The correct answer was A)

ABC Company Adjusted Balance Sheet (in thousands of dollars)
Assets			Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity
Cash	$5,000		Accounts payable	$18,000
Marketable securities	3,000		Notes payable	7,000
Accounts receivable	20,000		Total current liabilities	$25,000
Inventories	10,000
Total current assets	$38,000		Long-term debt	$25,000
			Capitalized operating leases	10,000
Net P, P, & E	$90,000		Preferred stock (100,000 shares)	$5,000
Intangible assets	2,000		Common stock (4 million shares)	40,000
			Retained earnings	32,000
Total assets	$130,000		Equity adjustments	-7,000
			Total stockholders' equity	$70,000
			Total liabilities & equity	$130,000

Equity adjustments: -$8,000 [goodwill] -1,000 [increase in long-term debt] + 2,000 [decrease in preferred stock] = -$7,000

$35,000 / $70,000 = 0.500

12.ABC's fixed asset turnover based on the adjusted balance sheet is:

A)   1.92 times.

B)   1.95 times.

C)   2.78 times.

D)   3.13 times.

The correct answer was C)

ABC Company Adjusted Balance Sheet (in thousands of dollars)
Assets			Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity
Cash	$5,000		Accounts payable	$18,000
Marketable securities	3,000		Notes payable	7,000
Accounts receivable	20,000		Total current liabilities	$25,000
Inventories	10,000
Total current assets	$38,000		Long-term debt	$25,000
			Capitalized operating leases	10,000
Net P, P, & E	$90,000		Preferred stock (100,000 shares)	$5,000
Intangible assets	2,000		Common stock (4 million shares)	40,000
			Retained earnings	32,000
Total assets	$130,000		Equity adjustments	-7,000
			Total stockholders' equity	$70,000
			Total liabilities & equity	$130,000

Equity adjustments: -$8,000 [goodwill] -1,000 [increase in long-term debt] + 2,000 [decrease in preferred stock] = -$7,000

PPE on the adjusted balance sheet is adjusted upward by capitalizing the operating leases by their present value of $10,000. New net PPE = $80,000 + $10,000 leases = $90,000

Fixed asset turnover = sales/fixed assets = $250,000/$90,000 = 2.78

C)   an increase in the reported postretirement obligation of $0.5 million.

D)   an increase in the reported postretirement obligation of $2.5 million.

The correct answer was B)    

The excess of the accrued cost over the obligation is the excess accrual (i.e., $3 million - 2.5 million), which reduces the firm's liability.
