One of the key decisions employers must make is the level of compensation provided to employees. Compensation is a significant cost, and employees are one of the most important assets of the organization. It is important that the organization makes and executes good strategic choices. To facilitate this process, many organizations think systematically about its job structures for compensation and pay levels for different jobs.
An organization's job structure consists of relative pay for different functions and different levels of responsibility. It defines, for example, the difference in pay between entry-level and management jobs, as well as different entry-level jobs in different departments, such as in production or accounting. Pay level is the average amount that an organization pays for a particular job and includes wages, salaries, and bonuses. Job structure and pay levels together form the pay structure, a policy that helps the organization achieve goals related to employee motivation, cost control, and the ability to attract and retain talented employees.
This activity is important because it will help you distinguish between the various factors that impact an organization’s pay structure. The goal of this activity is to classify decisions based on the factors used to establish a pay structure.
HR professionals develop pay structures for their organations based on such factors as legal requirements, company goals, and market forces. Drag each item into the appropriate column on the chart.

ABC, a U.S. company sends by fax an offer to sell to XYZ, a French company, 1,000,000 widgets for $1.00 a widget. XYZ sends back a counter offer of $.75 a widget. ABC rejects the counter offer and sells the widgets to GHK Inc. instead. XYZ then sends an acceptance of the original offer of $1.00. ABC has a contract with XYZ and must give them the 1,000,000 widgets for $1.00 a wideget because they accepted the offer.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is B. False.

Further explanation is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Offer From ABC Company to XYZ Company:

1,000,000 widgets to sell.

Selling Price of 1 widget = $1.00

Total Price = $1,000,000

Counter Offer from XYZ company to ABC Company.

Selling Price = $0.75

Total Price = 0.75 x 1,000,000 = $750,000

But in the end, ABC company sold its widgets to GHK company.

The correct option to this question is false.

This case is false because here ABC sends an original offer of $1 but XYZ sent a counter offer of $0.75. This counter offer was then duly rejected by ABC.

XYZ cannot again confirm and accept the original offer of ABC because they have already rejected your claim and thus XYZ have to wait until ABC make them another offer.

Gonzalez, Inc. has a fiscal year-end of September 30th. On March 1, 2018, Gonzalez authorized $800,000 of bonds payable, with a term of 12 years. The bonds carry a stated interest rate of 6%, with interest to be paid semi-annually on February 28th and August 31st. On August 1, 2019, Gonzalez issued three-quarters of the bonds for cash, at a premium of $25,400.

Required:
Prepare the journal entries that would be required relating to the bonds over period March 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019.

Answers

Answer:

August 1, 2019

Dr. Cash $625,400

Cr. Premium on Bond $25,400

Cr. Bond Payable $600,000

August 31, 2019

Dr. Interest Expense $16,941.67

Dr. Premium on Bond $1,058.33

Cr. Cash __________$18,000

September 30, 2019

Dr. Interest Expense $2,823.61

Dr. Premium on Bond $176.39

Cr. Cash __________$3,000

Explanation:

August 1, 2019

As the Bond was issued on August 1, 2019, So the first entry will be made at the issuance

Issuance of Bond = Total authorized x 3/4 = $800,000 x 3/4 = $600,000

Cash receipt = Face value + Premium on Bond = $600,000 + $25,400 = $625,400

August 31, 2019

As interest is paid on this date.

Interst payment = Face value x Coupon rate = $600,000 x 6% x 6/12 = $18,000

Amortization of Bond Premium ( Straight line ) = Premium on Bond / ( Years to maturity x Coupon payment period per year ) = $25,400 / ( 12 years x 2 periods per year ) = $1,058.33

September 30, 2019

On this date interest of one month is accrued which needs to be recorded.

