The partner in charge of the Kappeler Corporation audit comes by your desk and leaves a letter he has started to the CEO and a copy of the cash flow statement for the year ended December 31, 2017. Because he must leave on an emergency, he asks you to finish the letter by explaining: (1) the disparity between net income and cash flow, (2) the importance of operating cash flow, (3) the renewable source(s) of cash flow, and (4) possible suggestions to improve the cash position.
Date
President Kappeler, CEO
Kappeler Corporation
125 Wall Street
Middleton, Kansas 67458
Dear Mr. Kappeler:
I have good news and bad news about the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. The good news is that net income of $100,000 is close to what we predicted in the strategic plan last year, indicating strong performance this year. The bad news is that the cash balance is seriously low. Enclosed is the Statement of Cash Flows, which best illustrates how both of these situations occurred simultaneously . . .
Instructions
Complete the letter to the CEO, including the four components requested by your boss.
The New York Knicks, Inc. sold 10,000 season tickets at $2,000 each. By December 31, 2017, 16 of the 40 home games had been played. What amount should be reported as a current liability at December 31, 2017?
Use the information presented in BE5-14 for Martinez Corporation to compute the net cash used (provided) by financing activities.
BE5-14 (L05) Martinez Corporation engaged in the following cash transactions during 2017.
Sale of land and building $191,000
Purchase of treasury stock 40,000
Purchase of land 37,000
Payment of cash dividend 95,000
Purchase of equipment 53,000
Issuance of common stock 147,000
Retirement of bonds 100,000
Compute the net cash provided (used) by investing activities.
The net income for the year for Genesis, Inc. is \(750,000, but the statement of cash flows reports that the net cash provided by operating activities is \)640,000. What might account for the difference?
BE5-3 (L03) Included in Outkast Company’s December 31, 2017, trial balance are the following accounts: Prepaid Rent \(5,200, Debt Investments (to be held to maturity until 2020) \)56,000, Unearned Fees \(17,000, Land (held for investment) \)39,000, and Notes Receivable (long-term) $42,000. Prepare the long-term investments section of the balance sheet.
