For more course tutorials visit www.newtonhelp.com

Accounting Pronouncements. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued accounting pronouncements that affect how accounting transactions should be treated. These pronouncements may affect all companies or just specific industries, but no pronouncements have been issued that affect social media companies, like Zynga and Facebook. In the Forbes article, â&#x20AC;&#x2022;Social Media's Phony Accounting,â&#x20AC;&#x2013; written by Francine McKenna, the author

discusses how these new rules are being invented. Read the article and then: a. Discuss the methods that have been invented and how management estimates can manipulate the resulting income from these transactions. Provide examples to support your opinion. b. Should these invented rules be implemented without authoritative approval? c. Should these new rules be labeled as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)? You must respond to at least two of your classmates’ postings by Day 7 to receive full credit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following annual information is available for each employee group.(Click the icon to view the annual information for each employee group.)

Payroll taxes payable are liabilities that companies incur related to the payment of employee salary and wages. Payroll taxes include: • Social Security taxes • Unemployment taxes • Income taxes withheld Both employers and employees bear the responsibility for payroll taxes. In addition to an employee's salary, an employer is responsible for paying certain taxes, such as unemployment taxes and a portion of Social Security taxes. These payroll taxes are considered part of the company's wage expense in addition to the employee's salary. Employees also pay taxes—such as a portion of Social Security and income taxes—that the employer deducts from their gross wages and remits to the appropriate taxing jurisdictions and agencies. That is, the employer collects the tax for the government agencies imposing the tax and has an obligation to remit the amounts withheld, but does not incur an expense.

Ethics Case 14–8 - Hunt Manufacturing - Debt for equity swaps; have your cake and eat it too ● LO5

The cloudy afternoon mirrored the mood of the conference of division managers. Claude Meyer, assistant to the controller for Hunt Manufacturing, wore one of the gloomy faces that were just emerging from the conference room. ―Wow, I knew it was bad, but not that bad,‖ Claude thought to himself. ―I don’t look forward to sharing those numbers with shareholders.‖

The numbers he discussed with himself were fourth quarter losses which more than offset the profits of the first three quarters. Everyone had known for some time that poor sales forecasts and production

delays had wreaked havoc on the bottom line, but most were caught off guard by the severity of damage.

Later that night he sat alone in his office, scanning and rescanning the preliminary financial statements on his computer monitor. Suddenly his mood brightened. ―This may work,‖ he said aloud, though no one could hear. Fifteen minutes later he congratulated himself, ―Yes!‖

The next day he eagerly explained his plan to Susan Barr, controller of Hunt for the last six years. The plan involved $300 million in convertible bonds issued three years earlier.

Meyer: By swapping stock for the bonds, we can eliminate a substantial liability from the balance sheet, wipe out most of our interest expense, and reduce our loss. In fact, the book value of the bonds is significantly more than the market value of the stock we’d issue. I think we can produce a profit.

Barr: But Claude, our bondholders are not inclined to convert the bonds

Meyer: Right. But, the bonds are callable. As of this year, we can call the bonds at a call premium of 1%. Given the choice of accepting that redemption price or converting to stock, they’ll all convert. We won’t have to pay a cent. And, since no cash will be paid, we won’t pay taxes either.

Required:

Do you perceive an ethical dilemma? What would be the impact of following up on Claude’s plan? Who would benefit? Who would be injured? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ethics Case 15–4 - American Movieplex - Leasehold improvements ● LO3

American Movieplex, a large movie theater chain, leases most of its theater facilities. In conjunction with recent operating leases, the company spent $28 million for seats and carpeting. The question being discussed over break- fast on Wednesday morning was the length of the depreciation period for these leasehold improvements. The company controller, Sarah Keene, was surprised by the suggestion of Larry Person, her new assistant.

Keene: Why 25 years? We’ve never depreciated leasehold improvements for such a long period.

Person: I noticed that in my review of back records. But during our expansion to the Midwest, we don’t need expenses to be any higher than necessary.

Keene: But isn’t that a pretty rosy estimate of these assets’ actual life? Trade publications show an average depreciation period of 12 years.

