Introduction
About IPS
Slide show will analyze IPS’s:
Price , cost, and profit analysis
Industry structure, cost, and prices
Optimal production levels for an overall analysis
Q1. Analyze Industry Structure, Cost and Optimal Production
Levels
Price change vs. demand; it remains constant at 50,000 units.
MiniZ is an oligopolistic market:
Few major players in the industry
behaves Strategically
Major policy change from one firm will likely have a countering
impact by remaining firms
Kumar, M. (2016, August 28). Top 9 Characteristics of
Oligopoly Market. Retrieved from
14. http://www.economicsdiscussion.net/oligopoly/top-9-
characeristic-of-oligopoly
Q2. Price Cost, and Profit Analysis
Profit maximizing levels in a competitive and oligopolistic
industry
Marginal cost at this point is equal to the average total cost
Maximum profit occurs when marginal cost equals marginal
revenue
IPS will profit more when:
Marginal revenue rises above the marginal cost
IPS loses money when:
The price goes below the marginal cost
Maximum profit occurs when the goods or services are priced
such that marginal cost, which is the change in the cost of
producing one more unit of good or service is equal to marginal
revenue – the extra revenue created from the sale of an extra
unit of good or service.
15. Q3. Price Cost, and Profit Analysis
As the number of units produced increase, the price of each unit
decreases. The maximum profit is where marginal cost is equal
to marginal revenue.
Maximum profit = $17,500,000.00
Quantity at maximum profit = 22,500 units
Price at maximum profit = $1,100.00
Average total cost at maximum profit = $322.22
Q4. Financial Statements Explained
Balance Sheet (Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity)
Identifies a Firm’s assets at a point in time
Income Statement (Net income = Revenues - Expenses)
Reports a firm's economic activity at a point in time
Statement of Cash Flows - measures cash inflows and outflows
through:
Operations
Investing
Financing
16. Q4. $1.5M Accounts Receivable Write-off
Financial Statements Impacted:
Balance Sheet, Income Statement, and Statement of Cash Flows
Result:
Bad debt expense will increase by 1.5M
Allowance for doubtful account will decrease by $1.5M
Allowance for doubtful account will increase by by $1.5M
Accounts receivable will decrease by 1.5M
Averkamp, Harold, MBA, CPA. (n.d.) How do you write off a
bad account? Accounting coach. Retrieved from
https://www.accountingcoach.com/blog/how-do-you-write-off-
a-bad-account
IPS will have a write-off of an Accounts Receivable amount of
$1.5 million. The company that owed this amount went
bankrupt; therefore, IPS does not expect to retrieve any of the
money owed. This leads to a decrease in the firm's current
assets and the total assets.
This should affect the balance sheet, income statement and cash
flow statement. There will not be an expense or loss recorded
for this on the income statement, as the debt will be written off
17. or adjusted as a bad debt. It will possibly be adjusted as an
income loss and expected that IPS would lose $1.5 million in
projected income. Meanwhile, IPS will take credit for the same
amount of their accounts receivables.
As well, the write-off will be accurately reflected in the
financial statements and could have potential tax savings due to
the loss of expected income. It is widely assumed that a
company as large as IPS should realistically expect to have a
write-off due to the nature of their business.
Q4. Sale of Property, Plant, and Equipment (PPE)
Financial Statements Impacted:
Balance Sheet, Income Statement & Statement of Cash Flow
Results:
Cash should increase by $7.1M
Sell-off of $5M in assets
PPE will fall fall by $5M
Retained earning should increase by $2.1M
Liabilities and owner's equity should increase by $2.1M
Net income should rise by $2.1M
Investing cash flows will increase by $7M
Averkamp, Harold, MBA, CPA. (n.d.) How do you calculate the
gain or loss when an asset is sold? Accounting coach.
