Answer:

d) $60,000 is released into working capital

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is the number of times that a firm buys and sells inventory. A high inventory means that the company sells its stock many times in a year.

the formula for inventory turnover ratio

=Cost of goods sold/ average inventory

If a firm has COGS of $800,000 and an inventory turnover of 5, then the average inventory will be

=$800,000 /5

=$160,000

If the firm improves its  turnover to 8, then the average inventory will be

=$800,000/8

=$100,000

The firm average inventory will  $100,000 as opposed to $160,000 previously.

$60,000  will be released to working capital.

As firms simultaneously downsize and face the need for increased coordination across organizational boundaries, a control system
ddd [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is boundaries and constraints.

Explanation:

One of the proposals offered by The Theory of Restrictions is to focus on the point to be improved and then we can move on to the definition of every day; a chain is as strong as the weakest link; Following this philosophy we must find what is the weakest link in a process in a company and improve at that point, remember that the speed of a process will always be the slowest process, creating a restriction in the process that can appear in any area of the organization.

The management model in conventional companies is directed at cost control. The Theory of Constraints teaches us that we must change the approach, we should not direct our efforts in cost control, but rather in generating money. To generate money you have to work with the client and depending on the client, but for that to happen we must prepare the company to be able to respond to that client, for this reason we must prepare operational models that are agile, flexible, capable of responding to constant and changing requirements.

  • consultant $1,694.73
  • computer programmer $1,539.68
  • administrator $1,945.78

Explanation:

                                           regular earnings     overtime    withholding  

                                                                                               allowances

Consultant                          $2,310 per week       N/A                3

Computer programmer          $30 per hour        1.5                  2

Administrator                          $46 per hour          2                   1

computer programmer worked 60 hours = ($30 x 40) + ($30 x 20 x 1.5) = $2,100

administrator worked 50 hours = ($46 x 40) + ($46 x 10 x 2) = $2,760

Social security taxes:

  • Consultant = 6% x $2,310 = $138.60                        
  • Computer programmer = 6% x $2,100 = $126        
  • Administrator = 6% x $2,760 = $165.60

Medicare taxes:

  • Consultant = 1.5% x $2,310 = $34.65

  • Administrator = 1.5% x $2,760 = $41.40

Federal income taxes:

  • Consultant: amount subject to withholding = $2,310 - (3 x $70) = $2,100. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($2,100 - $1,796) = $442.02                        
  • Computer programmer = amount subject to withholding = $2,100 - (2 x $70) = $1,960. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($1,960 - $1,796) = $402.82            
  • Administrator = amount subject to withholding = $2,760 - $70 = $2,690. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($2,690 - $1,796) = $607.22  

Gross pay:

  • consultant $2,310
  • computer programmer $2,100
  • administrator $2,760

Net pay:

  • consultant $2,310 - ($138.60 + $34.65 + $442.02) = $1,694.73
  • computer programmer $2,100 - ($126 + $31.50 + $402.82) = $1,539.68
  • administrator $2,760 - ($165.60 + $41.40 + $607.22) = $1,945.78
