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 4-70 CONTINUING PROBLEM: FRONT ROW ENTERTAINMENT Over the next 2 months, Front Row Entertainment continued to enjoy success in signing artists and promoting their events. However, the increased business has put considerable stress on keeping timely and up-to-date financial records. In particular, both Cam and Anna are concerned with the accounting and management of the companys cash. The tour promotion industry is a cash-intensive industry, normally requiring large prepayments to secure venues and arrange advertising. When the number of artists under contract were small, Cam and Anna developed a simple system to manage the companys cash. Normally, any cash received was put in a file cabinet in the companys office. If the amount appeared to be getting large, a deposit was made. Similarly, if a large check needed to be written, either Cam or Anna would check the balance in the checkbook. If cash was not sufficient to cover the check, they'd get cash from the file cabinet and deposit the amount necessary to cover the check. However, with the increasing business, they would often forget to make deposits, causing several checks to be returned for non-sufficient funds. In addition, they were in the process of hiring additional office staff who would start work on May l. They knew that leaving cash in a file cabinet would not be a good idea. In order to obtain a better understanding of their cash position, Anna decides to perform a bank reconciliation-something she had failed to do since the company was started. According to the accounting records, the cash balance at April 30 was $7,495. Anna obtained the following information from Front Rows April bank statement and an analysis of canceled checks and deposits: Balance per bank at April 30 $3,250 Deposits in transit at April 30 4,370 Outstanding checks as of April 30 1,160 Debit memo for April utilities 845 Bank service charge for April 50 Interest earned during April 450 NSF check from customer 590 Required: CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Discuss the purpose Of an internal control System. How would the development of an internal control system benefit Front Row Entertainment? In your answer, be sure to highlight any problems that you noted with Front Row Entertainments current system of accounting for cash.arrow_forward
