Shirley's time sitting at her desk was interrupted when the human resources manager burst into her office with a particularly na

sty problem - customer service ratings had been falling over the last quarter. The human resources manager explained that rewarding high performing workers with bonuses would improve customer service. Shirley agreed and implemented a bonus scale that initially seemed effective, however the increased payout for bonuses meant there was less money available for offsite storage used by the IT division. Sadly, their system backup tapes would have to be held at the same location as their main system. What roadblock is Shirley confronted with while trying to identify the true problem?

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Pam and Lenny's Ice Cream Shop

a. The effect of the promotion on operating income for the second week of February is an increase by $350.

b. The promotion should occur.  The shop will make additional operating income of $350 within the second week.  And there will be spillover positive effects during the coming weeks after the promotion.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price per cone of ice cream = $1.60

Variable expenses = $0.35

Contribution = $1.25

Fixed costs per month = $2,200

Additional sales from the promotion = 650 cones

Revenue from additional sales = $1,040.00 ($1.60 * 650)

Variable cost                                     227.50 ($0.35 * 650)

Cost of promotions:

Giveaways                                        297.50 ($0.35 * 850)

Advertising costs                              165.00

Total costs                                      $690.00

Additional income                          $350.00

Melissa owns the following portfolio of stocks. What is the return on her portfolio? Stock Amount Invested Return A $8.000 17.5%
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The option c is a right answer.

Explanation:

For calculating the return on her portfolio, the steps is to be followed which is shown below:

Step 1: First compute the weight-age of each portfolio.

Step 2: Multiply the weight-age amount to invested return.

Step 3: After multiply the amounts, the expected return comes.

Mathematically,

Step 1:  Weight-age is to be computed by

= Each Portfolio amount  ÷ total stock amount

where total stock amount = $8,000 + $4,000 +$12,000

                                           =$24,000

For A = $8,000 ÷ $24,000 = 0.3333

For B = $4000 ÷ $24,000 = 0.1666

For C = $12000 ÷ $24,000 = 0.50

Step 2:

Expected Return for A = Weight-age × invested return

                                      = 0.3333 × 17.5%

                                      = 5.83%

Expected Return for B  = Weight-age × invested return

                                      =  0.1666 × 11.0%

                                      = 1.83%

Expected Return for C = Weight-age × invested return

                                      = 0.50 × 4.30%

                                      = 2.15%

So, the total return on her portfolio is a sum of Expected Return for A + Expected Return for B +Expected Return for C

=  5.83% + 1.83% + 2.15%

= 9.81 %

Hence, the return on her portfolio is 9.81% .

Therefore, the option c is a right answer

LO 8.5Identify several causes of a favorable material quantity variance.
yan [13]

Answer:

Possible causes of material quantity variance:

1. The use of sub-standard material

2. The use of unskilled labour

3.  Wastage of material

Explanation:

Material quantity variance is the difference between standard quantity and actual quantity used multiplied by standard price. The use of sub-standard material reduces the quality of output thereby resulting to unfavorable material quantity variance.  The use of unskilled labour also leads to unfavorable material quantity variance. Wastage of material                                                  due to low quality of inputs also results to unfavorable material quantity variance.
