Your client is a company that owns a shopping center with 30 store tenants. All leases with the store tenants provide for a fixed rent plus a percentage of sales, net of sales taxes, in excess of a fixed dollar amount computed on an annual basis. Each lease also provides that the lessor may engage CPAs to audit all records of the tenant for assurance that sales are being properly reported to the lessor.
You have been requested by your client to audit the records of Traders Restaurant to determine that the sales totaling $390,000 for the year ended December 31, 20X2, have been properly reported to the lessor.

You are the independent auditor engaged to audit Millay Corporation’s December 31, 2020, financial statements. Millay manufactures household appliances. During the course of your audit, you discovered the following contingent liabilities.
1. Millay began production of a new dishwasher in June 2020 and, by December 31, 2020, sold 120,000 to various retailers for $500 each. Each dishwasher is under a 1-year warranty. The company estimates that its warranty expense per dishwasher will amount to $25. At year-end, the company had already paid out $1,000,000 in warranty expenses. Millay’s income statement shows warranty expenses of $1,000,000 for 2020.
2. In response to your attorney’s letter, Morgan Sondgeroth, Esq., has informed you that Millay has been cited for dumping toxic waste into the Kishwaukee River. Clean-up costs and fines amount to $2,750,000. Although the case is still being contested, Sondgeroth is certain that Millay will most probably have to pay the fine and clean-up…

- You are an audit senior of OLA & Co, planning the final audit of a new client, EAHO Construction Co, for the year ending 30 September 2019. The company specialises in property construction and providing ongoing annual maintenance services for properties previously constructed. Forecast profit before tax is £12m. The audit manager has met with EAHO Co’s finance director and has provided you with the following notes. In line with industry practice, EAHO Co offers its customers a five-year building warranty, which covers any construction defects. Customers are not required to pay any additional fees to obtain the warranty. The finance director anticipates this provision will be lower than last year as the company has improved its building practices and therefore the quality of the finished properties. A full year-end inventory count will be undertaken on 30 September and there is no enough audit team resource to attend all inventory counts. A review of the management accounts shows…arrow_forwardConsider each of the following scenarios: a. A seller orally agrees with one of its best customers to deliver goods in exchange for 10,000. While the sellers practice is to obtain a written sales agreement, the seller delivered these goods to the customer without a written agreement due to the customers urgent need. b. A seller agrees to provide accounting services to a customer for the next year in exchange for 40,000. While the two parties are negotiating the terms of the agreement and the specific services to be performed, the seller begins to perform some services as a gesture of good faith. c. A seller has a written agreement to deliver goods to a customer for 50 per unit. The price will drop to 45 per unit if the customer purchases more than 2,000 units per month. d. A seller had a written agreement and provided custodial services to a customer for 2,000 per month in a previous year. The contract expired on December 31, 2019. During negotiations for a new contract in January 2020, custodial services were provided at the previous monthly rate and paid for by the buyer. The seller and the customer agree to a new contract on February 1, 2020. The seller is concerned whether a contract existed in January 2020 and whether revenue can be recognized. Required: 1. Determine if a contract exists for each of the scenarios. 2. If it is determined that a contract exists but the seller believes it is probable that it will not collect the expected consideration, how does this affect the sellers ability to recognize revenue?arrow_forwardYour client is preparing financial statements to show the bank. You know that he has incurred a refrigeration repair expense during the month, but you see no such expense on the books. When you question the client, he tells you that he has not yet paid the 1,255 bill. Your client is on the accrual basis of accounting. He does not want the refrigeration repair expense on the books as of the end of the month because he wants his profits to look good for the bank. Is your client behaving ethically by suggesting that the refrigeration repair expense not be booked until the 1,255 is paid? Are you behaving ethically if you agree to the clients request?
