The income statement and cash flows for each company:

The income statement for both the company is created by using eth direct method. The company Hyde Park shows the bid cost of 60,000 and deducting eth tax results in 21,000 net incomes in 2018, while the Evanston Company is getting mark up of 15% on the bid cost that increases the net income of 24,150.

The cash flows is the distinction in measure of money accessible toward the start of a period (opening balance) and the sum toward the end of that period (closing balance). It is called positive if the end adjust is higher than the opening balance. Income is expanded by (1) offering more merchandise or services, (2) offering a net profit, (3) decreasing costs, (4) expanding the selling price, (5) changes in assets (6) paying slower, (7) acquiring more value, or (8) loan taking.[1]

Along with this, it is observed that the company can bid lowest cost of 53,400 in order to earn the same 11% return and make the competitive advantage by bidding at lowest cost.

Problem 2:

How much goodwill will be added to Hyde Park’s balance sheet as a result of this transaction?

Based on the information given the goodwill will be added as fair value of intellectual property and the additional amount would be added as 60,000 in the assets side and it will increase the assets by 106,534[2].

The company’s intellectual property is now only worth $19,500. 

On the other hand if we assume the fair market value of goodwill is 92,000 and it is declined to 19,500, therefore, it would result in write down of 72,500 in value. And hence it will lead to loss and company’s position cannot be stable.

Problem 3:  Cambridge Interactive Sports Gaming

Provide an estimate of CISG’s 2017 revenue

The revenue is recognized as 35% decrease on previous year’s sales as there is 60% probability that legislation would pass and 40% chance is that legislation would not pass and hence the collective probability results in decline in sales by 35%. And the revenue is resulted as 384,370.

legislation passes 55% decrease in revenue
Legislation do not pass 6% increase in revenue
Probability that legislation passes is 60%
1-p 40%
revenue would decrease by 35%

Provide an estimate of Cambridge’s 2017 EBIT.  Please be sure to footnote and describe any assumptions you make.

The Estimated EBIT results in decrease in the income by 19,733 as compared to 62,020 in 2016 because there has been estimated that legislation will pass and it would decrease the revenue by 35%.
