You are a valuable member of the student store staff. You handle many of the cash box transactions, moving the daily cash betwee

n the store and the office, where it is held overnight. You remember that you needed to have cash to reserve your spot on the senior trip today, and your wallet is empty. You have the money at home, but forgot to pick it up this morning. You can’t ask your friends because they don’t carry that much cash, and no one is at your house to bring it over. You know how the money is moved around through the student store, and could "borrow" the money from the cash box until tomorrow, and nobody would probably know. How do you proceed?

Answer:

I can put a call through to the organisers of the trip explaining that I have cash but it's not within reach and that if they reserved the spot for me, they'd get the money as soon as I can access it. Given that I am a valuable member of the student store staff, that reputation should count in times like this.

To borrow money from the cashbox would be a huge ethical risk and can easily be termed mismanagement of funds especially where the store policy does not allow such.

My value in the store lies largely on my integrity and the trust they students have invested in my person.

I'd rather miss the road trip than make a regrettable unethical decision.

Cheers!

An automotive company was looking to expand internationally and selected three possible countries in which to build a factory. A
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The automotive company has run into bribery and corruption, one of the most common ethical challenges businesses faced today as they expand internationally.

Explanation:

As with the given scenario above, this company had three potential countries in which to expand their business of building a factory. These countries asked for an amount of extra kickbacks in exchange for helping the company run their business with ease.

However, in the business world, <em>kickbacks</em> are considered an illegal form of payment (or bribe) that one may gave as a compensation to an individual or organization with a considerable superiority and great influence in exchange for an improper advantageous treatment or service.

Such misappropriation of money violates the state or federal laws, which makes it a form of corruption.

Now, the automotive company from the given scenario had faced a dilemma whether to accept the bribe or not. It's a challenge for them as their decision might positively or negatively affect their business expansion.

interst expense      216 debit

  account payable         216 credit

--to record interest incurred--

Explanation:

As we use periodic system we calculate the inventory and COGS at the end of the period so we use purchase and returns accounts rather than adjusting inventories in every transactions.

In the second method we use itnerest expense when the discount is loss.

<u><em>interest incurred for the period:</em></u>

(12,000 - 1,200) x 2% = 216

The secodn purchase at the end of the monthcan be paid within discount period therefore, we do not recognize interest expense yet.

Ivan

Answer:

<u>Date                                      Purchases                    Sales        </u>

May 1                                1,550 units at $44

May 10                                720 units at $45

May 12                                                                    1,200 units

COGS                                                                  (720 x $45 = $32,400)

COGS                                                                  (480 x $44 = $21,120)

TOTAL COGS FOR MAY 12 SALE                       = $53,520

Inventory after sale        1,070 units at $44

May 20                             1,200 units at $48

May 14                                                                      830 units

COGS                                                                  (830 x $48 = $39,840)

TOTAL COGS FOR MAY 14 SALE                       = $39,840

Inventory after sale         1,070 units at $44

                                          370 units at $48

May 31                                                                    1,000 units

COGS                                                                  (370 x $48 = $17,760)

COGS                                                                  (630 x $44 = $27,720)

TOTAL COGS FOR MAY 12 SALE                       = $45,480

Inventory after sale        440 units at $44

Under LIFO (last in, first out), the cost of goods sold is determined using the price of the last units purchased, which means that the most recent (or updated) price is used to calculate COGS.