Retrieved from https://www.accountingcoach.com/blog/gain-
loss-sale-of-asset
IPS sold a Property, Plant, and Equipment asset valued at $5
18. million for cash, which generated a profit of $2.1 million. The
related financial reports will change and reflect the sale of the
assets. The company gained additional $7.1 to add onto their
cash balance. This should mostly affect the balance sheet, but is
also recorded in the income statement and cash flow.
Meanwhile, the PPE (sale of property, plant, and equipment)
should fall by $5 million due to the sale of the various assets.
IPS also gained $5 million in net income, and that help the
company re-invest their money. Overall, the company will have
additional $7 million for cash flow.
Q4. 10% Discount on Goods Sold
Financial Statements Impacted:
Income Statement and Statement of cashflows
Result:
Cash will increase by 7.2M
Sales discount will increase by 800K
Accounts receivable will decrease by 7.2M
IPS gave a 10 percent discount to a customer. This discount was
not recorded, reducing the revenues of the goods sold to the
customer from $8 million to $7.2 million.
This should affect the overall financial reports in general. IPS
did gain another $7.2 million in cash and should be reflected on
their income statement. However, the discount on the sale will
lead the accounts receivable to be reduced by $800,000 to $7.2
19. million.
Q4. Total Effects of Missing Transactions
Net cash inflows is decreased by $200K
Net Income will decrease by $200K
Cash is increased by $1.3M
Accounts receivable is decreased by $1.5M
Total assets decrease by $200K
Net Income is decreased by 1.5M
Stockholders equity is decreased by 200K
Q4. Conclusion
Firm not financially viable when omitted transactions are
accounted for
Firm's financial position is overstated by 200K
IPS should try to improve its financial status

Q12. What is management's view on the causes of the changes
in financial results?
Intel
$59.4 billion in 2016, up $4.0 billion, or 7%, from 2015 was
attributed to the inclusion of other businesses.
26. Profitability decrease attributed to acquisitions which was
partially offset by lower platform unit costs, platform volume,
and higher platform average selling prices.
Research and development costs have increased
2016 Restructuring Program
AMD
Increase in net revenue from 2015 was attributed to a 9%
increase in Computing & Graphics segment revenue and a 5%
increase in Enterprise.
Decrease in gross margin was attributed to $340 million charge
taken in the third quarter of 2016.
This is the management’s view on the causes of the changes in
financial results. For Intel: we achieved record revenue of $59.4
billion in 2016, which was up $4.0 billion, or 7%, from 2015.
This increase was driven by the inclusion of PSG and growth in
the DCG, CCG, and IOTG businesses. The net income for 2016
was $10.3 billion, and cash flow from operations was $21.8
billion.
The earnings per share of $2.12 were down 21 cents, or 9%
from a year ago. This decrease was primarily driven by higher
restructuring and other charges, higher spending, and higher
amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. The decrease
was partially offset by platform volume and higher platform
average selling prices
Restructuring and other charges came to $1.9 billion, primarily
driven by our 2016 Restructuring Program. We had a record
cash flow from operations in 2016 which was approximately
$21.8 billion. During 2016, we acquired Altera and other
smaller acquisitions for $15.5 billion. We purchased $9.6
billion in capital assets, paid $4.9 billion in dividends, and
repurchased $2.6 billion in stock. We issued $2.8 billion of
27. long-term debt and assumed $1.5 billion as part of the Altera
acquisition.
AMD: had a net revenue for 2016 of $4.3 billion, an increase of
7% compared to 2015 net revenue of $4.0 billion. The increase
in net revenue from 2015 was due to a 9% increase in
Computing and Graphics segment revenue and a 5% increase in
Enterprise, Embedded and Semi-Custom segment revenue.
Revenue increased year-over-year primarily due to higher semi-
custom SoC sales. Operating loss for 2016 was $372 million
compared to a $481 million for 2015. This improvement in
operating performance in 2016 compared to 2015 was due to an
increase in net revenue.
During 2016, we continued to execute our roadmap by
delivering various numbers of new products and technologies
across our two business segments.
