This is a much trickier question that it seems at first glance. In order to respond, you need to ask yourself two crucial questions. First, what does it mean to be a "modern" parent - what are the challenges that modern parents face that make parenting especially hard in the 21st century? Second, you need to define what "good parenting" is. What is the metric we use to define success as parents?

The responses to this question are likely to be quite diverse, but that's okay. An excellent response will address the two crucial questions, which lead to an answer that is supported by credible evidence (i.e. citations).

Instructions:

The Cash Budget

Once we see how the components of the cash budget are calculated, it is just a matter of putting together an entire cash budget. It almost seems redundant to say, but a cash budget includes only cash items. So if a company makes sales on account, those are not included in the cash budget until cash is received on account. Similarly, a company may have non cash expenses. These are not included in the cash budget.

A company expects sales of $100,000 in July and expects sales of $115,000 in August. The company provided the following information:

a. Sales in the previous three months were:

Of the sales, 10% are cash sales, the remaining are on account. The company experiences the following accounts receivable payment pattern: 25% in the month of sale, 50% in the month after sale, 20% in the second month after sale.

b. Purchases of goods are made the month before the anticipated sale at a rate of 60% of sales. Of monthly purchases, 25% are paid in the month of purchase, and the remaining 75% in the following month.

c. Wages for staff total $6,450 per month.

d. Telecommunications and utilities are $1,900 per month.

e. The property tax bill of $6,000 is due in August.

f. Insurance is paid quarterly at $1,200 per quarter. The next payment is due July 15.

g. Depreciation is $2,000 per month.

h. Advertising is budgeted at $2,000 per month in the summer months.

i. Professional fees (legal, bookkeeping, etc.) average $600 per month.

j. Maintenance is $800 per month.

k. Office supplies average $150 per month.

l. The owner took out a loan from her family and is paying it back at the rate of $4,000 per month.

m. The cash balance on July 1 was $2,190.

Develop a cash budget for July by filling in the following table. If an amount box does not require an entry, enter "0" or leave the cell "blank".

Question
One of the divisions within Forth Motors is currently negotiating with another supplier
regarding outsourcing component A that it manufactures. The division currently
manufactures 10,000 units of the component per year. The costs currently assigned
to the component are as follows:
Total Costs of
producing 10,000
units of component
A (£)
Unit Cost (£)
Variable Costs
Material X 120,000 12
Labour 100,000 10
Other variable manufacturing
costs (power and utilities)
10,000 1
Fixed Costs
Fixed manufacturing costs 80,000 8
Share of fixed nonmanufacturing
costs
50,000 5
TOTAL COSTS 360,000 36
The above costs are expected to remain unchanged in the foreseeable future if Forth
Motors’ division continues to manufacture component A. The supplier has offered to
supply 10,000 units of component A per year at a price of £30 per unit guaranteed for
a minimum of 3 years. If Forth Motors outsources component A, the labour force
currently employed in producing the component will be made redundant. No
redundancy costs will be incurred. Material X and other variable manufacturing costs
(i.e. power and utilities) are avoidable if component A is outsourced. Fixed
manufacturing costs (some of which are stepped-fixed costs) would be reduced by
10,000 per year, but the share of the fixed non-manufacturing costs would remain
unchanged.


Required:
(a) Assume that the capacity that is required for component A has no alternative use.
Should the division of Forth Motors make or buy the component? Provide clear
workings and arguments to support your answer.

(b) Assume that the extra capacity that will be made available from outsourcing
component A can be used to manufacture and sell 10,000 units of component Z
at a price of £34 per unit. All of the labour force required to manufacture
component A would be used to make component Z. The other variable
manufacturing costs, the fixed manufacturing costs and the share of the fixed nonmanufacturing
costs would be the same as the costs incurred to manufacture
component A. Material X used to manufacture component A would not be
required, but additional Material Y required for making component Z would cost
£13 per unit. Should Forth Motors outsource component A? Provide clear
workings and arguments to support your answer.
