Answer:

Companies have a corporate social responsibility towards their environment.

Explanation:

Corporate social responsibility implies that companies are expected to engage in industrial practices that would not result in harm to their environment. For example, the amount of carbon being released into the environment must be controlled as excessive release of carbon can be detrimental to health. It is also not right for waste to be discharged into the oceans because the health of the sea animals, the ocean itself and those who swim in it are at risk.

To promote sustainability, companies avoid practices that would eventually harm their environment. Abiding by these practices might take a longer route, but is eventually cost effective and beneficial.

Calculate the defects per million opportunities (DPMO) given the following: Blake, owner of Blakester's T-shirt Shoppe, keeps tr

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

His firm's DPMO is 12,083

Explanation:

The computation of the DPMO is shown below:

= (Total complaints ÷ total number of defects opportunity) × 1 million

where,

Total complaints = Shrinkage complaints + poor quality complaints + wear off complaints + fitting issue complaints

= 22 + 16 + 12 + 8

= 58 customers defects

And, the total number of defects opportunity would be equal to

= Number of t-shirts sold × number of possible complaints

= 1,200 × 4

= 4,800

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= (58 ÷ 4,800) × 1,000,000

= 12,083

Amanda [17]

Answer: c. Debt Service Fund and General Fund

Explanation:

The Sinking fund is a Debt Service Fund as it was created to retire some general obligation bonds. Every transaction that had to do with the retirement of debt as well as contribution to the retirement of debt would go in this account.

The General fund is also needed because this is the main fund of a Government entity. Everything that does not go through special funds is recorded here. This Fund therefore would show that the city made a $550,000 contribution to the sinking fund.

Answer:

Units to be accounted for:

Beg WIP 300 units

started 2700 units

Total 3,000 units

Equivalent units

physical materials conversion

tranferred 2,850 2,850 2,850

ending 150 150 (20%) 30

total 3,000 2,700 2,880

Cost to be accounted for:

materials conversion

beg WIP 0 576

incurred 0 10,800

Total 0 11,376

Equivalent unis cost

materials zero

conversion: $11,376 / 2,880 = $3.95

Cost assigned for:

Transferred units

2,850 units x 3.95 = 11,257.5

ending work in process units

30 units x 3.95 = 118.5

Total cost to be assigned for 11,376

Notice: Total cost to be asisgned for and assigned cost are the same.

Explanation:

1) We count the physical units

2) Then, we solve for the equivalent units which, under weighted average are:

transferred units + completion on ending work in process.

3) Now, we solve for equivalent unit cost:

for materials, this is zero are there is no cost associaed with.

4) Finally, we made the cost assignment which, should match the beginning WP cost and the incurred cost during the period.