Interest payable = 600,000 x 6% x 1/12 = $3,000

Amortization of Bond Premium ( Straight line ) = ( 25,400 / 24 ) / 6 = $176.39

You are the General Manager of a US owned plant located in Northern Mexico. The firm manufactures semiconductors and uses temporary employees from the local area to fulfill production labor requirements. Each quarter employees are hired and released depending upon production requirements and needs. The firm has a maximum storage capacity of 1,000,000 semiconductors. Agreements with the Mexican Government require that at least 325 workers must be on the payroll each quarter. There are currently 375 employees on the payroll and 120,000 semiconductors in storage. Sales forecast provided by the marketing department are estimated as follows for the upcoming year:


QUARTER PRODUCTION DAYS PREDICTED SALES FORECAST
First 59 940,000
Second 62 1,215,000
Third 55 860,000
Fourth 58 430,000

Inventory holding cost are $.25 per semiconductor per quarter. The holding cost applies to excess inventory after demand is fulfilled. Thus, assume inventory produced in the quarter to fulfill demand in that quarter is not subjected to holding cost.

The firm would like to have at least 100,000 semiconductors in stock at the end of the year. Each employee produces an average of 30 semiconductors per day. The cost of hiring a new worker is $200, and the cost of releasing a worker is $400. Determine a production plan that minimizes total cost and meets demand forecasts. This production plan must indicate the amount of inventory to produce, store and the amount of workers to hire and release each quarter. Use LP to determine a solution for this problem.

Total cost:

hiring cost: (174 + 23)*200 = 39,400

lay-off cost: (50 + 196) * 400 = 98,400

inventory cost: ending inventory * $0.25 = 73,380

Total cost: $211,180

Explanation:

We solve this using Excel SOLVER which uses linear programming.

First, build a table for workers and production.

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccccccc}\\A&B&C&D&E&F&G\\$quarter&$beg workers&$hired&$lay-off&$total&$working days&$production\\1st&375&&&B + C - D &59&E \times 30 \times F\\2nd&E_1&&&B + C - D&62&E \times 30 \times F\\3rd&E_2&&&B + C - D&62&E \times 30 \times F\\4th&E_3&&&B + C - D&62&E \times 30 \times F\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Then we build a table for inventory:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}\\A&B&C&D&E\\quarter&beginning&production&demand&ending\\1st&120000&&&B+C-D\\2nd&E_1&&&B+C-D\\3rd&E_2&&&B+C-D\\4th&E_3&&&B+C-D\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Last the cell for total cost we want to minimize:

=SUM(hired) x 200 + SUM(lay-off) x 400) + SUM(ending inventory) x 0.25

Our requirement is:

1)ending inventory of 100,000 or more

2) total worker of 325 or above

3) fulfill all demand so ending must be zero or higher than zero

4) hiring and lay-off are Natural numbers (we can't hire 0.5 employees)

Last year Kruse Corp had $440,000 of assets (which is equal to its total invested capital), $403,000 of sales, $28,250 of net income, and a debt-to-total-capital ratio of 39%. The new CFO believes the firm has excessive fixed assets and inventory that could be sold, enabling it to reduce its total assets and total invested capital to $252,500. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Sales, costs, and net income would not be affected, and the firm would maintain the same capital structure (but with less total debt). By how much would the reduction in assets improve the ROE

Answers

Answer:

The reduction in assets would improve the ROE by 7.81%.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Previous equity = (100% - Debt-to-total-capital ratio) * Previous total invested capital = (100% - 39%) * $440,000 = 61% * $440,000 = $268,400

Previous return on equity (ROE) = (Net income / Previous equity) * 100 = ($28,250 / $268,400) * 100 = 10.53%

New equity = (100% - Debt-to-total-capital ratio) * New total invested capital = (100% - 39%) * $252,500 = 61% * $252,500 = $154,025

New ROE = (Net income / New equity) * 100 = ($28,250 / $154,025) * 100 = 18.34%

Change in ROE = New ROE - Previous ROE = 18.34% - 10.53% = 7.81%

Since change in ROE is 7.81% and positive, this implies that the reduction in assets would improve the ROE by 7.81%.

A. Sofaland would be included in the GDP of the US, since the table was made and sold in the US in 2017.

B. The finished tax return by the accountant would not be included in the GDP as production for 2018 as it is not yet finished.

C. The lumber company treetopplers would not be included as part of the GDP since the production of lumber cannot be regarded as final good.

