Exhibits 3.28 and 3.29 present the firms balance sheets and income statements for Years 1 through 4. REQUIRED a. Prepare a worksheet for the preparation of a statement of cash flows for Nojiri Pharmaceutical Industries for each of the years ending March 31, Year 2 to Year 4. Follow the format of Exhibit 3.14 in the text.

The remaining changes in Investments in Securities result from purchases and sales. Assume that the sales occurred at no gain or loss. (2) No sales of property, plant, and equipment took place during the three-year period. (3) The changes in Other Noncurrent Assets are investing activities.

(5) The changes in Other Noncurrent Liabilities are financing activities. b. Prepare a comparative statement of cash flows for Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4. c.

Exhibit 3.26 provides the statement of cash flows for Year 1 and Year 2, which includes a footnote from the financial statements. Year 2 was characterized by weakening consumer demand for air travel due to a recession and record high fuel prices.

Nello has been in financial difficulty, so its suppliers require purchases to he paid in cash. Furthermore, Nello has long-term debt with a debt covenant that requires it to maintain a 1:1 acid-test (quick) ratio. Nellos employees work a 5-day week, Monday through Friday. On Wednesday morning during the last week of the current year, Sam (the production supervisor) comes to you and says, I dont understand it. We have this large special order from a customer that must be delivered at the end of the first week in January. Once we get the raw materials, it is going to take 5 solid days of work without overtime to produce the order. If Bob (the president) would let me order the raw materials this morning, we could have them by late today. This would give us 2 days this week and the 4 days after New Years Day (Monday) of next week to complete the order without incurring overtime costs. But Bob says we must wait until next Tuesday to order the materials. This means we will have to work double time that Wednesday through Friday to finish the order. That overtime cost is going to really increase next years factory salary expense, so our profit and operating cash flows from that order will be very low. Please talk to him. When you approach Bob about buying the raw materials this morning, he says, If we purchase those materials today, we will have to write a check. And that means our cash flow from operating activities for this year will be much lower, which our shareholders wont like. Furthermore, our quick ratio will go down from 1.01:1 to 0.90:1, so our creditors may be upset. I know our profit and operating cash flows for next year will be lower if we delay the purchase, but that seems to be the best decision. Dont you agree? Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, how would you respond to Bob?arrow_forward
