CHAPTER 4 – INVENTORIES ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1.
2.
(a)
Disagree. The steps in the ing cycle are the same for both a merchandising company and a service enterprise. See Chapter 3, Figure 3-26 page 179 Required Steps in the ing Cycle.
(b)
The measurement of profit is conceptually the same. In both types of companies, profit (or loss) is determined by subtracting expenses from revenues.
(a)
The profit measurement process is as follows:
Sales Revenue
(b)
Cost of Sales
Less
Equals
Gross Profit
Less
Operating Expenses
Net Profit
Equals
Profit measurement in a merchandising business differs from a service business as follows: (i)
sales are the primary source of revenue; and
(ii)
expenses are divided into two main categories:
cost of sales, and
operating expenses
3. Net sales revenues Cost of sales Gross profit 4.
$220,000 154,000 $66,000
Agree. In accordance with the revenue recognition principle, sales revenues are generally recognised when the goods are transferred from the seller to the buyer. Recognition of revenue is not dependent on the cash collection of credit sales.

(a)
Businesses most likely to use a perpetual inventory system would include those selling products which have a high unit-value such as automobile dealerships, equipment supply companies. With computerisation, perpetual systems are becoming increasingly cost-effective, for example, the use of optical scan cash s in supermarkets means that a perpetual system can be employed for high turnover low unit cost items.
(b)
Owners of small businesses such as cafes, restaurants and greengrocers are more likely to use periodic inventory systems because for them, the costs of using perpetual inventory systems may outweigh the benefits.
9.
Factors affecting a company’s gross profit rate include selling products with a higher (or lower) ‘mark-up’, increased competition that results in lower selling prices and price increases from suppliers.
10.
(a)
False. GST may be paid on taxable supplies at each stage in the commercial chain, however, it is the final consumer, not the first purchaser, who bears the cost of the GST.
(b)
True. The GST is a value-added tax, which means that tax is levied on the value added by a business at each stage in the production and distribution chain. The GST is not a tax on business income. © John Wiley and Sons Australia Ltd, 2016

The advantages associated with granting a discount for early payment are that the purchaser saves money and the seller is able to shorten the operating cycle thereby improving cash flow by converting s receivable to cash earlier. The disadvantage to the seller is that there is a cost associated with offering a discount.

Freight-in refers to freight costs paid by the purchaser. Freight-in forms part of the cost of inventory but because of the difficulty of allocating freight costs to individual inventory items when several items are delivered at the same time, a freight-in is often kept and the amount of freight-in is incorporated into cost of sales in the statement of profit or loss. Freight-out refers to freight costs paid by the seller. These costs appear under operating expenses (selling and distribution expenses) on the statement of profit or loss. Customers may be charged an additional amount to cover freight-out expenses.

It is often more useful to be able to compare financial ratios than to compare the actual financial results. For example, knowing the gross profit rate gives a better indicator of an entity’s profitability than knowing the dollar amount of the gross profit. Just knowing the operating expenses is less useful than knowing the operating expenses to sales ratio. Furthermore, ratios allow for meaningful comparisons than just using dollars. For example, the gross profit ratio relates gross profit to sales and provides an indication of mark-up on cost. Finally, using ratios enables analysts to compare the profitability of entities of different sizes because ratios control for size whereas a dollar value does not.

(b)
The advantages for The Novelty Bookstore of using a perpetual inventory system as opposed to a periodic inventory system are:
Inventory is constantly updated every time a purchase or sale is made. This means that The Novelty Bookstore will be aware of when to reorder items of inventory. Cost of sales is updated every time a sale is made so interim financial statements can be prepared without having to conduct an inventory count. When The Novelty Bookstore does conduct an inventory count (which should be at least annually), any inventory losses can be accurately determined. Using a perpetual inventory system would be a disadvantage for The Novelty Bookstore if the business does not have a suitable computer system to maintain inventory records.

A fully classified statement of profit or loss provides more information than a summary-type statement. For instance, readers of the statement can ascertain how many sales were returned, discounts allowed on sales, and discounts received on purchases. Useful ratios such as the gross profit ratio and operating expenses to sales ratio can also be calculated. If the operating expense ratio is high, a further breakdown of expenses into categories can give insight as to which particular expenses were excessive.

(b) The advantages for Wen Goh Warehouse of using a perpetual inventory system as opposed to a periodic inventory system are:
Inventory is constantly updated every time a purchase or sale is made. This means that Wen Goh Warehouse will be aware of when to reorder items of inventory.
Cost of sales is updated every time a sale is made so interim financial statements can be prepared without having to conduct an inventory count.
When Wen Goh Warehouse does conduct an inventory count (which should be at least annually), any inventory losses can be accurately determined.
Using a perpetual inventory system would be a disadvantage for Wen Goh Warehouse if the business does not have a suitable computer system to maintain inventory records.

