lawyer [7]

Answer:

                                                     North     West           South

Contribution margin           $300,300 $499,000 $399,200

Controllable margin            $139,700 $360,600 $209,900

Average operating assets    $997,857 $1,567,826 $1,499,286

Minimum rate of return             13%            14%           9%

return on investment (ROI) = controllable margin / average operating assets

North's ROI = $139,700 / $997,857 = 14%

West's ROI = $360,600 / $1,567,826 = 23%

South's ROI = $209,900 / $1,499,286  = 14%

residual income = controllable margin - (average operating assets x minimum rate of return)

North's RI = $139,700 - ($997,857 x 13%) = $9,978.59

West's RI = $360,600 - ($1,567,826 x 14%) = $141,104.36

South's RI = $209,900 - ($1,499,286  x 9%) = $74,964.26

(1) If ROI is used to measure performance, which division or divisions will probably make the additional investment?

North and South divisions should probably make the additional investments since their current ROI is less than 16%

(2) If residual income is used to measure performance, which division or divisions will probably make the additional investment?

All the divisions since their minimum required rate of return is less than 16%.

Nan has extensive experience in ergonomic product design. Though she is not a manager, she is often called on by product manager
garri49 [273]

Answer: Expert power

Explanation: Expert power is the personal power based on expert knowledge whereby the associates or another member of the company clearly have the awareness that the individual's skill and extensive experience will help in solving a particular problem or in decision-making. The person with such power is not necessarily a manager, it could be an employee who has the specialist abilities and proficiency that the others do not have.

However, this type of power gives the person holding it a high reputation and he or she gains some level of trust and respect from the managers, coworkers and the company as a whole.

sweet [91]

Answer and Explanation:

1. For computation of the non-controlling interest as at 30 June 2019 is shown below:-

Adjusted profit = Profit tax after the year - Unrealized gain in stock - Gain on machinery

= $200,000 - $10,500 - $10,500

= $179,000

Non-controlling interest as at 30 June 2019 = Share capital + Retained earning + General reserve + Profit of the year June 2019

= ($800,000 × 20%) + ($200,000 × 20%) + ($400,000 × 20%) + ($179,000 × 20%)

= $160,000 + $40,000 + $80,000 + $35,800

= $315,800

2. The Journal entries are shown below:-

a. Profit for the year Dr, $21,000

         To Stock reserves $10,500

         To Equipment reserve $10,500

(Being reserves is recorded)

Working note:

For stock reserve

Sale price $120,000

Cost $60,000

Profit before tax $60,000

Tax at 30% $18,000

Profit after tax $42,000

Unsold stock 25%

Unrealized profit $10,500

For net gain on sale of machinery

Sale price $80,000

Cost $60,000

Profit before tax $20,000

Tax at 30% $6,000

Profit after tax $14,000

Unsold stock 75% (3 years from 4 years)

Unrealized profit $10,500

b. Profit for the year Dr, $179,000

         To Consolidated reserves and surplus $35,800

          To Non controlling interest $143,200

(Being profit of expert ltd. is recorded)

Working note

Share of non controlling stakeholders = 20% × $179,000

= $35,800

Share of Giant Ltd. = 80% × $179,000

= $143,200
