Aggressive Corporation approaches Matt Taylor, a loan officer for Oklahoma State Bank, seeking to increase the company's borrowings with the bank from $100,000 to $150,000. Matt has an uneasy feeling as he examines the loan application from Aggressive Corporation, which just completed its first year of operations. The application included the following financial statements. The income statement submitted with the application shows a net income of $30,000 in the first year of operations. Referring to the balance sheet, this net income represents a more-than-acceptable 15% rate of return on assets of $200,000. Matt's concern stems from his recollection that the $100,000 note payable reported on the balance sheet is a three-year loan from his bank, approved earlier this year. He recalls another promising new company that, just recently, defaulted on its loan due to its inability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its loan obligations. Seeing Matt's hesitation, Larry Bling, the CEO…

Bob Jacobs wishes to expand his business and has borrowed $100,000. As a condition for making this loan, the bank requires that the business maintain a current ratio of at least 1.50. Business has been good but not great. The expansion costs have brought the current ratio down to 1.20 in the middle of December. Bob, as the owner of the business, is considering what might happen if he reports a current ratio of 1.4 to the bank. One possible action for Bob is to record in December $10,000 of revenue that the business will earn in January of next year. He thinks this is doable because the contract for this job has been signed. Journalize the revenue transaction and indicate how recording this revenue in December would affect the current ratio. Discuss whether it is ethical to record the revenue transaction in December. Identify the accounting principle relevant to this situation. and give the reasons underlying your conclusion. Propose an ethical action for Bob Jacobs.
