Thunder Bolt Inc., is a manufacturer of the very popular G36 motorcycles. The management at Thunder Bolt has recently adopted absorption costing and is debating which denominator-level concept to use. The G36 motorcycles sell for an average price of $8,200. Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead costs for 2012 are estimated at $6,480,000. Thunder Bolt Inc., uses subassembly operators that provide component parts. The following are the denominator-level options that management has been considering:a. Theoretical capacity--based on three shifts, completion of five motorcycles per shift, and a 360-day year--3 x 5 x 360 = 5,400.b. Practical capacity--theoretical capacity adjusted for unavoidable interruptions, breakdowns, and so forth--3 x 4 x 320 = 3,840.c. Normal capacity utilization--estimated at 3,240 units.d. Master-budget capacity utilization--the strengthening stock market and the growing popularity of motorcycles have prompted the marketing department to issue an estimate for 2012 of 3,600 units.Required:1. Calculate the budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead cost rates under the four denominator-level concepts.2. What are the benefits to Thunder Bolt, Inc., of using either theoretical capacity or practical capacity?3. Under a cost-based pricing system, what are the negative aspects of a master-budget denominator level? What are the positive aspects?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Ans1. budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead costs rates:

denominator, level capacity concept budgeted fixed manufacturing overhaed per period budgeted capacity level budgeted fixed manufacturig overhead cost rate ;

theoritical= $6,480,000 5,400$1,200.00

practical 6,48,000 3,840 1,687.50

normal 6,480,000 3240 2,000.00

master - budget 6,480,000 3,600 1,800

The rates are different because of varying denominator- level concepts. theoriitical and practical capacity levels are driven by supply-side concepts,i.e," how much can I produce?" Normal and master budgete capacity levels are driven by demand- side concepts, i.e ," how much can I sell"/

Ans 2 :- The variance that arise from use of the theoritical or practical levels concepts will signal that there is a divergence between for capacity. this is useful input to managers. As a general rule, however , it is important not to place undue reliance on the production volume variance as a measure of the economic costs of unused capacity.

Ans 3:- Under a cost - based pricing system, the choice of a master - budget level deniminator will lead to high prices when demand is low (more fixed costs allocated to the individual product level), further eroding demand ; conversely ,it will lead to low prices when demand ; conversely , it will lead to low prices when demand is high, forgoig profits. This has been refered to as the downward demand spiral- the continuing reduction in demand that occurs when the prices of the competitors are not met and demand drops , resulting in even higher unit costs and even more reluctance to meet the prices of competitors. The positive aspects of the master - budget denominator level are that it is based on demand for the product and indicates the price at which all costs per unit would be recovered to enable teh company to make a profit.Master budget denominator level is also a good bench mark against which to evaluate performance.

Suppose the Fed raises the required reserve ratio, a move that is normally thought to reduce the money supply. However, banks find themselves with a reserve deficiency after the required reserve ratio is increased and are likely to react by requesting a loan from the Fed.
Does this action prevent the money supply from contracting as predicted? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

It hinders or prevents the money supply from contracting as much and as fast as it would have contracted if the banks had not gone to the Fed for loans.  moreover, it is only a short-run phenomenon. Once the banks repay the Fed loans (probably within the next two to four weeks), reserves will leave the banking system, and the money supply will decline as predicted. The loans the Fed makes to banks create a lag between the increase in the required reserve ratio and the full contractionary effect on bank reserves and the money supply.

Explanation:

Stubs-R-Us is a local event ticket broker. Last year, the company sold 750,000 tickets with an average commission of $10. Because of the general economic climate, Stubs expects ticket volume to decline by 20 percent. In addition, employees at a local insurance company headquarters accounted for 8 percent of Stubs’ volume. The headquarters relocated to another state and all the employees closed their accounts.
Offsetting these factors is the observation that the average commission per sale is likely to increase by 13 percent because the average ticket prices are expected to be larger in the coming year.
Required:
Estimate commission revenues for Stubs-R-Us for the coming year.

