Q

Ace Co. sold to King Co. a $20,000, 8%, 5‑year note that required five equal annual year-end payments. This note was discounted to yield a 9% rate to King. The present value factors of an ordinary annuity of $1 for five periods are as follows:

8%: 3.993
9%: 3.890
What should be the total interest revenue earned by King on this note?

A.
$9,000

B.
$8,000

C.
$5,560

D.
$5,050

A

The first thing one needs to answer this question is the annual payment needed to pay the note. Because the note yields a higher rate (9%) than it pays (8%), the note should have a discount. Since the note has a stated rate of 8%, the annual payments will be based on the present value of an ordinary annuity based on the 8%: Thus, the annual payment is $20,000 ÷ 3.993, or $5,009 annually.

The present value of the note, however, and thus the initial discount is based on the yield percentage of 9%. Therefore, the note’s initial present value is the payment amount multiplied by 3.89 ($5,009 × 3.89), or $19,485.

The total amount of interest revenue one earns on a note is related to the total payments and also the present value of the note, with a discount recognized here initially, on this note. The total amount to be received on this note is 5 × $5,009, for a total of $25,045.

Interest is generally the amount returned over and above the amount originally recognized, which was the $19,485 originally. Thus, the total interest revenue is $25,045 − $19,485, or $5,560.

Q

comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR)

A

The CAFR financial section. The financial section of the CAFR includes the following:

a. Auditor’s report
b. Management’s discussion and analysis: Required supplementary information that precedes the basic financial statements and in which management introduces those statements and provides an analytical overview of the government’s financial activities.
c. Basic financial statements: The basic financial statements consist of four sets of financial statements (one set of government-wide financial statements and one set of fund financial statements for each of the three categories of funds), as illustrated in Exhibit 6. The government-wide financial statements present data for the governmental activities and business-type activities of the primary government, the primary government in its entirety, and its discretely presented component units. The fund financial statements present data for major governmental funds, for nonmajor governmental funds as a whole, for governmental funds (total), for major enterprise funds, for nonmajor enterprise funds as a whole, for enterprise funds (total), for the internal service fund type, and for each fiduciary fund type.
d. Notes to the financial statements: These are notes to the basic financial statements. Any narrative explanations accompanying the combining statements, individual fund statements, and/or schedules are referred to simply as narrative explanations.
e. Required supplementary information other than Management’s Discussion and Analysis: Certain historical trend information relating to pension plans must be presented after the notes by most governments with single-employer or agent multiple-employer PERS. Likewise, some must include similar information on other postemployment benefit plans. (Recall that governments that choose not to present the budgetary comparison statements for the general fund and major special revenue funds as basic financial statements must include them as required supplementary information.) Finally, if a government uses the modified approach to report infrastructure capital assets, certain required supplementary information related to the modified approach must be presented.
f. Combining statements: by fund type and/or fund category: In which separate columns present individual nonmajor fund data (grouped by fund type) for each nonmajor fund for the governmental fund category—if there are two or more nonmajor governmental funds; for each nonmajor enterprise fund where there are two or more nonmajor enterprise funds; for each individual internal service fund where there are two or more of these funds; or for each individual fiduciary fund for each fiduciary fund type of which there is more than one fund of that given type.
g. Individual fund statements: Where a government has only one nonmajor fund of a particular fund category or, if necessary, to present prior-year or budgetary comparisons not presented in the basic financial statements or required supplementary information.
h. Schedules: May be used to present data in the statements in greater detail, to report cash receipts and disbursements, to present detailed budgetary comparison data, or for other purposes deemed appropriate by management.
