GPS Tracking: You work for a midsize freight delivery company that has been using text messaging as the primary communication channel between drivers and the central dispatch office. Drivers send a message to confirm the time and location whenever they’ve made a delivery or a pickup, and whenever dispatchers get an urgent request from a customer, they send messages to the trucks to find out who is nearby and available. This manual system is clumsy and prone to errors, and the company’s owners want to replace it with a fully computerized mapping system that uses the global positioning system (GPS) to automatically monitor the location of every truck in the fleet. Some drivers are in an uproar over the plan, saying it invades their privacy by tracking their every move all day long. Should the company proceed with the plan even though some drivers object? What are some of the issues to consider here?

The Walton Toy Company manufactures a line of dolls and a sewing kit. Demand for the company’s products is increasing and management requests assistance from you in determining an economical sales and production mix for the coming year. The company has provided the following data:

The following additional information is available:

Activity-Based Supplier Costing

Clearsound uses Alpha Electronics and La Paz Company to buy two electronic components used in the manufacture of its cell phones: Component 125X and Component 30Y. Consider two activities: testing components and reordering components. After the two components are inserted, testing is done to ensure that the two components in the phones are working properly. Reordering occurs because one or both of the components have failed the test and it is necessary to replenish component inventories. Activity cost information and other data needed for supplier costing are as follows:

I. Activity Costs Caused by Suppliers (testing failures and reordering as a result)

II. Supplier Data

Required:

Determine the cost of each supplier by using ABC. Round Test and Reorder rates to the nearest dollar, and final answers to the nearest cent.

Delay in Posting of a Journal Entry

As assistant controller for a small firm, you are responsible for recording and posting of the daily cash receipts and disbursements to the ledger account. After you have posted the entries, your boss, the controller, prepares a trial balance and the financial statements. You make the following entries on June 30.

Cash                        1,430

Account Receivable 1,950

            Service Revenue       3,380

To record daily cash sales and sales on account

Advertising Exp        12,500

Utilities Exp               22,600

Rent Exp                   24,000

Salary & Wage Exp 17,400

          Cash                             76,500

To record daily cash disbursement

The daily cash disbursements are much larger on June 30 than on any other day because many of the company's major bills are paid on the last day of the month. After you have recorded these two transactions and before you have posted them to the ledger accounts, your boss comes to you with the following request:

As you are aware, the first half of the year has been a tough one in the consulting industry and for our business.  With first-half bonuses based on net income, I am wondering whether you or I will get a bonus this time around. However, I have a suggestion that should allow us to receive something for our hard work and at the same time not hurt anyone. Go ahead and post the June 30 cash receipts to the ledger, but don't bother to post that day's cash disbursements. Even though the treasurer writes checks on the last day of the month and you normally journalize the transaction on the same day, it is silly to bother posting entry to the ledger since it takes at least a week for the checks to clear the bank.

1. Recognize an ethical dilemma: Explain why the controller's request will result in an increase in net income. On the basis of your answer, what ethical dilemma(s) do you now face?

2. a. Do you agree with the controller that the omission of the journal entry on June 30 " will not hurt anyone"? Who may benefit from the omission of the entry? Who may be harmed?

     b. How are they likely to benefit or be harmed?

     c. What rights or claims may be violated?

     d. What specific interest are in conflict?

    e. What are your responsibilities and obligations?

3. As assistant controller, what are your options in dealing with the ethical dilemma(s) you identified in (1) above?

   Which provide stockholders and other outsiders with information that is most relevant, most complete, most neutral, and most free from error?

4. Among the alternatives, which one would you select? explain why?

After reviewing the following calculation, provide a brief analysis of each of the ratios. Also provide a brief evaluation regarding the company’s performance as it relates to the four categories listed above, plus the DuPont Equation. Finally, discuss how these ratios will help make appropriate financial decisions as they relate to the role as a financial manager, and also assist in achieving the firm’s financial management goals.

