1-17 (Objective 1-3) Busch Corporation has an existing loan in the amount of $6 million

With an annual interest rate of 6.0%. The company provides an internal company prepared

Financial statement to the bank under the loan agreement. Two competing

Banks have offered to replace Busch Corporation’s existing loan agreement with a new

One. United National Bank has offered to loan Busch $6 million at a rate of 5.0% but

Requires Busch to provide financial statements that have been reviewed by a CPA firm.

First City Bank has offered to loan Busch $6 million at a rate of 4.0% but requires Busch to

Provide financial statements that have been audited by a CPA firm. Busch Corporation’s

Controller approached a CPA firm and was given an estimated cost of $35,000 to perform

A review and $60,000 to perform an audit.

 

A. Explain why the interest rate for the loan that requires a review report is lower than

That for the loan that did not require a review. Explain why the interest rate for the loan

That requires an audit report is lower than the interest rate for the other two loans.

 

b. Calculate Busch Corporation’s annual costs under each loan agreement, including

Interest and costs for the CPA firm’s services. Indicate whether Busch should keep its

Existing loan, accept the offer from United National Bank, or accept the offer from

First City Bank.

Review, and the cost of the audit has increased to $80,000 due to new auditing

Standards requirements. Indicate whether Busch should keep its existing loan, accept

The offer from United National Bank, or accept the offer from First City Bank.