Answers

Answer:

$6,237,600

Explanation:

The computation of Estimate commission revenues is shown below:-

In the Coming year the market volume = 100% - 20%

= 80%

In the Coming year the number of sales = 100% - 8%

= 92%

In the coming year the Average commission per trade = 100% + 13%

= 113%

Commission revenue = Sold tickets × Average commission × In the Coming year the market volume × In the Coming year the number of sales × In the coming year the Average commission per trade

= 750,000 × $10 × 0.80 × 0.92 × 1.13

= $6,237,600

We applied the same formula to find out the commission revenue earned by the company

Which of the following statements is (are) true regarding product costing?

(A) Individual product costs are relevant for managerial decision-making but irrelevant for preparing the financial statements.
(B) A common decision facing managers is determining the price at which to sell their products or provide their services.

Answers

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Option B is correct because when a firm produces or manufactures the product then various types of costs are associated with that product like variable costs, fixed costs, etc. Profit is the main motive of every firm so the manager decides the price of the commodity in such a way that it can compete in the market and generate revenue for the firm. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the manager to look after the pricing strategy at which the product has to sell.

The production head at the Omnitone Paint Company would frequently stay back after office hours and experiment with new color combinations even though this was part of the new product development team's job. As a result of these experiments, he came up with two new interior paint colors, foggy morning and mint julep. The new colors proved popular among test groups, and quickly became some of Omnitone's best-selling products. Which of the following strategies does this scenario best illustrate?
A) intended strategy
B) emergent strategy
C) unrealized strategy
D) tactical strategy

Answers

Answer: Emergent Strategy

Explanation:

An emergent strategy is an approach to take action not stated or planned in the initial stage but  emerges and develops  with time in an organization during an ongoing project  as the organisation changes and advances.

This realized strategy helps to  identify  unforeseen  circumstances that arises during implementation of task and therefore the organisation will have to incorporate the result from   new  strategy which will be beneficial in the long run especially for future purposes.

Here in Omnitone organisation, the coming up with new colors during experimenting with colors which became popular  showed implementation of  emergent strategy.

or False: The following statement accurately describes how firms make decisions related to issuing new common stock. Taking flotation costs into account will reduce the cost of new common stock. True: Taking flotation costs into account will reduce the cost of new common stock, because you will multiply the cost of new common stock by 1 minus the flotation cost—similar to how the after-tax cost of debt is calculated. False: Flotation costs are additional costs associated with raising new common stock.

Answers

Answer: False: Flotation costs are additional costs associated with raising new common stock.

Explanation:

Floatation costs are indeed an expense associated with issuing new stock which consist of expenses such as legal and underwriting fees.

They increase the cost of common stock because they are taken from common stock. They cannot be compared to debt because debt is an expense so tax reducing it reduces our cost but when the floatation costs are removed from stock, we get less.

Fill in the new values that will appear in the balance sheet immediately after the loan is finalized.ACME Bank Balance Sheet 2Assets Liabilities and net worthReserves ???? Checkable deposits ????Loans ???? Stock shares ????Property ????

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

As the loan has not been used yet, it will stay in the Loan account of the bank. The balances on the books for ACME will therefore be,

Reserves - $151,000.

It does not change as loan has not been used yet. If Toshi was to use loan then this figure will reduce because withdrawals are given from the Bank reserves.

Checkable Deposits will increase by the loan amount as that was where Toshi was credited to.

= 140,000 + 28,000

= $168,000

Loans - $28,000

The bank will now have a loan balance of $28,000 on its debit side to reflect the loan it just gave out.

Stock Shares - $286,000.

Not affected by the transaction.

Property - $275,000

Not affected by the transaction.

