Answer:

It is difficult for new supervisors and managers to be promoted from within because adequate training are not provided. Most of the good habits that make up a good leader must be learned.

Explanation:

Challenges faced by new managers include:

1) Managing others while still actually working

It is important for managers to know how to differentiate between times they can focus their attention to employee concerns and times they decide not to attend to anyone and whether this is applicable to their team.

A calender will be needed for this type of situation.Schedule regular check-ins with employees, and block off times for you to focus on your own work. Unexpected and urgent situations will always arise, so you will have to add in some flexibility.

Resist the urge to make yourself available to every demand that comes your way.

2. Managing friends and former peers

When you attain the new rank of a manager, it is important to define the boundaries of your relationships with your subordinates as soon as possible.

Explain what you require from your staff and what they can expect from you. For your part, they will expect your trust, communication, and fairness, no matter how your relationship was defined before you were promoted as a manager.

3. Trying to make changes too quickly

First-time managers are always very excited to start making their marks on the organisation, but if you force too many changes at a fast rate, your staff may push back.

Take a collaborative approach on making changes to get the support of your staffs.

4. Giving direct feedback

A lot of new managers sometimes have a hard time delivering important feedback or having difficult conversations.

If you avoid telling an employee their faults and how they need to shape up, you might end up driving away others on your staff including your top performers by letting the problem spread.

It is also important to give positive feedback regularly.

Exercise 19-9 Income statement under absorption costing and variable costing LO P1, P2 IThe following information applies to the
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

When you are calculating variable costing, COGS only includes variable costs. All fixed costs are included as period costs at the end. Fixed costs are not carried forward either.        

             <u> Income Statement (variable costing) - J Cool Sky</u>

total sales $140 x 36,000 units sold =                                   $5,040,000

variable COGS                                                                        ($3,240,000)

variable direct costs ($60 + $22) x 36,000 = ($2,952,000)

<u>variable overhead ($8 x 36,000)                       ($288,000)                       </u>        

manufacturing margin                                                              $1,800,000

<u>variable administrative and selling costs ($11 x 36,000) =     ($396,000)  </u>  

contribution margin                                                                   $1,404,000

fixed costs                                                                                  ($633,000)

fixed overhead =                                               ($528,000)

<u>administrative and selling =                              ($105,000)                           </u> 

net income                                                                                    $771,000

In order to prepare the income statement using absorption costing, we must first determine COGS = [(total variable manufacturing costs + total fixed manufacturing costs) / total output] x units actually sold

COGS = {[($60 + $22 + $8) x 44,000] + $528,000} / 44,000] x 36,000 = [($3,960,000 + $528,000) / 44,000] x 36,000 = $102 x 36,000 = $3,672,000

          <u> Income Statement (absorption costing) - J Cool Sky</u>

total sales $140 x 36,000 units sold =                                   $5,040,000

<u>COGS                                                                                      ($3,672,000)</u>

gross profit                                                                                $1,368,000

variable administrative and selling costs $11 x 36,000 =       ($396,000)    

<u>fixed administrative and selling costs                                      ($105,000)</u>

net income                                                                                  $867,000

The difference between both accounting methods is that variable costing includes all fixed manufacturing costs during the period and the ending inventory is carried forward only at a lower cost since it only includes variable costs. Absorption costing calculates ending inventory using the total fixed costs, that is why COGS is lower.
