SUBJECT: Advantagesanddisadvantagesof borrowing versusissuingstockto raisecashfor expansion Raising money by borrowing has at least two advantages over issuing commonstock. Borrowing does not change the present ownership of the business. It enables the present owners to keep their proportionate interests in the business and to carry out their plans without interference from a new group of stockholders. Under normal conditions, borrowingresults in a higher earningsper share of commonstock, because the interestexpenseon the debt is tax-deductible.Andhigherearningsper shareusually lead to higherstockpricesfor companyowners. The main disadvantage of borrowing is that the debt increases the financial risk of the company. The principal and the related interest expense must be paid whether the company is earning a profit or not. If times get sufficiently bad, the debt burden could threatenthe ability of the businessto continueas a goingconcern. The main advantageof issuingstock is that ownersavoid the burdenof makinginterest and principal paymentson the debt. Issuingstock createsno liability to pay anythingto the owners. If the directors consider it necessary, they can refuse to pay dividends in orderto conservecash.Therefore,it is safer to issuestock.

Chapter 9

(continued) P 9-74A

One disadvantage of issuing stock is dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders if the purchasers of new stock are outsiders. The new stockholders may havedifferentideasabouthowto managethe businessand that mayposedifficultiesfor the original stockholder group. Another disadvantage of issuing stock is that earnings per share are usually lower because of (1) the greater number of shares of stock outstanding,and(2) the non-tax-deductibilityof dividendspaid on the stock. There is insufficient information available upon which to make a decision. Tony’s managementmust preparebudgetswhichindicatethe impactof the newstoresin terms of net incomeand cash flow. Managementmust also estimatethe cost of borrowingthe funds.

SUBJECT: Advantagesanddisadvantagesof borrowing versusissuingstockto raisecashfor expansion Raising money by borrowing has at least two advantages over issuing commonstock. Borrowing does not change the present ownership of the business. It enables the present owners to keep their proportionate interests in the business and to carry out their plans without interference from a new group of stockholders. Under normal conditions, borrowingresults in a higher earningsper share of commonstock, because the interestexpenseon the debt is tax-deductible.Andhigherearningsper shareusually lead to higherstockpricesfor companyowners. The main disadvantage of borrowing is that the debt increases the financial risk of the company. The principal and the related interest expense must be paid whether the company is earning a profit or not. If times get sufficiently bad, the debt burden could threatenthe ability of the businessto continueas a goingconcern.

The main advantageof issuingstock is that ownersavoid the burdenof makinginterest and principal paymentson the debt. Issuingstock createsno liability to pay anythingto the owners. If the directors consider it necessary, they can refuse to pay dividends in orderto conservecash.Therefore,it is safer to issuestock.

The new stockholders may havedifferentideasabouthowto managethe businessand that mayposedifficultiesfor the original stockholder group. Another disadvantage of issuing stock is that earnings per share are usually lower because of (1) the greater number of shares of stock outstanding,and(2) the non-tax-deductibilityof dividendspaid on the stock.

EthicalIssue1 Req. 1 A company would prefer not to disclose its contingent liabilities because they cast a shadowon the businessand createa negativeimpression.

Req. 2 and 3 The potential parties and economic consequences of the decision not to disclose contingentliabilitiesare:

1. The bank and its shareholders: With misleading information, they might extend additional funds to the borrower assuming a better ability to pay back the funds than actually exists. A contingent liability creates risk for a company. If the contingent liability is not reported, the bank may view the companyas low-risk. This may lead the bank to loan moneyat low interest rates and with easy paymentterms. With knowledge of the contingent liability, the bank might not have made the loan at all. Or the bank might have required a higher interest rate or more stringent payment terms. Making loanson too-easytermsrobsthe bank’sownersof their money.

2. The companyseekingthe loan: Mightbecomeoverextendedin its borrowingand risk default on debt in the future.

Req. 3 Legal and ethical consequences

9-106

Financial Accounting 9/e Solutions Manual

Banks have legal requirements to keep certain ratios of assets and liabilities on their booksor risk default. Failureof a companyto report (continued)EthicalIssue1 its contingentliabilities to a bank requestingthis disclosurecould subject the company to a lawsuitlater on.