Required:

1. How would increasing the depreciation period affect American Movieplex’s income?

2. Does revising the estimate pose an ethical dilemma?

3. Who would be affected if Person’s suggestion is followed? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Scow Company declared its quarterly cash dividend on March 31st of the current year. The dividend of $0.30 per share was to be paid on May 1st to the shareholders of record as of April 18th. The company reported 135,000 shares issued with 18,000 shares held in the treasury. Prepare the journal entries required to record the cash dividend for the quarter on the dates of declaration, record, and payment. Dividends represent a return to shareholders on their investment in the corporation. Cash dividends, distributions that firms make to the shareholders in cash, are the most common type of dividend. However, there are other types of dividends, namely stock dividends, property dividends, and liquidating dividends. In this exercise, we are told that Scow declared and paid cash dividends.

E 15-5 The following shareholdersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; equity section was taken from the books of the Kendra Corporation at the beginning of the current year

When a company repurchases its shares, the company can hold these shares in treasury for future use or can retire the shares. Treasury shares are a corporation's own stock that are authorized, issued, and previously outstanding that the corporation buys back. Usually, the corporation intends to reissue treasury shares for some specific purpose. Firms typically record treasury stock in a contra-stockholders' equity account and report treasury stock as a reduction of total stockholders' equity on the balance sheet. Treasury shares reduce the number of shares outstanding, do not have voting rights, and cannot receive cash dividends. However, treasury shares do split and can receive stock dividends in some states. The two methods of accounting for treasury stock are the cost method and the par value method. The cost method records the acquisition of treasury shares at the cost of the repurchased shares. The par value method records the acquisition at the par value of the repurchased shares. The cost method is the most popular method used in practice and will be used in this exercise. Requirement a. Prepare the journal entries required to record each of the following events. Kendra acquired 17,000 shares of common stock to be held in the treasury at a cost of $18 per share. When a firm repurchases shares, it debits the treasury stock account for the cost of the repurchased shares. The repurchase of shares does

not change the common stock account or the additional paid-in capital account. The repurchased shares are still considered issued, but they are no longer outstanding. Determine the cost of the repurchased shares and record the entry now. (Record debits first, then credits. Exclude explanations from any journal entries.)

In 2015, Telcam Inc. discovered an error in its 2012 financial statements. The firm recorded $8,700,000 of depreciation expense on its equipment instead of recording $11,700,000. Telcam has a constant tax rate of 45% and reports three years of comparative income statements and two years of comparative balance sheets with its financial reports. Assume Telcam uses the same depreciation method for tax and financial reporting. Retained earnings and accumulated depreciation as of December 31, 2014, were $12,145,000 and $4,850,000, respectively. Occasionally, companies uncover errors in their financial statements. If the company discovers the error before releasing the financial statements, the correction is straightforward: The company makes the correction prior to release of the financial statements. However, if a company finds an error after releasing the financial statements, it must determine if corrections to past years' financial statements are necessary. In our exercise, a prior-period adjustment is necessary. In order to make a prior-period adjustment a company follows these steps:

Skyline, Inc. reported the following shareholders' equity section as of the beginning of the current year:

During the current year, Skyline engaged in the following transactions affecting the stockholders' equity section of its current balance sheet. Requirement a. Prepare all journal entries required to record the transactions. 1. Issued 350,000 shares of its $1 par value common stock at $27 per share. The underwriter charged a 4% fee for issuing the shares. The stock issue costs are not capitalized. When issuing stock for cash, firms allocate the total proceeds between the par or stated value and the additional paid-in capital (that is, the amount paid in excess of par or stated value). If the shares have no par or stated value, firms record the total proceeds in the common stock account. BE 16-6

On January 1, Brodie Company acquired 30% of the outstanding voting shares of Gravais Corporation at a cost of $1,792,800 by acquiring 24,900 of the total 83,000 outstanding shares at a cost of $72 per share. During the year, Gravais reported $880,000 in net income and declared and paid $6.00 per share dividends. At acquisition, Gravais's market value equaled the book value of its net assets. Prepare the journal entries required to record the above events assuming that Brodie uses the equity method to account for its investment in Gravais. When an investor has significant influence over the investee, but does not have control, companies use the equity method of accounting for

the investment. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the company but not control those policies. An investor is generally presumed to have significant influence at 20% or more ownership, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. Under the equity method, the investor recognizes the increases and decreases in the economic resources of the investee. The investor initially reports the investment account at cost and thereafter reports any events that affect the book value of the investee's stockholder's

Poehling Capital Partners, Ltd. acquired the following equity investments at the beginning of year 1 to be held in a trading portfolio.

