This paper will focus on consequential effects of ethical and unethical financial reporting, and the cascading affects on all supporting investors of Riverside Bottling Company. Background Riverside Bottling Company has secured a substantial insurance loan, which requires the general ledger to maintain at least a $200,000 monthly balance to avoid penalty charges as specified in the loan agreement (Weygandt, 2008, p. 382). For the month ending June 30 the balance of cash resulted in a $120,000 deficit. As the assistant controller, I report the discrepancy to the financial vice president, Gena Schmitt. Gena instructs that the cash receipts ledger to remain open for an additional day, as a $150,000 payment will post to the bank on July One from Oconto Distributors, and recorded as part of June’s receivables, which fulfills the requirements of the loan agreement, but misrepresents true closing receivables (Weygandt, 2008, p. 382).
Synopsis: Toucon Collections, Inc. is an importer and distributor company with a history about 100 years. Now, its bargaining position has eroded and the gross margin slipped in recent years due to aggressive competitive bidding by others. And this case is about an opportunity for Toucon Collections to broaden their firm’s position through a contract with mass-merchandise store chain.

And they estimated the purchases to be at least $4 million annually.
Facts In 1983, GEICO announced plans to purchase several million shares of its outstanding common stock for $60 per share.

a) Prepare a cash budget for Sharpe covering the first seven months of 2004. b) Sharpe has $220,000 in notes payable due in July that must be repaid or renegotiated for an extension. Will the firm have ample cash to repay the notes? No, the firm will not have enough cash to pay the notes payable. Although there is enough ending cash if $200,000 is spent on the notes payable then there will be an insufficient amount to purchase raw materials or other expenditures. If the firm decides to use its cash for the notes payable it will then have to obtain financing to maintain the cash balance.

In February 63,000 jobs were lost (a 5-year record) and in September 159,000 jobs were lost, bringing the monthly average to 84,000 per month from January to September of 2008.

[6] In response, the U.S. government announced a series of comprehensive steps to address these problems. What followed has been a series of "case-by-case" decisions to intervene or not to intervene such as the $85 billion liquidity resourced for American International Group (AIG), the federal takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the bankruptcy of Lehman
Which is exactly What KKR had to do when they won. They had to sell off parts of the company off to pay for debt that they had dug themselves into buying the company. After KKR had completed the buyout, then had to shed about 46,000 employees after 1998 consequently they ended up having to sell off 6.2 billion dollars in assets to help get rid of the debt that they had incurred in taking over the company. During the First years of the KKR Reign the equity for the company fell from 24% to 16% from 1998 through 1994. We think that if Ross Johnson was able to take over the company for the original offer of 75 dollars a share things would have turned out a lot better for Nabisco because they shouldn’t have had to sell of as many assets or shed as much of the labor Force as KKR did when they bought the
FARNSWORTH COMPANY ABP FINAL REPORT Laureano Rodrigo Koch December 2011 Executive Summary As a board member representing the third shareholder family of Farnsworth, I am in disagreement with Mr. Thursday’s proposal to invest US$3’200,000 into new Decorative and Industrial presses, floor space and Working Capital. Understanding our need to continue growing in the laminated plastic product manufacturing industry, my recommendation and counterproposal is to invest US$800,000 in the purchase of the two Industrial laminate presses (including the corresponding expansion of floor space and working capital) and another US$1’600,000 into additional working capital to maintain our operations running due to critical cash shortage. This recommendation includes fully dedicating our resources into the industrial Laminated industry. This counterproposal will be financed through: i) Selling our Decorative Laminated assets in the short term; and ii) increased sales and working capital optimization in the medium term. Farnsworth Re-engineering In order to understand this recommendation we need to address two important decision criteria: a) Market potential; b) Profitability and Working Capital assessment.
