Question #1

Immunomedics was alerted that there was some negative buzz about the company in a chat room. The poster used a pseudonym, and therefore the company was unable to identify the poster for lawsuit purposes. The only information the company could ascertain was the poster’s ISP. So the company decided to subpoena the ISP for identity information of the poster in order to file suit against the poster. How should the courts handle these cases, where the company’s complaints may, or may not rise to the level of an actionable legal claim?

Chicago Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Inc. v. Craigslist, 519 F.3d 666 (7th Cir. 2008).

Question #2.

Users of the popular Internet website Craigslist are able to post advertisements for housing that permit statements regarding the preference, limitation, or discrimination of others based on race, religion, sex, or family status. The Fair Housing Act (FHA), however, prohibits making, printing, or publishing a notice, statement, or advertisement for sale or rental of dwellings indicating preference, limitation, or discrimination based on protected classes. As such, the Chicago Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Inc. brought suit against Craigslist alleging a violation of the FHA. In defense, Craigslist claimed that it was immune from liability based on Section 230(c)(1) of the CDA, which protects interactive computer services from liability for unlawful third-party content. Should Craigslist be subject to liability for FHA violations? Why or why not? Cite to appropriate legal principles when explaining your answer.

Master Budget:

You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare a master budget for the upcoming second quarter. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below. 

The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price—$13 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings): 

January (actual)           20,600                                June (budget)                    50,600 

February (actual)         26,600                                July (budget)                      30,600 

March (actual)             40,600                                 August (budget)                 28,600 

April (budget)               65,600                                September (budget)           25,600 

May (budget)             100,600 

The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Mother’s Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month. 

Suppliers are paid $4.30 for a pair of earrings. One-half of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit. Only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible.

Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below: 

Variable: 

Sales commissions            4% of sales 

Fixed: 

Advertising                         $ 230,000 

Rent                                   $   21,000 

Salaries                              $ 112,000 

Utilities                               $     8,500 

Insurance                           $     3,300 

Depreciation                       $   17,000 

Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year. 

The company plans to purchase $17,500 in new equipment during May and $43,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $17,250 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.

The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $53,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month. 

The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $53,000 in cash.

Required: 

Prepare a master budget for the three-month period ending June 30. Include the following detailed schedules: 

1. a. A sales budget, by month and in total. 

    b. A schedule of expected cash collections, by month and in total.  

    c. A merchandise purchases budget in units and in dollars. Show the budget by month and in total. 

    d. A schedule of expected cash disbursements for merchandise purchases, by month and in total. 

2. A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. Determine any borrowing that would be needed to maintain the minimum cash balance of $53,000. 

3. A budgeted income statement for the three-month period ending June 30. Use the contribution        approach. 

4. A budgeted balance sheet as of June 30.