D. Athleticism"s importation from Vietnam to the US is not part of gdp since it is not domestic production.

E. Zippycar made the car in the us and sold in the US same year. This would be included in gdp of US.

Total and unit cost, decision making. Gayle’s Glassworks makes glass flanges for scientific use. Materials cost $1 per flange, and the glass blowers are paid a wage rate of $28 per hour. A glass blower blows 10 flanges per hour. Fixed manufacturing costs for flanges are $28,000 per period. Period (nonmanufacturing) costs associated with flanges are $10,000 per period and are fixed.
1. Graph the fixed, variable, and total manufacturing cost for flanges, using units (number of flanges) on the x-axis.2. Assume Gayle’s Glassworks manufactures and sells 5,000 flanges this period. Its competitor, Flora’s Flasks, sells flanges for $10 each. Can Gayle sell below Flora’s price and still make a profit on the flanges?3. How would your answer to requirement 2 differ if Gayle’s Glassworks made and sold 10,000 flanges this period? Why? What does this indicate about the use of unit cost in decision making?

Answers

Answer:

1. this is a graph. i have added it as an attachment

2. gayles glass work cannot sell below floras flask and still make profit.

3. here gayles glasswork can sell below floras flask and still make profit. unit cost helps in decision making concerning selling price and profit

Explanation:

1. please check the attachment for the graph.  we have number of flanges on the x axis of the graph and costs of manufacturing on the y axis.

2. 10 flanges at $1 + $28/hr

= $38

the variable cost for manufacturing per unit of flange =  38/10 = $3.8

[tex]total cost per flange = (3.8 +\frac{28000}{5000} )+\frac{10000}{5000}[/tex]

= $11.40

so if Gayle's should manufacture and sell 5000 flanges, it would have total cost per flange as 11.40 dollars. while floras flask has 10 dollars per flask. Gayle's glasswork should not sell below 10 dollars as it would not be able to make profit.

3. If gayles glasswork sold and made 10000 flanges this period

[tex]total cost per flange=[3.80+\frac{28000}{10000} ]+\frac{10000}{10000}[/tex]

= $7.60

the selling price of flora flask is = 10 dollars with Gayle's = 7.60 dollars. Gayle's can make profit by keeping selling price less than flora flask. therefore Gayle can make profit by selling below flora flask.

What does this indicate about the use of unit cost in decision making?

we saw how unit cost fell fro 11.40 dollars to 7.6 dollars as fixed and period costs remained unchanged, not withstanding the number of units that was being manufactured. this shows that unit cost plays a great role in decision making concerning selling price, profit as well as feasibility of the product.

Bailey Corporation began business on January 2, 2019, with five employees. Its sick leave and vacation policy follow: Each employee is allowed 8 days of sick leave each year and one day of paid vacation leave for each month worked. The accrued vacation cannot be taken until the employee has been with the company 1 year. The sick leave, if not used accumulates to an 18- day maximum. The vacation leave accumulates for 5 years, but at any time the employee may request compensation in lieu of taking paid vacation leave. The company records its liability for both compensated absences on a quarterly basis. The daily gross wages for each employee are $180. Instructions: 1. Prepare the journal entries to record the compensated absences for the first quarter of 2019. Three sick days were used by employees in the first quarter. 2. Prepare a partial interim balance sheet showing the liability balances for compensated absences at March 31, 2019.

Answers

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Given Data:

Business Began on = 2, January, 2019

Number of employees = 5

Sick leaves and vacation Policy:

Allowed Sick Leaves for each employee = 8 days/year

Paid Leave = 1 day/Month worked

Accrued Vacation condition = Worked for company for at least 1 year

Sick leaves if not used = 18 days accumulated.

Daily Gross Wages = $180 for each employee.

Part 1:

So, we know that,

The company records its liability to compensated absences for both sick leave.

on quarterly basis (5 x 2 = 10 days).

pay per each employ = $180.

The company records its liability to compensated absences for both sick leave.

On quarterly basis = 10 x 180 = $1800.

