Royal Inc. issued 10-year, $100,000, 10% annual interest-bearing bonds with a carrying value of $88,800 as of December 31, 2020. Royal Inc. amortizes the discount using the effective interest method. At the time the bonds were issued on June 30, 2020, Royal Inc. elected to account for the bonds using the fair value option. In prepar-ing financial statements for 2020, Royal Inc. will need to make an adjusting entry to reflect the change in the fair value of the bonds.Required:a. Assume that the fair value of the $100,000 bonds is $80,000 on December 31, 2020. The decrease in fair value is due to general interest rate changes. Record the adjusting entry on December 31, 2020. b. Assume instead that the fair value of the $100,000 bonds is $95,000 on December 31, 2020. The increase in the fair value of the bonds is due entirely to a change in the credit risk of the debt.

Consider the case of Cranked Coffee Company:
Cranked Coffee Company is a mature firm that has a stable flow of business. The following data was taken from its financial statements last year:
Annual sales $10,200,000
Cost of goods sold $6,630,000
Inventory $3,200,000
Accounts receivable $2,200,000
Accounts payable $2,400,000
Cranked Coffee’s CFO is interested in determining the length of time funds are tied up in working capital. Use the information in the preceding table to complete the following table. (Note: Use 365 days as the length of a year in all calculations, and round all values to two decimal places.)
Value
Inventory conversion period 46.93; 41.71; 176.71; or 39.11
Average collection period 27.25; 78.73; 24.38; or 22.94
Payables deferral period 32.50; 41.07; 33.24; or 132.13
Cash conversion cycle 39.62; 122.77; 37.54; 45.88
B: Both the inventory conversion period and payables deferral period use the average daily COGS in their denominators, whereas the average collection period uses average daily sales in its denominator. Why do these measures use different inputs?
Inventory and accounts payable are carried at cost on the balance sheet, whereas accounts receivable are recorded at the price at which goods are sold.
Current assets should be divided by sales, but current liabilities should be divided by the COGS.
C. Is there generally a positive or negative relationship between net working capital and the cash conversion cycle?(In other words, if a firm has a high level of net working capital, is it likely to have a high or low cash conversion cycle?)
There is a positive relationship between net working capital and the cash conversion cycle.
There is a negative relationship between net working capital and the cash conversion cycle.

allow a 15% discount if payment is received within 2 days of the purchase, and if the discount is not taken the full amount is due in 60 days.
F. The management at Cranked Coffee Company wants to continue its internal discussions related to its cash management. One of the finance team members presents the following case to his cohorts:
Case in Discussion
Cranked Coffee Company’s management plans to finance its operations with bank loans that will be repaid as soon as cash is available. The company’s management expects that it will take 40 days to manufacture and sell its products and 35 days to receive payment from its customers. Cranked Coffee’s CFO has told the rest of the management team that they should expect the length of the bank loans to be approximately 75 days.
Which of the following responses to the CFO’s statement is most accurate?
The CFO is not taking into account the amount of time the company has to pay its suppliers. Generally, there is a certain length of time between the purchase of materials and labor and the payment of cash for them. The CFO can reduce the estimated length of the bank loan by this amount of time.
The CFO’s approximation of the length of the bank loans should be accurate, because it will take 75 days for the company to manufacture, sell, and collect cash for its goods. All these things must occur for the company to be able to repay its loans from the bank.