Immediately after Toshi's loan is finalized, the Balance Sheet of ACME Bank will look like this:

Saddle Inc. has two types of handbags: standard and custom. The controller has decided to use a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs. The president has heard of activity-based costing and wants to see how the results would differ if this system were used. Two activity cost pools were developed: machining and machine setup. Presented below is information related to the company’s operations. Standard Custom Direct labor costs $60,000 $103,000 Machine hours 1,400 1,290 Setup hours 96 400 Total estimated overhead costs are $300,000. Overhead cost allocated to the machining activity cost pool is $195,000, and $105,000 is allocated to the machine setup activity cost pool.Compute the overhead rate using the traditional (plantwide) approach.

Answers

Answer:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $1.84 per direct labor dollar

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total Direct labor costs= 60,000 + 103,000= $163,000

Total estimated overhead costs are $300,000.

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 300,000/163,000

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $1.84 per direct labor dollar

Working Note

a. Direct materials used = Total manufacturing costs - Manufacturing overhead applied - Direct labor

= $150,150 - ($56,000 + $44,800)

= $150,150 - $100,800

= $49,350

b. Works in process 1/1/20 = Total cost of works in process - Total manufacturing costs

= $205,900 - $150,150

= $55,750

c. Works in process 12/31/20   = Total cost of works in process - Cost of goods manufactured

= $205,900 - $194,300

= $11,600

d. Manufacturing overhead applied = $44,800 ÷ $56,000

= 80%

For case B the manufacturing overhead applied = 80% × $146,100

= $116,880

e. Total manufacturing costs = Direct materials used + Direct Labor + Manufacturing overhead applied

= $93,400 + $146,100 + $116,880

= $356,380

f. Total cost of work in process = Total manufacturing costs + Works in process 1/1/20

= $356,380 + $16,800

= $373,180

g.  Cost of goods manufactured = Total cost of work in process - Works in process 31/12/20

= $373,180 - $15,400

= $357,780

Therefore to reach the missing amounts we simply use the working notes.

The value of the direct material used is $49,350.

Based on the information given, the values for each question will be calculated below:

The direct materials used will be:

= Total manufacturing costs - Manufacturing overhead applied - Direct labor

= $150,150 - ($56,000 + $44,800)

= $150,150 - $100,800

= $49,350

The works in process 1/1/20 will be:

= Total cost of works in process - Total manufacturing costs

= $205,900 - $150,150

= $55,750

The value of the works in process 12/31/20 will be:

= Total cost of works in process - Cost of goods manufactured

= $205,900 - $194,300 = $11,600

The value of the manufacturing overhead applied will be:

= $44,800 / $56,000 = 80%

For case B the manufacturing overhead applied will be calculated as:

= 80% × $146,100

= 0.8 × $146100

= $116,880

The total manufacturing costs will be:

= Direct materials used + Direct Labor + Manufacturing overhead applied

= $93,400 + $146,100 + $116,880 = $356,380

The total cost of work in process will be:

= Total manufacturing costs + Works in process 1/1/20

= $356,380 + $16,800 = $373,180

The cost of goods manufactured will be:

= Total cost of work in process - Works in process 31/12/20

= $373,180 - $15,400 = $357,780

Answers

Answer:

d. None of the answers is correct

$17,000 increase

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution is provided below:-

For reaching the change in income if the special order is accepted we need to follow some steps which are as follows:-

Step 1

Variable manufacturing cost per unit = Variable manufacturing costs ÷ Sale units

= $240,000 ÷ 24,000

= $10

Step 2

Cost related with special order = Number of units × Variable manufacturing cost per unit

= 3,400 × $10

= $34,000

Step 3

Income from special order = Number of units × Selling price

= 3,400 × $15

= $51,000

Therefore the Change in income if special order is accepted = Income from special order- Cost related with special order

= $51,000 - $34,000

= $17,000 increase

d. None of the answers is correct the right answer is $17,000 increase.

To reach the change in income if special order is accepted we simply put the values into formula.

Assume that students graduate in 4 years, and the money is paid at the beginning of each year with the first award at the beginning of Year 1. The interest rate is 10%.

