Lakeside Inc. produces a product that currently sells for $57.60 per unit. Current production costs per unit include direct mate

Sidana [21]

Answer:

It is convenient to make the changes.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $57.60 per unit.

Direct materials= $22

Direct labor= $24

Variable overhead= $11.00

Fixed overhead= $11.00.

New costs:

Direct material cost= 22*1.2= $26.4

Direct labor cost= 24*1.2= $28.8

<u>I suppose that the selling price will increase by $40.</u>

To determine whether the changes increase profit or not, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin per unit for both options:

Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost

Actual Contribution margin:

Contribution margin= 57.6 - (22 - 24 - 11)= 0.6

New contribution margin:

Contribution margin= 97.60 - (26.4 - 28.8 - 11)= $31.4

If actual sales totaled $450,000 for the current year (30,000 units at $15 each) and planned sales were $540,000 (45,000 units a

torisob [31]

Answer:

Option B, $45,000, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Given actual sales = $450000

Actual units that is sold = 30000 units

Actual selling price = $15 per unit

Planned sales = $540000

Planned units = 45000

Planned selling price = $12 per units.

The difference between actual and planned sales due to unit price factor = change in units × change in price

= (45000 – 30000) × (15 – 12)

= $45000

Thus option B is correct.

What are the issues of integrity, ethics and law posed in the case study? What options does the woman have, and what should she

Dovator [93]

The integrity, ethics, and law issues raised in the case study are illegal and unethical conduct.

The woman must reject the economic proposal made by the company and maintain her complaint so that the executive is judged for what she did because she would avoid future harm to other employees.

<h3>What is ethics? </h3>

Ethics is a term that refers to moral philosophy. This focuses on the study of human behavior based on right and wrong according to duty. Contemporary ethics is usually divided into three branches which are:

Metaethics studies the origin, nature, and meaning of ethical concepts.
Normative ethics seeks norms or standards to regulate human conduct.
Applied ethics examines specific ethical controversies.

According to the above, it can be inferred that the situation presented is an example of an unethical and illegal act because the company and the executive want to bribe the employee to prevent the executive from being removed from his position and the company from being judged for endorsing that conduct of the executive.

Note: The question is incomplete because the information is missing. Here is the complete information:

Case study 4

A woman is sexually harassed by a top-level senior executive in a large company. She sues the company, and during settlement discussions she is offered an extremely large monetary settlement. In the agreement, the woman is required to confirm that the executive did nothing wrong, and after the agreement is signed the woman is prohibited from discussing anything about the incident publicly. Before the date scheduled to sign the settlement agreement, the woman's lawyer mentions that she has heard the executive has done this before, and the settlement amount is very large because the company probably had a legal obligation to dismiss the executive previously. The company however wants to keep the executive because he is a big money maker for the company.

What are the issues of integrity, ethics and law posed in the case study? What options does the woman have, and what should she do and why?

Lecturer Guidelines

Some of the issues raised by this case study include initial issues of unethical and unlawful conduct, by the executive and the company; whether the company should allow the executive to continue working because of the revenue he generates, in view of his propensity to harm co-workers, and whether this action is ethical or reflects integrity; whether the company should require the woman to state that the executive did nothing wrong as part of the settlement agreement; whether the woman should agree to this settlement in view of the harm future employees are being exposed to; and whether the woman is prioritising justice for herself over harm to future employees in an acceptable way.
