A few years ago, Ronald Montgomery founded Cultural Learning Experiences (CLE),
Inc., a small firm in Chicago that organizes and plans educational trips for faculty and
students seeking a unique learning experience abroad. At first, the company focused
mainly on organising these educational experiences in France and Switzerland, but as
the interest continued to grow, Ronald increased the scope of operations to include
many other countries, including Spain, New Zealand, Germany, and others.
Ronald has the help of Isabella Aubel (office manager) and two other employees that
help with the day-to-day office tasks. At the present time, the work processes are
entirely manual for this organization. With the recent growth in the business, it has
become quite challenging for the current workforce to manage all of this manually.
Everything is rather disorganized, with many mistakes being made with the recording
of important information regarding students and their scheduled classes and locations,
for example. Such errors are adding to the existing inefficiencies, thereby creating a
work. environment that is stressful and hectic. Even more importantly, customer needs
are not being met and customer satisfaction is at an all-time low. It is, therefore,
necessary to implement a database solution at the present time. It is important to note
that while Ronald intends to eventually automate all business processes, including
payroll and accounts payable, the more immediate concern is to make certain that
efficiencies in data storage are improved. The database solution should include a userfriendly
interface that allows for entry, modification, and deletion of data pertaining to
students, teachers, and classes, for example. Additionally, the database solution
should be designed to ensure consistency of data entry (formatting) and should
include enhanced reporting capabilities. Such functionalities should be considered in
order to resolve the problems the company is currently experiencing. The total amount
available to fund this project is $65,000. It may be possible to expand this budget, if
necessary, but the company is hoping that the project can be completed with the
specified amount. The company currently has only two computers, both with the
Windows 7 operating system and Microsoft Office Professional 2010 installed. The
machine is currently being used for electronic mail communications and simple word
processing and spreadsheet tasks. It will be necessary to purchase two additional
machines for this office, as Ronald would like all of his employees to have access to
the new database management system. Ronald is hoping that this database solution
will be instrumental in improving customer relations and employee morale, as both are
critical to the continued success and growth of his business. With an automated work
process, Ronald knows that efficiencies within the organization will be dramatically
improved.
Cultural Learning Experiences, Inc. is essentially the middleman between faculty and
students & international opportunities to teach and learn. CLE organises educational
trips/programmes for college students (to take) and college professors (to teach/lead)
in the USA and across the world.
You have been hired to provide them a mean to keep track of the classes offered in
destinations around the world, all of the students who sign up for a particular class,
the professors who are teaching specific courses, etc. You have several goals that
you want to accomplish with this database. First, you will need to keep track of all the

students –their studentID number, address, telephone number, e-mail address, etc.
You will need to keep track of faculty members and their contact information as well.
As students register for classes and pay their registration fees, the owners of CLE
want to be able to record this information directly in their database. An outside
accounting firm handles all of the billing processes. CLE simply provides this firm with
a physical copy of a report containing the information necessary for billing. (Your team
is responsible for designing this report.) All payments are made directly to CLE.
Beyond the recording of whether or not the registration fees have been paid, this
system should not be concerned with accounting practices. The recording of all billing
and payment details will be handled outside of the boundaries of this system. CLE
also outsources the marketing function and provides reports on a regular basis to an
outside marketing firm that seeks to inform potential faculty participants of the
educational trips that are available through CLE and to increase awareness in general.
You should design at least one report that would provide useful information to this
marketing firm. (You may make assumptions here.)
CLE would like the database to be password protected. Beyond the creation of these
reports, Ronald wants you to focus on making data-entry as easy and efficient as
possible for her staff while simultaneously ensuring accuracy of the entries. An
organised database, focusing on data-entry and reporting, is essential. (Your team will
need to explore various options within Access that will allow for this).

Monthly demand for a hot pizza restaurant is given as follows for 1 year (12 months). Estimate the demand including the next two months (13 and 14) by using Holt's and Exponential Smoothing methods. Compare the methods with MSE, MAD, and MAPE metrics, and discuss the superior method.

Use alpha=0.05 and beta=0.1 for Holt's model and use alpha=0.3 for exponential smoothing model. Hint: Level and trend in Holt's method could be obtained with regression. L0 in exponential smoothing is the average demand for the 12-month period.

Case 19-1 The Terminator Trans Ocean Shipping (“Trans Ocean”) provides domestic and international transportation and logistics services to customers. The company contracts shipping vessels, trucks, and aircraft to provide regional, long-haul, and international shipments of customer goods. Trans Ocean has entered into the following contracts: In March 2019, Trans Ocean entered into a revenue contract with a customer, Asia Manufacturing (“Asia”), in which Trans Ocean would be the exclusive shipper of Asia’s products between Shanghai and Los Angeles. Trans Ocean’s contract with Asia is effective on July 1, 2019. Before signing the contract with Asia, Trans Ocean did not operate the ShanghaiLos Angeles route, and to satisfy the contract with Asia, in April 2019, Trans Ocean leases a cargo ship from Heavy Vessel Manufacturing (“Heavy”), which commences on July 1, 2019. Because the shipping route is new, on July 1, 2019,