Debt securities are investments in the notes or bonds payable issued by another company. A bond, or promissory note, is a form of borrowing by which a company raises capital today in exchange for a contractual obligation to pay bondholders (the lenders) back in the future. Corporations invest in bonds in order to receive periodic interest payments and a final payment of the face value. Firms usually issue bonds with a face value (also referred to as par value) indicating the amount that the issuer will pay the bondholder at maturity. Bonds also typically have a stated interest rate, which determines the amount of interest that bondholders will receive as cash, and a specified maturity date. Bonds can be purchased at their par value, at a discount (a price below par), or at a premium (a price above par). In all cases, bonds are priced such that their yield will be the same as the market rate of interest, which is also called the effective interest rate, for a similar amount of risk. Yield is the actual return that the investors will receive.

Equity securities are an investment in the common or preferred shares of another company. The investor may receive returns in the form of dividends, which are distributions (often cash) that the investee pays to the investor. In addition, the investor could eventually sell the investment for an amount greater than its purchase price and earn a gain on disposal. Accounting for debt and certain equity securities depends on management's reason for purchasing the securities. For all debt securities and equity securities over which a company does not exert significant influence, management classifies the securities into one of three portfolio categories at acquisition

Ethics Case 17–6 - VXI International - 401(k) plan contributions ● LO1

You are in your third year as internal auditor with VXI International, manufacturer of parts and supplies for jet air- craft. VXI began a defined contribution pension plan three years ago. The plan is a socalled 401(k) plan (named after the Tax Code section that specifies the conditions for the favorable tax treatment of these plans) that permits voluntary contributions by employees. Employees’ contributions are matched with one dollar of employer contribution for every two dollars of employee contribution. Approximately $500,000 of contributions is deducted from employee paychecks each month for investment in one of three employer-sponsored mutual funds.

While performing some preliminary audit tests, you happen to notice that employee contributions to these plans usually do not show up on mutual fund statements for up to two months following the end of pay periods from which the deductions are drawn. On further investigation, you discover that when the plan was first begun, contributions were invested within one week of receipt of the funds. When you question the firm’s investment manager about the apparent change in the timing of investments, you are told, ―Last year Mr. Maxwell (the CFO) directed me to initially deposit the contributions in the corporate investment account. At the close of each quarter, we add the employer matching contribution and deposit the combined amount in specific employee mutual funds.‖

Required:

1. What is Mr. Maxwellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apparent motivation for the change in the way contributions are handled?

BE 17-17 Bigger Shoes Company recorded book income of $105,000 in 2014. It does not have any permanent differences and the only temporary difference relates to a $50,000 installment sale that it recorded for book purposes. Bigger Shoes anticipates collecting the installment sales equally over the following two years. The current enacted tax rate is 40%. The substantively enacted tax rates for the following three years are 42%, 45%, and 45%, respectively. What deferred tax amount should Bigger Shoes record for this temporary difference under U.S. GAAP?

BE 17-22 Butler Toy Company uses an acceptable tax method that provided a $26,000 tax deduction for the current year. GAAP and taxable income before considering this tax deduction are equal to $270,000 (i.e., there are no book-tax differences). Butler is subject to a 35% income tax rate. Tax authorities have challenged this type of tax deduction in the past and Butler is now concerned about the realizability of this tax deduction in the future. However, management believes that it is more likely than not that the firm will sustain the tax benefits upon examination by tax authorities. Butler provides the following analysis regarding the probabilities of sustaining the tax deduction: ]