Required:
a. Determine the equivalent uniform annual cos (EUAC) of providing the scholarship.
b. How much money must LaQuesha donate?

Answers

Answer:

A)  EUAC = 38625.09 / 3.4869 = 11077.354

B) $83225.79

Explanation:

A ) Determining the EUAC  of providing the scholarship

EUAC = sum of present values / sum of present value factors

present value is calculated as ( p ) =  year * present value factor

the present value factor for the various(4) years are : ( 1.000, 0.9091,0.8264,0.7513 ) = 3.4869

present value for the 4 years =( $10000 , $9,090.91, 8264.46, 11269.72 )

total = $38625.09

therefore EUAC = 38625.09 / 3.4869 = 11077.354

B ) THE MONEY LAQUESHA MUST DONATE

interest rate for perpetuity = 1.10 ^4 - 1

                                             = 1.4641 -1 =  0.4641

therefore amount to be donated = total present value / interest rate for perpetuity    

= 38625.09 / 0.4641  = $83225.79

Concord Company, a machinery dealer, leased manufacturing equipment to Mays Corporation on January 1, 2017. The lease is for a 7-year period and requires equal annual payments of $26,143 at the beginning of each year. The first payment is received on January 1, 2017.
Concord had purchased the machine during 2016 for $75,000. Collectibility of lease payments is reasonably predictable, and no important uncertainties surround the amount of costs yet to be incurred by Concord. Concord set the annual rental to ensure an 8% rate of return.
The machine has an economic life of 8 years with no residual value and reverts to Concord at the termination of the lease.
Required:
1. Compute the amount of the lease receivable. (Round present value factor calculations to 5 decimal places, e.g. 1.25124 and the final answer to 0 decimal places e.g. 58,971.)
2. Prepare all necessary journal entries for Headland for 2017. (Round answers to decimal places e.g. 5,125.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. The computation of lease receivable is shown below:-

Amount of Lease Receivable = Present value amount i.e calculated by using the present value formula shown in the spreadsheet

Given that

Rate = 8%

NPER = 7 years

PMT = $26,143

FV = $0

The formula is

= -PV(RATE;NPER;PMT;FV;TYPE)

After applying this above formula, the present value is $146,998.94

2. Now The Journal entry is shown below:-

a. Lease Receivable A/c Dr,  $146,998.94

   Cost of Goods Sold  Dr, $75,000

                To Inventory A/c  $75,000

                To Sales  $146,998.94

(Being lease receivable is recorded)

Here we debited the lease receivables and cost of goods sold as it increased the assets and expenses  and we credited the inventory and sales as  it reduced the assets and increased the revenues

b. Cash A/c Dr, $26,143

                To Lease receivable A/c $26,143

(Being the first payment of lease is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the sales and credited the lease receivables as it decreased the assets

c. Interest Receivable A/c Dr, $9,668.432   {($146,998.4 - $26,143) × 8%}

              To Interest Income A/c $9,668.432

(Being accrued interest is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the sales and credited the interest income and it increased the revenue

Ahnberg Corporation had 740,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at January 1. No common shares were issued during the year, but on January 1, Ahnberg issued 360,000 shares of convertible preferred stock. The preferred shares are convertible into 720,000 shares of common stock. During the year Ahnberg paid $216,000 cash dividends on the preferred stock. Net income was $2,806,000.What were Ahnberg's basic and diluted earnings per share for the year?