Note: average total assets = (352,000+390,830)/2 = 371,415 Profit margin = profit after tax/net sales = 34,210/682,000 = 5.0% Gross profit rate = gross profit / net sales = 228,030/682,000 = 33.4% Operating expenses to sales ratio = operating exp./net sales = 198,220/682,000 = 29.1% (c)
A fully classified statement of profit or loss provides more information than a summary-type statement. For instance, readers of the statement can ascertain how many sales were returned, discounts allowed on sales, and discounts received on purchases. Useful ratios such as the gross profit ratio and operating expenses to sales ratio can also be calculated. If the operating expense ratio is high, a further breakdown of expenses into categories can give insight as to which particular expenses were excessive.

The statement of profit or loss is prepared for a period of time because it summarises income and expenses for that period. The profit or loss then is used to update equity at the end of that period. The statement of financial position shows the financial position, i.e., the balances of assets, liabilities, and equity on the date the statement of financial position is prepared.

FINANCIAL REPORTING PROBLEM
Domino’s Pizza Enterprises Limited (a)
Percentage change in revenue from sale of goods: 2012 to 2013 ($182,000,000 - $162,337,000) ÷ $162,337,000= 12.1% Percentage change in profit after tax: 2012 to 2013 ($28,657,000 – $26,936,000) ÷ $26,936,000 = 6% There has been a 6% increase in profit from 2012 to 2013
(b)
Operating expenses to sales ratio: 2012 2013
$151,725,000 ÷ $162,337,000 = 93.5% $172,539,000 ÷ $182,000,000 = 94.8%
The operating expenses to sales ratio has increased marginally between 2012 and 2013, which indicates that expenses have risen in a slightly larger proportion than sales. Note: Analysis of trend typically involves a longer period. Trend analysis is covered in Chapter 12.

$6,227** = 43% $14,492
**($6,133 + $94)
(b)
Nike’s higher profit margin suggests that it was better at turning sales dollars into profit. The gross profit rate is better for Adidas, suggesting that Adidas can command a higher mark-up on its goods and/or lower product costs. Alternatively, the difference could reflect different ing policies between the two companies. Adidas’s operating profit increased substantially between 2012 and 2013. Although Nike has a lower gross profit margin, it achieved a higher profit margin because it had a lower operating expense to sales ratio ie: better control of its operating expenses. However, we should be careful not to read too much into a comparison based on only one year’s data.

Some of the benefits to businesses that make donations of excess inventory include:
(b)
COMMUNITY AND SOCIAL PERSPECTIVE
Freeing up storage space from excess, overstocked, obsolete or outdated inventory; The business can claim a tax deduction for the market value of merchandise donated; Enhance the business’ corporate image by donating excess items to a good cause, rather than dumping or liquidating the items; Avoid sending the wrong message to customers that a liquidation sales may bring; Avoid disrupting the business’ distribution or sales channels with excessive inventory that are becoming obsolete.
The procedures for making donations of excess inventory with Charity Link Australia are: The donor company completes a Product Donation Agreement which contains relevant information about the products being donated, including description, quantity, configuration, timing, inventory location and fair market value of the inventory. The charity organisation will confirm receipt of the Product Donation Agreement and collect or arrange transfer of the donated inventory. Charity Link Australia will warehouse the donations until requested by welfare organisations that are qualified and meet the registration criteria. Where possible, the requested donations will be delivered directly to the welfare organisations or the families in need. Charity Link Australia will provide tax documentation to the donor company in accordance with the Australian Taxation Office requirements and valuations.

A GLOBAL FOCUS
Woolworths vs. Wal-Mart (a) Woolworths AUS$ (in millions)
Wal-Mart US$ (in millions)
Gross profit rate
15,762 26.94% 58,517
115,007 24.31% 473,076
Operating expense sales
12,825 21.92% 58,517
93,688 19.80% 473,076
Based on these ratios and assuming consistent ing policies, it would appear that Woolworths is able to command a higher mark-up than Wal-Mart, but that Wal-Mart is better at controlling its operating costs. It is possible, however, that some of this difference is due to a difference between the two companies in the way that they report expenses, e.g. what one company includes in cost of sales, the other company reports as an operating expense.
(b) Woolworths AUS$ (in millions)
Wal-Mart US$ (in millions)
Return on assets
2,255 10.29% 21,916
16,695 8.19% 203,928
Profit margin
2,255 3.85% 58,517
16,695 3.53% 473,076
Woolworths’ return on assets is greater than that of Wal-Mart which indicates it is more efficient in generating profit from its assets. Also, from the data we observe that the profit margin for Woolworths is also greater than Wal-Mart which indicates that Woolworths generates more profit from each dollar of sales..