E17-17 Freeman Imported Provisions, Inc. reported pretax accounting income equal to its taxable income, as presented below: All tax changes are enacted into law as of the beginning of the year. All tax rate changes are not known until the year of change. Freeman elects the carryback/ carryforward option for all net operating losses. For the losses noted above, management concluded that it is more likely than not that the benefits of the net operating losses will be fully realizable in the future. Requirement a. Prepare the journal entries necessary to record the tax provisions for years 4 through 8. Begin by preparing the entry, if needed, to record the portion of the year 4 NOL carried back. Under the U.S. tax law, companies with NOLs can elect to carryback or carryforward the tax loss. The carryback allows a company to offset the current tax loss against prior years' taxable income and claim a refund for taxes previously paid on the amount offset. The carryforward permits a company to offset the current tax loss against future taxable income, thereby reducing future taxable income and lowering the amount of tax due in the year of the offset. E17-21 Corker Enterprises provided the following information regarding book-tax differences for its first year of operations: Installment sales are a normal part of Corker's operations and so any deferred taxes related to them would be classified as current. The depreciation expense is related to a building costing $1,500,000. Income before including any of the book-tax differences above is $890,000. The firm expects to fully realize all deferred tax assets, so no allowance account is needed. Corker is subject to a 34% income tax rate. Assume the sales relating to the warranty liability occurred at year end.

Computing income tax expense and income taxes payable is straightforward when book income and taxable income are identical. When book and taxable income are the same, the basis, or carrying values, of assets and liabilities, as well as the income of the entity, are the same for book and tax reporting. That is, the amount a company records as income tax expense will equal the income taxes payable to the government. In this problem, Corker Enterprises has several transactions for which the book and tax treatment differs.

P17-1 Ruthersford Manufacturing uses long-term installment contracts to market its building products. Ruthersford uses the accrual basis for financial reporting and the cash basis for tax purposes. The company also sells several products without offering installment contracts. We present the results of operations for the last five years. Requirements a. Determine the balance of the deferred tax account at the end of each of the five years. b. Prepare the journal entries to record the tax for the five years presented above. Show the effective tax rate for each year. c. How should Ruthersford Manufacturing classify the deferred tax account on the balance sheet? Computing income tax expense and income taxes payable is straightforward when book income and taxable income are identical. When book and taxable income are the same, the basis, or carrying values, of assets and liabilities, as well as the income of the entity, are the same for book and tax reporting. That is, the amount a company records as income tax expense will equal the income taxes payable to the government. When there are differences between book and taxable income, the accounting for these items become more complex. These differences fall into two categories: permanent differences and temporary differences. We will discuss temporary differences in this exercise.

Temporary differences occur when the book treatment and the tax treatment for a given transaction are different in a given year, but will be the same over the life of the firm. Specifically, the tax basis of an asset or liability differs from the book basis of that asset or liability, resulting in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. Temporary differences occur due to events that have been recognized in the financial statements and will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years or events that are taxable or deductible before they will be recognized in the financial statements.

BE18-5 Sting Iron Works signed a lease on January 1 with Jets Bank for an iron-stamping machine. The lease has a 10-year term with no purchase option or transfer of ownership. Under the terms of the contract, Sting must pay $3,800 at the beginning of each year. Jets Bank's implicit rate is 9%. The iron-stamping machine has an economic life of 40 years and a fair value of $43,000. If Sting borrowed at Jets Bank, the loan would have carried an interest rate of 11%. The lessee knows the implicit rate. The present value of the payments due under the lease is $26,582, and the lease agreement is classified as an operating lease. Prepare the journal entries for the lessor and the lessee at the inception of the lease. A lease is a contract that gives the lessee the right to use an asset, legally owned by the lessor, for a specified period of time in return for

periodic payments or rentals made by the lessee. The owner of the asset is called the lessor. The party acquiring the use of the asset is the lessee. The lease contract only conveys the right to use the assetâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it typically does not result in ownership of the asset. This property right has economic value to the lessee and, in substance, represents the purchase of an asset with a corresponding obligation. Determining how to account for a lease depends on the company's evaluation of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred from the lessor to the lessee. A capital lease is a lease that results in the lessee reporting the asset and the liability on the balance sheet and reporting the related interest and depreciation as expenses on the income statement. If the lease agreement does not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, the lease is accounted for as a simple operating lease.

