...HBSP Product Number TCG 5 rP os t THE CRIMSON PRESS CURRICULUM CENTER THE CRIMSON GROUP, INC. Lakeside Hospital A hospital just can’t afford to operate a department at 50 percent capacity. If we average 20 dialysis patients, it costs us $425 per treatment, and we’re only paid $250. If a department can’t cover its costs, including a fair share of overhead, it isn’t self-sufficient and I don’t think we should carry it. op yo Peter Lawrence, M.D., Director of Specialty Services at Lakeside Hospital, was addressing James Newell, M.D., Chief Nephrologist of Lakeside’s Renal Division, concerning a change in Medicare’s payment policies for hemodialysis treatments. Recently, Medicare had begun paying independent dialysis clinics for standard dialysis treatments, and the change in policy had caused patient volume in Lakeside’s dialysis unit to decrease to about 50 percent of capacity, producing a corresponding increase in per-treatment costs. By February of the current fiscal year, Dr. Lawrence and Lakeside’s Medical Director were considering closing the hospital’s dialysis unit. Dr. Newell, who had been Chief Nephrologist since he’d helped establish the unit, was opposed to closing it. Although he was impressed by the quality of care that independent centers offered, he was convinced that Lakeside’s unit was necessary for providing back-up and emergency services for the outpatient centers, as well as for treatment for some of the hospital’s seriously ill inpatients. Furthermore...

...The Lakeside Company Date: January 2013 To: Dan Cline From: Wallace Andrews, Manager Subject: Transactions Regarding The Lakeside Company’s Seventh Store In response to your request for information on partnerships seeking to help animal welfare, I have found information regarding efforts within our community. In Delaware, recent legislation has been put into place, backed by organizations seeking to improve the treatment of animals, relating to the dangers humans pose on pets as well as the dangers these pets pose to humans. In addition, new organizations are pushing to spread awareness on how to protect your pets. These efforts affect Delaware pet owners as well as the First State Animal Center and SPCA, the statewide organization seeking to prevent cruelty and suffering to animals as well as the fair adoption of pets into homes. Each piece of legislation targets a need of the FSAC and is supported by partnerships. First, a bill has been passed to promote the management of shelter standards, the humane killing of animals in shelters. Through ongoing collaborations with the governor’s office and the General Delaware Assembly, shelters are now required to evaluate animals in depth before deciding whether or not to euthanize. Also, shelters throughout Delaware are being forced to eliminate inhumane gas shelters if euthanasia is chosen. Second, a bill was passed “relating to the training and certification of Animal Control Officers and Animal Cruelty Investigators...

...in this audit with Lakeside Company, in order from one to seven, with one being the most important to the audit: 1. There appears to be a going concern for the industry that the Lakeside company is in. In 2005, Lakeside was in trouble, but has somewhat made a turnaround in 2010 and 2011; however, there are companies similar to Lakeside that are still going out of business. Within the last six months, and audio equipment company within the Richmond area went bankrupt. Also, while Roger’s distributorship business is growing, it seems that the remainder of his business is stagnant. In addition, it appears that Rogers has strayed from his original retail store operation into a new product market that may not be strong enough to support. With a failed product line in connecting with a weak market and continuous expansion on the basis of debt, this is a concern for the audit as an entity’s ability to remain a going concern and the potential for management fraud to inflate earnings and growth. 2. Rogers’ refusal to comply with his previous auditors request to report the companies sixth store with a write down in value to assess impairment, because Rogers believed no impairment existed. This argument led to the issue of a qualified opinion. The sixth store is located in an unsuccessful shopping center and has been underperforming. The company has not even come close to breaking-even and the failures of the shopping center make it appear uncertain if Lakeside could continue as...

...UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS MEMORANDUM TO: Dr. Newell FROM: DATE: February 14, 2013 SUBJECT: Lakeside Hospital Renal Dialysis Unit Analysis Introduction Dr. Peter Lawrence noted that as a result of an alteration in Medicare’s payment policies for hemodialysis treatments, the Renal Dialysis Unit in Lakeside Hospital will be terminated unless he can show that the unit covers its costs in addition to an adequate portion of the overhead costs. In the memorandum, I will explain the pros and cons of retaining the dialysis unit, an assessment of the results of the CVP analysis, and offer you recommendations. Renal Dialysis Unit Mission The mission of the Renal Dialysis Division is to provide hemodialysis treatment for the increasing number of patients with chronic kidney disease. Because Medicare’s policy has recently changed, the number of patients in the renal dialysis unit has dropped to fifty percent; as a result, the unit has been only providing 3120 treatments to patients with end-stage renal disease. In dialysis, part of the patient’s blood is cleaned as it circulates in an artificial kidney machine. Advantages And Disadvantages of Retaining The Dialysis Unit Based on the analysis, if the dialysis unit continues to operate as it is currently or even consolidates patients to a single shift, the unit will continue treating its patients with chronic kidney disease. If Lakeside Hospital retains the unit, this is advantageous because the patients with end-stage renal disease...

...DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Both the company’s bank and Lakeside owners would require an independent CPA firm to avoid any biases and upkeep the independence in auditing. 2. Under generally accepted auditing standards the audit is to be performed by a person or persons having adequate training which is interpreted to mean ‘technically qualified and experienced in those industries in which their clients are engaged” (Arens, Elder, Beasley, & Hogan, 2010, p. 35). This interpretation is based on recent court cases. With that information in mind this engagement should not be accepted. Care industry is significantly different than electronics so I would believe an audit in each industry would be considerably different. The auditor should certainly discuss the lack of expertise and possibly consider having a contract or new hired personnel to assist with such an audit. 3. Provided the employees truly have an understanding of how to achieve a profit sharing bonus, auditors may be concerned with the decision making of the employees. employees loyalty would be torn between providing the most independent unbiased information for the customer and the information that will provide their family with additional income. 4. A firm does face independence issues with auditing the output of systems the designed and installed regardless if the company is publicly traded or not. As the creator of the system the company may be biased as to how well the system works. The assumption that they created...

...Lakeside Auditing Case Study Case 1 Prepared by: January 27, 2011 1: An independent annual audit can provide credibility to information, and this could be very helpful for decision making. In this specific case, the owner of the Lakeside requires an independent CPA firm to perform an annual audit because the owner wants to show the public a “good-look” of its financial statements; since he would like to receive more capital by making his company public. In addition, good-looking financial statements of the company could provide good credit from the bank. To the lakeside company, the owner would like to provide audited financial statement to the bank to obtain the loan and receive the best possible interest rate. On the other hand, a decision by a bank loan officer about whether to make a loan to Lakeside Company and what rate of interest adequately compensates the bank for the level of risk assumed depends on an independent auditing report about lakeside’s financial reports. An auditing report about the company is reliable for the bank; it can significantly reduce the level of information risk. If the loan officer has assurance from the auditors that the company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, he or she will have more confidence in his or her assessment of business risk. By reducing information risk, the audit reduces the overall risk to the bank. 2: According to GAAS, the auditor must obtain a sufficient understanding of the entity and...

...Auditing Cases AUDITING PROCEDURES AND AUDITING DOCUMENTATION: TESTING THE INVENTORY PURCHASING SYSTEM Art Heyman is employed as a staff auditor with the independent accounting firm of Abernethy and Chapman. For the first two weeks of December 2012, Heyman is asined to the Lakeside Company examination. During this period, he is to perform a number of testing procedures designed by Carole Mitchell, in-charge auditor on the engagement. Heyman recalled that several parts of the initial risk brainstorming involved inventory and merchandise purchases. At the present time, Heyman is beginning to analyze the transactions that occur in the client's merchandise procurement system. Within this testing, he is especially interested in determining the extent to which employees comply with control procedures while carrying out various required activities. This evaluation will influence the assessment of control risk and therefore, the nature, timing, and extent of substantive tests to be performed by the firm in this area. Lakeside leases a perpetual inventory record accounting system from DATA Processing System of Richmond, an outside service organization. The initial entries are made by the Controller's division of Lakeside, and on a weekly basis the transactions are uploaded through DATA Processing Systems' website. Reports are then generated, and one copy of the current inventory balances goes to Edward Thomas, who is responsible for acquiring merchandise, while a second list is conveyed...

...DISCUSSION 1. A company profit-sharing arrangement is a matter of auditor concern because it provides an incentive for employees to generate artificially high income figures. These individuals can receive direct financial benefits from the manipulation of reported earnings. This potential problem is even more of a concern in the Lakeside engagement because controls are weak and each store is geographically isolated from the oversight provided by the administrative offices. 2. This case describes the payroll system used by the Lakeside Company. Tests of controls are designed by the auditor to verify that specific control features identified as possible strengths are operating effectively. A sample of such tests would include the following: a. Compare the payroll records produced by Sarah Sweet to time tickets completed by hourly employees noting agreement as to hours worked; b. Verify that time tickets have been appropriately authorized; c. Recalculate salaried employees' monthly pay and compare to the payroll records; d. d. Recalculate salesmen's commissions and compare to payroll records; e. Recalculate payroll deductions based on government payroll tables and the data listed on the W-4 form filed by each employee. Compare these deductions to the company's payroll records; f. Recompute Lakeside's payroll taxes and compare to total reported balance; g. Verify mathematical accuracy of net wage figures (salary less deductions); h. Foot the...
