Cost of Goods Sold divided by average Inventory. Let's illustrate the ratio with the following amounts: Sales for the year $800,000; Cost of Goods Sold for the year $600,000; Inventory (average amount at cost during the year) $200,000. Inventory Turnover Ratio = $600,000 divided by $200,000 = 3 times. On average the inventory turned over approximately 3 times during the year.

Had we used Sales in the ratio, it would indicate that the inventory had turned over 4 times (Sales of $800,000 divided by $200,000 of Inventory), which is not the CASE. While some organizations do use Sales in the calculation, it is not logical to DIVIDE selling prices by cost. The resulting ratio is not reality. (Perhaps some use Sales because the Cost of Goods Sold number is not readily available for every company. In order to have COMPARABILITY with all companies, they may have opted to use Sales.)

List the necessary journal entries in the books of the company.

Answer»

The displacement of a moving object is directly proportional to both velocity and TIME. Move faster. Go farther. Move longer (as in longer time). Go farther. Acceleration compounds this simple SITUATION since velocity is now also directly proportional to time. Try saying this in words and it sounds ridiculous. "Displacement is directly proportional to time and directly proportional to velocity, which is directly proportional to time." Time is a factor twice, making displacement proportional to the square of time. A car accelerating for two seconds would COVER four times the distance of a car accelerating for only one second (22 = 4). A car accelerating for three seconds would cover nine times the distance (32 = 9).

Would that it were so simple. This example only works when initial velocity is zero. Displacement is proportional to the square of time when acceleration is constant and initial velocity is zero. A true GENERAL statement would have to take into account any initial velocity and how the velocity was changing. This results in a terribly messy proportionality statement. Displacement is directly proportional to time and proportional to the square of time when acceleration is constant. A function that is both linear and square is said to be quadratic, which allows us to compact the previous statement considerably. Displacement is a quadratic function of time when acceleration is constant

Proportionality statements are useful, but not as concise as equations. We still don't know what the constants of proportionality are for this problem. One way to figure them out is to use algebra.

Start with the definition of velocity.

v̅ = ΔsΔt

Expand Δs to s − s0 and condense Δt to t.

v̅ = s − s0t

Solve for position.

s = s0 + v̅t [a]

To continue, we need to resort to a little trick known as the mean speed theorem or the Merton rule. I prefer the latter since the rule can be applied to any quantity that changes at a uniform rate — not just speed. The Merton rule was first published in 1335 at Merton College, Oxford by the English philosopher, mathematician, logician, and calculator WilliamHeytesbury. When the rate of change of a quantity is constant, the quantity changes at a uniform rate so that its average value is halfway between its initial and final values.

v̅ = ½(v + v0) [4]

Substitute the first equation of motion [1] into this equation [4] and simplify with the intent of eliminating v.

v̅ = ½[(v0 + at) + v0]  v̅ = ½(2v0 + at)  v̅ = v0 + ½at [b]

Now substitute [b] into [a] to eliminate v̅ [vee bar].

s = s0 + (v0 + ½at)t

And finally, solve for s as a function of t.

s = s0 + v0t + ½at2 [2]

This is the second equation of motion. It's written like a POLYNOMIAL — a constant term (s0), followed by a first order term (v0t ), followed by a second order term (½at2). Since the highest order is 2, it's more correct to call it a quadratic.

I don't understand the conservatism principle. Why do losses get recorded but not gains?

Answer»

The Present Value of an entity can be defined as the present worth of a prospective amount of money or a stream of cash flows with a specified return rate. The Present Value is conversely related to the discount rate. Thus, a higher discount rate implies a LOWER present value and vice versa. Accurate DETERMINATION of cash flows is, therefore, the key to appropriately valuing future cash flows, be it earnings or obligations.

The calculation of the Present Value holds extreme importance in different financial calculations like Net Present Value, spot rates, bond yields, and pension obligations. The apposite definition for Present Value (PV) is given as the CURRENT value of one or higher future cash payments which are discounted at a reasonable interest rate.

Calculation (FORMULA)

Present Value = Future Cash Flow / (1 + Required Rate of Return)N

N – a number of years you have to wait for the cash flow;

"Required Rate of Return" is named "discount rate".

"(1 + Required Rate of Return)N" is named "discounting factor".

Calculating the Present Value

Generally, there are three factors which influence the calculation of the Present Value:

The size of the cash flow

The future cash flow implies the size of the cash which is expected to be received. The future cash flow and the present value are related directly. A larger future cash flow implies a higher present value.

The risk involved in cash flow

With rising uncertainty, the INVESTOR anticipating the receipt of a cash flow has to presume higher risk. This presumed level of high risk lowers the value that should be paid at present for the future cash flow. The “risk” involved is calculated by the rate of return which you might require from another investment aimed at generating cash flow with the same risk level.

The waiting period involved in cash flow

A longer waiting period lowers the value of cash flow. This reduction in the present value of a cash flow is accrued to two reasons –

a. The money which has been invested could be invested in some other project which would earn you interest during the years which you have been waiting.

b. If, in case, you are not sure about getting the expected cash flow , you will have to presume more risk with time passing by thereby lowering the value that would be paid by someone for that future cash flow

If the present value of cash inflows are greater than the present value of cash outflows the project would be?

The Present Value of an entity can be defined as the present worth of a prospective amount of money or a stream of cash flows with a specified return rate.

Why would a business change its chart of accounts?

Answer»

There can be several REASONS for a business to change its chart of accounts. One reason for changing the chart of accounts is to better match how the business is ORGANIZED. Perhaps the chart of accounts was established when the business was much smaller (fewer products, fewer customers, fewer managers). Now the company's more sophisticated operations require more detailed reporting that is segmented by processes and/or by each manager's area of responsibility.

Another reason for changing the chart of accounts is a company's decision to acquire and install a NEW computerized system for controlling its operations. The new system's general ledger might result in a chart of accounts which is different from the PREVIOUS chart of accounts.

Explain various patterns of cash-flows with correct examples. What are positive and negative cash flows.

Answer»

If cash INFLOWS in any activity exceeds cash outflows from that activity, it is positive cash FLOW. In case cash outflow exceeds inflow it is NEGATIVE cash flow.
For eg, if the company has sold plant and MACHINERY worth RS. 10,00,000 (cash inflow) and purchased a land worth Rs. 12,00,000 (outflow) during the same period, then its total flow of cash from investing activity will be Rs 2,00,000, which is negative cash flow as outflows exceed inflows of cash.
