...Part 1. Report to Danny Wilco To: Danny Wilco From: Kay Smith Subject: Re: Ordering product for EBBD from the Kentucky Hooch and Beer Company Background: Our efforts to increase sales of Kentucky Swamp Brew, for our college aged customers, Brew received mixed support from area retailers. For example, our advertising campaign was initially productive, we received a 75% increase in retail orders for three continuous weeks (the duration of the advertising campaign). However, retail orders dropped off 20% when the advertising campaign ended. We appeared to have limited insight on customer interest in Kentucky Swamp Brew and we also failed to properly coordinate with the brewery so they can have supplies on hand to meet projected and actual retail orders. Strategy: For product ordering, I employed a three phase strategy. The first phase was to order more products from KHBC Brewery then current retail order level so we would have inventory on hand to support increased orders, when the advertising efforts took effect. The second phase was to order products based on increased retail order level while adjusting the final order to compensate for brewery delivery in efficiencies. The third phase, towards the end of the Kentucky Swamp Brew sales campaign was to adjust ordering so excess inventory would be controlled. Results: From the attached excel product you will see that our ordering strategy was effective as we were able to stay up with customer demands, compensate...

...advice to a client who is currently a co-owner of a for-profit art gallery. The client is planning to purchase his coowner’s shares at a price to be determined based on their company’s recent financial performance. The company’s financial statements, prepared by the client’s co-owner, contain accounting choices and judgments that students should identify and evaluate using critical thinking skills. This case is suitable for use in introductory and intermediate financial accounting, and in introductory auditing and assurance courses. Accompanying the case is a set of teaching notes and assessment rubrics for use by instructors. THE CASE The Setting Wiki Art Gallery, Inc. (WAG) is a privately owned business started in 2006 by two students. Rob Wilco combined his entrepreneurial business interests with Stephen Conley’s knowledge of artwork to create an online art gallery, which they named WAG. WAG’s start-up years were challenging. The owners contributed their savings to the company, but initially earned little return on their significant investments of money and time. Propelled by a belief that their work would pay off, they persevered. Now, it appears their luck is changing. WAG became profitable in late 2009 and has reported a sizable net income for the year ended September 30, 2011. Both owners are excited by this turn of events. In the summer of 2010, Stephen had indicated he would like to buy out Rob, which coincided with Rob’s interest in leaving WAG and embarking on a new career...

...Relationship Between Unplanned Buying And Post Purchase Regret Introduction: The theory of cognitive dissonance was developed in 1957 by Leon Festiner. Festinger describes cognitive dissonance as a psychological state which results when a person perceives that two cognitions both of which he believes to be true, do not “fit” together; that is, they seem inconsistent. The resulting dissonance produces tension, which serves to motivate the individual to bring harmony to inconsistent elements and thereby reduce psychological tension (Loudon, Bitta 2006) Regret arises from individuals expending cognitive efforts to consider the chosen option against the rejected options (Inman, Dyer, and Jia 1997). Individuals must think in order to feel regret. For individuals to experience regret, they have to cognitively process and cross-compare one option (chosen) to another option (foregone). If the result of the comparison is perceived to be unfavourable (i.e. the foregone option is perceived to be better than the present option), then individuals are prone to feeling regret over their actions. According to Sugden (1985) regret has been known to be a painful sensation that arises as a result of comparing ‘what is’ with ‘what might have been. Regrets about what one has failed to do or what one has done are common. It has been defined as the negative cognitively-based emotion that we experience when realizing or imagining that our present situation would have...

...February 14, 2012 Stephen Conley Wiki Art Gallery, Inc. 117 Western Ave. Peoria, IL 61604 Stephen, Thank you for taking the time to meet with us.During our meeting, you stated that you (Stephen) are planning to purchase your co-owner’s (Rob Wilco) shares of Wiki Art Gallery, Inc. (WAG). As a private company, WAG’s shares do not have a readily available market price. However, you and Rob have agreed on calculating the buy-out price using the “earning multiplier” equal to five times the GAAP based net income for the year ended September 30, 2011.You stated that you would like an opinion regarding the 2011 financial information as it has not been audited. You would like to know whether WAG’s fiscal 2011net income fairly reports the company’s financial success as this will be the basis of your purchase price of the company. We discovered several areas of concern: revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts/bad debt, inventory valuation/cost of goods sold, capitalization/depreciation of assets, and accounting for dividends. We based our audit on the U.S. GAAP, IRS and FASB standards, which includes the sources listed at the end of this letter. Revenue Recognition Wag Company reports revenue when a price is agreed upon with a buyer. According to GAAP, revenue is recognized only when realized or realizable and when earned. Realized revenue is when products are exchanged for cash or claims to cash. Revenue in considered realizable when a promise to pay...

...Memorandum To: Wiki Art Gallery, Inc. – Stephen Conley CC: Rob Wilco From: Andrew Schechter Accounting Firm Date: [ 11/8/2012 ] Re: Financial Reporting Evaluations Confidential To whom it may concern, Our firm was given the task of identifying and evaluating the financial reporting choices attributable to the current financial condition of Wiki Art Gallery, Inc. (WAG). Our opinions/recommendations are unbiased and we believe are representative of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). After reviewing the significant events for fiscal years 2010 – 2011, the following recommendations were determined (please see subsequent paragraphs & Exhibit A for revised 2011 income statement). During September fiscal year 2011, two sales were recorded for artwork that was undelivered and not paid for as of year-end. GAAP states that revenues should only be recorded when they are earned (goods are transferred or services are rendered). Our recommendation, in accordance to GAAP, is that WAG not recognizes these sales until the goods are transferred. Recognizing the sales before they are delivered (not in accordance with GAAP) would overstate net income. Revenues from ‘Artwork Sales’ should be restated at $30,600. As a direct result of sales being adjusted due to revenue recognition issues in accordance to GAAP, the ‘Cost of Artwork Sold’ needs to be adjusted as well. The company currently states that the average cost per piece sold is $1,000. This amount (cost)...

...CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1. Introduction Have you ever stopped to think about where your electricity comes from? Nowadays, it is no longer only a question of ‘how much electricity do I want to use? However, this type of question which is ‘what kind of electricity do I want to use?’ is also count. In the case of Malaysia, most of the electricity is generated by burning coal and gas in power stations. These types of activities eventually will give such a negative impact towards the environment such as the critical global warming and climate change. Hence, a green ‘power’ or electricity that is environmentally friendly is needed in order to prevent the Earth from continually dying. So what is green electricity? As stated by Green Electricity Marketplace website, ‘green electricity’' is well defined as electricity that is produced from sources which is eco-friendly and do not cause any negative impacts towards the environment. It is undeniable that every type of electricity generation will have some impact upon the environment, but some sources are much environmentally friendly than others. The greenest energy sources are those which utilise the natural energy flows of the Earth and they are usually known as renewable energy sources as they will never run out. There are various studies were conducted to examined or analysed the green electricity. These kinds of studies, however, almost invariably focus on the conservative variables such as sources, cost and impact...