In a quarter each employee is allowed to avail 3 vacation days, so the total vacations days for 5 employees for a quarter 3 x 5=15 days

gross wage for each employee is $180 per day

for vacation days= 15 x 180= $2700

To record this transaction the journal entry is:

wages expenses             $2700

Accumulated wages        $2700

Part 2:

The partial interim balance compensation for future absences at March 31, 2019

= $1800 + $2700

= $4500.

Veneer Corporation has a competitive advantage in contract manufacturing of small electrical components and expects their competitive advantage to last two years through calendar 2021. The competitive advantage will allow it to increase sales by 20% annually for 2020 and 2021, and, after that, its sales will grow at the same rate as the increase in nominal GDP.

Prepare a proforma income statement, balance sheet, and firm free cash flow for Veneer for 2020 and 2021 (the planning period) using the following assumptions:

Sales are expected to grow by 20% annually.
Cost of goods sold and operating expenses are a constant percent of revenues, interest is 5% of Beginning of Year (BOY) long-term debt plus short-term debt, depreciation is 10% of BOY total fixed assets (gross, not net) and income taxes are 35% of income before tax.
The projected cash balances will change to balance the balance sheet, and the remaining current assets increase in proportion to sales.
Gross fixed assets increase 5% each year.
Accounts payable increases in proportion to sales.
Short-term debt remains the same each year of the planning period. Long-term debt is payable, beginning at the end of the year 2020 and continuing at the end of each year, in equal annual principal payments of $540.
Retained earnings increases by net income and decreases by dividends. The dividend payout ratio is 25%.
During 2021, capital stock with a par value of $1 per share will be sold for $1 per share or a total of $500. There are no other sales of capital stock.

A company owns a 5-year old turret lathe that has a book value of $25,000. The present market value for the lathe is $16,000. The expected decline in market value is $2,000/year to a minimum market value of $4000. maintenance plus operating costs for the lathe equal $4,200/year. A new turret lathe can be purchased for $45,000 and will have an expected life of 8 years. The market value for the turret lathe is expected to equal $45,000(0.70)k at the end of year k. Annual maintenance and operating cost is expected to equal $1,600.

Based on a 12% before-tax MARR, should the old lathe be replaced now? Use an equivalent uniform annual cost comparison, a planning horizon of 7 years, and the cash flow approach.

Answers

Answer:

old lathe should not be replaced now

Explanation:

Using MARR of 12%

Price decline of 2000 per year ; salvage value = (present market value - does cline per year)

Present market value of old lathe = $16000

Opening market value at year end = (16000 * 1.12) = 17920

Add: Maintainace plus operating cost = $4200 / year

Salvage value = 16000 - 2000 = 14000

Annual cost : (Opening market value + operating cost - salvage value)

Annual cost :

Year 1 = (17920 + 4200 - 14000) = 8120

Year 2:

Opening market value at year end = (14000 * 1.12) = 15680

Salvage value = (14000 - 2000) = 12000

Annual cost :

Year 1 = (15680 + 4200 - 12000) = 7880

Year 3:

Opening market value at year end = (12000 * 1.12) = 13440

Salvage value = (12000 - 2000) = 10000

Annual cost :

Year 1 = (13440 + 4200 - 10000) = 7640

Year 4:

Opening market value at year end = (10000 * 1.12) = 11200

Salvage value = (10000 - 2000) = 8000

Annual cost :

Year 1 = (11200 + 4200 - 8000) = 7400

New machine :

Opening market value of year end = (45000 * 1.12) = 50,400

Add : Maintenance plus Operating expense = $1600

Salvage value = 45000 * 0.7 = 31500

Annual cost :

50400 + 1600 - 31500

= 20500

New machine has a far greater annual cost thb the old, hence the old machine should still be used for now.

Answers

Q21) The area that represents government revenue raised by the tax is the sum of B and D, Hence, Option (C) is correct.

The government revenue is the part between what the consumer pays and what the producer gets and in the graph that portion is the B&D

Q22) The amount of dead-weight loss is $16, Hence, option (A) is correct.