1. Profitability Ratios
   1. Gross Margin Percentage-

Gross Margin Percentage = Net Income/Sales

For 2018: Gross Profit is 58.26B, Sales 130.86B

Gross Margin Percentage = 58.26B/130.86B

= 0.44520861989

For 2017: Gross Profit 57.52B, Sales 126.03B

Gross Margin Percentage = 57.52B/126.03B

= 0.45639927001

2. EBIT Margin Percentage

EBIT Margin Percentage = EBIT/Sales

For 2018: EBIT Margin Percentage = 2.88B/130.86B

EBIT Margin Percentage =: 2.88B/130.86B

= 0.02200825309

For 2017: EBIT Margin Percentage = 23.45B/126.03B

EBIT Margin Percentage = 23.45B/126.03B

= 0.18606680949

2. Resource Management Ratios:
   1. Age of Inventory – Measure the Firm’s management of its inventory

Age of Inventory (Days’ of Inventory) = 365/Inventory Turnover

Inventory Turnover = COGS/Inventory

For 2018: COGS = 72.61B, Inventory = 1.34B

Age of Inventory = 365days/Inventory Turnover

Inventory Turnover = COGS/Inventory

= 54.1865671642

365/54.1865671642

= 6.73B

For 2017: COGS=68.51B, Inventory 1.03B

=68.51/1.03

=66.5145631068

365/66.5145631068

=5.48752007006

2. Age of Accounts Receivable

Age of Accounts Receivables = 365days / AR Turnover

AR Turnover = Sales / Receivables

For 2018: Sales=130.86B, Receivables=25.86B

130.86/25.86=

AR Turnover= 5.06032482599

365/ 5.06032482599

= 72.1297569921

For 2017: Sales=126.03B, Receivables=23.49B

126.03/23.49=

5.36526181354

365/ 5.36526181354

=68.0302308974

3. Age of Accounts Payable

Age of Accounts Payable = 365 / AP Turnover

AP Turnover = Purchases / Payables

For 2018: Cost of Goods Sold- 72.61B

For 2017: Cost of Goods Sold- 68.51B

Inventory Purchases = (Ending Inventory – Beginning Inventory) + Cost of Goods Sold

For 2017: (1.03B – 1.2B) + 68.51

=68.34B

68.34B/7.06B

AP Turnover= 9.67988668555

365/9.67988668555

Age of AP = 37.70705297

For 2018: (1.03B-1.34B) + 72.61B

=72.3B/7.23B

=10B

365/10

=36.5

In addition, you have decided to evaluate the Return on Equity (ROE) of the company by calculating the DuPont Ratio, including the Profit Margin, Asset Turnover, and Financial Leverage Ratios.

Year 2017:

Return on Equity (DuPont Ratio) = Profit Margin x Total Asset Turnover x Financial Leverage

Profit Margin = Net Income / Net Sales

=30.1B/126.03B

= 0.238832024121241

Total Asset Turnover = Net Sales / Average Total Assets

Average total Assets= 2016 Total Assets + 2017 Total Assets / 2

(244.18B+257.14B) /2

=250.66

TAT= 126.03/250.66

TAT= 0.5027926274634964

Financial Leverage = Total Assets / Total Equity

257.14B/44.69B

= 5.75385992392034

Profit Margin x Total Asset Turnover x Financial Leverage

0.238832024121241 x 0.5027926274634964 x 5.75385992392034

Return on Equity (DuPont Ratio) =0.6909406515199963

OmniSport Inc. is a wholesale distributor supplying a wide range of moderately priced sporting equipment to large chain stores. OmniSport has an enviable reputation for quality of its products. In fact, the demand for its products is so great that at times OmniSport cannot satisfy the demand and must delay or refuse some orders, in order to maintain its production quality. Additionally, OmniSport purchases some of its products from outside suppliers in order to meet the demand. These suppliers are carefully chosen so that their products maintain the quality image that OmniSport has attained. About 60 percent of OmniSport's products are purchased from other companies while the remainder of the products are manufactured by OmniSport. The company has a Plastics Department that is currently manufacturing the boot for in-line skates. OmniSport is able to manufacture and sell 5,000 pairs of skates annually, making full use of its machine capacity at available workstations. Presented below are the selling price and costs associated with OmniSport's skates.

Selling price per pair of skates $98

Costs per pair Molded plastic $8

Other direct materials 12

Machine time ($16/hr.) 24

Manufacturing overhead 18

Selling and admin. cost 15 77

Profit per pair $21

Because OmniSport believes it could sell 8,000 pairs of skates annually if it had sufficient manufacturing capacity, the company has looked into the possibility of purchasing the skates for distribution. Colcott Inc., a steady supplier of quality products, would be able to provide 6.000 pairs of skates per year at a price of $75 per pair delivered to OmniSport's facility. Jack Petrone, OmniSport's product manager, has suggested that the company could make better use of its Plastics Department by manufacturing snowboard bindings. To support his position, Petrone has a market study that indicates an expanding market for snowboards and a need for additional suppliers. Petrone believes that OmniSport could expect to sell 12,000 snowboard bindings annually at a price of $60 per binding. Petrone's estimate of the costs to manufacture the bindings is presented below.

Selling price per snowboard binding $60

Costs per binding Molded plastic $16

Other direct materials 4 Machine time ($16/hr.) 8

Manufacturing overhead 6

Selling and admin. cost 14 48

Profit per binding $12

Other information pertinent to OmniSport's operations is presented below. An allocated $6 fixed overhead cost per unit is included in the selling and administrative cost for all of the purchased and manufactured products. Total fixed and variable selling and administrative costs for the purchased skates would be $10 per pair. In the Plastics Department, OmniSport uses machine hours as the application base for manufacturing overhead. Included in the manufacturing overhead for the current year is $30,000 of fixed, factory-wide manufacturing overhead that has been allocated to the Plastics Department.

REQUIRED: To maximize OmniSport Inc.'s profitability, recommend which product or products should be manufactured and/or purchased. Prepare an analysis based on the data presented that will show the associated financial impact. Support your answer with appropriate calculations and strategic considerations
