PR 8-1b Evaluating internal control of cash            ObJ. 2, 3 The following procedures were recently installed by The China Shop: a.

At the end of a shift, each cashier counts the cash in his or her cash register, unlocks the cash register record, and compares the amount of cash with the amount on the record to determine cash shortages and overages. d. Checks received through the mail are given daily to the accounts receivable clerk for recording collections on account and for depositing in the bank. e. Vouchers and all supporting documents are perforated with a PAID designation after being paid by the treasurer. f.          Disbursements are made from the petty cash fund only after a petty cash receipt has been completed and signed by the payee. g. The bank reconciliation is prepared by the cashier. Instructions Indicate whether each of the procedures of internal control over cash represents (1) a strength or (2) a weakness.

Larry's Farm Equipment Store has been in business for several years. The firm's owners have described the store as a "high-price, high-service" operation that provides lots of assistance to its customers. Margin has averaged a relatively high 25% per year for several years, but turnover has been a relatively low 0.6 based on average total assets of $1,200,000. A discount Farm Equipment Store is about to open in the area served by Larry's, and management is considering lowering prices to compete effectively. 11.value: 0.83 pointsRequired information Required: a. Calculate current sales and ROI for Larry's Farm Equipment Store. (Round your "ROI" to 1 decimal place. (e.g., 32.1)) b. Assuming that the new strategy would reduce margin to 20%, and assuming that average total assets would stay the same, calculate the sales that would be required to have the same ROI as Larry's currently earns. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) c. Suppose you presented the results of your analysis in parts a and b of this problem to Larry, and he replied, "What are you telling me? If I reduce my prices as planned, then I have to practically double my sales volume to earn the same return?" Given the results of your analysis, what is the actual amount of increase in sales required? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) d. Now suppose Larry says, "You know, I'm not convinced that lowering prices is my only option in staying competitive. What if I were to increase my marketing effort? I'm thinking about kicking off a new advertising campaign after conducting more extensive market research to better identify who my target customer groups are." In general, explain to Larry what the likely impact of a successful strategy of this nature would be on margin, turnover, and ROI. 011

What are the other alternative strategy that might help Larry maintain the competitiveness of his business. (Select all that apply.)

During a Skype session with Jordan and Taylor, you mention that your current cost model in accounting is break-even analysis. They are not following your explanation, but they say they will swing by with some brownies for a discussion. More brownies! This is paying off, except for those extra pounds.

Selling price to Yumminess at $10 per tin. The cost is $8 per tin, which includes $6 of direct material and $1.50 of direct labor. Annual manufacturing overhead is estimated at $100,000 for the expected sales of 200,000 tins. Operating expenses are projected to be $80,000 annually.

After looking over the costs for manufacturing overhead and operating expenses, you approximate that 85% of manufacturing overhead and 20% of operating expenses are variable costs.

1. What is the TOTAL fixed cost?

2. What is the TOTAL variable cost?

3. What is the contribution margin per UNIT? ( Do not round)

4. How many units are necessary to reach break - even?

5. Jordan is concerned that they will not be able to sell 200,000 tins of brownies. Given 200,000 tins as their expected sales level, what is the decrease of total sales dollars that they endure before they incur a net loss?
