Answer:

business rules

Explanation:

Business rules define how a business will execute a certain process. For example, establishes the conditions where products can be delivered without any extra charge or fee: if the purchase amount is over $500, or within a 5 mile radius.

It establishes the parameters at which the business will operate. An employee should always be able to determine if a business rule allows or not a process to be performed, no gray areas should exist. Following with our previous example, if the purchase adds up only $450, then a delivery fee should be charged, or if the customer lives 7 miles away.

In my understanding, this assignment wants you to evaluate the decision made by the management officer, in her attempt to improve the business position.

First of all, net profit figure shows the profitability of the business. Net profit figure means the total profit earned minus all the costs incurred in running the business. Higher net profit figure in year 1 might indicate a favourable position, as it could be that higher profit is generated from using whatever method/machine they use in year 1, or running this machine incurred less cost. In year 2, they didn't necessarily earn lower profit, but running the new machine might be more costly.

Next, rate of productivity growth refers to the growth in quantity of output produced. If more output can be produced, this means higher efficiency. This means that the efficiency of production in year 2 is more than in year 1.

Thirdly, the number of customer's complaints is important in evaluating the business' goodwill, in this case, its position in the society. Without good relationship with the public, a company may lose its customer. It is always important to keep clients satisfied since they're the source of income to the business. This means that the management decision in year 2 is more favourable than in year 1.

Last but not least, rate of absenteeism can be evaluated in terms of productivity . Higher absenteeism means lower productivity, lower output but higher cost to the business since they're paying salaries to workers who don't produce output to sell. Less output to sell means less income can be earned. In year 1, the business productivity is higher than in year 2.

In year 2, the business has a boost in their efficiency & reputation. Although less profit earned, it is likely that this will grow in the future. Staff attendance can be improved by encouragement such as giving incentives for example, provision of more holidays.

I hope this is helpful!

accounting A John Deere tractor acquired on January 4 at a cost of $120,000 has an estimated useful life of 25 years. Assume tha
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

$4,800 each

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for the first two year under the straight-line method is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($120,000 - $0) ÷ (25 years)

= ($120,000) ÷ (25 years)  

= $4,800

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life

Hence, the depreciation of $4,800 is to be charged separately for each year

Mallard Corporation uses the product cost concept of product pricing. Below is cost information for the production and sale of 4
KiRa [710]

Answer:

1. Cost per unit = 860,500/45000 units = $19.12

2. Mark up = 12% * 800,000 = $96,000/45000 units = $2.13

mark up = 2.13/19.12 = 11.14%

3. Therefore selling price per unit = $19.12+$2.13 = $21.25

Explanation:

Variable direct materials cost per unit............................ 5.50

Variable direct labor cost per unit.................................... 7.65

Variable factory overhead cost per unit .........................2.25

Variable selling and administrative cost per unit........... .90

TOTAL VARIABLE COST PER UNIT..................................16.3

TOTAL VARIABLE COST = $16.3*45000 units = $733,500

Fixed factory overhead cost $82,000

Fixed selling and administrative costs 45,000

TOTAL COST = $ 860,500

1. Cost per unit = 860,500/45000 units = $19.12

2. Mark up = 12% * 800,000 = $96,000/45000 units = $2.13

mark up = 2.13/19.12 = 11.14%

3. Therefore selling price per unit = $19.12+$2.13 = $21.25

Simon Corporation manufactures hydraulic valves. The product life of a valve is 4 years. Target average profit margin for Simon
Luda [366]

Answer:

Allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model = 52.4

Explanation:

Given that:

Simon Corporation manufactures hydraulic valves. The product life of a valve is 4 years.

Target average profit margin for Simon 20.00%

The company does not expect the manufacturing cost to vary over the next 4 years

Estimated sales volume and the unit selling price of the valve for the next 4 years is given below:

Year                  Sales volume (units)                   Unit selling price

Year 1                       40,000                                 $80.00

Year 2                      50,000                                 $75.00

Year 3                     35,000                                   $50.00

Year 4                      25,000                                  $45.00

The objective is to determine the allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model.

The Cost for each unit selling price can be calculated as:

= unit selling price - (Target average profit margin × unit selling price)

For Year 1

=  $80.00- (0.2 × $80.00)

= $80.00 - $16.00

= $64.00

For Year 2

= $75.00 - ( 0.2 × $75.00)

= $75.00 - ( $15.00)

= $60.00

Year 3

= $50.00 - (0.2× $50.00)

= $50.00 - $10.00

= $40.00

Year 4

= $45.00 - (0.2 × $45.00)

=$45.00 - $9.00

= $36.00

Year       Sales volume    Unit                Cost          Cost per Unit

                (units)             selling price  

Year 1       40,000          $80.00          $64.00       $2560000

Year 2      50,000          $75.00          $60.00       $3000000

Year 3      35,000          $50.00          $40.00        $1400000

Year 4       25,000          $45.00         $36.00        $900000

Total:        150000                                                    $7860000

Allowable unit cost = Total cost/Total number of unit cost

Allowable unit cost = $7860000/150000

Allowable unit cost = 52.4

Norris Company declared cash dividends of $60,000 during the year. Cash dividends payable were $20,000 at the beginning of the y
Schach [20]

Answer:

Dividend paid during the year will be $55000

So option (B) will be the correct answer

Explanation:

We have given dividend declared during the year=$60000

Dividend payable at the beginning of the year=$20000

Dividend payable at the end of the year=$25000

We have to find the dividend paid during year

Dividend paid during the year=Dividend payable at the beginning of the year+ Dividend declared during the year-Dividend payable balance at the end of the year

Dividend paid during the year=$20000+$60000-$25000=$55000

So option (b) will be the correct answer
