    The owners capitalized and amortized 50% of the purchase price over six years because that is the maximum percentage allowed by the Internal Revenue Code. I would argue that the value of the player roster is somewhat subjective. The players argument, however, is that with experience comes greater value. That is an argument that can be debated.…

    Case Brief

    The plaintiffs, Carol and Gary allege that on September 13, 1998, Carol Allen was injured while participating in a recreational softball game, while she was running to first base. She was hit in the head by the shortstop of the opposing team. This game was an adult and slow pitch softball tournament. The teams that were playing in this tournament were part of the Dover Co-Recreational Softball League, (league) and were sponsored by the Amateur Softball Association Inc. (ASA). The games were played on a softball field that was owned by defendant Martel-Roberge American Legion Post #47 (American Legion). The teams were sponsored by defendant Daniel’s Sports Bar and Grill (Daniel’s) and defendant Thompson Imports (Thompson) who also provided t-shirts for the players. Defendant Bollinger Fowler Company (Bollinger) provided liability insurance for the league, ASA, the American Legion, the Daniel’s team and the Thompson team. The plaintiff was playing for the Daniel’s team, and was using a smaller softball made for women to be able to hit more competitively when playing with men, this was an official rule set forth by the ASA. The defendants did not recommend, require, or provide the use of helmets. The ASA official rules are that there be five men and five women for each team, this game consisted of seven men and three women on each team. When Carol Allen was batting for the first time, she hit a ball towards the shortstop. The male player for the Thompson team threw the ball toward first base in order to get the runner Carol Allen out, but instead the ball struck Carol in the head. This caused her cognitive deficiencies including impaired speech.…

    Court Case Summary

    In December, Republican North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory signed into law a bill that limits Gov. –elect Roy Cooper’s power in making appointments by combining the elections board with the State Ethics Commission.

    Craddock Cup

    After looking at the numbers we decided to eliminate Rivaldo’s salary, we determined that the overhead expense allocations currently in place are not appropriate. The city field rent should be eliminated from the allocated costs as the soccer league will be renting the field regardless of whether or not the Craddock Cup occurs; it is a sunk cost. This also applies to the CYSL office rent and utilities, which will be used by the employees whether or not the tournament is held. We needed to revise the salary allocation, because we do not need to allocate Rivaldo’s salary to the Craddock Cup as it is not relevant. Thus, we only need to account for the $12,000 salary of Renee Jantsen, who works only on the Craddock Cup. Using that allocation method, our profit was $6,502 instead of the previously calculated $3,698 loss.…

    Kansas City Zephyrs Case

    2. Why? The owners capitalized and amortized 50 percent of the purchase price ($12 million) simply because the tax rules allowed it; therefore the depreciation was spread over six years and comes to a total of $2M deduction in income per year. However the players argue that they become more experienced over time, therefore no depreciation is necessary; instead, they argue, given this fact there should be an appreciation of the roster and not the other way around. The truth is that Revenues are influenced by the performance of players as the better the team does, the more fans come. Therefore, player rosters both appreciate and depreciate depending on the season and the overall success of the team including; new recruits, season statistics (wins/losses) etc, therefore it shouldn’t be a consistent depreciation simply because the IRS allows it, but should reflect the actual situation in any given year.…

    Case Study - Make Green Delicious

    The current Collective Bargaining Agreement includes a limited salary cap and entry-level salary cap, and expires September 15th, 2004. It is no longer successful at controlling rapid growth in player salaries and forming a direct link between salary growth and league revenues. The Unified Report of Operations claims that the majority of NHL teams have lost money in recent years. Owners believe that there are “major deficiencies in the current contract that has led to significant financial losses and a competitive imbalance. Smaller teams can’t compete with larger teams; therefore the league can’t be competitive. There is a transition from a local market to a league-wide market, so players’ salaries are escalating to levels that are unsustainable. Entry-level salary caps are ineffective due to signing bonuses. The NHL revenue growth equals 173%, while the players’ salary growth equals 261% over the term of the CBA. The players’ salaries account for 75% of NHL revenues, which is much higher than other sports. Owners believe a mechanism is needed to control player salaries and tie them to revenues. Players question the validity of the financial information, URO, and Levitt Report. Players argue against the proposed solutions and say free market forces should determine players’ salaries. There is no validity in the owners’ financial statements, which may support that the lack of revenues is due…