Current ratio
6,226 0.90 : 1 6,886
61,185 0.88 : 1 69,345
Debt to total assets ratio
12,950 58.2% 22,250
123,412 60.3% 204,751
Both companies report low current ratios. Both are less than 1. This is not surprising since it is the retail industry which has a quick turnaround of inventory and mostly cash sales, limiting the amount of current assets that they hold. However, further investigation as to the cause would be worthwhile. The debt to total assets ratio of both companies are comparable in the range of 58 – 60%. (d)
Ratios improve our ability to compare these two companies that report financial information using different currencies. However, other factors can still reduce our ability to compare them. As noted in part (a), the two companies might classify items quite differently. Also, different ing standards in the two countries might result in dramatically different results under the same circumstances. Besides, differences in laws, such as insolvency laws, can affect the results. For example, if Australian insolvency laws favour shareholders more than US insolvency laws, then Australian companies may rely more on debt financing than US companies. Finally, the data for comparison is just one year. It would be more useful to compare the trend over a number of years. (Note to lecturer: Trend analysis is covered in Chapter 12 of the textbook.)

Fiona’s proposed changes will increase profit by $31,500. Frank’s proposed changes will reduce operating expenses by $28,000 and result in a corresponding increase in profit. Thus, if the choice is between Fiona’s plan and Frank’s plan, Fiona’s plan should be adopted. While Frank’s plan will increase profit, it may also have an adverse effect on sales personnel. Under Frank’s plan, sales personnel will be taking a cut of $16,000 in compensation {$60,000 – ($30,000 + $14,000)}. In some circumstances, a commission may be expected to motivate staff to try to make more sales, although this has been assumed not to be the case for the Groove Music Store.
(c) Groove Music Store Projected Statement of Profit or Loss for the year ended 30 June 2017
Net sales Cost of sales Gross profit
$742,000 556,500 185,500
Operating expenses: Selling expenses* istrative expenses Finance expenses Profit
$72,840 20,000 5,000
97,840 $87,660
*$72,000 + 2% x ($742,000 - $700,000) = $72,840. If both plans are implemented, profit will be $58,660 ($87,660 - $29,000) higher than the 2015 results. This is an increase of over 200%. (d)
A variety of factors might be presented by the student. For example, increasing the quantity of inventory purchased will increase warehousing and other costs of inventory. It will also increase the risk of holding obsolete or out-of-fashion inventory. Reduced store deliveries may anger customers, especially if competitors provide more frequent service. Staff morale may be affected by the lower salaries which are not fully offset by commissions. Given the size of the increase, Frank’s plan to compensate sales personnel might be modified so that they would not have to take a pay cut. For example, if sales commissions were 3%, the compensation cut would be reduced to $7,740 [$60,000 – ($30,000 - $742,000 x 3%)]. Cutting salespersons’ salaries and making them more dependent on commissions might actually be viewed favourably by the sales staff if they have the potential to increase their total compensation.

ETHICS CASE Fine Foods
(a)
Sonya Packovski, as a new employee, is placed in a position of responsibility and is pressured by her supervisor to continue an unethical practice previously performed by him. The unethical practice is taking undeserved cash discounts. Her dilemma is either follow her boss’ unethical instructions or offend her boss and maybe lose the job she just assumed.
(b)
The stakeholders (affected parties) are: Sonya Packovski, the assistant ant Adam Fox, the ant Delicacy Foods, the company Creditors of Delicacy Foods (suppliers) Mail room employees (those assigned the blame) The Post Office (also assigned blame).
(c)
Sonya’s alternatives: 1.
Tell the ant (her boss) that she will attempt to take every allowable cash discount by preparing and mailing cheques within the discount period – the ethical thing to do. This will offend her boss and may jeopardise her continued employment.
2.
the team and continue the unethical practice of taking undeserved settlement discounts.
3.
Go over her boss’s head and take the chance of receiving just and reasonable treatment from an officer superior to Adam. The company may not condone this practice. Sonya definitely has a choice, but probably not without consequence. To continue the practice is definitely unethical. If Sonya submits to this request, she may be asked to perform other unethical tasks. If Sonya stands her ground and refuses to participate in this unethical practice, she probably won’t be asked to do other unethical things – if she isn’t fired. Maybe nobody has ever challenged Adam’s unethical behaviour and his reaction may be one of respect rather than anger and retribution. Being ethically compromised is no way to start a new job.