Answers

Answer:

Diluted EPS 1.92

Explanation:

Ahnberg Corporation

1

Net income 2,806,000

Less: Preferred Dividends 216,000

Net income for Common Stockholders 2,590,000

Divide by Common shares outstanding 740,000

Basic EPS 3.5

2

Net income 2,806,000

Divide by Common shares deemed outstanding 1,460,000

(740,000+720,000)

Diluted EPS 1.92

Therefore Ahnberg's basic and diluted earnings per share for the year will be 1.92

Answer:

Basic earnings per share is $3.50 and for the year and diluted earnings per share is $1.92

Explanation:

In order to calculate the basic earnings per share for the year we would have to use the following formula:

Basic EPS=(Net Income - preferred dividends)/Weighted average shares outstanding

Basic EPS=($2,806,000-$216,000)/740,000

Basic EPS=$3.50  per share

Diluted EPS=Total Income-preferred dividends/(outstanding shares+Diluted Shares)

Diluted EPS=$2,806,000/(740,000+720,000)

Diluted EPS=$1.92 per share

Innova uses 1,000 units of the component IMC2 every month to manufacture one of its products. The unit costs incurred to manufacture the component are as follows. Direct materials $61.48 Direct labor 37.19 Overhead 126.50 Total $225.17 Overhead costs include variable material handling costs of $7.16, which are applied to products on the basis of direct material costs. The remainder of the overhead costs are applied on the basis of direct labor dollars and consist of 60% variable costs and 40% fixed costs. A vendor has offered to supply the IMC2 component at a price of $230 per unit. (a) Prepare the incremental analysis for the decision to make or buy IMC2. Make IMC2 (per unit) Buy IMC2 (per unit) Net Income Increase (Decrease) Direct material $ $ $ Direct labor Material handling Variable overhead Purchase price Total unit cost $ $ $ Should Innova purchase the component from the outside vendor if Innova’s capacity remains idle?

Answers

Answer:

Innova

a) Make or Buy IMC2 Incremental Analysis:

Make IMCs (per unit)

Direct material         $61.48

Direct labor                37.19

Material handling        7.16

Variable overhead    71.60

Total unit cost          177.43

Buy IMC2 (per unit)

Purchase price          $230

Net Income will decrease by ($52.57) if IMC2 is bought.

b) Innova should not purchase the component.  It costs more to buy IMC2 than to make it based on incremental analysis.

Explanation:

a) Incremental Analysis is a decision-making technique used in business to determine the true cost difference between alternatives.  It is also called the relevant cost approach, marginal analysis, or differential analysis.  Using incremental analysis, sunk cost or past cost is disregarded as irrelevant.  The fixed cost element equalling $47.74 per unit is a sunk cost that is not relevant for incremental analysis.

b) In a make or buy decision, the company considers if internalization of production will be of greater economic benefits than outsourcing.

c) Variable overhead is calculated as ($126.50 - $7.16) x 60% = $71.60

Byrd Company produces one product, a putter called GO-Putter. Byrd uses a standard cost system and determines that it should take one hour of direct labor to produce one GO-Putter. The normal production capacity for this putter is 120,000 units per year. The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $1,080,000 comprised of $420,000 of variable costs and $660,000 of fixed costs. Byrd applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours.

During the current year, Byrd produced 74,000 putters, worked 98,300 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $133,200 and fixed overhead costs of $612,000.

Required:
a. Compute the predetermined variable overhead rate and the predetermined fixed overhead rate.
b. Compute the applied overhead for Byrd for the year.
c. Compute the total overhead variance.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard= 1 direct labor hour per unit

The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $1,080,000 comprised of $420,000 of variable costs and $660,000 of fixed costs.

During the current year, Byrd produced 74,000 putters, worked 98,300 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $133,200 and fixed overhead costs of $612,000.

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (420,000 + 660,000)/120,000

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $9 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 9*98,300= $884,700

Finally, the total overhead variance:

Overhead variance= real overhead - allocated overhead

Overhead variance= 745,200 - 884,700

Overhead variance= 139,500 favorable

In the summer of​ 2008, at Heathrow airport in​ London, Bestofthebest​ (BB), a private​ company, offered a lottery to win a Ferrari or 90,000 British​ pounds, equivalent at the time to about $180,000. Both the Ferrari and the​ money, in 100 pound​ notes, were on display. If the U.K. interest rate was 5% per​ year, and the dollar interest rate was 2% per year​ (EARs), how much did it cost the company in dollars each month to keep the cash on​ display? That​ is, what was the opportunity cost of keeping it on display rather than in a bank​ account? (Ignore​ taxes.)