To calculate the amount of deadweight loss as a result of the tax, we need to find the triangle that represents the loss of consumer and producer surplus due to the reduction in quantity. The deadweight loss is equal to half the base of the triangle multiplied by the height.

Given that the original equilibrium quantity was 4 and the new quantity after the tax is 2, the reduction in quantity is 4 - 2 = 2.

The base of the triangle is 2 (quantity reduction), and the height can be calculated as the difference between the price consumers faces ($28) and the price producers receive ($12), which is 28 - 12 = 16.

The deadweight loss = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 2 * 16 = 16.

Therefore, the amount of deadweight loss as a result of the tax is $16.

Q23) The area that represents consumer surplus before the tax is the sum of A, B, and C. Hence, Option (C) is correct

Consumer surplus refers to the portion above the equilibrium price or the price and below the demand curve.

Before taxation, this portion is A, B & C.

Thus, Q21) Option (C) is correct, Q22) Option (A) is correct,  Option (C) is correct

Suppose that when the price of gasoline is $3.50 per gallon, the total amount of gasoline purchased in the United States is 6 million barrels per day. Also, suppose that when the price of gas decreases to $3 per gallon, the total amount of gasoline purchased is 8 million barrels per day. Based on these numbers and using the midpoint formula, the price elasticity of demand for gasoline is:

Answers

By definition, the price elasticity of demand for gasoline is -2.33.

Price elasticity of demand

The price elasticity of demand is a measure used to show the responsiveness, or elasticity, of the quantity demanded of a good or service to changes in the price of that good or service.

That is, the price elasticity of demand indicates to what extent changes in price alter the demand for specific products or services.

The price elasticity of demand is calculated by dividing the percentage change in demand by the percentage change in price, resulting in the following expression:

[tex]Elasticity=\frac{percentage change in quantity demanded}{percentage change in price}[/tex]

[tex]Elasticity=\frac{\frac{deltaQ}{Q} }{\frac{deltaP}{P} }[/tex]

where:

deltaQ means the absolute change in quantities demanded.Q represents quantity.deltaP represents the absolute change in price.P represents the price.

Price elasticity of demand for gasoline

Knowing that:

When the price of gasoline is $3.50 per gallon, the total amount of gasoline purchased in the United States is 6 million barrels per day. When the price of gas decreases to $3 per gallon, the total amount of gasoline purchased is 8 million barrels per day.

First, the percentage change in quantities is calculated as follows:

The absolute change in quantities deltaQ is obtained by first subtracting the final demand from the initial demand, that is (8 million – 6 million = 2 million)Now dividing this value by the initial demand, you obtain 2 million÷6 million=0.333, which, taken to a percentage value, finally shows that the percentage change in quantity demanded is 0.333×100%= 33.3%.

Now the percentage change in price is determined as follows:

The absolute change in the deltaP price is obtained by subtracting the final price from the initial price, that is (3 – 3.5= -0.5).Now dividing this value by the initial price -0.5/3.5, we obtain -0.143, which, taken as a percentage value, shows that the percentage variation in the price is -0.143x100%= -14.3%.

Finally, the price elasticity of demand is calculated as:

[tex]Elasticity=\frac{33.3}{-14.3}[/tex]

Solving:

Elasticity= -2.33

In summary, the price elasticity of demand for gasoline is -2.33.

Answers

Answer:

I would say he is the hero with a possible dark side i can't really say cause i haven't watched a lot but he definitely has a lot going on

Explanation:

Answer:

I have mixed feelings

ATTACK ON TITAN SPOILER WARNING

I dont really agree with what he is doing, he used to protect his friends at all costs and dint want Armin and Mikasa to join the scouts because he did not want them to get hurt or die. He tried his best to make sure his friends were safe in seasons 1-3, but now he puts them in harm's way just to succeed with his plan. Sasha has to pay the price of Eren's recklessness, and all of the scouts are starting to doubt Eren. I feel like Eren has lost himself in the process of trying to gain freedom. I still love Eren, but I don't compeletly agree with him. That man just needs a hug. He's tired of this war.
