- Communication The senior management of Tungston Company has proposed the following three performance measures for the company: 1.Net income as a percent of stockholder equity 2.Revenue growth 3.Employee satisfaction Management believes that these three measures combine both financial and nonfinancial measures and are thus superior to using just financial measures. Write a brief memo to David Tungston, the company president, providing suggestions on how to improve the companys performance measurement system.arrow_forwardEthics in Action Lucas Hunter, president of Simmons Industries Inc., believes that reporting operating cash flow per share on the income statement would be a useful addition to the companys just completed financial statements. The following discussion took place between Lucas Hunter and Simmons' controller, John Jameson, in January, after the close of the fiscal year: Lucas: Ive been reviewing our financial statements for the last year. I am disappointed that our net income per share has dropped by 10% from last year. This won't look good to our shareholders. Is there anything we can do about this? John. What do you means? The past is the past, and the numbers are in. There isnt much that can be done about it Our financial statements were prepared according to generally accepted accounting principles, and I dont see much leeway for significant change at this point. Lucan No, no. Ive not suggesting that we cook the books. But look at the cash flow from operating activities on the statement of cash flows. The cash flow from operating activities has increased by 20%. This is very good newsand. I might add, useful information. The higher cash flow from operating activities will give our creditors comfort. John. Well, the cash flow from operating activities is on the statement of cash flows, so I guess users will be able to see the improved cash flow figures there Lucas: This is true, but somehow I think this information should be given a much higher profile. I don't like this information being buried in the statement of cash flows. You know as well as I do that many users will focus on the income statement Therefore. I think we ought to include an operating cash flow per share number on the face of the income statementsomeplace under the earnings per share number In this way, users will get the complete picture of our operating performance. Yes, our earnings per share dropped this year, but our cash flow from operating activities improved! And all the information is in one place where users can see and compare the figures. What do you think? John I've never really thought about it like that before I guess we could put the operating cash flow per share on the income statement, underneath the earnings per share amount. Users would really benefit from this disclosure. Thanks for the ideaI'll start working on it. Lucas: Glad to be of service. How would you interpret this situation? Is John behaving in an ethical and professional manner?arrow_forwardCase 1-74 Comparative Analysis: Under Armour, lnc., versus Columbia Sportswear Refer to the 10-K reports of Under Armour, Inc., and Columbia Sportswear that are available for download from the companion website at CengageBrain.com Required: Answer the following questions: What is managements assessment of each companys past performance and future prospects?
