Question:

Huang Industries, Ltd. (HIL) is based in Singapore and manufactures tools used in Asian auto factories. Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) purchased $60 million worth of tools from HIL in a single order that was delivered on June 30, the last day of HIL’s second fiscal quarter.

Part A. Assume that HIL’s gross margin percentage is always 30 percent. 

Required: How much pretax profit should HIL recognize on the sale in the second fiscal quarter? 

Part B. Assume SAIC returned 9 percent of the shipment on September 12. It did not return any additional product before the right of return expired.