BE18-6 Karras Manufacturing Company leased a piece of machinery for use in its operations from Signage Leasing on January 1. The 14-year, non-cancellable lease requires lease payments of $3,500 due at the beginning of each year. The machinery is estimated to have a 14-year life, is depreciated on the straight-line method, and will have no residual value at the end of the lease term. The present value of the minimum lease payments using 11.2% and the asset's fair value on the date the lease is signed are both equal to $26,889. Signage paid fair value to acquire the equipment. The lessor's implicit rate of 11.2% is known to Karras. Signage has no material uncertainties as to future costs to be incurred and collectability is reasonably assured. Prepare Karras Manufacturing's journal entries at the inception of the lease and at the end of the first year.

Classification of lease agreement as an operating or a capital lease. A capital lease is a lease that results in the lessee reporting the asset and the liability on the balance sheet and reporting the related interest and depreciation as expenses on the income statement. If the lease agreement does not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, the lease is accounted for as a simple operating lease. Under an operating lease, the lessee reports rent expense on the income statement and does not recognize an asset or liability on the balance sheet. Lessees classify leases that meet any one of the four following criteria as a capital lease. Otherwise, the lease is an operating lease.

QUESTION 1 On January 1, 2015, Dillon Manufacturing leased another piece of machinery for use in its North American operations from Evans Bank. The nine-year, non-cancellable lease requires annual lease payments of $16,000, beginning January 1, 2015, and at each December 31 thereafter through 2022.

The lease agreement does not transfer ownership of the machinery, nor does it contain a bargain purchase option. The machinery has a fair value of $99,630 and an estimated life of 10 years. Dillon depreciates its leased equipment using the straight-line method with no residual value. Evans Bank's implicit rate of 11% is known to Dillon. Before completing the requirements, identify the present value of the lease payments. (Use the present value and future value tables, the formula method, a financial calculator, or a spreadsheet for your calculation. If using present and future value tables or the formula method, use factor amounts rounded to five decimal places, X.XXXXX. Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

The present value (PV) of the payments due under the lease is $ 98,338 . Analyze the four criteria to determine whether the lease is an operating or capital lease. Begin by identifying any of the capital lease criteria that Dillon meets. (Select any and all that apply.) 1.The lease transfers ownership of the property to the lessee at the end of the lease term. 2.The lease contains a bargain purchase option. 3.The lease term is greater than or equal to 75% of the estimated economic life of the property. Your answer is correct. 4.The present value of the minimum lease payments is greater than or equal to 90% of the fair market value of the property at the inception of the lease. Your answer is correct. This is a(n)

lease for the lessee (Dillon) because

of the capital criteria is(are) met. Provide the journal entries for Dillon for 2015. (Record debits first, then credits. Exclude explanations from any journal entries. Round amounts to the nearest whole dollar. If no entry is required select "No Entry Required" on the first line of the journal entry table and leave all remaining cells in the table blank.) Begin by preparing the entry for Dillon at the inception of the lease on January 1, 2015. Exclude the first annual lease payment from this entry. We will record that payment in the next step.

Communication Case 18â&#x20AC;&#x201C;10 Should the present two-category distinction between liabilities and equity be retained? Group interaction. â&#x2014;? LO1

The current conceptual distinction between liabilities and equity defines liabilities independently of assets and equity, with equity defined as a residual amount. The present proliferation of financial instruments that combine features of both debt and equity and the difficulty of drawing a distinction have led many to conclude that the present two-category distinction between liabilities and equity should be eliminated. Two opposing viewpoints are:

View 1: The distinction should be maintained.

View 2: The distinction should be eliminated and financial instruments should instead be reported in accordance with the priority of their claims to enterprise assets.

One type of security that often is mentioned in the debate is convertible bonds. Although stock in many ways, such a security also obligates the issuer to transfer assets at a specified price and redemption date. Thus it also has features of debt. In considering this question, focus on conceptual issues regarding the practicable and theoretically appropriate treatment, unconstrained by GAAP.

has begun to mature, though, the fast growth of previous years has begun to slow. In fact, this year revenues and profits are roughly the same as last year.

One morning, nine weeks before the close of the fiscal year, Rob Mashburn, CFO, and Jessica Lane, controller, were sharing coffee and ideas in Lane’s office.

