If a firm pays its bills with a 30-day delay, what fraction of its purchases will be paid for in the current quarter? In the following quarter? What if its payment delay is 60 days? *Chapter20 quiz problem 4 Lock Boxes. Anne Teak, the financial manager of a furniture manufacturer, is considering operating a lock-box system. She forecasts that 400 payments a day will be made to lock boxes with an average payment size of $2,000. The bank`s charge for operating the lock boxes is $.40 a check.

What minimum reduction in the time to collect and process each check is needed to justify use of the lock-box system? *Accounting Concepts Operating Activitiesclling a Product Exercise 7-17 Assessing How Well Companies Manage Their Receivables Assume that Hickory Company has the following data related to its accounts receivable: 2005 2006 Net sales . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,425,000 $1,650,000 Net receivables: Beginning of year . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 375,000 333,500 End of year . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 420,000 375,000 Use these data to compute accounts receivable turnover ratios and average collection periods for 2005 and 2006. Based on your analysis, is Hickory Company managing its receivables better or worse in 2006 than it did in 2005? *Case 7-3 Credit Policy Review The president, vice president, and sales manager of Moorer Corporation were discussing the company`s present credit policy. The sales manager suggested that potential sales were being lost to competitors because of Moorer Corporation`s tight restrictions on granting credit to consumers. He stated that if credit policies were loosened, the current year`s estimated credit sales of $3,000,000 could be increased by at least 20% next year with an increase in uncollectible accounts receivable of only $10,000 over this year`s amount of $37,500. He argued that because the company`s cost of sales is only 25% of revenues, the company would certainly come out ahead. The vice president, however, suggested that a better alternative to easier credit terms would be to accept consumer credit cards such as VISA or MASTERCARD. She argued that this alternative could increase sales by 40%. The credit card finance charges to Moorer Corporation would be 4% of the additional sales. At this point, the president interrupted by saying that he wasn`t at all sure that increasing credit sales of any kind was a good thing. In fact, he suggested that the $37,500 of uncollectible accounts receivable was altogether too high. He wondered whether the company should discontinue offering sales on account. With the information given, determine whether Moorer Corporation would be better off under the sales manager`s proposal or the vice president`s proposal. Also, address the president`s suggestion that credit sales of all types be abolished. *Accounting Concepts Chapter21 Problem 21-5 The president of Penman Corporation, John Burton, has asked you, the company`s controller, to advise him on whether Penman should develop a just-in-time (JIT) inventory system. Your research concludes that there is a high cost associated with inventory storage facilities; that inventories use a large portion of the company`s cash flow; and that because of the nature of the inventory, there is a significant amount of shrinkage. Research also shows that neither of Penman`s two competitors uses a JIT inventory system. Most of Penman`s employees are trained to do only one job and belong to a local union. The union is strong and, in the past, has opposed major production changes. The union believes major changes will result in the loss of union employees` jobs. Your research indicates that Penman`s major production item (a fairly new product in the market) should continue to have strong sales growth. Required: 1. Using the information provided, advise John Burton to either continue the present system or work to develop a JIT inventory system. 2. Assume John decides to develop an inventory management system. He plans to evaluate the system after one year. List at least four possible performance measures John could use to evaluate the effectiveness of the system. Describe what information these measures would provide John.

Sam McKenzie is the founder and CEO of McKenzie Restaurants, Inc., a regional company. Sam is considering opening several new restaurants. Sally Thornton, the company CFO, has been put in charge of the capital budgeting analysis. She has examined the potential for the company expansion and determined that the success of the new restaurants will depend critically on the state of the economy next year and over the next few years. McKenzie currently has a bond issue outstanding with a face value of $25 (28) million that is due in one year. Covenants associated with this bond issue prohibit the issuance of any additional debt. This restriction means that the expansion will be entirely financed with equity, at a cost of $9 million. Sally has summarized her analysis in the following table, which shows the value of the company in each state of the economy next year, both with and without expansion.
