3.19 INTERPRETING THE STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS. Sunbeam


Corporation manufactures and sells a variety of small household appliances, including toast-
ers, food processors, and waffle grills. Exhibit 3.26 presents a statement of cash flows for
Sunbeam for Year 5, Year 6, and Year 7. After experiencing decreased sales in Year 5, Sunbeam
hired Albert Dunlap in Year 6 to turn the company around. Albert Dunlap, known in the indus-
try as “Chainsaw Al,” had previously directed restructuring efforts at Scott Paper Company. The
restructuring effort at Sunbeam generally involved firing employees and cutting costs aggres-
sively. Most of these restructuring efforts took place during Year 6. The market expected signifi-
cantly improved results in Year 7. Reported sales increased 18.7 percent between Year 6 and
Year 7, and net income improved. However, subsequent revelations showed that almost half of
the sales increase resulted from fraudulent early recognition of revenues in the fourth quarter
of Year 7 that the firm should have recognized in the first quarter of Year 8. Growth in revenues
for Years 5, 6, and 7 was ⫺2.6 percent, ⫺3.2 percent, and 18.7 percent, respectively.
Required
a. Using the information provided and the statement of cash flows for Year 5 in
Exhibit 3.26, identify any signals before the turnaround effort that Sunbeam was
experiencing operating difficulties and was in need of restructuring.
b. Using information in the statement of cash flows for Year 6, identify indicators of the
turnaround efforts and any relations between cash flows that trouble you.
c. Using information in the statement of cash flows for Year 7, indicate any signals that
the firm might have engaged in aggressive revenue recognition and had not yet fixed
its general operating problems.

3.20 INTERPRETING THE STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS. Montgomery


Ward operates a retail department store chain. It filed for bankruptcy during the first
quarter of Year 12. Exhibit 3.27 presents a statement of cash flows for Montgomery Ward
for Year 7 to Year 11. The firm acquired Lechmere, a discount retailer of sporting goods

debt or a common stock issue. Exhibit 3.29 also shows the compound annual rate of
growth in revenues over the three-year period. The eight companies are as follows:
• Biogen creates and manufactures biotechnology drugs. Many drugs are still in the
development phase in this high-growth, relatively young industry. Research and manu-
facturing facilities are capital-intensive, although the research process requires skilled
scientists.
• ChevronTexaco explores, extracts, refines, and markets petroleum products.
Extraction and refining activities are capital-intensive. Petroleum products are in the
mature phase of their product life cycle.
• H. J. Heinz manufactures and markets branded consumer food products. Heinz has
acquired several other branded food products companies in recent years.
• Home Depot sells home improvement products. Home Depot competes in a new retail
category known as “category killer” stores. Such stores offer a wide selection of prod-
ucts in a particular product category (for example, books, pet products, or office prod-
ucts). In recent years, these stores have taken away significant market share from more
diversified department and discount stores.
• Inland Steel manufactures steel products. Although steel plants are capital-intensive,
they also use unionized workers to process iron into steel products. Demand for steel
products follows cyclical trends in the economy. Steel manufacturing in the United
States is in the mature phase of its life cycle.
• Pacific Gas & Electric provides electric and gas utility services. The electric utility indus-
try in the United States has excess capacity. Increased competition from less regulated,
more open markets has forced down prices and led some utilities to reduce their capacity.
• ServiceMaster provides home cleaning and restoration services. ServiceMaster has
recently acquired firms offering cleaning services for health care facilities and has
broadened its home services to include termite protection, garden care, and other ser-
vices. ServiceMaster operates as a partnership. Partnerships do not pay income taxes
on their earnings each year. Instead, partners (owners) include their share of the earnings
of ServiceMaster in their taxable income.
• Sun Microsystems creates, manufactures, and markets computers, primarily to the sci-
entific and engineering markets and to network applications. Sun follows an assembly
strategy in manufacturing computers, outsourcing the components from other firms
worldwide. In recent years, Sun has been rumored to be a takeover target by larger
technology companies, and during January 2010, Oracle Corporation acquired Sun
Microsystems.

SHEETS AND INCOME STATEMENTS. Fuso Pharmaceutical Industries develops,
manufactures, and markets pharmaceutical products in Japan. Its main product is a solution
used by individuals with artificial kidneys. Most individuals in Japan are covered by a
national health insurance system. The Japanese government sets the policies for the propor-
tion of health care costs covered by the government versus the proportion that is the respon-
sibility of the individual. The government also establishes the prices for prescription drugs.
The Japanese economy experienced recessionary conditions in recent years. In response to
