Granger Paper Co. Case

...Acc 327 Case No. 2 Spring 2012 It is January 20, 2012, and you are the senior auditor in charge of auditing the 2011 year-end financial statements for Granger Paper Company (GPC). GPC is a profitable company that has been in business for many years. It is primarily a manufacturing company that buys wood from timber growers and converts the wood into a variety of paper products. It is a publicly traded company with a reputation as a good corporate citizen. Although GPC has been audited many times in the past by external CPA firms, this is the first year your firm has conducted the audit. GPC’s total revenue for 2011 is $80 million. In examining the revenue for the year, you notice that $3 million of the revenue does not come from GPC’s primary operations (i.e., revenue from sales of paper goods). This $3 million in revenue is labeled as timber revenue in GPC’s books. This strikes you as odd because, generally, GPC buys timber. That is, timber is part of the cost of goods sold for GPC and, as such, is an expense. You ask GPC’s controller, Pat Smith, why GPC is recognizing timber revenue? Pat informs you that GPC began diversifying its operations a few years ago. A natural extension of its business seemed to be growing and selling timber. So, five years ago, GPC bought 10,000 acres of land in Alabama and Mississippi for purposes of growing timber. The land was purchased from a previous timber grower that had recently harvested its timber. Immediately after purchasing...

There are various methods researchers use to perform case studies and each method serves its own purpose. There are advantages and disadvantages of conducting a case study, and various ways to collect the data needed. What is a Case Study A case study is an in-depth analysis of someone’s complete life history where the researcher seeks causes and patterns for behavior. Case studies can be both qualitative and quantitative, depending on the method used to gather information. A case study could also be done on a group, community, or an event. The goal of a case study is to find how one’s case can be a generalization for others, to find common ground per se, and to advance research previously conducted. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to generalize these subjective studies to a large population of people. (Case study as a research method, 1997) Case studies can be both qualitative and quantitative, depending on the method used to gather information. The most known case studies came from Sigmund Freud. He conducted detailed investigations into the lives of his patients, attempting to provide insight to their illnesses and help them overcome the challenges their illnesses brought....

Case Study - International Paper

...Case Study – International Paper Company I. Company Profile and Analyses of Industry International Paper Company (IP) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of paper and paper products. Their products include a wide variety of paper products, consumer packaging materials, industrial packaging materials, and pulp products. In addition, IP collects and recycles recovered paper. History IP began in 1898 as a merger of 17 pulp and paper mills from Massachusetts to New York. IP led the newsprint industry until 1913, when trade regulations revised to promote Canadian imports and later, in 1921, labor conflicts within IP contributed to a decline in IP’s market share. However, IP rallied by creating a Canadian subsidiary, expanding into the South by acquiring and building new mills, consolidating its northern operations, and diversifying its product line from primarily newsprint, to book and bond products, and later, corrugated containers. This diversification aided IP in surviving the Great Depression, and continued through the 1930’s. IP continued to reap profits and expand the company through the 50’s and 60’s, into North American and overseas, eventually expanding into places such as French West Indies, Mexico, and France. The 1970’s found IP divesting itself of several plants and mills, and in 1976, J. Stanford Smith, facilitated a major company reorganization revised the geographic area divisions into business units dedicated to a specific function or product. Over the...