Answers

Answer:

The cost for the company is 375 pounds.

Explanation:

In order to calculate how much did it cost the company in dollars each month to keep the cash on​ display we would have to make the following calculations:

Current exchanage rate between Pound and dollar = $180,000 / 90,000 pound

= $2 per pound.

Total amount in Display = $180,000

Interest rate in USA = 2%

Monthly cost = $180,000 × 2% / 12

= $3300

Monthly  opportunity cost of keeping it on display rather than in a bank​ account is $300.

Monthly Cost in term of pound = 90,000 × 5% / 12

= 375 Pound.

Monthly cost in term of pound is 375 pound.

A.
cost of goods sold 10,750
merchandise inventory 10,750
B.
merchandise inventory 10,750
cost of goods sold 10,750
C.
cost of goods sold 10,000
sales revenue 10,000
D.
cost of goods sold 10,000
merchandise inventory 10,000

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is A:

cost of goods sold        10,750

merchandise inventory                 10,750

Explanation:

When goods are bought for resale,the total cost of the goods bought is usually the invoice price paid as well as the cost of bringing in the goods i.e freight,hence the cost of the goods sold here is the invoice price of $10,000 plus the freight of $750,giving total cost of $10,750

When the goods are sold,merchandise inventory would be credited with $10,750 while cost of goods sold is debited with same amount.

The correct option is first one with cost of goods sold debited with $10.750 and merchandise inventory credited for $10,750

Answer: Please see in explanation column

Explanation:

Budgeted Conversion Cost   $ 180,000      

Total Production hours = 1,000 hours      

Conversion cost per production hour = 180,000/1,000  = $ 180 per hour  

Production time per unit produce = 20 minutes    

Conversion cost per unit -- first mins change to hrs

60min = 1 hour

20 min= 20/60=0.33hr

$ 180 x 0.333333 = $ 59.999per unit  

Material cost per unit = $ 30 per unit      

Total cost per unit production =

Material cost per unit+ conversion cost per unit = 30+ 59.999= $ 89.999per unit

a)Material Required per unit = $30 per unit      

Material purchase for 500 units =30 x 500 = $15,000    

b)Conversion cost per unit produce = $ 59.999 per unit    

number of units for conversion= 600

Conversion Cost applied for 600 units =( 600 x 59.999 = $35,999.4  rounded to $36,000

Total cost of goods complete per unit = $ 89.999 per unit    

Number of units completed = 450 units

Total Cost of Goods completed =  450  x 89.999= $ 40,499.55    =$40,500

Thrifty Co. reported net income of $573,650 for its fiscal year ended January 31, 2020. At the beginning of that fiscal year, 100,000 shares of common stock were outstanding. On October 31, 2019, an additional 30,000 shares were issued. No other changes in common shares outstanding occurred during the year. Also during the year, the company paid the annual dividend on the 40,000 shares of 6%, $50 par value preferred stock that were outstanding the entire year.
Required:
a. Calculate basic earnings per share of common stock for year ended January 31, 2020.
b. If Thrifty Co.’s preferred stock were convertible into common stock, what additional calculation would be required?

Answers

Answer:

a. The basic earnings per share of common stock for year ended January 31, 2020 is $3.56 per share

b. If Thrifty Co.’s preferred stock were convertible into common stock, it would be required to calculate Dluted EPS.

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the BEPS we would have to use the following formula:

BEPS = Net income available to common stockholders / Weighted Avg. no. of common stock

Net income available to common stockholders=$573,650

Weighted Avg. no. of common stock = 100,000 + (30,000 x 3/12)

Weighted Avg. no. of common stock = 107,500

BEPS = Net income available to common stockholders / Weighted Avg. no. of common stock

BEPS = $573,650 / 107,500

BEPS= $3.56 per share

b. If Thrifty Co.’s preferred stock were convertible into common stock, it would be required to calculate Dluted EPS.