Lane: About the Board meeting Thursday. You may be right. This may be the time to suggest a share buyback program.

Mashburn: To begin this year, you mean?

Lane: Right! I know Barber will be lobbying to use the funds for our European expansion. She’s probably right about the best use of our funds, but we can always issue more notes next year. Right now, we need a quick fix for our EPS numbers.

Mashburn: Our shareholders are accustomed to increases every year.

The options have a fair value of $34 each and cannot be exercised until employees complete a two-year service period. The market price and the exercise price were both equal to

Prepare the journal entry required at the end of the first year after the options are granted. To account for the issuance of an equity-classified award , a company first records the fair value of the award, adjusted for the forfeiture rate , with a debit to deferred compensation (a contra-equity account) and a credit to additional paid-in capital - stock options. Because both of these accounts are equity accounts, there is no net impact on the balance sheet. Rather, this treatment allows for the disclosure of stock option plans. The company then expenses the adjusted fair value of the award on a straight-line basis over the vesting period . When recording the expense, the company also removes the associated deferred compensation. Each year's expense is justified by the fact that the allocation is designed to match compensation expense against increased employee productivity over the vesting period.

This problem will illustrate the accounting for a defined-benefit plan. Three primary accounts are involved in accounting for defined-benefit plans: pension plan assets, pension plan obligations, and pension expense. Companies utilize an account for pension plan assets because the sponsor company invests funds into the pension plan. A defined-benefit pension plan results in a projected benefit obligation liability. Companies report the difference between the pension plan asset account and the projected benefit obligation (PBO) on the balance sheet as either a net pension asset or a net pension liability. This amount is called the funded status of the plan. If the plan assets exceed the PBO, the plan is overfunded; if the plan assets are less than the PBO, the plan is underfunded.

Ethics Case 20–5 Softening the blow ● LO1 LO2 LO3

Late one Thursday afternoon, Joy Martin, a veteran audit manager with a regional CPA firm, was reviewing documents for a long-time client of the firm, AMT Transport. The year-end audit was scheduled to begin Monday.

For three months, the economy had been in a down cycle and the transportation industry was particularly hard hit. As a result, Joy expected AMT’s financial results would not be pleasant news to shareholders. However, what Joy saw in the preliminary statements made her sigh aloud. Results were much worse than she feared.

―Larry (the company president) already is in the doghouse with shareholders,‖ Joy thought to herself. ―When they see these numbers, they’ll hang him out to dry.‖

―I wonder if he’s considered some strategic accounting changes,‖ she thought, after reflecting on the situation. ―The bad news could be softened quite a bit by changing inventory methods from LIFO to FIFO or reconsidering some of the estimates used in other areas.‖

Required:

1. How would the actions contemplated contribute toward ―softening‖ the bad news?

2. Do you perceive an ethical dilemma? What would be the likely impact of following up on Joy’s thoughts? Who would benefit? Who would be injured? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ethics Case 21–7 - Ben Naegle - Where’s the cash? ● LO1 LO3

After graduating near the top of his class, Ben Naegle was hired by the local office of a Big 4 CPA firm in his hometown. Two years later, impressed with his technical skills and experience, Park Electronics, a large regional consumer electronics chain, hired Ben as assistant controller. This was last week. Now Ben’s initial excitement has turned to distress.

The cause of Ben’s distress is the set of financial statements he’s stared at for the last four hours. For some time prior to his recruitment, he had been aware of the long trend of moderate profitability of his new employer. The reports on his desk confirm the slight, but steady, improvements in net income in recent years. The trend he was just now becoming aware of, though, was the decline in cash flows from operations.

Ben had sketched out the following comparison ($ in millions):

Profits? Yes. Increasing profits? Yes. The cause of his distress? The ominous trend in cash flow which is con sistently lower than net income.

Upon closer review, Ben noticed three events in the last two years that, unfortunately, seemed related:

a. Park’s credit policy had been loosened; credit terms were relaxed and payment periods were lengthened.

b. Accounts receivable balances had increased dramatically.

c. Several of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s compensation arrangements, including that of the controller and the company president, were based on reported net income.

Required:

1. What is so ominous about the combination of events Ben sees?

2. What course of action, if any, should Ben take? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
