,Analysis for Financial Management, 13e
SUGGESTED ANSWERS TO EVEN-NUMBERED PROBLEMS

Chapter 1

2. Management is either foolish or thinks its board is. Earning $100 million on a $5 billion
equity investment is a return of 2 percent, which is below any reasonable cost of equity.
As a board member, I would vote to cut management’s compensation, not raise it. I
would also criticize them for apparently attempting to deceive the board.
M

4. a. Cash rises $500,000; plant and equipment falls $300,000; equity rises $200,000.
b. Net plant and equipment rises $80 million; Cash falls $32 million; Bank debt rises
ED

$48 million.
c. Net plant and equipment rises $60 million; cash falls $60 million.
d. Cash falls $40,000; Accounts payable falls $40,000.
e. Cash falls $240,000; Owners’ equity falls by $240,000 (via an increase in Treasury
C

stock).
O

f. Cash rises $80,000; Inventory falls; Accrued taxes, Owners’ equity, and possibly
other cost categories rise such that the algebraic sum equals $80,000.
N

g. Accounts receivable rise $120,000. Other categories change as described in part f.
h. Cash falls $50,000. Owners’ equity falls by $50,000 (via Retained earnings).
N

6. a. R&E Supplies, Inc. Sources and Uses Statement 2018–2021 ($ thousands)
O
IS

Sources of cash:
Decrease in cash and securities $259
Increase in accounts payable 2,205
SE

Increase in current portion long-term debt 40
Increase in accrued wages 13
Increase in retained earnings 537
U

Total $3,054
Uses of cash:
R

Increase in accounts receivable $1,543
Increase in inventories 1,148
Increase in prepaid expenses 4
Increase in net fixed assets 159
Decrease in long-term debt 200
Total $3,054

,b. Insights:

i. R&E is making extensive use of trade credit to finance a buildup in current assets. The
increase in accounts payable equals almost three fourths of total sources of cash.
Increasing accounts receivable and inventories account for almost 90 percent of the
uses of cash.
ii. External long-term debt financing is a use of cash for R&E, meaning that it is repaying
its loans. A restructuring involving less reliance on accounts payable and more bank
debt appears appropriate.
M

8. Accounting income will be the value of the parcels sold, less their original purchase
price. So if all parcels are sold, the income is 5 × $16 million + 5 × $8 million – $100
ED

million = $20 million. Economic income will be the increase in the market value of the
land, whether sold or not, over the period. At the end of the first year, this will be $20
million. Answers to each part of the question appear below.
C

Question Accounting Income Economic Income
O

a. $20 million $20 million
b. $0 $20 million
N

c. –$10 million $20 million
d. $30 million $20 million
N

e. Too many companies have tried this. If the market value of a piece of land falls, the
O

owner loses whether he sells or not. The market price of the land fell because people
thought the future income stream to the owners was worth less. Continuing to hold
IS

the property forces the owner to accept the lower income. Whether the loss is
recognized or not might affect accounting earnings, but has nothing to do with
SE

reality.

10. The accounting profits from Desmond’s brewery are expected to be $60,000. These
accounting profits do not include the implicit cost of the entrepreneur’s time.
U

Desmond’s time is worth at least $70,000, the current income he will have to forego to
R

manage the brewery. When these implicit opportunity costs are included income falls
to:

$250,000 – $190,000 – $70,000 = –$10,000

This new venture will clearly reduce Desmond’s income, not increase it.
