16. Your company has sold 80 ready-to-assemble bookcases to customers. You have noticed some disgruntled customers discussing this bookcase on Facebook and Twitter, but they did not mention a specific problem. For two weeks you have been closely monitoring these complaints and finally a customer gives the details you need. This customer says that the instructions for putting the bookcase together were not in the box.
After a trip to the warehouse, you confirm that this is a problem and stop all boxes from going out. You have instruction sheets printed and have them placed in a sealed, marked plastic envelope on the outside of the boxes, before resuming shipments.
Customer service pulls the contact information for all the orders shipped without instructions. How would you handle your response to customers? What would you say?

17. As the sales manager, you have eight sales associates and one administrative assistant working for you. You have asked your assistant to make the arrangements for you and your sales group to attend a trade show. The day before the event, one of your sales associates becomes ill and will not be able to attend.  
Your assistant asks if he may go with you. Instead of giving an immediate answer, you ask for time to consider his request. Having everyone out of the office at once is not an option. Who will take any sales calls that may come in? Your department's phones must be covered while you are all away. You have decided not to approve his request.

How do you reject a request? What should you say? What type of buffer can you use to soften the blow of the rejection?

19. Now that you have completed your PowerPoint slides and your presentation, is there anything that you would have done differently? Would you have chosen a different way to design your presentation slides? What advice would you give others trying to do a presentation?

20. Take a look at the variables of group communication: conflict, conformity, and consensus. Is there such a thing as healthy conflict? When is conflict in a team good, and how should a team avoid personal conflict?

Van Hatten Consolidated has three operating divisions: DeMent Publishing Division, Ankiel Security Division, and Depp Advisory...

Van Hatten Consolidated has three operating divisions: DeMent Publishing Division, Ankiel Security Division, and Depp Advisory Division. Each division maintains its own accounting system but follows IFRS.

DeMent Publishing Division
The DeMent Publishing Division sells large volumes of novels to a few book distributors, which in turn sell to several national chains of bookstores. DeMent allows distributors to return up to 30% of sales, and the distributors give the same terms to bookstores. While returns from individual titles fluctuate greatly, the returns from distributors have averaged 20% in each of the past five years. A total of $7 million of paperback novel sales were made to distributors during fiscal 2020. On November 30, 2020 (the end of the fiscal year), $1.5 million of fiscal 2020 sales were still subject to return privileges over the next six months. The remaining $5.5 million of fiscal 2020 sales had actual returns of 21%. Sales from fiscal 2019 totalling $2 million were collected in fiscal 2020 less 18% returns. This division records revenue according to the revenue recognition method when the right of return exists.
Ankiel Security Division
The Ankiel Security Division works through manufacturers’ agents in various cities. Orders for alarm systems and down payments are forwarded from agents, and the division ships the goods f.o.b. factory directly to the customers (usually police departments and security guard companies). Customers are billed directly for the balance due plus actual shipping costs. The company received orders for $6 million of goods during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2020. Down payments of $600,000 were received, and $5.2 million of goods were billed and shipped. Actual freight costs of $100,000 were also billed. Commissions of 10% on product price are paid to manufacturing agents after goods are shipped to customers. Such goods are covered by the warranty for 90 days after shipment, and warranty claims have been about 1% of sales. Revenue is recognized at the point of sale by this division.
Depp Advisory Division
The Depp Advisory Division provides asset management services. This division grew out of Van Hatten’s own treasury and asset management operations, which several of its customers asked to have access to. On January 1, 2020, Depp entered into a contract with Scutaro Co. to perform asset management services for one year. Depp receives a quarterly management fee of 0.25% on Scutaro’s assets under management at the end of each quarter. In addition, Depp receives a performance-based incentive fee of 20% of the fund’s annual return in excess of the return on the S&P 500 index at the end of the year. At the end of the first quarter of 2020, Depp was managing $2.4 million of Scutaro assets. The annualized return on the portfolio was 6.2%. (The S&P 500 index had an annualized return of 5.7%.)


(a)

For each division’s revenue arrangements, identify the separate performance obligations, briefly explain the allocation of the transaction process to each performance obligation, and indicate when the performance obligations are satisfied.