Large-scale integrated (LSI) circuit chips are made in one department of an electronics firm. These chips are incorporated into analog devices that are then encased in epoxy. The yield is not particularly good for LSI manufacture, so the AQL specified by that department is 20% while the LTPD acceptable by the assembly department is 52%. Assume the company is willing to accept a consumer's risk of 10 percent and a producer's risk of 5 percent.
A. Find the sample size.
B. How would you tell someone to do the test?

Answers

Answer:

A) sample size = 23.475 ≈ 23

B) How to tell someone to do the test is by taking a sampling process of a lot of the products because this will help to figure out defective units in the line of production and also ensure that the quality of the products are up to the same quality required

Explanation:

Data given

AQL = 20%, = 0.2

LTPD = 52% = 0.52

Assuming consumer risk acceptable by company = 10%

producer risk = 5%

A) First we calculate the ratio

= LTPD / AQL = 0.52 / 0.2  = 2.6

from the table of LTPD/AQL   2.6 is closest to 2.768

to calculate the sample size we apply the formula from the exhibit table

n ( AQL ) = 4.695

Therefore n ( sample size ) = 4.695 / 0.2 = 23.475

B) How to tell someone to do the test is by taking a sampling process of a lot of the products because this will help to figure out defective units in the line of production and also ensure that the quality of the products are up to the same quality required

The art appreciation society operates a museum for the benefit and enjoyment of the community. During hours when the museum is open to the public, two clerks who are positioned at the entrance collect a $5.00 admission fee from each nonmember patron. Members of the Art Appreciation Society are permitted to enter free of charge upon presentation of their membership cards. At the end of the day, one of the clerks delivers the proceeds to the treasurer. The treasurer counts the cash in the presence of the clerk and places it in a safe. Each Friday afternoon the treasurer and one of the clerks deliver all cash held in the safe to the bank, and receive an authenticated deposit slip which provides the basis for the weekly entry in the cash receipts journal.The Board of Directors of the Art Appreciation Society has identified a need to improve their control procedures for cash admission fees. The board has determined that the cost of installing turnstiles, sales booths, or otherwise altering the physical layout of the museum will greatly exceed any benefits which may be derived. However, the board has agreed that the sale of admission tickets must be an integral part of its improvement efforts.Required: Identify three internal control weaknesses and suggest a solution for each. Be as specific as possible.

Answers

Answer:

1)

Deficiency:

There is no method for determining the exact number of members of the Art Appreciation Society that actually enter the museum every day. The person that allows them to enter is the same person that charges the entrance fee.  

Recommendation:  

Since there are two clerks, one should deal with paying patrons and the other one should be in charge of allowing non paying members of the Art Appreciation Society to enter the museum.

2)

Deficiency:

There is no method that controls and documents the number of paying visitors.

Recommendation:

The simplest and cheapest way to solve this issue is to issue prenumbered tickets to paying visitors.

3)

Deficiency:

There is a chance that the same clerk delivers the cash to the treasurer and goes to the bank to make the deposit. if this happens, there would be no control over the daily proceeds and the money deposited.

Recommendation:

One of the clerks should be in charge of delivering the daily proceeds to the treasurer, and the other one should be in charge of going to the bank with the treasurer. Probably the best alternative would be that the clerks change tasks every week, e.g. one week clerk 1 delivers the cash to the treasurer, next week clerk 2 should do it.

Weaknesses in the collecting and recommendation systems.

Weaknesses:

One problem is that the gathered amount should not be deposited by the Treasurer and Clerk since they are collecting and retaining the money for a long time before depositing it.

Recommendation:

A different individual should be selected to deposit this amount on a regular basis, as involving more people reduces the chance of fraud and ensures a flawless internal control system.
