Candy, who is not currently in business, is considering buying these shirts and then renting a display cart from which to sell these shirts (called a kiosk) in a shopping mall. Based on the following information and estimates, Candy needs to decide if the business would be profitable:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cost of the 40,000 shirts, all of which must be purchased in January 2009, is $ 440,000.<\/li>\n<li>Candy thinks it would take two years to sell all of the shirts. She estimates her sales at 25,000 shirts in 2009 and 15,000 shirts in 2010.<\/li>\n<li>Rent of the kiosk would be $ 1,500 per month in 2009 and $ 1,600 per month in 2010.<\/li>\n<li>Candy can buy some counters on which to display the merchandise for $ 4,000. She could sell the counters for $ 500 at the end of the second year.<\/li>\n<li>Candy estimates the cost to decorate her kiosk would be $ 2,500.<\/li>\n<li>Candy would hire employees and pay them $ 1 per shirt sold.<\/li>\n<li>Candy plans to sell the shirts for $ 17 each.<\/li>\n<li>Candy and her husband purchased $ 100,000 of capital stock in the business. Therefore, she plans to borrow $ 400,000 from their family banker. Interest expense on this loan will be $ 52,000 in 2009 and $ 6,500 in 2010. Candy plans to repay $ 300,000 on 2010 January 2, and the remaining $ 100,000 on 2010 July 1<\/li>\n<li>Candy needs to rent some storage space because all 40,000 shirts cannot be stored at the kiosk. Storage space costs $ 2,500 per year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Prepare estimated income statements for 2009 and 2010 for Candy&#8217;s business. Does it appear that the business will be profitable?<\/li>\n<li>Will Candy have the cash available to pay the bank loan as she planned?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b><strong>Business decision case B <\/strong><\/b>In the Annual report appendix, refer to the consolidated statements of earnings for The Limited&#8217;s most recent three years. Calculate the gross margin percentage and write an explanation of what the results mean for each of the three years.<\/p>\n<p><b><strong>Annual report analysis C <\/strong><\/b>Refer to the consolidated statements of income of The Limited in the Annual report appendix. Identify the 2000, 1999, and 1998 net sales; cost of goods sold; gross profit; selling, administrative, and general expenses; and operating income. Do the results present a favorable trend? Comment on the results.<\/p>\n<p><b><strong>Ethics case \u2013 Writing experience D <\/strong><\/b>Based on the ethics case related to World Auto Parts Corporation, respond in writing to the following questions:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Do you agree that the total impact of this practice could be as much as $ 10 million?<\/li>\n<li>Are the small suppliers probably better off going along with the practice?<\/li>\n<li>Is this practice ethical?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b><strong>Group project E <\/strong><\/b>In teams of two or three students, go to the library (or find an annual report at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sec.gov\/edgar.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">www.sec.gov\/edgar.shtml<\/a>) to locate one merchandising company&#8217;s annual report for the most recent year. Calculate the company&#8217;s gross margin percentage for each of the most recent three years. As a team, write a memorandum to the instructor showing your calculations and commenting on the results. The heading of the memorandum should contain the date, to whom it is written, from whom, and the subject matter.<\/p>\n<p><b><strong>Group project F <\/strong><\/b>In a team of two or three students, contact a variety of businesses in your area and inquire as to the types of sales discount terms they offer to credit customers and the types of purchase discount terms they are offered by their suppliers. Calculate the approximate annual rate of interest implied in several of the more common discount terms. For instance, the book states that the implied annual rate of interest on terms of 2\/10, n\/30 is 36 per cent, assuming we use a 360-day year. Present your findings in a written report to your instructor.<\/p>\n<p><b><strong>Group project G <\/strong><\/b>In a team of two or three students, obtain access to several annual reports of companies in different industries (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sec.gov\/edgar.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">www.sec.gov\/edgar.shtm<\/a>l.) Examine their income statements and identify differences in their formats. Discuss these differences within your group and then present your findings in a report to your instructor.<\/p>\n<p><b><strong>Using the Internet\u2014A view of the real world<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Visit the Fat Brains Toys website at:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rainfall.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/fatbraintoys.com<\/a> website<\/p>\n<p>Browse around the site for interesting information.