Froman ethical standpoint, reporting a contingent liability requires a delicate balancing act. Ethics require that outsiders’ interests be protected. The company must disclose enoughinformationto give outsidersa reasonablebasis for makinginformeddecisions about the company. At the same time, the company should avoid giving away secrets that could damageits owners’investmentin the business.This dilemmais clear whena defendant fears losing an important lawsuit. Fortunately for accountants, most companies settle out of court those lawsuits that they expect to lose. In such cases, thereare no contingentliabilitiesto disclose. Req. 4

As discussedin the chapter, changesare being discussedbetweenthe FASBand IASB about a new standard for reporting contingencies. It is likely that, in the future, more losses resulting from lawsuits and other contingenciesare likely to be disclosed in the bodyand the footnotesof financialstatements.

EthicalIssue2 1. The ethical issueis whetherto structurethis leaseto avoid its havingto be disclosed as a capital lease. The companywill do that if it is possible. It appearsthat Gockerand Moranhavesomeflexibility in settingthe life of the lease(4-6 years). If they set the term of the lease at 4 years, it will be only 66 2/3 percent of the economiclife of the asset (6 years). Thus, the leasewill fail all of the mechanicaltests for the leaseto be treatedas a capital lease, and by default, it will be treated as an operating lease, and Gocker can avoidcapitalizingthe assetand includingthe liability on her financialstatements. If they set the term of the lease at 5 or 6 years, it will exceed 75% of the economic life of the asset, and thusthe leasewill haveto be capitalized.

2. The stakeholdersare Gocker, the lessee;Morgan,the lessor; and Last NationalBank, Gocker’spresentcreditor. The potentialconsequencesto the stakeholdersare:

a. economic: If the leaseis structuredas a capital lease, Gockerwill violate

its

long-term loan covenant with Last National Bank. As a result, the bank might demand immediate payment of their loan. This may damage Gocker’s credit rating and create difficultygettingfuturebankloans. Alternatively,Last NationalBankmaywaivethe loan covenantin exchangefor a higherinterest rate or morestringentrepaymentterms. This too could cause Gocker financial difficulties. Morgan is not affected economically, becauseMorganwill receive its paymentson the leasedproperty regardlessof how the transactionis disclosed.

(continued)EthicalIssue2

9-108

Financial Accounting 9/e Solutions Manual

b. legal: If we assume that GAAP substitutes for legal requirements, if Gocker is careful to structurethe lease termsso that it avoidsthe requirementsfor a capital lease, thereshouldbe no problemstatingthat the leaseagreementcomplieswith GAAP. c. ethical: The substanceof a capital leaseis one that transfersthe risks and rewards of ownershipto the lessee. If in fact, the substanceof the termsof this leasedo that, the equipmentshouldbe capitalizedby the lesseeregardlessof the formof the lease terms. To use mechanical rules to avoid recognizing assets and liabilities hardly seems like a truthfulwayto do business. Nevertheless,U.S. GAAPpresentlyallowit! 3. Studentresponseswill vary on this question. Somewill say that, if the rules allowit, then why not engineer the transaction in such as way as to benefit Gocker by keeping the asset, and the lease obligation, off the books. After all, this is perfectly legal, and perfectly in accordance with existing U.S. GAAP (FAS 13). In the view of the authors, Gocker should evaluate whether, in fact, she obtains the rights and rewards associated with ownership of the machine. If so, she could so structure the lease that it fits the economic substance of the transaction, which is what should also be disclosed in the financial statements. If it turns out that the equipment and the related lease obligation will have to be addedto assets and liabilities in the balancesheet, thus causingGocker to default on the loan covenant, she should attempt to obtain a waiver of the covenant. This option is going to prove costly for Gocker, so she’s to have to be convinced that she did the right thingin orderto be motivatedto followthis courseof action.

4. The FASBand IASBare workingon a proposednew lease standardthat removesthe mechanicalcriteria for lease capitalizationdiscussedin the chapter in favor of the more theoretically and substantively correct, but also more subjective, “risks and rewards” approach. As a result, more companies will be faced with making the judgment as to whether their lease agreementsactually transfer risks and rewardsto lessees. This will not remove the temptation to deliberately twist the facts. Under a “principles” based standard, there will exist the opportunity for “strategic non-compliance”(that is, simply decide that risks and rewards are not transferred and thus achieve the same result as the “financial engineering” allowed by current GAAP. More judgment requires better ethics. Whatdo you thinkwill happen?(Studentresponseswill vary on this question).