(1) Trans Ocean has no other customers to deliver goods on the Shanghai-Los Angeles route and (2) because of operational costs, Trans Ocean does not have alternative uses for the leased cargo ship. Trans Ocean adopted ASC 842, Leases, on January 1, 2019. The following are relevant facts about Trans Ocean’s revenue contract with Asia, and Trans Ocean’s lease with Heavy. Trans Ocean’s Revenue Contract With Asia • The revenue contract’s stated term with Asia is for one year. • Asia can renew the contract annually for up to four additional years. Therefore, the revenue contract can extend to five full years. • Asia pays a significant up-front nonrefundable fee for the initial one-year term; the same amount is due at the beginning of every renewal period. • Asia can cancel at any time without incurring a penalty outside of forfeiting any up-front nonrefundable fees already paid or owed at the beginning of the initial contract term and any and each renewed period. • Although the contract is new, Trans Ocean and Asia have entered into similar arrangements with similar terms and historically, Asia has renewed for one or more years. • Trans Ocean appropriately concludes that (1) the revenue contract meets the scope of, and criteria in, ASC 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers, and (2) the contract term for its revenue contract with Asia is one year. Trans Ocean’s Lease With Heavy • The contract between Trans Ocean and Heavy contains a lease under ASC 842. • Rental payments are at market and fixed each year. Case 19-1: The Terminator Page 2 Copyright © 2019 Deloitte Development LLC All Rights Reserved. • To mitigate risks, Trans Ocean negotiated the lease period and renewal options to mirror those of Trans Ocean’s revenue contract with Asia. As a result, the fixed, noncancelable term of the lease is one year, and Trans Ocean can renew annually for four additional years (i.e., up to five full years). Trans Ocean believes that since Asia can terminate the revenue contract after one year (even though Asia may need to ship products for longer than a year and has historically renewed under other similarly structured contracts), it is uncertain whether Asia will renew the revenue contract. Because of this uncertainty, Trans Ocean believes that the renewal options related to the lease are not reasonably certain at the commencement date of the lease. As a result, Trans Ocean concludes that the lease term for its lease contract with Heavy is also one year. Required:

2. What factors should Trans Ocean consider in supporting its conclusion related to the lease term? Additional Facts On December 1, 2019, Trans Ocean entered into a shipping contract with Eastern Manufacturing Company (“Eastern”) to ship Eastern’s products between Shanghai and Los Angeles. The contract with Eastern commences on January 1, 2020, and on the basis of Trans Ocean’s evaluation of its enforceable rights and obligations in the contract with Eastern, Trans Ocean concludes that term of the revenue contract with Eastern is for a period of two years. Further, Trans Ocean concludes that (1) because of its contract with Asia and Eastern, it would not be operationally feasible to deploy the leased cargo vessel on other routes; (2) the cargo vessel will have sufficient capacity to service both Asia and Eastern; and (3) the leased asset is needed for Trans Ocean to perform under its revenue contract with Eastern (because of economic reasons that would not allow Trans Ocean to use another vessel). Required: 3. Should Trans Ocean reassess the lease term of the cargo vessel? If so, why?

You have just been appointed assistant principal of Prominence High School in Exclusiveville. The school consistently scores in the top 5% in the county. The principal indicates to you she feels the performance of the staff is lax, and she needs your assistance in addressing staff shortcomings. Particularly, staff is showing up late to faculty meetings, leaving school early, not turning in lesson plans, and not maximizing instructional time. She wants to hear your ideas on how you would address some of these concerns. She also wants your opinion of the other assistant principals at the school, since you are an outsider and have no previous experience to draw from. She asks you to take a month and critique them, then report your findings to her. She requests that you take four months to “change the culture” of the school. She will make sure you have whatever you need to be successful. She also asks you to start running the faculty meetings. A month later, at a meeting with the assistant principals and principal, the principal starts the meeting with, “I asked Ms. So and So to critique you for the past month and report out her findings. Well, Ms. So and So, what did you find?” How will you handle this situation? What plan will you put in place for the staff? What plan will you put in place for the assistant principals? What information will you give the principal after you critique the assistant principals? Take me step by step how you will handle your responsibilities at Prominence High School.

3. Suzuki Robotics (SR) manufactures two lightweight robots designed for easier house-cleaning. The Alpha-ONE model is older, heavier, and is designed for carpet cleaning. The Alpha-TWO model is newer, lighter, and is designed primarily for wooden floor cleaning. SR produces the components for both models at its Indiana plant. Each Alpha-ONE model requires 5 hours of manufacturing time and each Alpha-TWO model requires 4 hours of manufacturing time. The Indiana plant has 2500 hours of robot manufacturing time available for the next production period. The frames for each model are obtained from a third-party supplier, who can supply as many Alpha-ONE frames as needed. However, Alpha-TWO frame is newer and lighter, and the supplier can only provide up to 350 Alpha-TWO frames for the next production period. Final assembly and testing require 2 hours for each Alpha-ONE model and 2.5 hours for each Alpha-TWO model. Maximum of 1200 hours of assembly and testing time are available for the next production period. The company’s accounting department projects a profit contribution of $300 for each Alpha-ONE model produced and $250 for each Alpha-TWO model produced.
