11%. Calculate JCI’s value of operations for 6/30/2019 and 6/30/2020. (Hint: JCI’s value of operations on 6/30/2020 is

J. Clark Inc. (JCI), a manufacturer and distributer of sports equipment, has grown until it has become a stable, mature company.
Now JCI is planning its first distribution to shareholders. Shown below are the most recent year’s financial statements and
projections for the next year, 2020 (JCI has a fiscal year ending on June 30). JCI plans to liquidate $500 million of its short-term
securities and distribute them on July 1, 2020, the first day of the next fiscal year, but has not yet decided whether to distribute with
dividends or with stock repurchases.
Projected:
Prior to
Distribution
a. Assume first that JCI distributes the $500 million as dividends. Fill in the missing values in the balance sheet
column for July 1, 2020, that is labeled “Distribute as Dividends.” (Hint: Be sure that the balance sheets balance after
you fill in the missing items. Also, assume JCI did not have to establish an account for dividends payable prior to the
distribution.)
b. Now assume that JCI distributes the $500 million through stock repurchases. Fill in the missing values in the
balance sheet column for July 1, 2020, that is labeled “Distribute as Repurchase.” (Hint: Be sure that the balance
sheets balance after you fill in the missing items.)
